I've heard there's a decline of girls in China so perhaps this will sell? I think it'd work fairly well, especially if they offer "expansion packs" with silicon upgrades or cleavage upgrades that cost a lot. Such an evil way to abuse the antisocial nerd's libido. :p

That's just low...luckily, we here at HLP would never stoop so low as to buy something like that. We're above that...right guys?

Guys?

sorry, you were saying something?

 I wasn't listening, you see, its my e-girlfriend's birthday today so I went out and bought her a $50 bunch of e-roses. But she was really happy, she told me that she loves me and sent me some pictures of her sister. I think its was totally worth it.

Oh sorry, I gotta go. She says she needs me to buy her some CDs, and after that I'm going to throw myself into a gaping chasm, cause the two braincells that I have left just concluded that, quite frankly, they're not needed around here, so yeah, my day is pretty much full.

Yea heard about this from a radio yesterday. It sure is evil but most likely quite profitable :p

according to the radio right now they're trying to decide on how requiring they will code the virtual girl.

But it may be encouraged by the success of a Japanese company that recently created a Boyfriend Arm Pillow - for women who miss being hugged by a man at night.

The product is reportedly a big hit with the ladies.

Some how I find the idea that Japanese women are buying disembodied arms even more worrying than the phone thing.

What, like the X-box,er, 'hugging' pillow thing (http://www.wired.com/news/games/0%2C2101%2C62176%2C00.html?tw=wn_culthead_2)?

At least that's a whole body. It's the whole disembodyment angle that freaks me out. :)

It is pretty weird, for people who haven't seen it, here's a pic:

In other news, a new virtual girlfriend program has led to a worldwide string of embarassing but painful electrocution incidents...

When they burn their genitals.  It's natures way.

'The company has plans to introduce a virtual boyfriend for women, although it remains to be seen how it will persuade them to spend extra money on the game.'

A thought occurs.....

Why would men pay to have a 'girlfriend' which is not only more demanding financially, but also cannot perform oral sex?

It makes no point whatsoever?

That's what I was thinking. I figured many men might take a quick glance around to make sure no one's watching, then take the old floppy drive for a spin.
