    I don’t know if it’s physically possible, but I sometimes think what if my office chair breaks and the hydraulic piston shoots through the seat and impales my colon.

    Real Final Destination shit right there.

      Possible trigger warning…

      I read an article a few years ago about this happening in China. There were graphic photos from the ER which I won’t discuss here, but If I remember correctly it was a teenager and he actually died because it ruptured an artery in his colon or something like that. Ever since then I’ve always been ok with spending a little more money for a quality chair. Especially if it’s something you’re going to use every day.
