My local hospital has chairs exactly like this in every cubicle, and pretty much every home for OAPs (at least that I've visited, and that's been a few) has dozens of them in the common rooms. I used to sit in one when I was in hospital last year and it made me feel like my grandmother!

They're actually quite comfy...

Nice! I'm loving that we get to see some English photos, somehow feels different knowing it's actually somewhere near me rather than the other side of the world!

The question now though: How long before someone starts speculating how it was used as an instrument of torture? lol!

That's right about the UK chopsuey, there's a hospital in the city nearest me (in England), which was abandoned for as long as I can remember, and was genuinely creepy, and they converted it into a block of luxury flats. They look really nice I'm sure, but I don't think I'd want to live in them!

The value of something doesn't change the fact that it's theft. If you take something from here that didn't belong to you, then it's stealing.

What makes you think they were serial killers? Just because someone's in an institution they must be a serial killer???

Why is it sad? It's a chair! I had blood drawn yesterday, and the chair I sat in wasn't sad!

Sorry, I know this is a "dead thread" - I'm always a bit behind everyone else...

Lol, kisses :-p

Ok, I must just be a really insensitive person, because I don't get any senses of anyone's tragedies or mistreatment from a photograph of an empty room - I can see a very beautiful photograph of a room which probably looks very different from when it was inhabited. It's going to look cruddy because it's abandoned - you can't really see what it was like when people were actually there unless you were there at the time.

I think there are a lot of people who like the dramatic, and create these little torture/mistreatment scenarios in their heads, which they have no evidence of from a photo of a room, and that's a disturbing thing in itself!

Can anyone else actually feel their brain melting after yet another one of "Littlepheret's thoughts on life"?

This is probably just me, but I think the Humpty Dumpty drawing is really cute! It doesn't look sinister, it looks happy!
