RSS 2.0“Batphones” Are Meant To Further Humilate Elderly
March 20, 2008
For those of you that did not think that enormous sunglasses were embarrassing enough, designer Matthias Ries has developed massive, plastic ears to dress your most decrepit old person in. These “batphones” are not meant to be a replacement for relatively low profile hearing aids, but are instead intended for those with only slight hearing problems. This, of course, makes perfect sense because a person with a minor hearing problem would have absolutely no problem donning ear attachments that make your head look like a miniature urinal. This product seems rather silly and I have no idea why Batman would endorse such a thing. Between this and his movie, he could easily over expose himself and saturate the market. That isn’t a problem for me though, because no amount of Batman exposure would ever saturate me…wait, what?
