Ryan Gosling wants to find a soulmate for his lonely Roomba

For Christmas this year, Ryan Gosling wants to get a Roomba for his Roomba. Because his Roomba is very lonely.

Gosling appeared on Ellen Friday ostensibly to discuss La La Land and his family's Christmas plans, but the conversation soon turned to what's really in his heart this holiday season — the overwhelming pity he feels for his cleaning robot.

"It works tirelessly," he said. "At night, I can hear it cleaning downstairs and I just feel bad for it. When it's tired, it goes home and it docks itself ... if it hits your foot, it acts ashamed."

If that sad story didn't make you tear up, nothing will. We hope Gosling's Roomba finds a soulmate — you know, just like in The Notebook.
