Ever Wanted To Own A Bed That Looks Like Fast Food And Comes Complete With French Fry Pillows? Now You Can!
Metro- The Supersize Bed is the brainchild of set and costume designer Cecilia Carey and Harry Parr of food anarchists Bompas and Parr. Parr says of the design: ‘The chip bed is sensual and luxurious. Realise all of your fast food dreams as you curl up beneath the colourful headboard. Carey takes the principles of rock and roll applies them to furniture.’ And, amazing news, you can actually buy one for yourself. It’s price on application though which generally translates as ‘you can’t afford it’ but we’d be willing to save up for this statement piece. Dreams are made of this.
How the fuck did Americans not invent this? That’s an absolute travesty. I don’t want to say we’re slipping in the area of making fast food meals into furniture, but we’re slipping in the area of making fast food meals into furniture. We’re the fast food capital of the world and it’s not even close. There’s a McDonalds on every street corner of every street in America. We’re the fattest people in the world and somebody swooped in and made a fast food bed complete with french fry pillows right under our fat noses? I’ll just say what we’re all thinking: I’m embarrassed. I’m embarrassed for all of us. It doesn’t happen very often because we come from the greatest country in the history of the world but we fucked up here. Nobody should ever beat us to the punch on anything greasy food related. Ever. And this super awesome bed was invented by a British person? Flabbergasting. We gotten tighten shit up here in America.
As far as the actual bed itself, I don’t hate it. If the world wouldn’t look down upon a man in his mid-twenties having a fast food bed I’d think about buying it. I mean french fry pillows? That’s spectacular. I love french fries. How could you not? They’re greasy and they’re salty. But the world would look down of me because they’re a bunch of meanies. Also, if I bought that bed and woke up everyday thinking about fast food I’d get fast food even more often than I do already. And that has diabetes written all over it.
