MIT is so farking cool.

Does anyone know who I have to pay off to get in?

spooge_zamboni		2002-06-06 02:55:56 AM

Damn. I bet this takes off. But not for any of the reasons they think.

Phone sex.

Imagine these phones shaped like a donut.

That article is dated 24 April. I read the headline and thought they were doing experiments with amoeba and accidently got them excited...

Is that like setting your phone to 'vibrate'?

impaler		2002-06-06 03:06:04 AM

I think the innovative nugget that these scientists came up with wasn't the phone sex device they know they created. The innovation was thinking up what it could be used for that wouldn't seem perverted.

Nick Dark		2002-06-06 03:12:02 AM

I hear Richard Gere just prefers to set his Nokia 5160 to vibrate and go Gerbil-style with his "luv toy."

Tmreserved		2002-06-06 03:35:42 AM

Like hell you farkers are

Yammering_Splat_Vector		2002-06-06 03:36:51 AM

We're sorry. But your orgasm cannot be completed at this time. If you'll leave your name, number and a bar where you can be reached, we will get back to you.

Abzzstain		2002-06-06 03:55:47 AM

Holy god, that woman's going to be rich. As soon as some smartass kid from Pr0n State can get a license on the technology, lifelike hand-job phones will be spreading faster than you can say "1-900." The phone sex operators will get rich, but they'll all have carpal tunnel syndrome.

But think of the possibilities.

Telemarketer: "Hello, Mr. Wood. I'd like to take a few minutes of your time to tell you about Hornblovia Communications' new monthly calling plan ... "

Mr. Wood: "Hold on. Look. I'll listen to your shiat about whatever the hell it is, but I'm on a crank phone, if ya know what I mean. So you can have 10 minutes to talk, but ya better let yer fingers do the talkin."

Or this call:

"I need some more money."

"What, again? I just sent you some money! Now you need more?!?!?.... Damn! ... Well .... Hmmmm ... How much time you got?"

"Uh, I think I'll get a job instead."

Click.

I imagine it won't be that hard to convert it yourself. :)

RubberBandit		2002-06-06 06:16:24 AM

Can you feel me now?

LooseShoes		2002-06-06 06:27:42 AM

Sweet! We're one step closer to the Brain Storm machine from Natalie Wood's last movie.

Mr. Natural		2002-06-06 06:46:29 AM

Gives new meaning to "Let your fingers do the walking!"

Veritas		2002-06-06 07:00:42 AM

It won't be long before people are turning up at Emergency Wards around the world with these things stuck up various orifices.

"Well I was changing the light bulb in the nude and my phone rang and..."

LawnJockey		2002-06-06 07:32:58 AM

Have you seen my bleeper, darling?

nagrommit		2002-06-06 08:17:20 AM

"And imagine actually being able to shake someone's hand when you close a business deal," she says."

This is the best application for this device that they could come up with? She obviously needs some non-MIT TLC PDQ.

biggbossman		2002-06-06 08:32:14 AM

What an ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS idea!!!

bleeorg		2002-06-06 09:14:19 AM

You know what would really be Ironic?

If you were using your phone to masturbate and you call your boss and tell him you can't come into work because you're masturbating. Of course, your boss probably already has a "Sex Toy Cell Phone" and is using it at work, and he would say, "Why don't you masturbate at work like everyone else does?" Then you'd have to come in and work, knowing that nothing at work turns you on like the stuff at home, except for that girl Christy who looks like Denise Richards except with larger boobs, who works in the front office, and you have to pretend to fax something just so you can try to see down her shirt and get some masturbation 'material'.

rhiannon		2002-06-06 09:29:06 AM

Useless, yet cool.

sagacity		2002-06-06 09:31:17 AM

Buzz me up. Phone me over and over and over and...

sagacity		2002-06-06 09:32:24 AM

Would one need a phone condom?

Hizzout		2002-06-06 09:45:39 AM

This is beyond stupid.

JupiGirl		2002-06-06 09:47:10 AM

reach out and touch someone?

EZ		2002-06-06 09:50:14 AM

I live for Bleeorg's posts.

AnakinOU		2002-06-06 10:04:44 AM

DOes anyone actually hold their cell phone anymore? Hands-free is the only way to go...

Scoop84		2002-06-06 10:12:17 AM

Damn, Jupi, you beat me to it!

Romeo_Santana		2002-06-06 10:14:59 AM

USE A PHONE CONDOM OR GET "HEARING AIDS"..

Spackle		2002-06-06 10:26:20 AM

I would rethink about using someone's phone. You don't know where it's been.

fenester		2002-06-06 10:59:05 AM

snicker snicker...You folks are some funny bastidges today, looking in your direction Rubber Bandit, Romeo_Santana
Slayerswine...you are a bad, bad man.

Loose Shoes: I'd kinda forgot about Brain Storm. Give it another 10 years and we may be there. yikes.

bendu		2002-06-06 11:17:55 AM

JuoiGirl
You could reach out and fist someone.

ISeeYourDisease		2002-06-06 11:25:37 AM

L.A.M.E.

Death to the MIT demons!

loki see loki do		2002-06-06 01:02:38 PM

*sniff*
This phone smells funny.

devolmann		2002-06-06 01:05:51 PM

Romeo Santana ROTFLMAO!!

devolmann		2002-06-06 01:07:45 PM

davidv		2002-06-06 01:15:19 PM

Ohh yeah, this was funny, WHEN I SUBMITTED IT WEEKS AGO.

Anagrammer		2002-06-06 01:40:23 PM

Bleeorg:

There's one big danger to using this thing at work. If you want to find out, rent or buy "Keeping the Faith" on DVD, and check out the "extras" section.

Anagrammer		2002-06-06 01:49:11 PM

The funniest thing about this scene, is that Jenna Elfman is having a cell phone orgasm while trying to make her clients (in the room) think that her enthusiasm is for their idea!

i.am.madame.yes.		2002-06-06 02:02:43 PM

i prefer my $14 ribbed version..you cant talk through it but man it makes me scream!

RelaximusPrime		2002-06-06 02:33:41 PM

The possible implimentations are waaay better than the remote control vibrator that women can wear under their clothes. Man! Can you imagine calling your girl (or any girl for that matter) and asking how her day is going?
Her, "Bad."
You, "Oh really? Well put the phone down... there, and let me see what I can do."
Her, (as you do the french flipper trick) "Oh. Oh. Oh. Yeah, that's better. Oh gaawd yes..."

Best. Tagline. Ever.

latnerb		2002-06-06 09:28:33 PM

Is it just me, or did this already get posted? I remember reading this exact same article just a few weeks ago, and the article is dated from the end of April...
