Pillow Talk: 25 Strange Throw Pillows

Pillows, like T-shirts, are a lot cooler these days. Of course if I were actually to buy all of these, my house would look a lot cooler but would be sans one wife. But I found as many links as possible, should you turn out crazier than I.

Blood pool pillow: An irreverent combination of comfort and fear. Terrify/amuse your friends and family with the always funny Massive-Head-Wound Joke!


Book pillow: Instead of using a book for a pillow while studying, use a book pillow. For those who head to the university library mostly to avoid your roommates.


Hamburger pillow: Mouth-wateringly handmade and painstakingly realistic. Hold the onion, of course.


Campfire pillow: Come on baby, light my fire. Try to set the couch on fire!


Cork pillow: Put a cork in it. The material is actual thinly sliced cork bark on fabric, for that real wine bottle feel.


Egg pillow: Lay your head sunny side up. Next best thing to sleeping through breakfast.


Guitar pillow: For those about to lounge, we salute you.


Gun pillow: Happiness is a warm gun pillow.


Headhunter pillow: If you rest your head here, it may come back smaller.


Horse head pillow: This Godfather-inspired pillow will make anyone a offer they can't refuse.


Hydrant pillow: Just don't leave it near your dog.


Icon pillows: Because you love your Mac so much, you want to cuddle.


Lap pillow: Shaped like the legs of a kneeling woman in a short skirt, this Japanese pillow is described as "a comfy cushion for napping, reading or watching television." They forgot the words creepy and weird.


Lego pillow: When you think soft and comfortable, think hard, sharp-edged plastic bricks!


Lips pillow: It's like lying you head on Angelina Jolie's face.


Martini pillow: Nothing says classy like black velvet, stuffed, cartoon martini glasses.


Nintendo pillows: A nice retro rest for your favourite geek gamer, at least until someone makes a plush Wii.


Pizza pillow: On one side, pizza toppings. The other side resembles a crust. If this was on my couch, I would end up trying to eat it.


Rock pillow: There's a whole line of these pillows that look like huge rocks. Who can look at that picture without wincing?


Scrabble pillow: Great concept and the original designer built couches that looked like tile holders. Still, a lousy word score.


Skull and crossbones pillow: Arr, we be claiming this couch and searching for treasure under all ye couch cushions.


Sushi pillow: If you had to pick a Japanese food to turn into a throw pillow, it beats tempura.


Synthesizer pillow: Hook that baby up to you guitar pillow and rock your living room gently to sleep.


Transformer pillow: Soft and fluffy Transformer pillows, pretty much what meets the eye.


Darth Vader pillow: Our soft Sith lord. One can only assume that both sides of this pillow are always cool. Sadly, it has been discontinued.
