Pillows are one of those everyday objects that most of us probably don’t appreciate. We should! Not only is a decent pillow essential to getting a good night’s rest, it’s also important to your health. According to this study by the University of Rochester Medical Center, a pillow is important for proper spine alignment. And while you might think pillows are a modern convenience, there’s evidence that humans have been using pillows for thousands of years. Point is, pillows are a lot more important than we might think they are.

But there are some people who aren’t satisfied with pillows that simply give them good posture. These people insist that their pillow be special and unique. As you might imagine, since we live in the age of the Internet, this means there are some pretty weird pillows out there. Here are 15 of the strangest.

Worst things you can practice kissing on:

  1. Pillow
  2. Pet
  3. Sibling
  4. Pillow with a built-in mouth

Babies crave their parents’ touch, but no parent can possibly hold their baby 24/7. That’s where the Zaky comes in. Much more convenient than using someone’s severed hand.

Now you can take a nap on a fish without getting banned from all your local koi ponds.

4. LED Pillow with a built-in wake-up light.

This one has an LED light that slowly wakes you up, and it’s an alarm clock. Not recommended for excessive droolers.

5. The “Pillow Safe”

Keeping your money under your mattress? That’s what paranoid kooks do. Keeping your money in your pillow, though? Genius.

6. The “ThenCry” Pillow, with a built-in tissue dispenser.

It’s perfect for the sniffles, or for those nights when you cry yourself to sleep wondering why you’re still alone.

Looking like a complete idiot is a small price to pay for not being remotely comfortable.

If you can’t find a boyfriend, get the next best thing: a pillow that looks like Robert Pattinson after he got stung by a bunch of bees.

This one isn’t for sale, it’s actually an art project by Kate Kretz. By that same token, I will be exhibiting the yellow sweat patterns on my old pillows at the Guggenheim this fall.
