We're pretty confident this is the weirdest thing on Tesco's website.
Like, why is "gay" a swearword?
The product description reads like someone who's gone mad after getting trapped in the chick lit section of Waterstones for three weeks.
Especially the bit about its "smiling, Gary Lineker-esque face".
UNCANNY.
The suggested age range is... um.
Still, I'm convinced. I would definitely like to buy this inflatable g*y best friend.
Dammit.

Although Tesco seem to have a slightly different definition of "removed from our website" to everyone else.
And that thing where "gay" is a swearword is still pretty weird, guys.
But in case you're sad that you can't buy an inflatable gay best friend any more... don't worry! Amazon still sell them.
