petel's latest project?

"The chair comes with a stereo, nitrous oxide booster, parachute and a
"hell yeah it's fast" sticker ... It quoted one interested party of
"racers" as saying they lived outside Minnesota and the chair would "no
longer be a menace to your town". "

 

Oh, an actual chair. I was vaguely hoping it was an outfit.

Not just a "chair".

A La-Z-Boy.

Show some respect, man.

 

Oh, come on. Does it have 3 QD interchangeable wheels (plus spare)? Five
shock absorbers? Reverse gear? A ring-piece? A clutch that would make a
brave man weep? I think not.

Mind, I'm intrigued by the possibilities implied by "Minnesota police can
auction off vehicles seized in drink-drive cases or /keep them for official
use/ "...

They have "Gliding/swivel motion" and "Heat & massage". I submit that
you set your sights too low.

That would be the "Donut-o-mat" and "Pastrami-u-like" functions. See?
SEE?

A little *vision*; that's all I ask.

 

....and the guts to see it through.

 

Pish. I would counter with a 3-axis corkscrew at one hundred miles per hour
on the wrong side of the road - who can dismiss a vehicle that disconcerts
its pilot more than its passenger? - and a rubber saddle that steams up the
pillion's visor whilst crossing Belgian cobbles.

Can you envision Dodger falling asleep in one?

I have owned many vehicles that have disconcerted their pilot more than
their passengers[1]. I am equally untroubled by your visor-steaming
antics. I refer you to Comrade Sweller's antics with respect to a
certain Dumpy Party. Had that been a La-Z-Boy, she'd have gnawed his
party card.

Raw.

With equanimity, but little pleasure.

[1] Some of whom were largely conscious.

 

Surely any woman of character and sensibility would prefer the dynamics of
the aero-engine to those of the ditch-pump or lawnmower?

Precisely. Whereas, by falling asleep in a sidecar, Dodger brought mirthful
delight and wonderment to a notable percentage of the population of Europe.

You need a more reliable source for your roofies.

Yeah, but where are you going to find one of them on UKRM?

I would expect no less. Fewer. Less... Umm... Few... Le... Littler.

<points to Rohypnol Party Seven>

 

I'm sure we could get someone to knock one up in their shed.

Bigger. Much bigger.

Seven at a time? Seriously impressed.
