"Maid in Japan" cafes treat geeks like lords
TOKYO (Reuters) - "Welcome home, Master," says the maid as she bows deeply, hands clasped in front of a starched pinafore worn over a short pink dress.
This maid serves not some aristocrat but a string of pop-culture-mad customers at a "Maid Cafe" in Tokyo's Akihabara district, long known as a Mecca for electronics buffs but now also the center of the capital's "nerd culture."
I'd love for them to bring something like that over here!

"At one cafe, maids get down on their knees to stir the cream and sugar into the customer's coffee.
At Royal Milk, diners can follow up a meal with a range of grooming services, including ear cleanings.
Maids at some of the more attentive shops even offer to spoon-feed customers at their table."

I'm not joking, but half serious. I have a vila, but not here in US but in Asia. And I do have cute maids over there - NOT these Japanese type. I only have a regular house in US, not a mansion

you're welcome to stay. I'd take you to places that you can get full LEGAL services like - feeding waitress, massageurs, etc. (none of those dirty stuffs) and you'd feel like a king. They'd take care of all your needs (not the dirty ones). My friend went there once and he said he was in heaven - such relaxation. He felt a lot better afterward. Those are good remedies for stress and stuff. But quite expensive though. Not as expensive in US, but about 2/3.
