When you need some privacy while writing: a compubody sock!

[Bubastes]

It's a combination hoodie/laptop cover thing so no one can see what you're writing. Added bonus: you won't see anyone else either, which is good considering you'll probably get a lot of strange looks.

Good thing I wasn't drinking anything when I clicked that link. OMG! If I walked into a room and spotted someone with that on you would have to pick me up off the floor.

 

[Cranky]

Wha? That's one of the goofiest things I've ever seen.

 

[Chris P]

Haha! That's the funniest thing I've seen in ages!

 

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

I sent the link to a friend who knits and crochets. I think I'll have one made for another friend for his birthday. Bwahahahahahaha!

 

[writerterri]

I'll make you one!

 

[Ol' Fashioned Girl]

My friend who knits and crochets LAUGHED at me and accused me of having a 'liquid lunch'.

 

[Caitlin Black]

OMG! It's even more awesome than I expected from the comments here!

But no, I don't think I'll be buying one. Anyway - how would you drink your coffee while wearing that thing?!

 

[Eudoxia]

There better be air-holes on that or else there's going to be a lot of complaints!

However, I would definitely get one of these just to freak out my co-workers.

 

[Bubastes]

I don't think you can buy one. If you want one, you'll have to knit it. Yes, instead of spending hundreds of hours making a normal sweater, you can make . . . this.

 

[VP_Benni]

I should make one and take it to school just for fun...

[Eudoxia]

Well, at least I'll be able to take up a new hobby that will hold the potential of keeping my annoying co-workers at bay.

 

[Izz]

I want one.

And then i want to sit in public places.

 

[CACTUSWENDY]

But....but.....laptops put out so much heat I would think you would start a fire in one of those. But......I think it is so neat.

 

[BenPanced]

Okay, I'm screaming in paralyzed claustrophobic horror now...

All I could think of was the television in Videodrome absorbing James Woods.

 

[bettielee]

I want one.

Hell, no, I want two.

 

[Izz]

I want one.

Hell, no, I want two.

Oh, yes. Two people wearing these (identical ones, of course), and sitting directly opposite each other in a square or a mall or some other busy space.

That's performance art, right there.

 

[BenPanced]

Anybody who watched more than two hours of TV during the 80's remembers Mummenschanz.

Which is much more entertaining and not as scary.

but... but then I would need a friend....

I want both FOR ME! So I have a spare, in case..... or I could leave one at work, there's all kinds of reasons for one person to have two of these!!!

 

[PattiTheWicked]

Just imagine how cute this would look paired up with a Snuggie, Pajama Jeans, and a set of Snooki Slippers.

Yes! No more heating bills!

A social compusock and an around home compusock.

I want a sound bubble. I don't care if it's it's clear or dark or whatever. I just need something to drown out this damn construction noise. All I want to hear is the tap-tapping of my keys and maybe something from my iTunes library. Nothing more.

 

[Hip-Hop-a-potamus]

I was expecting it to be like a snuggie with a big hood to put over the computer, but that's just silly!

No, just no. If my computer gets a little sweater, I want one too. It's 20 below here!

 

[Sad Soup-eating Girl]

I have a friend who constantly whines about privacy. I know what I'll get him for christmas
