Cyber Love?

My goal with this blog is to write an entry every day. That's not so easy, however, because some days I just have nothing to say. A few minutes ago, I was sitting at my computer, trying to think of a blog topic. I was having little success, so I began browsing Facebook; I then came across an add titled "Create Your Mr. Right."

The tagline for this add was, "Why look for Mr. Right when you can make him yourself? Design your Mr. Right now and start your virtual relationship." Now I know that we are supposed to be embracing the virtual era and taking advantage of all that computers have to offer, but to a girl who thought Match.com was weird, the concept of creating a "virtual relationship" is just plain disturbing.

The advertisement goes on to say, "Describe what you like in a guy and get your very own Mr. Right; a virtual boyfriend to keep you cozy on all those lonely nights." Am I the only one who thinks the creator of this website was insane? There can't possibly be a market out there for something like this... Right? It's not as if a cartoon boy, controlled by a computer, can really keep someone cozy on a lonely night... Right? Feel free to disagree with me, but that will probably freak me out.
