As I said on FB, this is simultaneously the dumbest and coolest thing I’ve ever seen.

Yep, this is how us keyboardists get all the girls!

Considering I read that at a glance as "commode-ian", that was pretty tame compared to my imagination.

I'm reminded a bit of when I got sucked into plugin mania Black Friday two years ago, unable to resist huge sales on various things whether I needed them or not.  I had just gotten Kontakt and so was a wide-eyed sample library buyer, haven't not yet learned wisdom and restraint.  I picked up this on a big sale (though one wonders if it would ever sell when NOT on sale):

Frendo is described by the makers thusly:  

Quote

Frendo is a custom-built Soundiron instrument. We created this monster by stringing bailing wire around and through steel plates and bolts, over galvanized steel piping and across wood planks. It was meant to suffer. You can help by mistreating it in horrible ways with screwdrivers, bows, drum sticks, mallets and fingers. The instrument holds a vast amount of otherworldly sounds, which is ideal for composers looking for new disturbing, horror-like textures for their scores. Frendo is partially a mallet instrument, recorded with wooden and rubber mallets, but is also a more traditional string instrument, since we recorded finger plucks and bows. It's the sound of Satan's cello, weeping softly for your burning soul.

It sounds super weird and scary, and ironically I DID use it when my friend and I redid/remixed a few of our old original tunes for Halloween.

Might as well call it the Celibatordian.
