Only $2700. What a bargain.

Looks extra comfy too!

Well, not so much. Looks like you would slide right off, and if you didn't, I hope the room is quite cold... the lit sign would warm things up nicely.

On the other gripping hand, a shaped/formed bent sign for a chair back would be neat.. and much cheaper.

Conceptual/functional art?

...

Commenting on our directionless society?

"DONT WALK"? And, presumably WALK? Now if it said SIT / DON'T SIT... :)

I mentioned to autographedcat and the others I was with at IRC when I mentioned this that I'd love to install a pressure sensor that switched the chair from a default "Walk" to "Don't Walk" when someone sits in it. Not quite as good as "Sit/Don't Sit" but on makes do with what's on hand.

*stares* Why in the world? I don't get that, as someone we know said. :) Chairs oughta be comfy, ya know?

Btw, interesting new layout. :) What's the style?

[autographedcat.livejournal.com]

It's art, I guess. I did say it was an *improbable* gift. :)

It's an S2 style called "Smooth Sailing". I got bored with the old layout and started playing with the new ones, and this is the one I liked the best. Will likely tweak it some more when I have some spare time. :)

Completely off-topic, but

Is it shareable?
