The Futuristic Futon Fiasco

At Expo 2025 Osaka, a company unveiled its latest invention: a futuristic smart futon that adjusts firmness, temperature, and even plays soothing sounds based on your sleep pattern.

During the live demo, a sleepy visitor volunteered to test it out on the spot.

The futon immediately started analyzing him, but instead of relaxing, it went haywire:
It pumped up like a bouncy castle, then deflated suddenly, bounced back, and began playing techno music at full volume.

The visitor was bounced around like a human pinball, while the crowd burst into laughter.

To make matters worse, the futon then announced in a robotic voice:
“Sleep mode failed. Please try again after coffee.”

The visitor got up dizzy but laughing, and the company quickly renamed it the “Party Futon” — a sleeper’s nightmare turned instant comedy hit.
