Remember when David Livingston brought his 6-foot flaccid felt penis into the New Museum, only to promptly get kicked to the curb? Well, soon after he took his friend on the subway... where it seems everyone was just too disaffected to even glance at the monstrosity. Maybe because, at least peripherally, it basically just looks like a body pillow? We suggest some creative tweaking, and maybe a 6-foot female counterpart to accompany it.
