back scratcher


If a zombie plague ever did break out, one thing is for certain—you would never struggle reach for a stubborn itch again. Just grab one of the severed zombie arms littering the street and let it do the work for you.

It would be especially satisfying if you took out the zombie yourself. Now you’ve really earned that back scratch.

In the meantime your best bet is to get one of these faux zombie hand back scratchers. It will do the job equally well and there is much less risk of infection (unless you scratch down your pants).

You know what we need? Dedicated chairs for back scratching—or maybe even back scratching functionality built into a massage chair. Designer Dana Gordon is pioneering this new product line with an “Itch Chair” that features a scratching actuator controlled by running your fingertips across a touchpad on the seat base. It even has interchangeable “fingernails” that can be used to achieve the appropriate intensity.
