THIS is now the stupidest direct-market product I've ever seen, it's also the most useless, most shameless (they KNEW what they were doing when they named it and then filmed this commercial featuring comely young women) product I've ever seen.

Woman: "My seat belt used to hold me so tight I could hardly breathe!"

Maybe instead of buying the "Tiddy Bear" you should've invested in a new set of lungs because if a seatbelt shoulder-strap restricts your breathing you have issues.
 
WTH? I use to see those things sold for carseats, now they're passing them off for adults for seat belts that are "too tight".
 
Funny as that is, it's nowhere near as bad as the stick with a clamp for your toilet paper. If you need a stick with a clamp to wipe your ass, you have bigger issues than can be solved by a stick with a clamp.
 
LOL LOL...

Well I can see that little Tiddy bear is very happy that he's turned in towards her breasts. See now that is an example of a designer really thinking things out.
 
Oh yeah? You guys just wait until my company gets our products to market. :D


J.
 
I used to have one of those. It was seriously useful.

People making fun might like to reflect that car seats, like everything else, are designed on a 'one size fits all' basis. If you are short the seatbelt cuts across your neck. If you're busty, it can cut across the breasts uncomfortably. There are even greater complications if you're heavily pregnant or have had a mastectomy (especially with radiotherapy).

Seat belts are life savers, but they do dig/cut unless you're a pretty standard shape. I used a small cushion until someone bought me a teddy bear strap cover. I used it for so long, it had to be retired. Where can I get a new one?
 
I agree. My youngest daughter was still fairly short when she was learning to drive. Something like this would have been really useful back then.
 
:guffaw:lol!!! the way she keeps rubbing the bear all over her chest...and I love how all the women are wearing tight spaghetti strap camisoles...lol!!!
 
I would be willing to work as an on-site customer service representative and trainer for this product line.

*honk honk*

Oy! I've heard of these products before but have never actually seen them advertised. I agree, if you need such a device you've got issues. I like how they talk about "dirty TP." If your TP is dirty, you've got some cleanliness problems too. And, granted, depending on the -ahem- nature of the "movement" it's possible you could get dirty after the wipe. Which is why they invented soap and water.

EDIT -

Some have posted in defense of this product.

Ok. Maybe there's "a" need for it if your seatbelt digs into your chest, but this isn't because the seatbelt is "so tight that you can't breathe." It's more that "the seat belt uncomofrtably digs into your neck or boobs." I also allow the possibilty that your car doesn't have adjustable seat-straps (as it's a fairly recent common feature in many models of car.)

That doesn't man that this product is a)absurdly named, b)absurdly designed, c)absurdly advertised.

Hell, I could see this as a good product for kids due to some seat-belt comfortability problems children might have in a booster or car seat.

Still, it's a fairly dumb product, IMHO.
 
I had this problem in our huge Ford Econoline van we used to have, but I was a bit smaller then. And then the problem was that the belt was to high and cutting into my neck, but the van actually had things on the belt already that fixed this. And they where just buckles none of this bear shit.

In adulthood my main problem is finding a car that's not too snug! And many ask why I like American cars...
 
LOL LOL...

I wouldn't mind being a Tiddy bear.

On a more serious note, if they made this in non-teddy bear form, I'd consider it and put it around my shoulder/neck area since I'm not very tall and it would definitely help.
