Our Consuming Culture





The Arm Pillow, and The Lap Pillow are designed to give that comforting sense of a loved one nearby while one sleeps.  In the case of the lap pillow, the loved on is kneeling on the bed.



But why stop there?




The Chatterbox: Produces a steady stream of feminine white noise on a variety of topics - your personal shortcomings, the tv show "Parenthood," clothes, relationships, and miscellaneous jibber-jabber - to which you can insert an occasional "yes," "uh-huh," "right," or just ignore entirely as you go about your day.





What's-That-Smell Air Freshener: Now you can have those comforting masculine scents around your house any time.  Comes in Gym Sock, Fart, and Unidentifiable Funk aromas.









Damn-It-I-Just-Cleaned-In-Here Personal Robot: A reverse-engineered Roomba has been designed to randomly strew soiled whitey-tighties, dirty dishware, and food randomly through the house.  At the touch of a button, it will apologize and promise to "do better," but then it's right back at it, constantly undoing your housework.
