Guy Smashes Vending Machine To Steal Sex Doll

Vending machines can be frustrating things. If they’re not out of order they’re swallowing your small change and failing at their one job – delivering tasty treats.
You know how it is, you’ve made it through the morning and the mid-afternoon slump is looming. You head to the vending to a) have a little time away from your desk and b) get your Rolos.
Money in, code entered, the little spiral of silver metal starts turning. The chocolate is getting nearer and you start to feel slightly more positive about the looming afternoon.
Then, of course, the chocolate never falls. It gets stuck between the shelf and the glass, or caught on the spiral, or something so precise it seems as if vending machines could only have been designed like this on purpose, by some evil overlord with a vendetta against innocent people getting the snacks they want.
Then again, imagine you’re not just a mildly hungry office worker. Instead, you’re a horny man who has visited a vending machine in an effort to get an aid to relieve himself. Suddenly the word ‘frustration’ takes on a whole new meaning.
Well that’s what happened to this man from Yangjiang city in South China’s Guangdong province.
Footage shared from the 24-hour unmanned shop sex shows the man browsing the toys on offer when he finally picks out the ideal one.
Instead of paying for it, however, he decides to violently break the machine with a knife and take the toy.
At one point, he appears to give up after finding the task too difficult, but he musters up the strength to continue and breaks the plastic with a strong jab of his blade.
The man eventually rips the cover away and retrieves the sex doll before squatting down to stuff the toy’s lengthy locks of hair away into the plastic wrapping.
The owner of the sex shop says it is the third time his blowup dolls have been stolen.
Yangjiang police are understood to be investigating the case.
If you do decide to go down the less-human more-doll route when looking for love, don’t expect that to mean you can get it whenever you want, though.
A new innovation is currently being developed for sex robots to have the ability to say ‘no’ to unwanted human advances. Who is to thank for this new innovation? The credit would have to go to Spain’s Dr Sergi Santos – creator of the sexbot Samantha.
Dr Santos is working on a ‘dummy mode’ for an AI sex doll for when it encounters certain situations.
An example is if the doll’s sensors – underneath its skin – detects aggression or disrespect, it will instantaneously activate its dummy mode. Furthermore, Samantha will be unresponsive if it grows tired of her owner’s ‘attention’ – a bit like human relationships.
Samantha was demoed at the Life Science Centre in Newcastle earlier this year, where she demonstrated her ability to say ‘no’ to aggressive lovers.
Following the successful presentation, Samantha is expected to go into mass production, with a customer price tag of £3,600.
And they say you can’t put a price on love.

Love dolls have been the subject of exhibitions and the object of affections for a number of people around the world in recent years, and as their appearances become increasingly lifelike, they’ve come to be seen as more than just bed partners but life partners as well.
However, when a doll companion comes to the end of their life, what’s a caring partner to do? Now there’s a service that promises to put love dolls to rest in a respectful way, complete with funeral rites led by Japanese monk and AV actress Rei Kato.
The service is being offered by Human Love Doll Company, who believes “love dolls are born to be loved”. In Japan, it’s widely believed that all types of dolls have souls like humans, making it bad luck to throw them out with the garbage, so a number of shrines and temples hold services where owners can depart with their cherished dolls in funerary-like fashion.
However, given the stigma surrounding love dolls, there’s no such service for life-sized silicone companions. The disposal of love dolls is particularly problematic in Japan as large-sized waste needs to be picked up separately via pre-paid reservation with local disposal companies, and if they’re illegally dumped there’s a risk of it being mistaken as a possible murder case.
Identifying this void in the market for departing love dolls, Human Love Doll Company aims to give these silicon companions and their partners the respectful ceremony they deserve, with a choice of plans available.

The standard Doll Funeral Plan costs 50,000 yen, and includes a funeral and memorial service, with the owner receiving a a funeral certificate and a commemorative photo or video of the ceremony.
For those looking to send their doll to the afterlife on a budget, there’s the Joint Funeral Plan for 30,000 yen, which includes everything in the standard plan, only the ceremony will be conducted with other dolls at the same time, and owners receive a commemorative photo only.
Those who want to go all-out on their silicone partner can opt for the Doll Angel Funeral Plan, priced at 90,000 yen, which includes everything in the standard plan, but with the following additional extras: the owner can attend the funeral in person, doll parts will be disassembled carefully before disposal, a letter will be read to the doll, and a part of the doll will be sent to the owner after the ceremony as a treasured keepsake.
Funeral services are conducted in Osaka’s Higashiosaka city, and after their souls have been laid to rest during the ceremony, the dolls are sent off to be processed by a highly certified industrial waste disposal company nearby that have partnered with the Human Love Doll Company.
It’s not only love dolls that are being given formal sendoffs either, as ball-jointed dolls, regular dolls, stuffed animals and figurines are also being taken care of by the company, with rates provided on request.
It’s a nice way to say thank you to your cherished companions before sending them off to the afterlife, and as decluttering guru Marie Kondo says, it’s always important to say “thank you” to things before bidding them goodbye.
