WTF?! Man marries pillow??
 

True love can take many forms. In this case, it has taken the form of a Korean man falling in love with, and eventually marrying, a large pillow with a picture of a woman on it. metro.co.uk

Lee Jin-gyu fell for his 'dakimakura' - a kind of large, huggable pillow from Japan, often with a picture of a popular anime character printed on the side.
In Lee's case, his beloved pillow has an image of Fate Testarossa, from the 'magical girl' anime series Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha.

Now the 28-year-old otaku (a Japanese term that roughly translates to somewhere between 'obsessive' and 'nerd') has wed the pillow in a special ceremony, after fitting it out with a wedding dress for the service in front of a local priest. Their nuptials were eagerly chronicled by the local media.

'He is completely obsessed with this pillow and takes it everywhere,' said one friend.

'They go out to the park or the funfair where it will go on all the rides with him. Then when he goes out to eat he takes it with him and it gets its own seat and its own meal,' they added.
The pillow marriage is not the first similarly-themed unusual marriage in recent times - it comes after a Japanese otaku married his virtual girlfriend Nene Anegasaki, a character who only exists in the Nintendo DS game Love Plus, last November.

only in Japan...

He has issues.

WTF is all I have to say.

Why is it that as soon as I read the thread title, Juicy was the first person that came to mind?

...who later sued the news outlet for libel for calling him the loser's friend. 'You shittin' me? Dude's got no friends...don't call me his fuckin' friend! I'm scarred for life!'

Some dude married a video game character from a dating sim a while back. hilarity those little asians are...

I didn't think things could get much stranger but this has excelled itsself

at least he's smart enough not to marry a real woman

Reminds me of the woman who married the Eiffel tower in France.
