Genpets: the only bioengineered buddies.
Available in the one-year- and three-year-lifespan models.
-
They're a little tough, but if you marinate them first, the cook up real good.
-
un-, you've neglected to remove the packaging (again). I've been wishing something short-lived would imprint on me. :D I want an orange one, please, preferably with 4 blue LED's shining, as "Genpet™ life may vary depending on temperature and Genpet ™ freshness" is not a warning to take lightly. Thank you, bioengineers of the interweb. *sniff* *sniff* oh no.. do I smell vapour??!

Satire or no, that's pretty gross. Bioengineered pets can be just as cute as naturally evolved pets, in a possibly luminous, designer sorta way .
-
reflecked: better be sure that it doesn't get stuck behind the couch and die.
-
Is that from the promotion of some past film? I vaguely recall that name, a year or os ago...
-
Heh. Funny stuff :) From Whois, the website was created a year ago and is registered to Adam Brandejs, who seems to be a commercial sculptor and artist from Canada. He even has a MySpace profile :)
-
Ugh. I just realise that not only did my previous comment contain two smilies, I also included a link to MySpace. Kill me now.
-
"Satire or no..." Huh? You doubt that this is genuine? Why ever would you think that?
-
Lost my sense of humour - this sickens me beyond belief - okay somewhere here i had a satire bypass
-
Apparently, in person, you can see the genpets actually move - most sleep, but some twist and struggle against the ties around their limbs (and if you look closely, there is bruising where they are restrained).
-
"this sickens me beyond belief" ... little bit of an over reaction.
-
Flagpole, you might be thinking of "RePet" from The 6th Day.
-
How many holes do they have?
-
To bad they didn't give us pictures of "mature" pets. I picture them with Chia Pet plants in place of hair. I do hope they get better looking as they age. I though it was a nice touch that they offer full service and support, and that if you have a problem with your pet, they'll respond to email to the service dept. within 24 hours.
-
Reminds me of that failed Ripley clone in Aliens 4. "killll meee....pleeaaasse."
-
Check out the storefront. *suspiciously eyes the Toronto monkeys*
-
Oooo, little baby replicants!
-
Monkeyfilter: how many holes do they have?
-
National Geographic wrote an interesting article about this.
-
"this sickens me beyond belief" I don’t believe that. Unlike robots, you can have sex with them. (Still anticipating the arrival of “Suckdogs”)

MonkeyFilter: Still anticipating the arrival of “Suckdogs” Thanks everyone! Goodnight! Drive safe!
