Have you ever sat on a chair, other piece of furniture or something else that collapsed after you sat on it?

 

  It’s never happened to me, but I have seen it happen with others.

Oh, yeah.  I've flattened several chairs, 2 patio swings, and a nightstand.  

I have but it was because it was a cheep lawn chair  and not because I was still packing my Christmas fat (I pack on 10 pounds or so ever Christmas and it takes me a couple months to drop it). I have seen it happing to a lot of other people and it sure is funnier when it happens to them. Cheers and happy weekend!

Once my office chair began to tilt side to side and front to back while I was sitting.  I just learned to sit gently and not squirm.  It became habit.  Then one day I leaned and stretched to reach something and the thing fell apart.  I sat on my office floor laughing for a few minutes then got up, got a new one that I had in the storage room, assembled it, and continued my day.  Someone said I should have saved the steel mechanism that was under the seat.  Since that is what failed I was not in agreement with him.  Anyway, ,,,,

I once sat on one of those cheapo plastic preschool chairs, thinking it was as sturdy as the chairs with my children's Fisher Price table and chairs set. It wasn't and both back legs just sort of bent to the floor. At least it wasn't a far fall, the chair was only about a foot off the ground. I don't know what I was thinking! They're made to seat a four-year old and are found at dollar stores! LOL. 

Both. It's hilarious when it happens to someone else, not so much when it happened to me.
