Well, considering it's so hard to meet anyone in Miami, one of these might come in handy for some of y'all.

Yes, a Florida woman has designed "make-out practice pillows" for all your lonely late night needs.

They're the product of 26-year-old St. Petersburg woman Emily King. King ripped the lips and nose off of CPR dummies and then sewed them into fleece pillows.

"As we neared closer to Valentine's Day I knew the time had come -- pillows you could make-out with," King said according to The Metro. "But I have to admit that when I mentioned this idea to my friends, the reaction from anyone over the age of 25 tended to be variations on 'that's really creepy.'"

"I thought it was pretty hilarious myself until I actually made the things. They are super creepy. But I sort of love them for that."

Well, isn't that the true meaning of Valentine's Day? Loving something even though it's a little creepy.

We were going to say it was unfortunate that the lips are not somehow robotically controlled to simulate actual make-out motions, but then we realized how creepy that would be.

King has already run out of the CPR mouthpieces according to Instructables.com, but she has provided a pattern and instructions on how to make your very own make-out practice pillow.
