When will they come out with a robot that puts the toilet seat down and gives up the remote once in awhile?

All of them active at the same time.

Y’know, from now on, whenever I’m pissed off about my job, I think I’ll remember to cheer up...it’s not so bad...at least I’m not a salesman for one of these things...(shudder...)

You’re HOW old, and you haven’t learned how to operate a toilet seat?

Great. All the future technology geeks will hook up with her instead of finally getting married.

After three generations, we won’t have anybody left who knows how to fix anything except for her.

Two points here...

Why is it incumbent upon men to put the seat down...why don't women share equal responsibility to put it up?

And more importantly...if they'd like, we could just leave it down and p!ss all over it...would they prefer that?

No... trust me, I’ve tried it and 100% of the survey sample did NOT prefer it. (N=1, margin of error zero)

She is wirelessly linked to the internet for software updates, technical support and to send her man email messages, he said

That is pretty fracked up right there.

Still, imagine if someone at CRU had had one of these.

Don't worry, modern science to the rescue ...

A male version of the doll, dubbed Rocky, is also planned.

this is not a problem in my house of boys... they were all taught during potty training to lift the seat when doing the deed, put the seat down and then the lid... flush... wash hands... the job was complete after they washed their hands... why most parents are just satisfied when their toddlers just pee in the toilet is beyond me... at least teach them the washing their hands step... i love that my boys are rough and tumblers with a touch of genteelity...
