The teddy bear that tells you when you've had too much to drink

In "No, that's not creepy at all" news, this just in: a new teddy bear from - where else? - Japan will apparently act as both a GPS device and a very vocal breathalyser, shrieking. "You haven't been drinking, have you?" whilst sniffing your breath to check. Really.


Pink Tentacle reports
that the bear will also give useful information about local landmarks when you tap his head. As to what happens when you throw him out of the window and leave him to sniff the ground, the people of Japan will surely soon be finding out.

My recommendation? Turn to your healing partner doll if it all gets too much...
