Self-adhesive wall hooks have been around for decades, but you typically don’t see suggestive ones for sale outside of adult stores. For some reason this set of wall hooks slipped past industrial giant 3M’s PR department and right onto Asian store shelves.

Did anybody happen to notice that the company that made those was 3M? Correct me if im wrong but 3M is an american company, and here in america people notice stiff like that.

Im sure all products are approved by the company executives, it blows my mind how that slipped by.

it could have been manufactured in asia by 3M. as are most things now days
