"Special Forum-Exclusive Creative Content!"
 
   Well, OK, it's nothing really Earth-shattering, just a little filk I wrote in honor of R. Dorothy Waynewright and her sisters in synthetic moodiness.

----

One Saturday I snuck into a secret lab
I met a girl there she was laid out on a slab

Robot girl
Please look at me
Robot girl
What do you see?
Let's travel round the world
Just you and me robot girl

I switched her on and asked her "Baby can I be your man?"
She blinked at me and said "I do not understand"

Robot girl
You're in my space
Robot girl
Let's interface
And then we'll hack some perl
Just you and me robot girl

We went to the Harvard Square T stop
And heard the mariachis
She said "I do not understand this 'music' concept"
So I took her down to Newbie's and bought her some CDs
A bunch of guys with shotguns started running toward us
We headed for the T stop
The fire doors were padlocked
So she knocked down the wall

Later we were abducted by a doomsday cult
Their leader was a scientist and she was the result

Robot girl
This mystery
Robot girl
You are the key
Built to destroy the world
Yeah you're for me robot girl

We broke loose from our captors
And ran down Brattle Street
The cultist freaks trailed us to a donut shop
She laid down some kung fu hurting
And that was really awesome
She took a little damage but I know this guy who's good with tools

My buddy Jay repaired her, then we took her bowling
He said "What'd you pay for her?" I said "Nothin' man, she's stolen"

Robot girl
You look so cold
Robot girl
But your heart is gold
For you I'd fight the world
Just you and me
Their doomsday plot unfurled
Just you and me
Built to destroy the world
Just you and me
Robot girl!

This is true, but it's worth pointing out that R. Dorothy is hardly the only robot girl out there, and that "Robot Girl" isn't actually about any specific one of them. (I realized after I posted the song that I might have given somebody out there an erroneous notion of Big O's plot with the dedication, so, if I did, sorry.)

>2) Someone who needs professional help for their robot fetish.

Professional help hell, I just need Sony to hurry up and bring the development of the AIBO to its logical conclusion. And to get very, very rich.

Aye, I always suspected ye to be an honorable man. I was more thinking along the lines of "Sony, meet RealDoll, RealDoll, meet Sony." You've got the robotics and A.I. on one side and the convincing exterior on the other. You got chocolate in my--It's late, isn't it? I should stop.

(Before I get labeled sexist or as an Objectifier of Women, said doll company makes male dolls too. Just so you know.)

Last time I was at the site was over a year ago, and they were selling male 'parts' with the statement that full scale dolls were on the way. I just assumed they'd gotten them out by now.

"Fully functional."

Hm. Should I say it?

There's a certain market segment which does not find male 'parts' and female bodies incompatible.

I would imagine they might ruffle a bit at being called a 'market segment', but I'm sure they're out there, yes. :)

They're already build to order as it is. I suppose if you gave them enough money, they'd cobble together whatever you wanted.

::beats the idea of a female anthro-feline RealDoll with a stick and shoves it back into the deep, dark pit of perversion it jumped out of::

Still is a rather pointless concept without at least the AI, personality matrix, and basic robotics though. Silicon corpse otherwise. Eeegh.

Someone somewhere will get the idea to put robotics and some sort of A.I./S.I. behind it at some point or another. I just fear the in-between stage where they're more like 'The Hall of Presidents' instead of 'Blade Runner'.

No. Don't fear that.

Fear this: This concept has already been explored in a source that
everyone here will be quite familiar with.

Don't look at me like that. They're called 33-S boomers.

I prefer not to think about the implications of that, thank you.

Blessed be, and I'm thinking of sentient rights, not outraged
propriety.

That's OK, it's not actually about anything that happens in Big O. It was just inspired by Dorothy.
