Time To Rethink the School Desk?
theodp writes "As part of its reimagine the 21st-century classroom project, Slate asks: Is the best way to fix the American classroom to improve the furniture? While adults park their butts in $700 Aeron chairs, kids still sprawl and slump and fidget and dangle their way through the day in school furniture designed to meet or beat a $40 price point. 'We've seen in adults that if you put them in the right chair, their performance increases,' says Harvard's Jack Dennerlein. 'Is the same true for children? I can't see why not.' For school districts with deep pockets, there are choices — a tricked-out Node chair from IDEO and Steelcase can be had for $599."
Guys... Guys... did you see what Spun just did?
Wait for it. Wait for it. You aren't going to believe this one bit.
This guy, Spun, just took a Simpson's reference that is used in every single fucking Slashdot article, and then he... this is the great bit. Pay attention to what he did here: he SPAMMED IT TO THE FIRST POST!
I mean... pure genius! Can you believe it? Magic in the making! How can I ever aspire to such a level of wit and creativity??? We should vote Spun +1kabillion: president of the lulz! Man... it's no wonder how he earned such a low userID: that guy is in TUNE with the Slashdot consciousness! Jealous!
