Iron Throne

Look carefully at the photo below:


It's basically a chair made of swords. If you want to know its origins, go watch "Game of Thrones" on HBO, or better yet, read the series.

This chair was built by a king for him and his descendants to sit on. "A king should never get too comfy on a throne," he declared, and I quite agree. Only that applies to others as well. Like bosses. Bosses should sit on chairs like that, so they don't get too comfortable there giving orders and asking for this and that. Clients too. Especially clients. They should sit there when thinking of more requirements for other people to do, maybe that would make them think "is this really necessary?"

Otherwise when one gets too comfortable, one keeps thinking of what to get other people to do, which is not a good thing for the "other people".

Now to think of it, government officials should sit there, especially members of parliament. Then maybe they would have more things to worry about than 'Batu Gajah MP tiap tiap bulan bocor" and other assorted worthless statements. On the other hand, due to the discomfort of resting on their asses, they might be more fond of standing up and waving kris (what's the plural of kris? krises?) in the air, which would not be a great thing for the country overall.

It would also make people exercise more if they had to sit in it, because oversized butts might get cut. The only drawback of this seat, as I see it, is that it wouldn't be very good as a toilet seat. Otherwise nobody could relax on it, and people would never get their business done.
