Default Finally! A girlfriend for Dowly

I can just see a conversation between these two....

Dowly: "So, do you like to play WW2OL?"

Robo-Kiera:" Yes. I. Love . to . Drive. A. Stug."

Dowly: "Giggity-giggity."

She is sweet. Never talks back unless asked. Is always willing and able. Never wants a commitment. Sure, she smells like rubber latex and sometimes makes a squeeking noise but how could you go wrong her? Some oil in the joints and a few batteries...talk about low maintenance!

I actually first heard about this on a late night talk show. If the Japanese advance any further in this kind of technology, I would imagine it'd be something like John Conner and Cameron from Terminator: Sarah Conner Chronicles. If you'd seen John around Cameron, you'd see he wished she wasn't a cyborg.

Yeah, good point. I wonder if she has an internal warmer or does she feel cold and clammy?
