New Low Rider in Town!

So, what do Jesse James of “West Coast Choppers”, Kat Von D of “LA Ink” and the Los Angeles County Coroners Office have in common?  Yep, a “Coffin Couch”. This SoCal company, called “Coffin Couches”  believes in “Recycling”. Literally. Their niche: 18 gauge steel coffins collected from local funeral homes since health and safety laws forbid funeral homes from reselling used coffins to the general public. Rest assured though that the coffins are not used for burial due to slight cosmetic inconsistencies.

Coffin Couch reconfigures and modifies the coffins for a  ”unique one of a kind coffin couch”.  As as an added bonus, you get your own biohazard insignia too!  Right there on the six cast iron legs are embossed the universal biohazard insignia. The reason?  We’ll let them tell you. Quoted from their website: “If you are not aware, once a human body is placed in a coffin it is considered biohazard tissue. The legs have the embossed insignia for precautionary reasons in the event body fluids are exchanged on these coffins. Perhaps you would feel safe knowing that you are in designated biohazard scene!“.  Funny.  

So what type of uses would you have for such as fun piece of furniture.  Hmm, as they suggest on the website: Retirement Parties, Game Rooms, Custom Company Logos, Small intimate hook-ups, Team Sports. Just to name a few.  The price: $3500.00.  “Dude, slide over will ya?! I need to rest a bit…got a slight headache and ringing in my ears.”
