Humans desire to be many things:

  • Rich
  • Successful
  • Attractive
  • Powerful

But there’s one thing they constantly strive to stay away from:

Loneliness.

And it’s not just our fight-or-flight senses at work here, even though our ancestors did cultivate a habit of working together to survive. Rather…

It’s because loneliness feels pretty shitty.

As such, it’s no wonder humans of today are so keen to find companionship, but here’s the thing:

It’s easy for guys, but what about girls?

I mean; not trying to be sexist here, but girls do crave for things that are less likely to be accessible to them. Like…

Warm hugs and cuddles they normally get from their significant other, for example.

Aunt Matilda: That’s right! I crave for warm hugs and cuddles all the time, but guys I hit on run away all the time! What a pack of losers!

I think it’s just your personality at work here, Aunt Matilda.

Aunt Matilda: What did you say?

Anyway, worry not girls, and Aunt Matilda, for an ample solution is here.

Aunt Matilda: You punk, trying to change the topic?

And the solution’s none other than this wholesome, delicious…

6-pack body pillow.

Aunt Matilda: … you punk…

“This is an absolutely magnificent piece of art!” she cried.

Thirsty? Dig into some abs

It’s common knowledge that girls dig abs for some ‘unfathomable’ reason, but just like your Mr Right and Mrs Right, they might prove a tad bit inaccessible for your average Emily.

But hey, if you do fall into that unfortunate spectrum, worry not…

Because we’ve got your ab-thirsting tongue covered.

Meet Bob (not his real name), a particularly muscular upper torso ‘body pillow’.

Now, here’s the thing. While Bob might undoubtedly possess some manly six-pack abs and strong chest muscles, he has so kindly skipped ‘Arm’s Day’ for your convenience, developing soft and cuddly arms that can wrap around your body thanks to the velcro strips at the tips.

Clingier than the overly attached girlfriend? Welp, Bob’s perfect for you.

Do be gentle though. After all, if you get the body pillow first-hand…

It’ll be his first time.

Also, lest you haven’t noticed, the pillow is distinctly hairless, taut and toned.

Perfect for those with male OCD.

And plus, I haven’t even touched on the best part.

He’s extremely low-maintenance, with abs that will persist for ages without any training whatsoever.

Now, is Bob the perfect companion or what?

Inspiration

According to World Of Buzzthe idea for this particular pillow seems to have stemmed from Shirane, a recent graduate of Tokyo’s Ochanomizu Institute of Art who reportedly designed the macho cushion as part of her graduate project.

Well, we’re not judging.

Thereafter, after receiving lots of positive feedback, she began a crowdfunding exercise to produce the pillow. She reportedly reached her target of 450,000 yen (RM17,195) before long.

According to SoraNews24, Shirane described the item as one that can heal emotional distress, as well as soothe the soul.

Pledgers can look forward to receiving their items in a few months, as it’s set to commence shipping in October. Though it seems that other merchants may have beaten Shirane to the punch, with various listings on sites like Aliexpress, Taobao and Funing Factory.

Prices seem to start from 97.56 RMB (RM59), and the body pillow measures 65 x 60 cm.

You can check Bob out here.

And so… what’re you waiting for?

Don’t say bojio ah! If you’re a lonely girl and could do with some warm, tight hugs…

You know what to do.

And so, with the Thunder God’s blessing…
