In theTwitchclip, Ol_ga can be seen smirking with embarrassment in a Waffle House booth before trying to feed her body pillow companion. As she does so, an off-screen employee can be heard asking if she’s enjoying the meal, and she responds with a quick nod, saying “it’s really good”—all this while wearing a Wolverine t-shirt and a gray fedora. Were this an ironic cosplay at a convention, it would be hilarious. In a random restaurant in the middle of the night, however, it’s arguably more so.

The entire hour-and-a-half affair is preserved on Ol_ga’s Twitch channel under the title “First Time In Waffle House W/ My Pillow Husband,” and there’s not a second in the entire video in which she doesn’t look positively petrified with embarrassment. Perhaps the best moment comes toward the end when a server asks if they enjoyed their meal while members of the chat requested that she claim her husband was going to cover the tab. Shortly after, Ol_ga ran back to her car with the pillow slung over her shoulder, talking to it on the way.
Best of all, Ol_ga’s pillow doesn’t depict a run-of-the-mill anime character from a popular series. It appears to be a custom dakimakura of a pregnant man complete with text reading “I bet he’ll have your forehead, Olga-san.” Not only did this streamer go on a Waffle House date with a body pillow, but she did so with a body pillow with a self-deprecating joke written on it in bright pink. Her commitment to the bit, however embarrassing, is commendable.
Ol_ga has since gained some notoriety among Redditors, and she’s subsequently streamed an AMA with her pillow husband. She can regularly be seen streaming games likeDark SoulsandHollow Knight, but her next stunning feat of IRL bravado is anyone’s guess. Perhaps she’ll take up the time-honoredstreaming tradition of beatingDark Soulswith dance padsorGuitar Herocontrollers with the added bonus of a body pillow by her side.
