If you've been thinking to yourself "I need the stupidest looking ladder that is also the most impractical", then your wait is over. The Cima Ladder has arrived. Made of composite materials and painted either green or pink, it looks ridiculous and you'll probably fall off it. According to the company some of the major inspiration behind the ladder was "like climbing a tree, (the ladder) brings us closer to the basic nature of climbing up to reach the top, climbing as a metaphor of growth and self elevation in life."

Well if that is not the hippiest load of crap I have ever heard. Ladders are made so you can break into 2nd story windows, and have nothing to do with self elevation (except the literal sense). I wouldn't be caught dead climbing this ladder to hang myself.

This is the Construct, within this program we can load anything from furniture, weapons, ammunition and retarded looking ladders.

How about climbing as a way to reach what you need and not as a lame ass metaphor

"Self elevation" not "self evaluation".

It reminds me of something the Jetsons would use, and they had treadmills outside several thousand feet in the air.

That's dumb. What if you use the ladder to paint your house? You would have to stand with one leg beneath the other. Sounds really comfortable.

"I wouldn't be caught dead climbing this ladder to hang myself."

Wail... yes you would. ...Right?

@ Ace: That's true... This ladder is made for climbing all the way to the top... Not very practical...

@Geekologie: Well, since it's made to climb all the way to the top, it MIGHT be practical to break into your sexy neighboors' 2nd story... Oh yeah, boobs.

#7 That gag went right over you head didn't it?

I like climbing left foot first...and flipping the ladder around would be too much work for me.
