I barely know where to begin trying to describe the curious nature and depressing subtext of this item, so I guess I better shut up and let you try and figure it out:
Here it is.
Slowly Going Bald
"Look, we're gonna spend half the night driving around the Hills looking for this one party, and you're gonna say it sucks, and we're all gonna leave and we're gonna go look for this other party. But all the parties and all the bars, they all suck. I spend half the night talking to some girl who's looking around the room to see if there's someone who's more important she should be talking to, and it's like I'm supposed to be all happy 'cause she's wearing a backpack."

Melanie, an even funnier scenario would be if the man started out with the pillow. "Honey, I got you a present! Unfortunately, I have some bad news..."
As a woman who spends every night with a man, I have to say the nook is nice. But a fake nook? I don't think I could go there.

It just seems like there should be a sound chip built in, so that while you lay there it says things like "I value your opinion," "You're wonderful the way you are," "You don't need to change and develop socialization skills to become normal, just cuddle my plastic and nonjudgemental arm," etc.

Is it absorbant for the ensuing tears that will come knowing that you're 30 something and have to snuggle up to a prosthetic dude?

Yes it is, according to the website. I also think that the shirt pocket on the front of the pillow is big enough to hold 2 seasons of Sex and the City DVDs and a lifetime's worth of self-loathing. That's a bargain.

...a stone, a leaf, an unfound door; of a stone, a leaf, a door. And of all the forgotten faces....
O waste of loss, in the hot mazes, lost, among bright stars on this most weary unbright cinder, lost! Remembering speechlessly we seek the great forgotten language, the lost lane-end into heaven, a stone, a leaf, an unfound door. Where? When?
O lost, and by the wind grieved, ghost, come back again.

Conservatives are not necessarily stupid, but most stupid people are conservatives.
--John Stuart Mill
We have all read in scientific books, and indeed, in all romances, the story of the man who has forgotten his name. This man walks about the streets and can see and appreciate everything; only he cannot remember who he is. Well, every man is that man in the story. Every man has forgotten who he is. One may understand the cosmos, but never the ego; the self is more distant than any star. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God; but thou shalt not know thyself. We are all under the same mental calamity; we have all forgotten our names. We have all forgotten what we really are. All that we call common sense and rationality and practicality and positivism only means that for certain dead levels of our life we forget that we have forgotten. All that we call spirit and art and ecstasy only means that for one awful instant we remember that we forget.
--G.K. Chesterton
We were, for the briefest of moments, something greater than the sum of our uncertain parts; we were youth itself, in all its painful glory and sharp joy.
