What do you sit on?

Recommended Posts

I sit on my bum.  I tried sitting on my head, like Mork from Ork, but I could not see the computer screen.

Great suggestion! I'll start working on it as soon as this darn hurricane (now a tropical storm) gets off of my house. The storm was another non-event here. I'm in the middle of the state about 45 miles NE of Orlando. Maximum wind gusts were 36 mph (so far) and it looks like we'll see less than 3 inches of rain.

I quite like my GT Omega gaming chair. Quite comfortable even for extended sim sessions. But if I was going to buy a new chair now, I'd grab a SecretLab

A number of my friends have one of these and they are great chairs.

I gotta tell you about my old man chair.  I don't sit at my computer in it but I do watch old movies on television while sitting in it.

It's a LazyBoy power recliner.  It has four independent adjustments...the foot rest, the tilt back, the head rest, and the lumbar support.  You can adjust each one and then press another button for 3 seconds and it remembers the setting.

I have two settings.  The reclining position and the more upright position.  I don't get much exercise walking because of arthritis in my feet.  In the upright position I can flex my feet and rock...Oh Yeah!  It's also a rocker in the upright position.

Best chair I've ever owned.

The tires are worn.  The shocks are shot.  The steering is wobbly.  But the engine still runs fine.

My wife and each have one Noel. And, I agree. It's the best chair ever for watching the tube or just catching a nap.

Not to mention the rudder pedals.  🙂

Aren't all chairs and seats butt magnets?

When people are standing in a waiting room because all the chairs are filled, when someone gets up to leave that chair is certainly attracting some standing up butts.

You see the same thing on any sort of public transportation conveyance like busses or subway cars during rush hour.

Why is the word permitted in Sue's post just above mine but it's not allowed in mine?
