Emotional Support Bear OR Creepiest Thing Ever

This is the stuff of nightmares folks.
Plenty of people get lonely. But it takes a weird kind of lonely to want this . . .
A website called PuffyBear.com is selling a human-sized teddy bear you use as a body pillow. But it’s not like those oversized bears you win at carnivals.
It’s got the head of a teddy bear, but the body of a man . . . like something out of a very strange nightmare.
He’s got five fingers on each hand, but thankfully he’s NOT anatomically correct.
He’s 5 feet, 7 inches tall, and billed as an emotional support pillow that, quote, “significantly reduces the feeling of loneliness.”
If you want your own weird teddy bear boyfriend, they cost $160 plus shipping.
The website says he arrives naked with no clothes, so you can dress him up however you want. He fits into large and extra-large men’s clothing.
