Wanted: Hard, Wooden, Uncomfortable Chair

Yesterday The Senator was playing in the livingroom while The Governor napped. I grabbed my book and sat down in a chair in the corner of the livingroom.

The Senator walks over and says,

Mom, I'm kinda playing in here by myself.

Oh. Well, can't I just read quietly in the corner here?

Well, the Time Out chair is pretty comfy.

I was impressed with his round-a-bout way of hinting for me to get lost. The Time Out chair is located in the far corner of the kitchen. It's a wing-back chair and apparently, not enough of a deterrent.

Anyone have a really uncomfortable chair just taking up space...waiting to be taken to the dump? Preferrably with some rusty nails sticking up through the seat?

Apparently discipline has been getting a bit too "comfy" here at the Outpost.

Try an Adirondack chair - I think the design was rejected by Torquemada as beyond the pale.
