The legs on this thing almost feel like a cruel joke. Sure, you've got a mobility that you could never get with a tradition sleeping bag, but what good is that without hands? Without the ability to pee? And without the dignity you sacrificed in becoming a six-foot-tall human frog fetus, minus prospects for a happier future?

But perhaps I'm missing the point: while the Snuggie is a instrument of laziness, the Japanese Walkable Sleeping Bag is a tool for self-improvement. See that man in the bottom left corner, soiling himself on the floor like some kind of pathetic, mutated worm? When—if—he rises, he we stand a better man. [Reddit]

My guess is that many of you endure a similar situation. Like getting up for work in the morning and going through your day in a blurry, sleepy fog. Perhaps that nightmare could be avoided if you had one of the following devices:

You can work, catch a bit of rest at your desk, then wake up and get right back to it. What could be more efficient than that? Productivity will skyrocket! You'll wake up with QWERTY (or the Russian equivalent) stamped across your forehead! It's a win for you aaaand a win for your co-workers. [Project Page]

All-in-all, the da Vinci Sleep alarm clock will net you around 3 hours of shut-eye per day (although I have heard da Vinci slept even less than that). Obviously, a schedule like this isn't for someone who maintains a regular 9 to 5 schedule, or operates heavy machinery—but it would be perfect for bloggers, retired persons and the unemployed. This particular clock is only a concept, but you could set a regular alarm fairly easily to try this sleep method yourself. [Yanko]

Kathy explains that they "were dating, but were just friendly. I never fucked him or anything!" And that whole engagement thing? That was just Kathy putting on a fake ring and not telling him. Oh you! Way to screw with the media by semi-lying. Let's hope this is the last time you try and get in the news for being connected to Woz. [Ed Note: I actually think it's hilarious. Keep it up Woz and Kathy! - B.L.] [US Magazine]

Those Murphy beds were loved by cartoon and vintage comedy makers, though we reckon BedUp has good comedy potential if it zipped down unexpectedly during the daytime. Customizable for size and color, it even lowers to a selectable height so that there's room for furniture underneath. From French designers Décadrages, its convenience will cost you: available from $4,300 upwards. [Bedup via Treehugger]

We love travelling a lot except for, you know, the part where you actually travel—airports and airplanes are two of the most uncomfortable places to be ever. Trying to fall asleep on a plane is an experience that has always sucked and alas, will always suck unless you're rich enough to be flying in a class where you can recline your seat all the way down or use a bed.

For proles like us that can't sleep upright because we either get terrible neck pains or end up drooling onto the shoulder of the nice old lady from Fort Lauderdale unlucky enough to be be seated next to us, the Skyrest Travel Pillow is $29.95, fits in your carry-on bag and inflates to a good enough size so that you can wedge it between yourself and the seat in front of you, pitch forward and then blissfully pass out.
