official entry: I'M WANT MOAR GAMES !

This chair is the modder's dream come true! Tired of spending days and days modding your old lousy PC just to get the hottest chicks in school????? Stop wasting your energy and get "Chair Mod-X!" This unbelievable ingenuity allows you, YES YOU!, to choose the kind of seat and backing. Why settle for an ordinary chair that has a seat and back already installed? You are a modder so mod away! Want a wooden seat instead of a comfy cushion? Go ahead? Like man meat sticking out of the chair seat for those most intimate of moments? Go ahead, we won't tell! The sky is the limit with this chair! Act now and we will throw in a year membership to your local chiropractor.

Sweet Bloated Beaver Bladders !!!

There appears to be another prize at stake in the contest.

The prize is any game(s) you want on Steam gifted to you that total up to $100 US.

But there's a catch :wtf:

The Steam prize will close prior to the SSD prize.
- If you choose to be in the running for the Steam prize, you will eliminate yourself from the SSD competition.
- If you stay in the SSD competition, you will eliminate yourself from being able to win the Steam prize.
So how much faith do you have in your entry to win either ??

If you want to try for the Steam prize, and thus be removed from the SSD competition, add this line to your official entry ...
"I'M WANT MOAR GAMES !"

If the above line is not in your entry, you will by default be in the running for the SSD and will not be considered for the Steam prize.

Such decisions ....

This new chair is the absolute epitome of modern living and saving space while doing it. The chair can easily accommodate up to four people with little to no discomfort! The chair can be placed in the usual "chair stance" for easy storage or to give your place a new look!

The "Chairanal" is made with industrial grade aluminium and stainless steel and is capable of holding up to 500KG! With NASA's top scientists having designed the chair, without a doubt you can trust that this will be a once in a life time investment opportunity as stocks are going to sell out fast! For only 12 payments of $19.99 you can have this beautiful piece in your room! Call within the next ten minutes and get your choice in a colour of black or grey! That's right folks! You get a free $60 paint job if you call within the next 10 minutes!

*Chairanal accepts no responsibility for rectal injuries*

Hahahaha! Its from a joke. How do you get 4 gay guys to sit on one chair? Flip it upside down.
Well with chair you basically sit on the legs of it XD

For a second I thought they were sitting on the spikes on the top. Now that would do some serious damage.

Official, like a boss

Windows 8 Chair: Useless Is More

I was going to make a nice visual and colorful words and whatnot, but I really don't want to win that badly. So a mini-entry for me.

D007 · Aug 21, 2012

And again I read through the official entries to see people adding things to their chairs.. If you add super bucket seats it is no longer a chair with no seat, it has super bucket seats.. Can I add the rocket launcher and jet pack add on to my chair? You are supposed to take the "Existing" product and sell it. Not add a million things to it to actually make it useful..lol.. Good ads though.. XD

Regardless, bump, this thread needs moar lub.. lube.. love? something like that..

PS: It's not an entry at all, unless you add the words "Official entry" up top..lol..

LGV · Aug 22, 2012

offical one

Buy this chair, make some privacy .
1 place it next to yours.
2. When wife or mother-in-law disturbing you, just say: Oh, please , have a seat, we can have a nice chat!

They should go away, leave you alone for a couple hours.

I dont take any responsibility if someone pick it up and hit you with it.
