Don’t you love the days following a rainstorm? The streets seem to gleam, the air is cleaner, and people are generally in a better mood to finally see the sun again. The only thing that sucks are all those wet benches and chairs. Fortunately clever designers came up with a simple solution.

    What a great idea. I wonder why it took someone so long to come up with it.

    Great, until it rains again after someone has turned it over so the underside is also wet. What might be better is a quick drying surface or some sort of way to wipe them dry that's attached to the bench.

    TD: you are the definition of raining on a parade.

    If it's raining that often, who would be going outside to sit on a bench? This allows a bench to be used right after a rainstorm. Notice the word "after"? Where do you live -- cartoon land?

    ...or someone turns it while you are sitting on it...

    This is seriouslydangerous. I can't believe this may actually hit the streets. People will get mangled and spat out all over by the deadly machinery.

    They could use the electricity generated by people turning it to power a heating system to evaporate the water and warm the seat.

    I can't wait to get drunk with my friends and go sleeping-hobo-dumping once these things make it to my city.

    bahahah imagine if it was like loose and someone sat down and it rolled to the other side while they were sitting on it and flung them off like a treadmill XD

    I smell a lawsuit when someone gets either rolled off of one of these by someone else, or the mechanism breaks and it just slides freely, resulting in a broken neck or something.
