Home is Where My Ass Is.

me: http://www.crateandbarrel.com/family.aspx?c=945&f=24438 I might buy one of these. They have one locally for 399. That's like ONLY 300 bucks. What do you think?

Not me: Oh God. Please don't.

me: WHY NOT? :)

NOT me: Future you is so sitting in one of those chairs right now, with a pipe hanging out of his mouth and wearing tartan slippers.

me: hee hee and MY CANE...

NOT me: WTF is wrong with you?

me: ...I can use my cane! I DON'T KNOW! I have been obsessed since I sat in it.

NOT me: Why can't you want a red sports car and a busty blonde 20 year old like other men your age? You're like a cat going around marking your territory. Except you leave ass-prints instead of your scent.

*Update* I DID buy this chair. In fact this is it. And the little floor, window, lamp is my tiny apartment. I simply chose not to show the where I sleep which is on 2 big King Sized mattresses on the floor with black satin sheets and big red chunky candles all around.

  2. Dude -- That's not 300 bucks...it's 400 bucks. That's ALOT of camera equipment (or one lense in your case.) On the other hand, I have a chair like this except it's a lazyboy and it's black. Once your get the leather warmed up.....Jesus it's friggn awesome. BUY IT!!! Besides, your SAVING 1000.000 by not actually getting it at Crate and Barrel. That's money in the bank!

  3. The fake anonymous thinks you have borrowed it or photoshopped it into your apartment?
    I think you should get a lazyboy. It would be like having your name on it.

  4. I.WANT.THAT.CHAIR.

    And the window and the flooring and the lamp. And that park across the street.

    But you can keep the cane.

  5. Unless that chair has that special "lift" feature that helps you up after you sit in it....I wouldn't be wasting my money if I were you.

  6. I'm surprised someone hasn't said it yet...

    I'll bite the bullet and say it:

    I'm sure he'll leave plenty of his scent in addition to the ass-prints.

    Perhaps that's pointing out the obvious, but someone had to say it (didn't they?). You may now continue with the regularly scheduled edition of JKirlin mocking.

    I'm not sure which is stranger/odder/creepier - the ass-print mini-drama or the 2nd picture in the 'nose' mini-series.

  8. *pouts*

  9. It's LEATHAH!

    You have to bring...

  10. It does look like an incredibly cool chair, though.

  11. Don't worry Kirlin baby -- my kid has peed in my lazyboy about 100 times (that I'm aware of)It ate away the stitching and I had to have it resewn...but the leathah held no odor....no febreeze or bag balm necessary. Besides, cows pee on themselves all the time (I would think anyway. LET THE PARTY PROCEED!!!

  12. But... but... (or is that 'butt'?)Why would you worry about his scent on the chair? I thought jkirlin smelled like vanilla and pipe tobacco and warm flannel and kittens and pine trees and stuff.

    I am crushed.

  14. anon: I don't want a chair made by LOCALS. You mean like Moosehead Furniture which is now owned by crooked politicians? NO WAY! I bought the chair made by ITALIANS as per my roots having been born in Waterbury Connecticut and dragged here screaming and kicking at age 3!

    Well..ok..outsourced to China but isn't everything?

  15. One must be prepared for old age. And we all get older day by day. And if you had to sitt why can not sitt cosy ?
