There are a lot of things you find on the internet that make you say “WTF,” last weeks Kylie Jenner lip challenge was no exception. However, today I came across something that was on another level.
Traditionally, those who choose to be cremated after death are placed in some type of urn. Dutch designer Mark Sturkenboom decided that what better way to remember the dead then putting them into a dildo?
The real question is what on earth gave Sturkenboom this strange and somewhat creepy idea? He explains:
I sometimes help an elderly lady with her groceries and she has an urn standing near the window with the remains of her husband. She always speaks with so much love about him but the jar he was in didn’t reflect that at all.
Okay… so maybe urns aren’t cute and cuddly and loving… but a dildo is kind of the opposite side of the spectrum, don’t you think? All I can think about is having a haunted pussy..
The product, called 21 grams, is actually pretty fabulous looking (albeit the strange use).
And, in case you need a way to blast Trey Songz while you’re flicking the bean, the product comes with an iPod dock!
Or, if you need to “freshen up” after a particularly juicy masturbation session.. a perfume holder!
In his defense, he did have some reasoning behind these products:
“By bringing different nostalgic moments together like the scent of his perfume, ‘their’ music, reviving the moment he gave her her first ring, it opens a window to go back to moments of love and intimacy,”
Okay Sturkenboom, I see where you’re coming from now… kind of.
Unfortunately for the thousands of widows who are probably lining up to buy this product, I don’t see this being mass produced anytime soon. In the meantime, maybe you can 3D print your next dildo instead?
