I mean why shouldn't the robots be as miserable as we are?
HA!MAASTRICHT, Netherlands, Oct. 11 (UPI) -- The University of Maastricht in the Netherlands is awarding a doctorate to a researcher who wrote a paper on marriages between humans and robots.
David Levy, a British artificial intelligence researcher at the college, wrote in his thesis, "Intimate Relationships with Artificial Partners," that trends in robotics and shifting attitudes on marriage are likely to result in sophisticated robots that will eventually be seen as suitable marriage partners.

Okay, which snarky comment is the most appropriate here?
- Note to Sssteve: inflatable dolls are not robots.
- Luckily for C3PO and R2-D2, this paves the way for robot/robot marriages.
- This is old news: Bill Clinton has been married to a robot for 32 years!
