Japan Invents Internet Kissing Machine

[ItsAChiaotzu]

Point proven. Technological progress is powered by the desire for sex.

This is just absolutely bizarre. First off so you'd have to buy this crazy contraption and download kisses from the web? I'd rather have a flashlight in my house than one of those. Far less embarrassing.

Me too, however, having a flashlight in your house isn't embarrassing at all...

Not my fault. It's spell check.

Having a spellcheck doesn't mean you can't change it. Or just not use the word at all if you can't get it right...

Suffer from earthquakes and other bad stuff, what do? Make a device to allow people to kiss over the internet >_<

Clearly this is the best use of their time... clearly...

It does when the spellcheck changes misspellings automatically.

Its a rotating straw. Seriously.

 

[YunaX]

I'm so scared for the future.

 

[superbatranger]

Japan, you scare me sometimes.

 

[Grabbin Keelz]

I could soooo imagine this invention being used for sex.....oh the possibilities.

 

[Jjkaybomb]

That... looks like the last thing I want to stick my mouth on. About as appealing as one of those spinning lollypops, but deformed.
How is this like a kiss again? It seems really focused on the "tongue" part, not on the contact of the lips, which I think might be a bit more important to this bizzare kissing deal.

 

[iblis666]

not impressed, come on Japan I was supposed to have my very own sex bot by now what gives?

 

[jack583]

this could be great for long distance relationships.
if they could develop some method of remote control.

 

[The Random One]

Bah. Call me when they have a way to broadcast licking.

Yeah, or hugely weird. Take your pick.

I thought that the perception of Japan may have turned a corner, after seeing how their society dealt more admirably with recent disaster than some others, (general lack of looting and disorder, etc). But it only took a short time for these types of stories and comments to start again. Disappointing....

 

[PunkRex]

Yeah because the last time I was drinking a Coke in McDonalds I remember saying "this straws abit full on".

Still, it can only operate one way so you would have to take turns "kissing" (facial swoggling) the other person so this is just completly pointless... as well as stupid.

I mean it could lead to other things I suppose...

There are TWO types of Technology.

Good Tech: Space Vehicles, Medicine
Bad Tech: Kissing Machines, Captcha

 

[Biodeamon]

Quite frankly, i am not surprised. In fact i'm surprised they didn't think of this sooner.

 

[Speakercone]

You know that voice in the back of your head that looks at your ideas then says "that's silly, you're being silly. stop it." It's like these guys don't have that voice.

I find it endearing just how bonkers Japanese engineers are.

 

[Iron Lightning]

Ummm, yeah... it's just a spinning straw. Really, Japan, is that the best you can do? I am unimpressed.

 

[Bloodstain]

Well, for now it is just a spinning straw. We will see how far it will be developed.

Wow, yet another time to use this picture:

First the Miku Kinect game, and now this.

At least it's one of the times I can use a reaction image.
