Geez. This is pretty insane. At “Eden” in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan you can spend some “alone time” with your lady friend (or guy friend) in style. Within the 46 room motel, there is a room decorated in Batman decor! Everything from a bed sporting a cushy Batman logo to Batman logo etched mirrors, and even a couch decked out to look like the “Tumbler” from ‘Batman Begins’ and ‘The Dark Knight’. To stay in the tacky, but luxurious room, it will cost you around $50 for three hours. Now, you might ask why its rented out in hourly segment. Well, if you weren’t aware, like many motels in Asia, this room is more made for “erotic activities” than sleeping. For those that pick up a stranger at a bar and need a place to “get down and dirty”, Eden’s Batman room is the place to go. With the room, Eden also supplies you with lubrication, sexy lingerie and other perks for an extra fee of course. Yikes!

This is one of the reasons I was laughing so hard when people on Twitter were saying that they would love to stay there. I wouldn’t sit anywhere in this room without paper towels to put down for protection. Thats just how I roll.

If this Taiwan, you be dead.

Taiwan… Why are you so bad ass? In an attempt to promote and celebrate Taiwan’s Recruitment Center of National Armed Forces, Taiwan released a 60 second commercial featuring the country’s various armed forces such as the army, air force, and navy. To make it more interesting and “hip”, the commercial also features a ton of Transformer-like mechas. It is pretty obvious that this is a blatant rip-off of Michael Bay’s Transformers, but who gives a shit. I am only disappointed that the United States military didn’t think of this first. On a sidenote,  if Taiwan DID have a fighting force of mechas, would they become a global military threat? I think not. If these mechas are anything like the toys or electronics Taiwan produces, most likely they will fall apart and crap out after two or three days. USA! USA! USA! Hit the jump to see this crazy commerical!
