Out, Out, Damn Chair

This chair might not be for sale anymore since it was posted on Craigslist on April 4th, but ignore the chair. Instead, take a look at the prose of words supplied to describe the chair. A Deer Park woman says the recliner is the bane of her existence. The woman writes, “It's a deep purple. Who makes a chair this color?! Who BUYS a chair this color?! Who torments their wife by placing a chair this color front and center in the living room? Every time he leaves town I take this chair and move it into some other place in the house where it can't be seen. And every time he gets back he lovingly restores it to its rightful place.” She admits that the chair is comfortable, but she is infuriated by the coolers under the armrests, waiting to be filled with chilled delights/Nicole Hensley, KXLY.
