I Love the Future


No, I have no idea what the backstory to this photo is. Frankly, I could care less.

What I love is that somewhere, someone just saw that photo, gasped, and collapsed into a heap in their work cubicle, screaming "NOOOOOOO!!" as they, in one blinding microsecond of clarity processed three distinct thoughts --

a.) They suddenly realized that they had a robot sex fetish they were previously unaware of ...
b.) ... also suddenly realized that this single individual on this single day was probably their only chance at indulging in this newfound fetish they would ever have in their entire lives and ...
c.) ... they missed it.

    Oh, oh yeah, oh, that's good crazy. Oh wow. I needed that, thank you. You're a freakin' criminal mastermind. Wow, I gotta link to that ...

  2. Dude. You need to get outside more often.

    This one guy is not even close to being the only game in town. If you think the Robot Sex Fetish is uncommon, then I could show you things just in one zip code of San Francisco that could make the neurons in your grey matter fire so hard the CRT's in all the televisions in your house would have to be recalibrated after the magnetic hysteresis.

  3. I was going to say what s9 did -- hmm, "s9" is a suspiciously robotlike designation, don't you think? -- but you don't even need to go outside. Entering "robot fetish" on Google turned this up right away:

    With resources like these, I bet you can hook up with robot tail faster than Threepio can say "It's our lot in life to suffer." Though anyone hoping for a one-night stand with the robot Philip K. Dick might be out of luck...

  4. hey, if furries can find each other, I have no doubt that roboties can too.
    Actually, how the hell did these people find each other before the internet?
    Can you imagine being a 'furry' 20 years ago? I mean, part of you wouldn't even really understand what you wanted.
    And once you did, how do you ask?
    "Hey, I was thinking, maybe tonight, I'll wear this bear costume I spent 2 years making without knowing why, and you can wear this bunny costume I spent 300 dollars on, and then we'll have sex?"
    If the other person doesn't run away, they are definately a keeper!

    I think this might be a referecne to "Drawn Together" as well. Captain Hero had a sex robot on that show.

  7. Actually, true story about furry fandom.

    First off, the fursuits, the things everyone thinks of first, are a relatively recent development. For a very long time it was more about artwork and fantasy. And no, I'm not one, but, y'know, Some Of My Best Friends...

    Anyway, the fandom per se first started coming together right around the early 80s, via the pre-internet fandom nervous system of mail, zines, APAs, and of course cons. So all these lonely perverts discovered they had kindred spirits out there, and they all had as much sex with each other as possible.

    Then, a couple years later, word about AIDS started to get around, and it became the done thing to get tested. I am assured by fandom historians that the in-group humping was so thorough and variegated that, had even ONE of them been infected, they would all be dead now. However, and this is the important bit, none of them had ever had sex outside the group. It was a perfect, hermetically sealed sexual ecosystem. So the fandom thrives today.

    The really surprising thing about this picture is that it does not appear to have been in a Fark.com photoshop contest.

  9. John, it's "couldn't care less." Speaking of fetishes . . .

  10. That really appears to be more like empty cardboard box sex. Which is readily available anywhere.

    There's a SAVAGE LOVE costume in that photo. Probably several weeks' worth.

    Apparently his little robot fighter is named "Jack Daniels".

    The problem is... it's not just robot sex, it's FREE robot sex!

    There has got to be something subliminal about having a Jack Daniel's box right where you plug the groin attachment.

    But I'm too... distracted to think about it.

  15. So who's Robot Sex? Why should he be freed?

    Um, I don't think that's a robot. I think it's a dude wearing some boxes.
    He ain't foolin' nobody. Those aren't even particularly hot boxes. If you wanted to make a sexy box costume, wouldn't you use Victoria's Secret boxes or something?
