Ah, but is it 1920s style death ray proof?
Tried it. It worked. It’s still being done.

Actually, are we sure this qsleeper thing isn’t just a spoof site, like manbeef and bonsaikitty?
Oh Mangetout, it’s such a precious concept, does it really matter?
Damn you, Astro. Now that I followed your first link, my Amazon “recommendations” page shows the 48-count box of Depends alongside the book German Secret Weapons of World War II and Portishead’s Dummy album.
Check again. Sucker’s got a UPS built in.
Maybe I’m weird, and I’ll never have the money for one, but I’d really, really enjoy one. I think. I have strong urges to be in a sort of cocoon while I sleep (hence lots of heavy blankets on my bed) - I like the security of feeling like I’m, in some way, back in the womb. Maybe others wouldn’t, but I’d like to close myself up in a box with a controlled atmosphere and a DVD player.
Is anyone else reminded of The Abominable Dr. Phibes?
If I can put my sleep comfort mattress in it, that’s my dream bed.
Really, I sleep best where there’s warmth, no light, no sound, no movement, and my feet are covered (in socks) and warm. I thought that one day, I’d end up being one of those odd people who buy coffins… but this would be roomier!
(I’m not worried about biohazard or bullets. I just wanna keep out the noise and light!)
Looks like it’s an option:
What no “LASERS”?
I think you could put those on the end of the robotic arms. In fact, you’re probably supposed to. I mean, a robotic arm doesn’t seem like a very intimidating defensive device. “Ooo, get out or I’ll…poke you with my robotic arm.” I suppose you could give an intruder an animatronic bitch slap maybe. But the intruder would have to stand still and let you do it.
But a robotic arm with a laser on it? Whoa-ho! Install a remote control lock on your door to keep the perps from escaping, and it’d be an FPS jubilee right there in your bedroom! Live out your James Bond-ian fantasies with your in-bed joystick and monitor as the trespassers scramble to escape your very own 1920’s style death ray. Best of all, the laser would cauterize the stumps of any limbs you slice off, so there’s no bloody mess on the carpet and walls!
AAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!
As a claustrophobic, I should never have opened this damn thread. That’s almost as bad as being buried alive and if you die in your sleep… :eek:

Please mommy, make them stop!!!
