Title: Kinda Funny Story About Being So Massive[/csb]
Post by: Al Doggity on August 22, 2015, 09:02:39 AM
I have this little home office area in our apartment and I finally finished setting it up really nicely with shelves and shit . My wife buys me this really nice, white leather designer chair because I have complained about how my previous chairs break so easily. I love the chair. It is beautiful and extremely comfortable. I joke about how I might start sleeping in the chair.

After about three weeks, the chair stops reclining. I tell my wife about the chair not working and she can't believe it. I tell her it's because I'm too heavy. I've weighed over 220lbs my entire adult life and am about 238 right now. I have had problems with office chairs at several of my jobs. These chairs just aren't built for a guy as huge as me, I tell her. She comes to the office, looks at the chair and looks at me like I'm crazy. "If you push the adjustment rod in, it keeps the chair from reclining. You knew that, right? "  

LOL no, I did not know that. I must have accidentally been locking the chairs for years. On top of that, I've probably legitimately broken at least two chairs trying to force them to recline properly, which is why she also believed that these cheap chairs were actually breaking and not just locked into place.  :D :-[ ;D :-[

In the UK we prefer the term 'Bariatric' - http://www.livingmadeeasy.org.uk/chairs/bariatric-riser-recliner-chairs-_-capacity-190kg-and-above-1105-p/ (http://www.livingmadeeasy.org.uk/chairs/bariatric-riser-recliner-chairs-_-capacity-190kg-and-above-1105-p/)

(In the UK we actually have something called 'Bariatric Ambulances' that are marked as such.  What are they?  They are ambulances for 'larger' people.  Imagine the scenario, "erm... Mr Smith needs a BA..*cough*)

Knew a guy your weight who died taking a dump. The toilet cracked and sliced his hamstrings. He bleed out to dead.

That's just the story they told the family when the coroner rolled up on your nude "friend" with his pants down bleeding from his ass.

A toilet breaking at 238 pounds? Wow.

That's "shit" porcelain.

Pun slightly intended.

I've been flattering myself for like a decade that my huge muscles just weren't meant for an office, even though it made no sense! I haven't even always been the heaviest person that has worked in my offices. I rationalized that it was due to my weight being distributed differently.  ::)
