Sweet Dreams, America

When I came across this advertisement, my jaw hit the floor and my eyebrows shot a good six inches above my forehead, like I was in a Tex Avery cartoon. BOING!!! My eyes bugged outta my head and a nuclear cloud of steam plumed up out of my unhinged cranium. Could this be a joke? An April Fools Day prank? A SNL print ad? I had to look closer.


Sure enough, it is 100% genuine, and you can actually order one for your very own home. They call it the Quantum Sleeper (http://www.qsleeper.com/), and if this doesn't both impress and disturb you, then nothing will.



This is a real beaut, in my humble opinion. It solidifies my belief that the world is far too bizarre to be taken seriously, and far too serious not to make fun of. Personally, I am at once horrified by the state of paranoia we have obviously sunk to, and impressed at the level of capitalism we have acheived. I'm fairly sure that it is making both my Top Ten Scariest Consumer Products AND my Christmas lists this year.
