    Well, OK. The truly perfect companion to a lonely drunk is a sympathetic human being, but Drinky is a close second. It can listen to your troubles without judgement while occasionally nodding and giving you a thumbs up, and it can clink glasses with you as if you're actually drinking with another person. Even better, the liquor it "drinks" heads straight to its jar-stomach, which you can recycle, if you know what we mean. The bro-bot was created by South Korean inventor Eunchan Park who was suddenly struck by loneliness while drinking on his own in Christmas 2012.
