i can haz cheezburger?

Whilst trawling the internet, I came across a neat design site, and whilst trawling that design site I came across something that turned my entire world view upside down: the hamburger bed. I’ve always been a fan of novelty items, be they oversized or undersized, it don’t matter as long as they ain’t normal sized. The genius of the bed doesn’t merely lie in the item itself, but rather the strange situations that would undoubtedly come with the bed.



Questions I ask myself, when looking at said bed:
1) Isn’t the duvet/bun too thick for regular sleeping? Perhaps the owner lives in a very cold climate.
2) What happens if you bring a man/lady/manlady home to the burger bed? If I was the lucky lass, my thoughts would be along the lines of “well, this is how I’m going to die… in a giant novelty burger bed.”
3) If I owned the bed, plus the novelty Hamburger coaster set, plus the hamburger phone from Juno, would that be cool or fetishistic?
4) I’m hungry.

On the hamburger bed homepage, they address bed semantics, namely: isn’t this technically a cheeseburger bed? Then comes the oh-so-sage quote by David Roland Strong “All cheeseburgers are also hamburgers; not all hamburgers are cheeseburgers.”
