Personally, I can't wait to have sex with a robot

I'm not sure about this - if you are getting off with a robot, is it sex or just masturbation?

It's SCIENCE!

I don't think you have to wait; it's kind of a fetish thing and already exists. No, I'm not going to find you any links.

It's just masturbation. Unless the robot has an orgasm. Then it's just freaky.

This is where the Turing test comes in: if you can't tell the difference, there isn't any difference. Suppose they could fake orgasms real well?

As long as they are not programmed to call my teapot 'puny human'.

I'm pretty sure that all "robot" means is a machine that can accomplish work mechanically.

But is it ok to call your teapot short and stout?

Mixed marriages never work. Some night you'd come home and find the robot screwing the toaster.
