Description
This small whoopee cushion in bright red latex brings the oldest joke in the book down to pocket size. Its round body carries a black and red checked panel with the words "Whoopee Cushion" printed across the middle in bold red capitals, framed by a zigzag border, and a short neck runs out from one side. The round part is about 7.5cm across, the whole piece is 10.5cm long including the neck, and it sits about 2cm deep. It is made of latex, sponge and plastic and weighs almost nothing, so it slips into a coat pocket or a bag.
A toy made purely for a laugh, it goes wherever someone is about to sit down: under a sofa cushion, on a dining chair, beneath a seat pad or on an office chair. Press on it and the air rushes out through the neck with that unmistakable rude noise. Because it self-inflates, there is no need to blow it up between goes; give it a moment and it is ready to set again, which makes it easy to catch out a whole household. Its small size makes it easy to hide, and the red latex and printed words leave nobody unsure about what they sat on once the joke has landed.
The latex body is soft and flexible, and the printed panel sits on its upper face, so the words are the first thing anyone sees when the prank is found out. Treat it gently: keep it away from pins, scissors and other sharp things, and store it out of direct sunlight and away from radiators. A wipe with a damp cloth keeps it clean. It makes a cheerful little present on its own or an easy extra tucked in beside a bigger gift, and we like keeping one in a desk drawer for the day the office could do with cheering up.
