I mean, heavy hallucinogens could/should still be part of the equation.

the amount of times i've said "that's crazy dude" in one of these chairs probably numbers in the thousands

[–] Corngood@lemmy.ml 19 points 9 months ago (2 children)

That was my office chair for most of my adolescence, until it got sick of me leaning my fat ass on the back legs, and betrayed me.

You were not the choosen one.

I am a very skinny/lanky dude, and I've even snapped the back legs off of several of these chairs over the years just from leaning/rocking back and forth on them.

I am a big dude, but due to a necessary increased awareness of flimsy chairs I’ve learned to sit down in these things slowly and vertically.

I think the last time I broke a chair it was my hand going through an arm rest while stabilizing myself, lol.

My back hurts, just from thinking about sitting in this for more than 5 minutes T_T

there’s always the Slavic squat …

Gotta get better posture then. (I'm in the same boat)

Transcendent wisdom? Usually I'm just spacing out, saying "uh huh, wow," and nodding my head while my cousin rambles on about whatever antivax conspiracies she's been sucked into lately.

It's one of those things that make me say "OK my parents MAY have a few of those in their garden. Gotta see them to be sure, maybe. But it was a thing in that ill defined era maybe, so, you know, maybe."

Sorry for my ignorance but is this supposed to be a chair in AA? Or group therapy?

[–] roscoe@startrek.website 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

It's just a generic outdoor chair as common as a red Solo cup. The kind of chair many people have found themselves sitting in late into the evening shooting the shit, drinking, etc.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

Neither. These are found in backyards across America. OP is saying that billionaires have never sat down and listened to ordinary folks.

AA and / or group therapy would be in metal folding chairs. Churches like metal folding chairs because they last a long time.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 3 points 9 months ago

A bit of alcohol and weed with those chairs and i can invent anything... but i forget it the bext day

[–] dudinax@programming.dev 1 points 9 months ago

How about them Chiefs

[–] wolfshadowheart@slrpnk.net 1 points 9 months ago

It's not green. This is blasphemy!

The white ones are always dirty, but the green ones are clean because I can't see the dirt. Duh!
