MikeC Posted May 7, 2002 Posted May 7, 2002 shopping for a new chair. I've been looking at them on and off for a while now. Unfortunately now my hand has been forced. The wheel on the bottom of my chair just broke.
Darth Evad Posted May 7, 2002 Posted May 7, 2002 Carefull. You don't want to get one that feels good for 30 seconds in the store but when you get home...it sucks. I borrowed one from work for a week to try it at home before I spent $150-$200 on one. It sucked. Just some advice.
Wraith 8 Posted May 7, 2002 Posted May 7, 2002 lol.. i once worked at an office suply company... and they selled some old desk chairs for like 20 dollars.... we bhought one..and when i left there i got a brand new office chair... very expensive one.... it sucked.. and the 20 dollar one is realy good..

gavor Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 I had a favourite chair that literally exploded once. I leaned back and some metal bit just gave up. The whole spring assembly blew itself apart and I fell on the floor. Another one broke when my girlfriend jumped on me whilst I was playing Half-Life. It was spectacularly uncomfortable.
VC Anthony Posted May 9, 2002 Posted May 9, 2002 I think your chair blew up when last nights curry hit your pants.
gavor Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 Greetings VC Anthony. I really should use my Captain Shane thing for continuity . Com, no I wasn't injured in the way you're probably thinking . When the first chair broke I basically just hit the floor like a sack of potatoes. It hurt, but I wasnt permenantly maimed.
Gaalgoth Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 I've had one of those...see, the past two chairs of mine I've found in peoples trash. shut up. anyways, the first one i was leaning back in and said to my friend "I probably shouldn't be sitting like this" and bam the back broke off. I fell over backwards and ended up in a wierd kama sutra-esque position with my head and neck flat on the floor, my back perpendicular to the floor, and my lower torso parrallel to the floor. Damn that hurt.
gavor Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 Let that be a lesson to us. Chairs are a higher power and must be treated with respect. <suspicious look at work chair>
MikeC Posted May 10, 2002 Author Posted May 10, 2002 I can see the Fox special now. When Chairs Attack!
gavor Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 When good chairs turn bad Starring Kitchen Chair Laz-E-Boy Recliner Computer Chair (boooooooooo!) They won't be laughing when the chairs start dropping.
