Apr 3 2009Tuantaun Sleeping Bag Becoming Reality?
As you may recall, ThinkGeek cruelly offered a tauntaun sleeping bag as an April Fool's joke, just to break your heart. Well, because of the overwhelming demand for such a product, Thinkgeek has decided to look into actually having them made.
ATTN Tauntaun Fanatics!
Due to an overwhelming tsunami of requests from YOU THE PEOPLE, we have decided to TRY and bring this to life. We have no clue if the suits at Lucasfilms will grant little ThinkGeek a license, nor do we know how much it would ultimately retail for. But if you are interested in ever owning one of these, click the link below and we'll try!
If you go to the product site you can click on the link that says 'Email me IF available' to be notified if they actually get made. But one thing's for sure: if they're getting made, I'm getting laid (in one). Ever made love inside a tauntaun? It's warm. And squishy.
Thanks to roflbot (who I may still kill despite the tip) and Allison, whose tauntauns could easily make to the second marker before freezing.

Only if it comes with the little girl.
5. naas - April 3, 2009 2:36 PM
@4 She's too little for that. That phone sex vid youtube link didn't do it for you yesterday, did it?
6. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - April 3, 2009 2:41 PM
That's a girl?
7. LSDiesel - April 3, 2009 2:41 PM
@5, I see what you mean. In that case, we'll share her.

I would appreciate this if 13 people hadn't just died from gunshot wounds about 10 min from me...

@13
I just told the folks in the office about it. Maybe you know more than the rest of the world, because you're closer. Have they identified the shooter yet? Is he alive or one of the corpses?

McAllister-
20 injured
13 dead
2 men in custody
They were chasing another one under the court street bridge - now they're saying he ate his high powered rifle.
Location is the ACA - He opened fire during a citizenship test. Witnesses say he's Vietnemese, that's most of what I got from the last radio broadcast.
Catholic Charities has set up emergency service contact for family members and a hotline for them to check on friends/family.
Bomb squad was also on scene just in case.

This I dont understand. All these older creepy pedophile f&$#s that screw little boys.
I guess it's all flesh to them.
Pieces of s#&t...

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can' tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max was over at Baja's house while her father was disposing of some dea hookers. As he cut one into wood chipper size pieces he said - And I thought they smelled bad on the outside.

Holy crap, yes.
I'm proud to say that I was one of the people who harrassed-I mean, /suggested/ about this by email. Granted, it was more about how there was no true hope for the human race since it was a joke, but it counts.
25. Milkman - April 3, 2009 4:07 PM
pretty cool but wheres the adult sized one?
26. Craig - April 3, 2009 4:24 PM
Frankly, I'd rather have the Squeeze Bacon.
27. Angel Mass - April 3, 2009 4:25 PM
Still fake!
28. fax - April 3, 2009 7:54 PM
My guess is that NO ONE will ever make love in this sleeping bag.
29. Rhialto - April 3, 2009 8:45 PM
I bet kids would love to sleep in this.The boogeyman has become the kid's best friend.
30. Yopoleo - April 4, 2009 12:37 AM

31. J-rock - April 4, 2009 3:59 AM

32. buy wow gold - April 6, 2009 4:20 AM
This can temporarily fill my absence and my daughter would be tempted to sleep as early as possible, I don't want her to keep waiting for me to arrive in our house. I'd be buying this item as soon as the product is available.
33. Amaranth - April 6, 2009 10:32 AM

34. STOMPY - August 24, 2009 11:03 PM

You could throw a dead cat in there for added realism.
