Ahhh, teh intarwebs, how useful you are at unloading junk on the lazy and unsuspecting masses. Look at what I just came across – The Perfect Hawaii Chair
… combines the ancient art of the Hula with patented 2,800 RPM Hula motor to create an easy-to-use waistline slimming and fat burning aerobic workout exercise machine that take the work out of your work.
After snorting in laughter over the sales video (see link above), I thought, “Sit in your chair, continue to type and click away at your desk and have a machine jiggle your cellulite around. Hey, maybe I can pass this off as a health/ergonomics expense.” On further introspection, I realized that the combination of patookus moving in a tight elliptical orbit and put-upon eyes would end up in seismic models and cross sections that look like this:
Oh well, back to One Thing At A Time.
Hee! Apparently, the Wham-O! company that put out the original Hula Hoop only made ten thousand dollars off the whole craze.
That chair also sounds like a really really bad idea for a birthing chair on a turntable somebody once had. Not only do you suffer horrific labor pains, you get dizzy as all hell in the process. Nice.
