    More of a LATEX-COVERED ARTICULATING DEVICE. Put it in the nightstand drawer.

    A Priest Bot? You mean, like a soulless religious leader incapable of true compassion? They've been churning those out for years.

    The fact that I feel compassion for this thing, a protectivness normally reserved for children and old folks, in and of itself, scares me.

    @Slyd3z: Yes, in the movies, there is always some well-meaning compassionate person (usually a woman) who leads to the destruction of mankind. I would be that person.

    Take that abomination off the front page. While I applaud the Japanese ability to design a robot capable of eroding sanity and inspiring fear at such a large scale, it should not be depicted on the internet where it can join with Conficker to create a technological terror of unspeakable horror.

    Well, while that may be creepy, what's even creepier is a Halloween with these robots dressing up like kids.

    Either the person in that video is extremely small, or that is the biggest two year old ever.


    Does anyone know if these robotic things freak out the Japanese? It can't just be us.

    Watching that video, I got the same feeling I get when I see someone in a wheelchair. The uncontrollable urge to knock 'em over and run.

    Well, you wouldn't need to really run, would you now?


    And now I must go hurt myself--I was going to reply to you with an unamused comment about being insensitive to the differently abled, but the joke came out of my fingers faster than the chastisement.

    @jerkyjones: Judging by the look of that "kid", I think it has been knocked over way too many times already.
