The saddest thing




These are from the "Accessories for Lonely Men", eight electronic devices designed to alleviate loneliness by simulating the—sometimes annoying—traces that one’s companion would normally leave behind. The collection includes a Sheet Thief, which “winds the bedclothes up on the other side of the bed while you’re sleeping,” the designer says. Other joys of sharing a bed are re-created with Cold Feet and a Heavy Breather that breathes hot air down the user’s neck. In the morning the Hair Alarm Clock swings hair across the user’s face to wake him, while the steel finger of the Chest-Hair Curler gently swirls his chest hair in concentric circles. Other Accessories include Shared Smoke, which comes into its own after a solitary sex act; Plate Thrower, a rapid-fire plate launcher; and Silhouette Light, which projects the silhouette of a woman onto the wall.
