Desperately seeking neckache

From MSNBC - Women snuggle up with 'Boyfriend's Arm'
"A new product on the Japanese market has been designed for the single girl in need of some manly comfort while she sleeps."

Actually I suspect the real audience is girlfriend/wives of travelling men, who need the status quo to nod off. Single gals need a extention to the bed where they can place visitors so they can return their spread-eagle-diagonal-take-up the-entire-bed-through-sheer-force-of-cold-feet.

Happy friday!

So sorry, you have been taken in by MSNBC ripoff of well-known Japanese art of Chindogu. These inventions are... shall we say...
un-useless? Why do they not tell you of all of them? There are hundreds.

ISBN=0393317439
ISBN=0393313697

Please join in a flight of fancy.
