Ramble Strip

There's no stripping. (Sorry.) But there's rambling, usually in the area of science, politics, pop culture, signs that are irritatingly misspelled, and religion, or anything that happens to be on my mind at the time. I post on study breaks, so that I don't go insane. Insaaaaaaaane!

Creepy Lap Pillow

Mia mentioned this yesterday on Popgadget, and then I saw it again in the Odd category at MyWay this morning. This "Lap Pillow" has to be in the top 5 creepiest things I've ever seen.
Care was taken with details such as the softness of the thighs, panty lines on the pillow's "backside" and wrinkles in the lap of the skirt so as to make the pillow look and feel as real as possible.

"We thought our main customers would be men in their 20s, but even men in their 60s are buying it," Igarashi said.

At stores, lap pillows gather crowds where people poke and pry at the foam legs.


Scott, you are NOT getting one.

Ack.

Oh, speaking of Scott, he finally made a comment on my blog! Yay! I'm going to try not to explode.
