From Homotron: Japanese Recreate Bene Gesserit Torture Box
"Kul Wahad! No girl-child ever withstood so much pain!"
Ah, Young Atreides, your time has come. The Japanese have recreated the infamous and oft-imitated "box of pain" from Frank Herbert's Dune, which Herbert fans will remember being wielded by creepy Bene Gesserit Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam.
The Japanese, of course, have taken their Tuttuki Bako and dolled it up to look all cute, but believe you me - that LCD panda-on-a-string is just window dressing to distract you while the Tuttuki Bako floods your brain with agony. You can also stroke a little girl's face.
So to recap: $30 Japanese finger box lets you "play" some touching "games." Sakes alive. With times being what they are, it might not be so long before I'm offering a similar service myself.

This post wins just for the Dune reference.

lol I don't know if I've seen anything this inappropriate in a long time.
Sian Philips is fantastic!
Check her out in the BBC drama "I, Claudius". Love her.
I'm just waiting for the first lawsuit from a guy who sticks something other than his finger in there.
And tangentially related, has anyone read any of the final Dune books written by Brian Herbert (Frank's son)?
Ohh...I see...*understands*
