Boyfriend Arm Pillow

New bizarro pop culture genius from Japan: "He never snores, doesn’t hog the duvet and promises single women a sound night’s sleep. Japanese designers have filled the gap in lonely, single ladies’ beds by creating the Boyfriend Arm Pillow, a partner who will happily hug them to sleep — without making any demands. The pillow comes with two shirts in blue and pink, which can be washed and ironed to enhance that loving housewife experience. One model is also an alarm — the boyfriend’s body shakes to wake his sleeping girl." Photo.

UPDATE: The Boyfriend Arm Pillow has been around for a while. Mookie posted this photo snagged from store.yahoo.co.jp in December, 2002.
