Dear Casa readers, can you clear something up for me? Who is the targeted customer for the Urban Outfitters Leg Desk Lamp ($60)? I mean, besides the Old Man from A Christmas Story?

Dear Casa readers, can you clear something up for me? Who is the targeted customer for the Urban Outfitters Leg Desk Lamp ($60)? I mean, besides the Old Man from A Christmas Story?

Personally, I love the movie, although I think the targeted audience was originally men for the lamp! However, for those of us who love the movie, I could be the craziest Christmas decoration ever in a room for the "males" of the house!
1it's something quirky (however not for the living room)
2Christmas Story is my favorite holiday movie, I would love to have one. It would be a great item to put out for the holidays, but not for the rest of the year.
3I love Christmas Story. I can picture Dita Von Teese's dressing room with this lamp.
4I got to visit the Christmas Story house! It was filmed here in Cleveland
. And yes -
there was the lamp
5Ewww haha!
6This is totally the Christmas Story! OMG
LOVE it!!!! but only because this is my family's favorite christmas movie....i'd love to get this for my parents to put out for the holidays!!
7İ think it would look good in a boudoiur but with a wine coloured shade
8Love it! Because, I love the movie.
My fave xmas movie ever!!
9Love it. I can picture Ralphie feeling the leg up!
10I think the target audience would be a young professional bachelor man. just out of college making some money and has no idea how to pull together a living room, so he goes to urban outfitters and goes, "dude this is sweet".
I could see one put in my living room by my fiance.
11Maybe it's because I really don't love "A Christmas Story", but I hate this lamp. It's so cheesy.
12It's cute and whimsical, a real conversation piece.
13Ugly!
14LOVE IT!
I got one for my brother a few years ago. Targeted customers would be MEN. Bachelors or married men with their own rec rooms (since most wives will hate it). Personally I love the original replica... a 50" deluxe full size leg lamp in the "FRAGILE" Cardboard Box!

15haha! love it. I just might buy this for my dad b/c we love the movie so.
16Fragile...it must be Italian!
17I'm having a conflict.
I hate (x 800) dismembered pieces of women's bodies used as decorations. I think that it speaks to the inherent violence against women that is pervasive in our culture.
I also love the movie, and would like to have this as a Christmas decoration.
Conflicted.
18Love the movie, hate the lamp.
19I think it would be funny as a joke gift for someone who I knew really enjoyed that movie. Or even just as a white elephant gift. I mean, seriously. What would you do with that lamp?
20Not a fan of the movie-or the lamp.
21I agree with lilmiracle...conversation piece
22My husband loves the movie but there is no way I would let him have a lamp like this, it's ugly and tacky.
23It's so quirky and fun. I love it! No idea where I'd put it though.
24i HATE it
25I love the movie, but not the lamp.
26for some reason it just reminds me of something you would see in a boys dorm room.
27lovee it so cute!
28Haattted Ittt!
29Creepy ...
