Hehe...that's funny. I think someone has too much time on their hands.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

At least it's not one of those dolls. You know what I mean.

O.o;; that freaks me out

Postby **EireWolf** » Fri Dec 17, 2004 5:09 pm

That's quite amusing.

How sad!

*sigh* Another advancement towards a Ghost-in-the-Shell society...

Doh, pressed quick reply on accident, please delete.

Hmm...y'know, I'm desperate, but I'm not THAT desperate.

...gimme a year or two. :grin:

OK. How creepy is that.
You have got to be pretty desperate for something like that.

What is the world coming to.

I have one thing to say to anyone after that thing:
"Go court a real girl" then you can have a lap and a great wife.

That's really weird, and this is just about as bad:

*scratches head w/ a confused look on his face*

To be quite honest, those look very uncomfortable. Plus I wouldn't be caught dead w/ one of those... kind of sad. Plus, owning one is quite embarrassing on it's own. Also, I doubt that pillow will help the guys get a girlfriend, actually, it'll probably make their situation even worse. Probably freak out the girls more then anything else. *shrugs, while continuing to scratch his head in confusion*

Perhaps it's a culture thing. I can only hope.

Those Japanese...my my, they sure do take their innovation a little oveboard don't they.

Um....ahem, I wonder how much the shipping would be on one of those......................................huh I was only kidding.

XDDDDDDDDDDD Those are both hilarious... Women get arms, and men get laps... XDD

I think I need to head to Japan to find a girlfriend, since they seem to be so desperate. Probably better luck finding a soulmate over than then in the States.

These products are pretty creepy, no doubt about it.

omg that arm, and leg..... so hilarious! and creepy

Postby **Retten** » Sat Dec 18, 2004 10:48 am

That's very disturbing 0_o I feel sorry for the poor people that actually get one!

Postby **Hitokiri** » Sat Dec 18, 2004 10:48 am

That.s kinda.....wrong and gross. :eyebrow:

Rather than look at this extremely seriously from a social or moral perspective, I believe I'll just find it funny.

They're pretty expensive I hear (then again, everything is expensive there). Here's a thought for the guys in Japan actually thinking of buying one: why don't you take the money you could spend on a lap pillow, and buy something nice for a girl you like?

Postby **Mangafanatic** » Sat Dec 18, 2004 3:32 pm

Yeah, that's-- really. really. sad.

And equally funny. :lol:

Postby **Godly Paladin** » Mon Dec 20, 2004 1:41 pm

At first glance it's funny, but in another way it's rather sick, actually. A tip off is the 'detail' put into it. Disturbing.

I've got a dollar and fifty cents in the bank, just a little more and I'll be able to surprise Jonny on Christmas :lol:

dear me... o.O
well... heh... it was a creative invention, I will say that much...

Postby **Kaligraphic** » Mon Dec 20, 2004 9:56 pm

You know, the reason that guys have been having so much trouble finding girlfriends in Japan is that all of the women are dating their pillows. Now they'll never get together, and Japan's population will shrink even faster! Oh noes! Our grandchildren might not have anime to watch all because of these pillows!

(Well, it might be the unreasonable work schedules and the high cost of living, but I'd rather blame the pillows.)

In any event, I half expected this thread to be about the show Final Approach, before I noticed which forum it was in.

Postby **Aka-chan** » Tue Dec 21, 2004 12:02 am

I get it! This is all a really bad misunderstanding stemming from people not understanding the rabid ravings of the musical group The Pillows' fangirls!! Oh no! We must rectify this somehow!!

...

Or we could just laugh at them...

Choice C sounds good. All of the above.
