The Chair
“There it is!”
“That’s the chair you were talking about?”
“Yup. What do you think?”
“This is the chair you want to take home?”
“Yes!”
“Why?”
“I’m sorry?”
“Why do you want us to have this chair?”
“Because it’s a chair. I’m sure we could use it.”
“What for exactly?”
“Er, sitting on?”
“You want to sit on that chair?”
“Sure.”
“It’s covered in moss. Or have you failed to notice that?”
“I know it’s covered in moss, but we could remove it somehow.”
“Somehow? Like how exactly?”
“I hadn’t really thought about it.”
“Big surprise there.”
“I just thought it looked like a good chair and we should take it since no one else seems to want it.”
“Yes you’re right there. I’m pretty sure no one else wants it.”
“We could reupholster it.”
“And you know how to do that?”
“Why are you so negative all the time?”

zomg, we have a green and a brown Lazy Boy recliner chairs exactly like those… Minus the dirt, moss, and caved in arm rest closest to us in the pic, LOL. We do have some cat hair for your added allergies however. 😀
Funny, as I was reading this I was expecting it to be Jess and her wife, LOL.

I had a chair similar to the one too (minus the moss), but I had to leave it behind when I moved, though it had belonged to my dad and was quite old and starting to fall apart I miss it though.

Not much you can do if it’s falling apart though.
Nothing lasts forever.

Love this. Started with a chuckle, ended on a good laugh. Excellent. Comedy is truth taken to extreme, and that was extreme

The chair is perfectly fine. If anything I would cut up the turf around it, sterilise it somehow and preserve it so that it’s an installation in its own right.
