Included: heat, water, refrigerator, a surplus of electrons



If you rub the chair really quickly on your hair -- thus transferring extra electrons -- and then place it on the wall, it should stick, as the wall will be more positively charged than the furniture. Try this at home, kids!

No matter how many years might pass, Sally never overcame her childhood fears of the time-out chair.

How many black-eyes have resulted from corner of that hanging chair?

That must be where the fairies sit when they visit

Wow. Do you think we could do that with a family of white plastic Chairs at the a Pimp/Velour/Bordello listing house?

Oh wow, this is in my sister's neighborhood. Looks like a nice place. Maybe she and her husband should move there and make some babies (as long as the chair isn't included).

I still cannot figure out how that is meant to be aesthetically pleasing. Seriously. Unless maybe you're also putting all the paintings on the floor for that whole funky juxtaposition look.

They must be Belgian. In Belgium, the honored dinner guest sits on a wall-mounted chair so everyone can see him/her. I learned that from Wikipedia.

It's a Shaker thing. In Shaker communities, they would hang all the chairs on the wall when not in use, although I never understood if that was supposed to be for ease of cleaning or to discourage people from sitting around when they ought to be working on something.

BUT these people clearly have other, non-hanging seating all over the place, so why do just the one chair?

I think it's like the bumblebee - the chair doesn't know it can't levitate, so it continues to defy gravity.

In the movie The Truth About Cats and Dogs, Janeane Garofalo's character has a chair hanging on her wall that she uses like a shelf for her mail & etc. I always kind of thought it was neat, but I'm not sure it quite works in this particular house... or for the purpose of a sale.
