    Oh defo don’t feel too bad about that! They’re all like that, honestly, for everyone I know who has gotten one. The thing is, while they’re not like… La-Z Boi or whatever a big comfy chair is-comfy, you should able to sit in it for a solid 8-10+ hours in a day without it hurting your back, bum, or legs. My previous chairs were pretty comfy, but fucked my shit up after a bit if sitting. I’m also not huge and one had foam and one had mesh, and both got soooo flat I was sitting on plastic after like two years.

    I also expected to sit in an areon B and have it feel GODLY after the internets told me it would be, but really it’s just a thing ya gotta adjust every setting to make I fit your body.

    I adjusted the one I tried a ton and made it feel nice, but the Mirra 2 had a crazy adjustable rocking toughness, and you can unlock it so it rocks all the way FORWARD, and there’s two levels of rocking back—back, and wayyyy back. I do more relaxing than at-computer-work all day even when working at home so I went for that one.

    I would kill for an Aeron when I have to go into the office. I’m sitting up a lot more there and lounging less.

    I only skimmed a couple reviews because I like going into games blind. My favorite game experience I’ve ever played was *Ragnarok Online”, which had basically no quests or goals other than “be in the world and make a name for yourself amongst all the other godly player characters who sit around and chat wearing hats.”

    No direction or NPCs telling you what to do. Move one map over to explore a new place and get one-shotted by a flower from across the map doing 5x as much damage per hit as your max health. Then come back after you’ve explored for 40 hours and kick fuckin flower ass for eight hours and lose a day of your life grinding and chatting.

    I think Kenshi might be my kinda game.

    Gawd I love drinking but I can’t do it anymore cuz very specific things (used to drink 10+ drinks every night for almost half a decade and tbh it was the best thing ever aside from the weight gain and the fact that if I kept going it would kill me) so now I’m just into some drugs I like.

    It’s been ages since my last drink and I’m VERY lucky, I went from years of ultra heavy drinking to nothing cold turkey (in a controlled setting, no anti-seizure meds or benzos either) and no seizures, no withdrawals, no DTs. Just crazy bad sleep for a few weeks and then 6-8+ hours a night every night after about a month. Since I stopped drinking, I’ve lost almost 20% of my total weight, and I’m eating way more than I used to. Turns out it’s a sick diet cutting out 2,000+cal of booze every day, you can eat as much as you physically can and you’ll still lose weight even sitting around all day and working a sedentary job, never exercising.

    I wish I liked THC more, but it depends on the day. Sometimes it’s nice! It’s just about time for my tri-annual heroic dose of X, though. It’s been more than a year and that’s unacceptable.
