Boy Killed By Office Chair
So, a 14-year-old boy in China is on the computer, probably sending A/S/L messages to girls on AIM, when the gas cylinder that is used to adjust the height of the chair he’s sitting on explodes, sending chunks of metal into his rectum and killing him.
I think I’ll go take a walk around the office now.

OMG! Is that true? That is horrible! Wonder what brand of chair it is, I want to make sure I’m not sitting on one!

No way!
Joan
Hi Corrin! That’s awful! Even office chairs can kill you! Geez. I wonder if that’s the first fatality due to that cause.

Lynne – My husband doesn’t think it’s true, but it seems feasible to me!

Julie – I think you may have the best solution! Now, to propose that to my boss. Haha.

Oh dear! I never imagined that was possible.
Responding to your ICLW comment, Girl Scout Cookies are actually priced differently depending on geography. Sometimes, the prices vary one town over. I spent $3.50 for these.
The Girl Scouts themselves say it varies from $2.50 to $4.

If you’re paying $6, you may have some Girl Scout grifters in your town!

Wow. Makes me think twice about adjusting the height of my chair – especially while I’m sitting in it. I think my hiney is permanently clinched shut just thinking about this.

Baby – Oh no, I’m being scammed by local Girl Scouts! I might have exaggerated a little bit, but they are definitely in the $5 range in our area.
