Most Awkward Chair Promo Ever

You know, this looks like a great chair – but do they have to focus so much on the benefits to the groin area? I don’t think I’ll be taking my underwear advice from them either.

    Extreme rice: Or how to make a big deal out of nothing. :-D Neat!!! :-D

    That floatplane is just awesome- I'd immagine that cameraman nearly wet his pants.

    I've been peeling eggs like that for years. Only problem is it doesn't work very well when they're still warm.

    The Extreme Rice one is Retarded, but was made up for the by the Plane Crash, which was excellent.

    I'm gonna have to try the egg one. I usually crack the egg then roll it to crack the rest of the egg. The shell will usually come off in 1 big clump or 2. Very easy, but not as easy as that.

    Okay- So I took a turn at the eggpeeling too.
    - 1st try: ...Forgot to boil the egg... Had to wash not only my hand but also the face of my wife.
    - 2nd try: -Wife put me outside in the garden- ...Tapped too hard so the egg was sqashed.
    - 3rd try: Gripped the egg too firm- Yuck...
    - 4th try: Correct! ...But the dog caught it.
    - 5th and 6th try: broke some glassware- switched over to plastic- Wife by now hysteric.
    - 7th try: I know, I know... They did tell to EX-hale... Luckily my wife knew the Heimlich-manoueuvre.
    - 8th try: Never happened- Wife took away any eggs left and put me comparatively safe at my pc.

    ...No- wayyyyyy to complicated for me....

    Foreigner1 I would love to have seen a video of this happening. :)

    Oh, the plane video was insanity. If I was the camera man I would be hoofing it if I saw the plane getting that close to me.

    Extreme rice...must make myself some...soon.

    I love boiled eggs. I also have asthma. Thus, the trick of peeling eggs so quickly works about as well for me as blowing up balloons; i.e., not at all. I'd have my husband do it, but he hates eggs!

    I don't think I'll be eating any eggs the chef's blown on, thanks.

    That's as awkward as watching someone's genitals relaxing in the chair.
