Creepy/Weird Japanese Thing of The Week: Shiri, The Emo-Robo-Ass
Built by Nobuhiro Takahashi and his team at the Tokyo University of Electro-Communications,Shiri is the most advanced robotic ass ever made! At least, I assume it is.
I’m gonna be honest here. I’m weird, but I’m not comparison shopping the net for robo-asses weird. So I might be wrong about that whole most advanced robot-ass ever thing. If I am, well, allow me to go ahead and preemptively yield to your, no doubt, superrior knowledge of mechanized hind quarters.
BUT… DOES YOUR MECHA-BUTT HAVE EMOTIONS?! [There’s a sentence I never though I’d write.] Well, Shiri does.
That’s actually the excuse behind this particular bit of creepy. It’s about how the robot mimics emotions, with tactile transformations of… Okay…Ya know what; IT’S A ROBOT-ASS THAT TWITCHES AND CLENCHES ITSELF WHEN YOU SPANK AND TICKLE IT!
There, ya see what I had to write? Anytime the phrase, “Spank and tickle it” appears in any description of whatever the hell it is you’re doing, it’s not science anymore! It’s just… creepy.
I feel dirty again.
I’m gonna go now.

DICK PANTS
The mere fact that these exist means someone actually owns them. They may even be wearing them, in public, at this very moment. If it’s you, well, I hope you remembered to introduce yourself to all your neighbors, per the conditions of your parole.

Lightning Discharge Scar
Let’s be honest. Getting a tattoo used to mean you were probably some kind of bad-ass, non-conformist, super-criminal, or at least a carnie. But these days, it really just means you managed to get your mom to give you fifty bucks, and a ride to the mall. Seriously, my local mall just got a tattoo studio, no bullshit.
Despite it’s symmetry, and vaguely flowery appearance, the pattern seen on the arm of the man above is not the result of deliberate body modification of any form. It’s actually the result of a lightning strike.
So, you wanna bring the bad-ass vibe back into body art? I think it’s pretty clear what you need to do.

This Week’s Music Video: Nine Inch Nails: Gave Up (1992)
Since I’ve been listening to NIN incessantly again, as of late… And yes, that is Marilyn Manson. Way back when he was still surrounded by “spooky kids”.
Also, I feel old now.

Inflatable Superman
Well, if nothing else, ya gotta give him credit for realizing that this was NOT what he wanted to be famous for, and having the good sense to don a mask for the video.Well, I should say he had the good sense to don a mask in ALL of his videos. Ya, there’s more. In fact, I didn’t mean to do it again after that whole furry thing. But based on the content of his channel, and his username: Lovetoinflate, I’m pretty damn sure this is another fetish.
Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with people?

The most important part of running a popular and successful blog or anything that’s meant to be entertaining really, is knowing your audience. Now, I of course don’t actually run any successful or entertaining blogs, which is particularly sad given that I have four of them. But I do know my audience, you’re sick, all of you. Which, as I’ve said before, if why I like you. But it’s also why I suspect that many of you will already be familiar with this video.VERY, “familiar”…
TO the rest of you, well, just google “FURRIES AND PLUSHIES”, and prepare to feel just a little more uncomfortable around your friends who seem just a little too into their pets.
You can thank me later.
