US Patent No. 6,360,375 [ PDF ] [ HTML ]
Issued March 26, 2002
Buttocks support device

Now I have seen everything. The patent says it is like a bra, just for your buttocks. I suppose this should not come as a shock given that we, as a society, are spending more and more on plastic surgery, health club memberships and other various and sundry exercise and image related products. One depressing thought is that inventions like this signal that we have failed, we are doomed, but thank goodness we can at least look like we want while wearing clothes and our handy-dandy always trustworthy buttocks support device.
