No BF? With this gadget, no problem!

Jul 9, 2008 by FN's Chrissy Icamina

There's nothing sexier than your man whispering in your ear, "May I rub your shoulders?"

But what if you don't have a man to call your own? Apparently—and may we say oddly enough—this gadget is supposed to address that problem.

Probably a product of too much loneliness bordering on insanity, the Handsome Man Bank provides a lonesome woman (or man!) some sort of companionship. This doodad, which is reminiscent of the Tamagotchi, features an LCD with five, well, handsome Japanese blokes to choose from. And to provide that warm, fuzzy, and kilig feeling, it "says" stuff like, "Can I kiss you?" among others.

Seems like a fun gadget to make a lonely single friend laugh, but, as we quote our source, "if you're going to buy the HMB for companionship, or to ease the pain of loneliness, clearly you're a bit different and normalcy went out the window for you years ago."
