That’s needlessly insulting and condescending. Of bagpipers.

So far as I know, Scott Adams doesn’t read or post here, so this probably doesn’t fit in the thread, but I found his blog post yesterday … interesting. “Can humans and computers mate and have babies?”

His answer is apparently yes. I was skimming but it involves sexbots collecting sperm and, uh, analyzing(?) it somehow and then combining it with their own, uh, digital DNA (I guess) and creating a hybrid digital being that remains in a computer for some stretch of time, learning, before it gets uploaded into a robot and … I dunno. I didn’t make it to the end of the post.

It just struck me that I would definitely have found a link to it in this thread if it had been posted here. And the poster’s name would be familiar.

Is it possible that YOUR comment was made seriously ? 😃 Dude, I thought you studied psychology. You have a loooooong way to go… :smack:

( Also, in case anyone read the bands name wrong, it’s NOT Red Hot Chili Peppers, don’t miss them. )

The MRAs [are in favor of the perfection of the sexbot to replace women](http://www.returnofkings.com/41767/sex-robots-are-becoming-a-better-option-than-western-women). So a bit of a Sammy thing, a bit of a Lucy thing.

I doubt sexbots will get their own marketplace.

That would be great! It would weed out the assholes and save real women from having to put up with their shit. It would also leave more women for the good guys, and ensure red pill “values” aren’t passed to future generations. Win/win/win/to infinity!

You know why bagpipers wear skirts?  
So they can get into the ukulele concert for half price.

Man, [this guy](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=849987)sure knows a lot of Trump supporters and is always keen to rush over here to tell us just what they said. Not that these are his views - perish the thought! No, it’s just that [del]a big boy did it and ran away[/del] a Trump supporter said those things and what do we all think about this terrible, terrible thing that the OP virtually never comes back to discuss?

Of course they can - [here is a documentary on the subject](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demon_Seed).

😃 Yeah, that was the first thing that came to my mind, too.

A thing I wonder about: these guys looking forward to replacing women with perfect obedient submissive sexbots, doesn’t it worry them that replacing men would be even easier?

Not sure whether it’s the bagpipe in-joke or the ukelele in-joke that I’m not getting here, or both…?
