There’s no hiding the fact that I am completely and utterly useless when it comes to walking long distances. And I don’t think I’m alone. Our legs suffer atrophy from being at our desks so long, but walking is needed sometimes. The Paraseat offers a way for us lazy heads to stop every twenty seconds or so to take a break.

The Paraseat is actually a portable seat with a handle that is made to latch on to poles, including those on the subway! You might look a little funny, but you’ll have the last laugh when the other people left without a chair start buckling in the knees. — Andrew Dobrow

This is almost as scary as waking up in a bath tub with one of your kidneys missing. Or I guess the most romantic idea ever depending on your point of view. Handsome and wealthy Kurt Fulson never expected to have his surgeon creatively flirt with him.

After taking a spill snowboarding, Fulson needed to have surgery performed to reconstruct his left leg. When he woke up, he saw the phone number and the name Sandy, stitched into the side of his leg. The mystery woman named “Sandy”, was actually Dr. Sandra Nemington, head surgeon of the team responsible of repairing Fulson’s leg.

Dr. Nemington insists that her masterful stitching will not become a permanent scare, just in case things were to fall through on her plan. Body mods like this seem quite scary. Fulson maintains that he is still unsure of whether he will call, mentioning her making him “weak in the knees”. — Andrew Dobrow
