Going to the Chapel and I’m Gonna Get.…Vacuumed?

Sunday, October 14th, 2007

Looks like some of us will be marr­ying robots some day. I wan­ted to share my inef­fa­ble exci­te­ment with you, in the wee hours of the morning.

I’m naming mine Dorian (Grey).

My disease free Dorian won’t have to worry about that pesky aging thing either. Oh to be satia­ted by a robot, just let me bask a moment my sanguinity.

I do hope that Dorian does a bet­ter job of suc­king up than my Roomba does at suc­king dirt off my floor. Even though it’s likely Dorian will end up just like the Roomba, used only for enter­tain­ment pur­po­ses, I’m pla­cing my order now.

There could be pro­blems of course. I could end up with a demo­nic robot, worse yet a slat­ternly one. Rumor has it that robot fune­rals are cheap though so it really won’t mat­ter. This will be one spouse I can legally bury in my back yard.

This won’t be enti­rely new to me. I’ve dated a robot before; his name was .… I for­get. There is no doubt in my mind he was a robot though. That was my last foray into peo­ple who know my brother and go to the school of busi­ness. I’m hoping they craft my Dorian bet­ter than that.

Is there really a Uni­ver­sity in Maastricht?
