motorised beanbag

a large conventional beanbag that contains a *creaking, sinister sounding mechanism that will slowly revolve the beanbag and move it across the floor in a completely random way. a little practise is required to keep on top of this perambulating yet comfy gargantuan device. the little beads will rush and tumble like a monster marshmallow rainstick.

complicated body movements are necessary to make the beanbag veer in any required direction and some training may be required, for the rider to be familiar with the best way to lean, to achieve this (which may or may not be the most obvious – a knowledge of motorcycling may actually be a disadvantage).

the idea really is to aid those helpless/hapless victims caught up in a beanbag who don’t want to go to all the trouble of struggling to extricate themselves just to retrieve the remote or answer the phone or fetch a drink etc.

some unfortunate sitters may suffer motion sickness and it is advisable that a handy bucket is available and remember not to throw up into the wind (that is, if you get gale force winds in your sitting room – well, you just might have taken the bag out into the garden on a nice sunny day and by law, we need to point these things out to consumers. oh, yes and make sure that the budgie, hamster and other small pets are out of harms way)

*hey, its my idea, I just envision it this way.
