May 31 2009Sweet!: Plant Some Trees, Grow A Chair

grow a seat.jpg

The Growing Chair is a clear plastic frame in which you grow trees to form a seat shape so that, in your old age, you can sit around drinking moonshine and reminiscing on the days when you had to use power tools to make a chair (or were Amish). Personally, I love the idea BECAUSE I AM ONE WITH GAIA. And by one with Gaia I mean a nudist. Except I wear jean shorts.

@9.

Hopefully.

So what you are saying is that you are a nevernude??

Looks like a salad with legs.

@3 you fail

@9 yes hopefully, but then you have another problem to deal with - and that of course is getting rid of all those damn kids.

I'd use this chair to plant some seeds & grow some weeds

Poison Ivy chair! then I'll make my nudie friends sit on it..

Loving the AD reference

This is amazing.
But one problem - chairs are usefull, because you can move them form one place to another ;D Ant this one does not look anything like a triffid to me XD

Damn hippies...

this reminds me of our society. nothing says "human" like a tree encased in plastic. just wait 5-10 years when the tree outgrows the plastic, breaks it, and spends the rest of it's life with giant shards sticking out of it's trunk. great idea guys.

The difference with a Rotan chair is that this one needs regular water.

This is only great when it's useful.Doesn't look comfortable to sit on.

you're a nevernude? i didn't see you at the convention...

@ 2/18 thank you I try
@8 your welcome I love you to

You mean: You're welcome, I love you too.

"Your" is a second-person possessive noun (as in 'your hash pipe' or 'your fu@%^cking fault', ect...).

"To" is a preposition of direction (as in '...to the bar' , ...'to cut off his oxygen')

Hope this helps you FU%*&^###@$%^&&*CKING douche-bag.

you suck joshua, really bad

@26: I think the idea is that you remove the plastic when it's done, and use tree species' that won't grow much larger.

Nice try at sounding pseudo-intellectual by downing humanity, though. Because of the seven billion of us, none of us our intelligent except for you, right? Right?

And just like that, I make myself look like an idiot. Are, not our*

26 remains a douche, however.

@34

No, just you alone are both a douche and an idiot for attempting to slam someone who was making a personal point. I don't necessarily agree with him, but at least I understood what he was saying. You however, are just an illiterate moron (and I wasn't even commenting on your grammar mistake).

LOL, AD nevernude ref: FTW!

@35: Thanks! I'm glad you took the time to lower yourself to my standard, or possibly lower (as I at least made a point with my previous comment.)

I fail to see what "personal point" he was making. Is he, personally, a plastic chair? Or perhaps a tree? Does he take it personally that trees are forced to seat people? Or is it that he personally has something against "humans"? Because if that's the case, that's exactly what I was replying to.

So, I may be an illiterate moron (though I see no evidence to base it on) but you yourself are apparently no better than I. Thanks for trying though. Perhaps someday you'll have something better to base an insult directed toward me on than a simple grammatical error. I await that day with hopes high.

HG happens to be correct. The chair is to be removed when the shape of the plant is finalized and can stand on its own. Also, I really don't see a personal point from scurl that makes any remote sense. My only guess is that he thought to make an anti-establishment, pro-environmental comment and only really got the "mental" part down. And GRAMMERNAZI.....go suck a tailpipe.

Scurl -

Hahaha! FAIL! Unless you meant the it's just like us "humans" to want to run around and use everything as a chair... To which I totally agree! Here, kitty-kitty!

GRAMMARNAZI -

What is the point of correcting grammar if you forget the most obvious blunder?

It's - contractor for it is. Its - possessive pronoun, as in - My cat did not appreciate me trying to sit on it, and therefore, just scratched its claws right up my backside. Now I won't sit on anything for a week... oh cruel world!

Anyway reason I clicked anyway was to that Geekie for the nevernude reference. I love it!

The elves in the Eragon series would just "sing" the trees into chairs, none of this tossing about with plastic molds. They could probably make one that reclines, too. This one looks like you'd have to be a Puritan to have anything resembling a comfortable sitting experience. And how do you scoot it up to the table?

@39

Thanks angela for your sharp eyes.

truth is that I didn't really miss the contraction (it is), I just stopped reading the posts last night before before "HG" and his boyfriend "Jaded Icon" started harassing me.

@40
You scoot the table up to the chair o_O

Anyway, I want one, and thankfully I appear not to be the only one liking the AD reference. Nice.

@ 39

My apologies GRAMMARNAZI. I did not realize that you were this sensitive. Now that I know, any comments in the future regarding how you viciously attack other commenters for grammar or opinions will be scaled back. Again, I am truly sorry and hope you can forgive me and HG (my apparent love muffin) for our crass suggestions that your mother should have adopted a monkey instead.


Must See!!!

@GRAMMARNAZI
HG and Jaded Icon are right. GRAMMARNAZI, why are you so obsessed with grammar? Why can't people make one little tiny microscopic mistake. And there was not a personal point at all on the 26th comment... And also, I put a regular period on my second question instead of a question mark there just to see if you would catch that. I'm sure you did.

@45

sure I did..........but what's worse is that you write in long-winded-open-ended sentences.

Yea .. This is incredibly cool. Very nice. I enjoyed with this.

@ 46

Ha Ha Ha! Sorry, I really thought that was funny. Now back to our dual of wits......now if I can just find my wits......they were right here! (looks through fanny pack)

I... um... also added the long-winded-open-ended sentences... on purpose...

@GRAMMARNAZI

HA! You didn't start you sentence with a capital letter and you didn't put a space after all those periods! But seriously, what are long-winded-open-ended sentences?

@50

Not important doodZilla, Just keep on writing.

@51

Your whistling cavernous anus is a long winded, open ended sentence.

Just like your Mom.

@51

Do YOU even know what a "long-winded-open-ended sentence" is, or are you just saying that to keep me distracted from the fact that you didn't start your sentence with a capital letter and you didn't put a space after all those periods on comment #46?

I'm sorry I was being such a penis, guys. It's been a long couple of days. I recently told my mom and my girlfriend I was gay. HG, I'm sorry. He wasn't making a personal comment at all. Jaded Icon, I'm sorry I implied that you were HG's lover. I want to be your lover, if you're a guy. DoodZilla, I should have listened to you too. I don't know what a long-winded-open-ended sentences are. I was just making that up. Again, sorry for being a big, giant, throbbing, multicolored penis.

@54 my pants

@55

I'm Serious.

@54/56

YOU CAN PRETEND TO BE ME AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE, IF THAT'S HOW YOU GET YOUR KICKS.

UNFORTUNATELY, YOU YOU ARE NOT CONVINCING ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY IMITATE ME, NOT NOW;NOT EVER.

@57

Who are you?

umm, question. How do you get the plastic chair off so you can make more tree-chairs?

@above

You melt it off.

@59

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh... I read your question wrong. First you melt it off and then you buy a new mold.

@59

Seriously though, I think you take it apart then you put it back together and plant new trees.

he's a never-nude, :P

itd be badass if you could take the frame off and sit on just the little trees grown into the shape of a chair
