We've all been there... standing around at some
godforsaken function in a park or function room, with
nowhere to sit as all of the chairs have a pair of sweaty
buttocks ensconced in them already.
When you do get a chair you can't possibly leave it as it
will, immediately you leave, attract
a pair of the
aforementioned buttocks in the space where yours were,
before you got up.
UBCo has recently obtained a large surplus order of
military
backpacks with aluminium tube framing, that we have
modified.
In essence, you slap a quick release toggle on the
shoulder
strap and the chair unfurls from the packframe. Then
you
begin to sit and the straps on the hip belt pull a seat pad
down to the lower buttock/upper thigh area.
Bending slightly further at the waist swings four spring-
loaded legs into place, propping them under the seat pad
as your thighs almost reach the horizontal.
Sit down on the chair, wherever you have decided it is
that
you wish to sit.
To stow the chair, simply stand up and pull the two D
rings
at the shoulders and it all folds neatly into a backpack
again. Twist the toggle to lock the D ring ripcords into
place and go on your way.
For the deluxe version, we can supply a trained monkey
to fling poo at anyone who tries to steal your chair or
meddle with its operation, when you've had a few too
many glasses of lunch.

Have a seat and enjoy a bun. |
|
| |
As a practical joke you could replace the chair with an inflatable boat or lilo. |
|

Needs more jam, bees'n'banjoes |
|
| |
This could interfere with using a toilet. |

[+] I almost ignored it 'cuzza needless complexity, but I got hooked on the D-rings. |
|
| |
What a jolly good idea [+] |
|
| |
The chaise lounge model please. |
|
| |
From the title and the header, I thought this was going to be some kind of robotic flocking chair that detects you're sitting down and dashes under you. |
|
| |
I hate not having a seat. One feels so conspicuous. I
get all self-conscious. I approve of this. + |
|
| |
The only way to improve this would be to integrate them into the pants somehow... |
|
| |
//But that would take all the fun out of pass-the-parcel.//
Musical chairs, shirley? |
|
| |
Chair-ish, these moments. |
|
| |
I'd be a little chairy about making those observations,
[2 fries]. |
|
| |
Just throne it out there... |
|
| |
Sounds about like a milkin' stool. 'Been known for most of a century among milk farmers [link].
None o' that monkey $#!t-flingin' gonna work 'round here! |
|
| |
Except that a strap-on (milking stool or otherwise)
isn't likely to fold op neatly into a backpack, instead
of looking like you have an alien anal probe sticking
out of your butt. |
|
| |
Apparently my reference to ideas past was too obscure. |
|
| |
The chair/suitcase in the second link is awesome
technology - how do they get it to change colour
when the chair folds out? |

Little Purple Robots with tiny cans of paint and brushes. |

Did anyone else visit the 1st link and have the words "pogo seat" pop into their head? |
|

Check the other link to a chair you can wear. |

You had me at poo flinging. [+] |
