i found this after reading an article on the BBC website about technology boosting emotional connections.

it's so cool! you hug one pillow and the other one responds. i really want one.

any other examples of things like this that serve very little purpose, but might make someone grin?

It's not a pillow for your butt.

A pillow for your butt? I HAVE FOUND A NEW NICHE!

Is that a niche in your butt or are you just happy to see me?

Wait, aren't these normally called cushions?
xpost - that thing is really creepy

But it's JUST like the real thing (if he'd been decapitated and cut in half). What's creepy?

I think those interactive pillows might just make me miss the absent loved one more. Do they escalate into signals for 'now I am wanking and thinking about you'?

YIKES what if the signal comes across as "now I am wanking and thinking of someone else"???

this is up my alley.

(haha I wonder if PinXor still wants that talking pillow?)
