I fix office chairs for a living and I'll be honest: if you spent less than 300$ on your chair then you're gambling with your rear end. Decent chairs are designed in a way that there's some physical part between you and the cylinder and cheap chairs... are not.

Milo and POTUS posted:Apparently it happens more than you would think lol I had a chair do this to me. It was a cheapo amazon office chair, and day two it gave way and burst through, but the fabric on the seat stopped it. It did, however, bruise me in an uncomfortable area. It made me learn that I have a bad habit of slamming down on chairs instead of carefully sitting, which is a bad idea with cheap chairs At least they gave me a refund for it  I switched to something more expensive, which makes sense really -- if my rear end is going to be on this thing all day for work I'd prefer not to have a chance of getting speared because I sat down too hard

I am now feeling good about having found every cheap chair I ever sat in entirely uncomfortable so that has probably kept me safe, but like, I definitely once noticed that my chair said "max weight [50 pounds below you]" and thought I should actively consider this relevant going forward But yeah every chair I have had for the past 15 years has a steel plate between you and the hydraulics so that is nice

Bridge is for the olds. Euchre is good though, if you can find 3 other people that know how to play. I learned it at drinking parties as a midwestern teenager, so it's not that complicated.

Yeah, euchre rules. That's the card game to play after looking at bridge one time and realizing it's not for you.

The few people I've met that knew what Euchre was were all from the midwest, aside from a couple of canadians. I learned it in Illinois, moved to Tennessee, couldn't find one person to play with, everyone just played Spades. It's like Spades with half the cards and a few different rules, but no one ever wanted to learn.

Takes No Damage posted:Post/avatar combo on point. I haven't played bridge in 25~ years, and I understood basically all of that. Not exactly sure what a weak jump shift is though, I don't think that was on my convention card. I can't seem to track down any facts, but it's very possible that a weak jump shift just wasn't a thing when I was playing. Edit: My professional bridge friend says they're at least 30 years old. I guess I've forgotten or was never taught. The General fucked around with this message at 05:12 on Feb 5, 2023 |

An entire column of poo poo like "Double 8's are exposed, crosswise. East guards with Findelmans bluff, South presents The Devils Basket, 7's over 3's. North presses attack, all cards transition cordially. West parlays Kings, reverse Jacks, the ladies advanced four-score." It was the Retro Turbo-Encabulator for blue-hairs.

Ive had my current office chair for maybe 10 years now, and its faultless except for the plastics on the arm rests. I cannot find a brand or model and the place I purchased it from doesn't have records of cash counter sales so I am poo poo outta luck finding a new version. Not pictured but cursed, PLEASE goons, run a carpet shampoo vacuum over your chair once in a while. sweat and farts are in there.
