Man Brings Fembot Home at Christmas to Meet His Parents

By John Farrier in Science & Tech on Dec 28, 2009 at 10:25 pm

Christmas is all about awkward moments at family gatherings. Le Trung, inventor of the robotic woman substitute Aiko, took that principle to a whole new level when he decided that he should celebrate Christmas with both his parents and his fembot:

The science genius enjoyed a festive dinner with his mum, dad and his £30,000 fembot which he designed and built by hand.

Le, 34, from Brampton, Ontario, Canada, even bought gifts for his dream girl, who is so lifelike she speaks fluent English and Japanese, helped cook the turkey and hang up decorations.

‘Aiko is like any woman, she enjoys getting new clothes,’ he said.

‘I loved buying them for her too.’

There was a really sad twilight zone episode of a fembot once…

I’m a complete socially disastrous nerd.

Because I’m a nerd, my main pastime is to build ever better robots and squander all my cash on that instead of once in a healthy while mingle with reallife poeple in bars and clubs.

Becasue I’m a nerd and I never go to public places I’m a bit lonely and so I keep on building robots.

Because I only build robots, it never has crossed my mind to use some form of social internetworks or even to try to find internet-girlfriends.

But because I’ve become quite good at buiding robots and I really haven’t got a single clue on how females would function apart from a “mother” (…), I’ve decided that I know eough about young human females to build one myself!!!

…And so I stuffed her silicon brain with uptime languages and a whole Wiki on knowledge like I’ve heardd my mother talk about. Walking and moving is ba bit of a problem yet, but hey some extraprogramming and some extra-fast servo’s will solve that over time.

So now I can present her to dad and mom. Móm!!!! meet my new girlfriend Aiko!!!! “Why Son…! We didn’t think you had it in you to find a girlfriend- Wére só proud of you…! ” – Oh just a minute- …switch her on…………………..

Okay- I’m married already for some decades. But if I were in his shoes- …. I’d personally rather die poor and virgin in a monastery than such a shame……..
