The saddest thing you’re ever going to see: ‘Rent-A-Friend’
Yes this is a real thing and it is spectacularly sad amusing. Rent-A-Friend was released in 1986 for lonely peeps with VCRs who, well… needed a pal. Sam (your new rent-a-friend) has long converstions with you about life and shit. He’ll even hang up the phone just to listen to you!
If you’re super lonely or just need a shoulder to cry on, you can buy Sam for $16.00 here.
