| - Do you need a styrofoam head? I needed a styrofoam head. It's sort of a long story.
See there's this horse head. In my office. Not a real horse head. Arguably not a real office. It's rubber. The horse head. Not the office. Anyhow there's this rubber horse head mask in my office. Still with me?
So there's this rubber horse head mask in my office. Like most masks, it is meant to be worn on a head. A human head. Not a horse head. This isn't complicated. Why would a horse need a horse mask? A horse head already looks like a horse head. No. A human head. And when someone is wearing the mask-- a human-- when a human is wearing the mask, as per the design parameters, well then everything is just fine. It is a good horse head mask.
But when the mask is not on a (human!) head, it doesn't have a lot of structure. It sort of falls flat. Like a piece of rubber shaped like a horse's head might. Maybe that's okay for a normal office. Maybe that's expected. I bet it helps with storage. But this isn't a normal office. We've covered that. We don't have normal expectations for our heads. Our rubber horse heads. I think we have normal expectations for our human heads.
We want our horse head to stare out the window. At the office across the street. The presumably normal office. With presumably normal expectations about rubber horse heads. We think it will help our office seem friendlier. To do that, the horse head can't fall flat. It needs to stand up. Like it does when it is on a human head. But we don't have any spare human heads. I think most normal offices don't have spare human heads. In this way our office is quite normal. All human heads are spoken for. No one is willing to part with their human head, either.
Spare human heads are hard to acquire. And they have upkeep requirements. Our office is reluctant to support the upkeep of a spare human head. I think this is also pretty normal. But our office is near King's Display Rack & Mannequins. And they have styrofoam heads. Styrofoam human heads. In fact they have a wide variety of ersatz human heads. There are high gloss plastic human heads, but they are expensive. There are ersatz (human) heads attached to ersatz (human) bodies, but they are cumbersome, and even more expensive.
But for seven dollars and fifty cents they have styrofoam human heads. I bought one. It is a good styrofoam human head. Certainly seven dollars and fifty cents worth of good. To be honest, I would have paid ten dollars for a styrofoam human head of this quality. It has a neutral expression, but you can't really tell when it's wearing the rubber horse head mask.
Now the horse head sits on the styrofoam human head and stares across the street at the other office and the whole place feels friendlier.
4 stars because it's sort of crowded in there.
