Chairs... they are for people! Y'think?

Kaleidoscape Play Studio is currently hosting a Call to Artists for Chair PARTY, (click the title if you haven't heard about it yet and with this sudden awareness for inspired seating, I am giggling at the many ways that chairs have wriggled their way in my silly point of view.
 
Wikipedida says:
A chair is a raised surface used to sit on, commonly for use by one person. Chairs are most often supported by four legs and have a back, however, a chair can have three legs or could have a different shape. A chair without a back or arm rests is a stool, or when raised up, a bar stool. A chair with arms is an armchair and with folding action and inclining footrest, a recliner.
A permanently fixed chair in a train or theater is a seat or, in an airplane, airline seat when riding, it is a saddle and bicycle saddle, and for an automobile, a car seat or infant car seat.  With wheels it is a wheelchair and when hung from above, a swing. A chair for more than one person is a couch, sofa, settee, or "loveseat" or a bench. A separate footrest for a chair is known as an ottoman, hassock or pouffe.

Really now? Interesting...
Then, my mom sends me this little video produced by Facebook with the comment, "Chairs, lotsa chairs" and she's right... there are lots of chairs and I love it!



Who knew chairs were so interesting and for people too? (giggling)
I know... crazy girl writing here. Thanks for believing in my weirdness.
