Daaaamn, is that a Grosfillex Miami monobloc resin outdoor patio chair in white!?

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

That spot looks like it would be swarming with mosquitoes.

Get a small fire going, or a thermacell

I am the storm that is approaching

A storm of cuteness (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)

PROVOOOOOOKING BLACK CLOUDS OF ISOLATION

Adhd'er checking in. I wouldn't last ten minutes in that chair before getting up out of boredom.

[–] BlindPenguin@lemmy.world 1 points 54 minutes ago

I may have to get checked...

[–] ColdWater@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 hours ago

This and some snacks

[–] cattywampus@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Add a fishing pole and a cooler of beer and I'm in.

[–] fubarx@lemmy.world 54 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Why just men? Pretty much anyone seeking nature, the outdoors, and some quiet time would like this.

Until sunset, when the big skeeters roll in.

[–] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago

I defintely know more women that could just sit there and enjoy it than men. Now you add a fishing rod and some cold beers that would level if not completely flip the playing field.

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 28 points 11 hours ago

I worry that's why the chair is empty. Someone got carried off by one of the larger mosquitoes.

[–] ZoteTheMighty@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, that looks fucking great, where's the meme?

[–] meowcar42O@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 5 hours ago

just appreciate the nice view, zote

[–] Crostro@lemmy.world 14 points 10 hours ago

Unless there's biting insects

[–] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 60 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

If it's cool enough that the bugs aren't out, then yes definitely.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 15 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Yeah, bugs are the one thing that could ruin it.

Otherwise best day ever.

We got my wife's dad like a beekeeper hat for when he goes fishing. We'd like to get him back, you know.

[–] Stern@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago

switch me to a adirondack chair and I'm 100% about it.

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 16 points 14 hours ago

Absolutely. Not even a doubt. Bring my speaker for some music, a few preroll's, and a 6pk of beer and it would probably be a perfect day.

[–] you_are_dust@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Looks like a pretty nice spot. Nice and cool in the shade.

[–] poinck@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Except for the chair. I don't like this chair. Give me another chair and a desk to put my foot on. Or: a swing.

[–] AndyMFK@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 8 hours ago

I enjoy your go-to footrest is a desk rather than a footrest

[–] farmgineer@nord.pub 9 points 14 hours ago

Couple of her urs is fine, more with a book. .otherwise, I guess I'm the 1%. Oh, and allergy meds first is a requirement

[–] rounding_error@lemmy.today 4 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

is that water fine to swim in? I could swim all day with occasional breaks in the chair. otherwise sounds terrible.

Also, eyeroll at all these mEn WoUld WoMeN wOuLd memes. It's like the bottom of the barrel greeting cards at a chain pharmacy

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 3 points 10 hours ago

That used to be me. My wife is teaching me about relaxation as a means of clearing the brain so I can be awesome again. Doing nothing for an hour or two is rough work but I'll get the hang of nothing eventually. I could one day be doing nothing all day.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

I'd be lucky to last an hour by myself.
