I like it… I like it… but I feel they could be doing more with it. Hold on:

Ah, there we go.

    “Boldly to go…!” No, that sounds awkward…

    “To go boldly…!” No, that doesn’t have punch…

    Dammit! Go boldly, and split the #&*@ infinitive!

    “To boldly go-” yes that’s it, that’s it EXACTLY! “-where no chair has gone before!”

    Wait…

    The Enterprise really ties that room together.

    Sotty: “Queen to Queen’s Level 3.”

    Spock:”Queen to King’s Level 1.”

    Bones: “Dammit! Tell them to cut the code games Jim. I just wanted to change the channel so I could watch King of Queens.

  5. Jusitn says:

    Hmm. I wonder if the pieces of bamboo are tuned so that each section resonates at a different tone, so you can play the furniture like some of those bamboo wind chimes they sell…

    MAD photoshop skills, Sarah!! Nice job!

    • Sara says:

      Thank you! I’m careful to point out that I Photoshopped them, so nobody thinks it’s just a photograph — that’s how subtle my changes are.

    I’m wondering if the bedroom features a lovely hammock, since having finally been rescued from the island, Gilligan just didn’t feel comfortable back at home without the rest of his bamboo furniture…

    OK, I looked at the first two pictures and thought, “But bamboo is such elegant, versatile stuff. Could any furniture be *made* any worse than this?”

    Then I reached the third picture. Do you see at the left where the bamboo log on the edge of the table has dried up and split down its length? Dry, split bamboo presents a razor edge that cuts like no tomorrow.

    In the words of the immortal Bill Cosby, “You should never challenge ‘worse.’ Don’t ever say, ‘Things couldn’t get worse.’ Worse is rough …”

    • mudslicker says:

      It still looks like someone stole all the tubes from the bank drive-thru and made them into faux bamboo furniture.

      • Anodean says:

        And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
        Til bamboo brings me ’round again to find
        I’m not the chair they think I am at all
        Oh no no no. I’m a rocket chaaair

        Rocket chair! Burnin’ out my fuse out there alone…

    • Jusitn says:

      Forget the cuts, with my propensity for self-injury, I’d accidentally get the bamboo splinters under my fingernails and have to bring myself in front of a tribunal at the Hague for violating the Geneva Convention on myself.

    Pew! Pew pew pew!!!!

    They’re just multitasking! Why have bamboo cluttering up the house unused when you can temporarily use it as furniture while waiting for that possible Gorn attack?

    A few years ago, I saw this guy on TV who made (rather nice) household furniture out of coffins/caskets. His philosophy was to have your burial box prepurchased to save your family the hassle/expense (and to make sure you had what you wanted) but to be putting it to good use while, errmmmmm, waiting. The people from this listing just went the sci-fi angle on this.

    So many tubes, so many places to hide, umm, organic, ummm, incense. Yeah, organic incense. Not that I’ve ever done that, mind you. I’ve just heard that it *could* be done.
