Our internal e-mail lists have us discussing all kinds of stuff: Asian American identity, representation in the media, the experiences of activism in an academia setting and its progression as we transition to the working, adult world. And sometimes, we talk about Project Aiko. Creepy, creepy Project Aiko.
John: From CNN: Inventor Builds his own Girlfriend.
Jen: Will you get one, John?
John: Maybe I *should* get a robotic girlfriend and review it on 8Asians$25k spent on the robot…crazy.
Ernie: John, Just so long as you don’t describe how you got to third base with her. Because that’d be awkward.
Let it also be known that on Project Aiko’s To-Do list: #5. If I lie my head down on Aiko lap, have her clean my ears with a Q-tip. If by ears he means penis, and by Q-tip he means the silicone mouth of a robot.
What next?
