Why I want to be emperor of the world.

Wait! Pick me, pick me! I'm desperate too!

Oh wait... except for the wife. But hey... us middle-aged married guys wanna have fun too! Hell, even the old farts like Daniel seem to want to have some fun as well... I'm rambling, aren't I?

 

I have one of each. But its wrong to molest your pets, even if they are asking for it. :madgrin:

That's my happy, platonic, innocent, "do you hug your mom with those arms", kind of hug.

They don't have a smiley for the "other" kind of hug.

I am in denial.
:lalala:

 

Daniel, why the frowny face? There are many kinds of love and affection, no need to limit yourself to only the "sexy love" that we American's are so convinced is the only kind worth valuing.

Rarely has that been the venue for my most loving experiences.

I'm not discounting it, I understand the feelings of wanting something special and feeling a bit left out, but I also know that when I really stop to think about it, the best loving relationships I've had, are not of the romantic variety.
You yourself said that you are looking for something more.... so what is stopping you?

:hug:

 

They've had 'em for years. You inflate them, get personal, then put 'em back in the closet (so I hear).

 

I've rarely paid for it. But if I extrapolate the costs, over how often I roll in the hay, you are 100% correct.

Not around here it doesn't. For a real looker, perhaps $1,800. Depending on how little you value her looks, it may only cost you the Happy Meal.

Cha-ching!

Dogfriend posted the video of that realistic woman slave robot. Much closer to reality than you realize

I would insist on that, even if it was a hefty option charge

That robot woman is uncannily like the real thing, at least her/its face and her/its mannerisms. For some reason, the video didn't show the "other" parts

If I had to guess, that baby (He he he pardon the pun) probably cost $1 mil or more, as a prototype. But if they could crank out robot anatomically correct slave women for, say, $30 G's, they'd have NO PROBLEM selling out production

Um ... two please!

Perhaps even a 2 cycle powered portable model for when you're camping. Like this Boston Dynamics prototype, only human shaped and not quite as creepy

Once they get intelligent, we're doomed. Doomed I say

Clearly, the broads are WAY overpriced where you live

Oh. I see. Well, this is clearly a misunderstanding then. You don't want a woman, you want one of these



Or a puppy, if you have the room

But if, as you claim, truly want affection, in a 100% non-judgmental way, you're aiming for a PET, not a person. What, you don't think a PERSON could provide the same unconditional affection, do you?

ound:

Oh stop, you're killing me!

Don't worry, I'm laughing WITH you, not AT you

Not THIS happily single guy!

All depends on what country you live in and/or are working in. For example, every time I was in India, men were holding hands walking down the street, and even Yours Truly was offered a hug by the male host

These men were happily married, and their wives assured me that is was just the custom. I was more shocked then offended at first, but quickly got used to it

SSHHHHHH!! You're giving away Top Secret Information to "the other side." They'd become insanely jealous if they knew just how easily we could amuse ourselves

Get in line, pal. It's a matter of public record I was the first PriusChatter to offer him Bear Hug

Daniel: and that's all you'd be getting too

What really surprises me is the street I live on, many of the middle aged - my age that is - married women feel the same way. Let the games begin!

Dogfriend posted that video of the uncannily realistic robot woman from Japan. Even better then shoving them back into the closet, is the Off button!

May not be a bad idea to pre-order with Hitachi Industrial

 

The Boston Dynamics "Big Dog" should be renamed "Big Housefly". And its way too creepy.

 

The Boston Dynamics "Big Dog" is way cool, especially the "pig on ice,"
massive kick from the side, and playful jumping sequences...
real-time balance retention and recovery.

I take it that is has some kind of visual inputs, probably separate inputs
between the paired front and rear legs, for precise foot placements as
seen on the pile of cinder blocks. Come to think of it the "front" and "rear"
legs look identical. I wonder if it is fully bi-directional.

The key question is, Can it walk on water?

 

Anybody can do that. It just has to be the right temperature.
As cool as that robot is, and not to belittle the accomplishment, but it's a poor substitute for a real dog.

 

Have you seen Jayman? They would do him for free, just hoping he wouldn't cut them up into little pieces and stuff them into an old trunk.

There is a line by Jeff Goldblum's character in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_Chill_%28film%29:

Basically, everyone does everything in order to get laid.

 

How true. When I used to work on retail POS systems, one of my former clients owned several very successful gift shops in a tourist town. Most of the merchandise was directed at women. He explained this to me as follows: "Women on vacation like to shop. All men want to do is get laid. Happy women make for happy men."

I have no doubt they are working on that feature. It would have limited combat effectiveness if it couldn't ford through a couple feet of water

They must belong to a union or something up here. Unless you had open festering sores, a standard rate applies

I made a choice to travel less and work from the home more, to be with my companions more. It has worked out for everybody concerned

Hey pal, you DID bring it up ...

Oy ....

:doh:

I'm pretty sure that was how my dad explained The Facts Of Life to me when I was a kid

 

Attractiveness is NOT predominantly determined by genetics. I have seen really genetically handsome men that I feel absolutely no attraction to whatsoever.

Most women find certain character traits attractive. The short list:
Intelligent, accomplished (can be tons of bucks, big house and cars, or a life time activist depending on the values of the perceiver), healthy, strength of character, confidence, sense of humor (a sign of intelligence) good provider. (All things that make good daddies)

Men find things like health, vitality, nurturing qualities, youth, and intelligence attractive. (All things that make good mommies)

How a person takes care of what they have been given genetically plays a much bigger part than the specific genetics.

There are components to the genetics but by and large we are attracted to how a person deals with what is dealt, not what is dealt.

Now, in a feeble attempt to appear as though I am trying to get back to topic, all this applies to emperors too!

HeHehe... I can just see it now:
Dorothy Hammel and DARMA on ICE at an arena near you.
Brought to you by the Dept. of Homeland Security, bring the kids.

In the first few sequences of the YouTube flick, where it was difficult
to estimate the size of this thing, I could see it as a dog surrogate. But
in later sequences where humans are present, the Big Dog is more the
size of a donkey or burro. Which given its load capacity, IIRC 340 lbs,
would be a better starting point for a name; Robo-Burro.

I suppose though that the builders are really trying to build a dog
surrogate and all that remains is to minuraturize/micro-minuraturize
the components to get the prototype first down to retriever size and
finally to chihuahua size.

Points well taken Octavia. There was once a thread here on what men & women look for ....

Maybe in the "Prius Roles" thread, you can be appointed as Sexual Advisor
