There is a variant of the chair that have gaps in the seat to prevent rain from pooling. While it’s a useful feature, it also presents a danger because sitting on them can cause the gaps to widen, allowing things like testicles to pass through, and get caught when the person stands up.
Enjoy picturing that thought.
If your testicles get caught in the gaps, there are other problems going on.
Victims are usually older men who hang lower than normal.
ouch
At a shop I used to work at, we had these old computer chairs with hard plastic seats. The plastic would flex and crack just forward of where the metal seat pan was, so when you sat down you’d inevitably apply a load to the front edge and open this crack up.
We joked these were Trump brand chairs given their tendency to grab ya by the pussy.
The one in the thumbnail has a gap
Yeah I’d say the ones with drainage is just a variant.
And there are different types. That commenter is probably referring to the kinds which have very long narrow slits in the seat. Which could probably catch your balls if the plastic got stretched or warped.
These chairs remind me of an over weight relative who was visiting in Arizona, where a friend had a covered back deck with these chairs. Our relative sat in one, not aware that the heat melts those things even when shaded. She flipped over backwards into the flower bed behind her, fortunately the deck was only about foot off the ground so she wasn’t hurt. It was very funny to watch though.
I hate these things unreasonably hard. They’re horrible for the environment, they’re sketchy if old and they’re asshole ugly.
In some parts of the world they probably provide seating for like 99% of the population. Like every picture I’ve seen of west Africa with a cafe or a gathering, it’s always these chairs everywhere.
True, but doesn’t change that they are an abomination.
I’m way too fat nowadays to be a monobloc enjoyer 😭
Now if only they could make a chair that blocks cancer.
