  • HuskyPuzzle, on 06/26/2008, -0/+8Cleaning is one thing, but I don't care how old I get -- I'll never be down to have a robot give me physical exams. Would you put your nuts in a metal claw and cough? No thanks.
  • bstory, on 06/26/2008, -0/+7I want one too but can I get mine with a vagina?

  • tyshro, on 06/26/2008, -1/+5My 5 year old thinks that robots should do stuff like drive cars and wash dishes so adults can pay more attention to kids.
  • ChronicColonic, on 06/26/2008, -1/+5I read the headline as "The Real WALL-E: Cutting Edge Human Assailant". Who wouldn't have a need for one of those?
  • mulge, on 06/26/2008, -0/+4With this, who will need a home health care aide?

  • asskicker32, on 06/26/2008, -1/+5DAMMIT: I misread the title as "...Cutting Edge Human Assassin..." and got super excited.
  • louiebaur, on 06/26/2008, -1/+4That is really cool!
  • inactive, on 06/26/2008, -0/+3Welcome to 2020 even though that one robot was in a movie in the late 80s. So I guess we could settle for Welcome to 2008.
  • MrSarcasm, on 06/26/2008, -1/+4Was I the only one to read it as "Cutting Edge Human Assassin, uBot-5 "? And if yes, don't bother answering.
  • inactive, on 06/26/2008, -1/+4And where can I get one?
  • inodes, on 06/26/2008, -0/+3This is what happens when robots help the elderly....

  • asskicker32, on 06/26/2008, -0/+1wow. I need some coffee or a nap or soemthing. I misread this comment as "Ill never go down on a robot..."
  • inactive, on 06/26/2008, -3/+3Can they make it look like a hot women?! :-)

  • MattFid, on 06/26/2008, -4/+2I want one that smells like your Grandma. Mmmm....
  • tunafizzle, on 06/26/2008, -3/+1Oh I'll visit your grandmother, i'll visit her real good... with some flowers and my ***** AT HER FRONT DOOR. HA! After all, women love flowers and I'm sure the pet chicken could keep her company.
