Seriously. What are we doing as a species? I have to ask myself that when I see “gifts” like this available to buy around this time of the year. The Make-Out Practice Pillow arrives just in time for Valentine’s Day and is supposed to be the solution for anyone looking to perfect their kissing technique!!
Florida designer Emily King said the pillows, which come with the lips of a CPR dummy sewn into the centre (honestly, deadly serious here), could be beneficial for both lonely hearts and inexperienced kissers.
‘As we neared closer to Valentine’s Day I knew the time had come – pillows you could make-out with, but I have to admit that when I mentioned this idea to my friends, the reaction from anyone over the age of 25 tended to be variations on “that’s really creepy”.
‘Anyone under the age of 25 thought it was hilarious and awesome: middle-school to college-age seemed to be the sweet spot of people who really liked the idea. I thought it was pretty hilarious myself until I actually made the things. They are super creepy. But I sort of love them for that.”

The pillows are without question the creepiest thing you could get anyone as a gift. Imagine walking into a room and accidently sitting on one!! *shudders* I mean, who would you give them to even as a joke?!? It begs the question, what’s the worst gift you’ve ever gotten??
