Slashdot Mirror
Futuristic Sex Robots Now Just "Sex Robots"
High-C writes "With apologies to Futuristic Sex Robotz, the future is here, and her name is Roxxxy. Truecompanion.com has revealed their answer to the Real Doll, and it looks nice. The site is short on details, pictures, pricing info, but wow." NOTE: some of the above links are not work-safe, for many values of work. I stopped by this exhibit today at the AVN Expo (not officially a part of CES, but by curious coincidence scheduled to coincide; the old saw that porn drives tech isn't without merit). Roxxxy, though, was rather unsexily posed on a couch, not moving a bit — downright creepy, in fact.
I do not have a degree in english. However, I have read many books, and I write a lot (for money) so I know a thing or two about the subject.
You may want to reconsider your attitude regarding the readability of your posts. If you write something which no one else can or will read, you are wasting your time. You don't have to follow perfect grammar and punctuation rules for people to understand you, but it helps.
On the other hand, you do need learn to express yourself with complete thoughts arranged in a logical fashion before anyone will give you the time of day. How much work do you expect people to do to read a post on slashdot? If you posts are painful and incoherent, people will skip right over them. Do you think I read your page long comment at the beginning of this thread? Not a chance. I would seriously doubt anyone else did either. The only reason I read your other comment was because the other guy was complaining about it and I wanted to see it for myself.
So you say you know how to write. I'm sorry, but that was not evident from your posts. Why post things on Slashdot that are poorly written if you can do better? Why defend the writing in posts that anyone with a cursory knowledge of written english can tell are horrible? And why post them AC? What kind of feedback were you expecting?
