How'd you like a fluffy tail that wags when you're excited?

1/3/2013

It's hard to believe a fluffy wagging tail is on any human's must-have list, but that hasn't stopped a Japanese inventor from creating one. The "Tailly" doesn't just look cute, it's fully functional: Hooked up to a heart-rate monitor, it wags when you're excited — and faster the more excited you get. That may sound totally freaky to you (and us), but Shota Ishiwatari, who will introduce the accessory in new markets this year, thinks it can help couples. "You could … wear Tailly on a date and express your true feelings," he suggests, and "your partner could also wear one … to add a level of subconscious communication." As if dating weren't awkward enough. [Source]
