rub yourself up the wrong way

 gloves that enable you to massage your own neck.

need a neckrub and there is no-one around or at least no-one that you trust to put their grubby little fists around your vulnerable throat?

imagine if you will large Mickey Mouse hands (well, not quite so large) with nice fat firm solid fingers. Your own hands slide into the gloves in quite the opposite way to the norm and when in the glove, you can manipulate the fingers in much the manner of a glove puppet.

“that’s the way to do it – Mr Punch” <thwack> “take that, you stoopid Judy” <thwack><waves a chain of sausages><punches the policeman>

oh… I am sorry…, where was I? oh yes, and so with these gloves on, you put your hands on the matching shoulders and soothe all those nasty little aches and pains away. nice smelling rubbing oils are optional of course.

Haven't tried this one myself, though. [DrCurry]

Haven't tried this one either http://www.sharperi...&amp;pcatid=3&amp;catid=305

Nor have I tried this one http://www.sharperi...&amp;pcatid=3&amp;catid=304
...which really looks like it was designed for something else. [DrCurry]

I prefer the wooden kind http://www.songofindia.com/msgrs.htm [DrCurry, Oct 05 2004, last modified Oct 21 2004]

       They don't have Sharper Image in Britain, do they? They may not do massage gloves, but they have an extensive line of neck massagers.

       We have Richer Sounds, though it's more dedicated to home entertainment - the one at London Bridge has, according to Guinness, the highest sales per square foot of floor space in the world.

       those first three look a little rough. I want something more gentle. that last one is for the back.

       Snakes give a good massage. Put one on your bare shoulders/neck - don't try it with a large boa constrictor though.
—thumbwax, May 21 2003
   

       how do you know its a boa?   

       is the boa a goer?

       I feel constricted....let's stop this now!
—goober, May 21 2003
   

       you are holding your neck far too tightly my dear, hey let me squeeze it for you. tighter. tighter.   

       OK Officer I will stop now - he was murdering my idea.

       Man, could I use one of these right about now. (+)   

       I *much* prefer rubbing myself up the right way.
