I like more the Berlin Wall armrest with a ridge in the middle. It would keep over-amorous males on their side and keep two would-be alpha-males from getting into a fight on a flight as has happened. |
|
|
This would make for a nice retrofit device. |

I like all the social grace this idea generated. I thought by the title that the idea was to built chairs with low-cut scoop armrests so a 1 or 2 armed person could rise easier therefrom. |

bob and farmer- I had not fully realized that there was so much political turf could be decided over an armrest. So that's what those hairy-armed gorillas were up to. |
|
|
[bobofthefuture]: There was no original plan to have a satin-covered edition, but that could be worked out for special orders only. |
|
|
[phoenix]- It probably would work best as a retrofit, which would eliminate the difficulties inherent in trying to carry a very awkward and suspicious hunk of rubber around with you, especially with the heightened security these days. Cuprests come standard. |
|
|
[reensure], you may be on to something, if not this specific idea... and as long as people with 3 or more arms stay as rare as they are. |

It should come with a range of 'socks' which can be put
over the armrests. This would allow you to set it up so
that *your* armrest is padded satin with brocade
trimmings but your neighbour's armrest is cheap vinyl.
Thus, everyone would know exactly whose armrest it
was.
Problems may arise if two people sit next to
each other and both want to use their armrest adaptor
on the same armrest. |

Naughty, naughty. But I like it. |

I attempted to address the problem of dueling armrests by saying that you could either have a single or a double adaptor in the description... it's kind of difficult to explain: |
|
|
The adaptor, by default, comes with two "wings" on it. There is a central mounting unit. It has been intensively designed so that if one "wing" is removed from either side, the other wing can be used independently. Thus you wouldn't have to have an alpha male (?) confrontation- you could mount 2 armrests or attach the other person's armrest to yours and then remove it again. I recommend the former. If the other person is creepy and without said armrest, you could still leave part of the existing armrest open for them to use. |
