Think about it.50+% of the wolrds objects are chairs or tables!
I have seen quite a few rocks, trees, plants, etc, too. My property is not populated by furniture.lisab said:Hmmm...might want to check your math.
Danger said:For sheer numbers, I expect that it would be either plants or insects.
With man-made objects, I'm pretty sure that there are more shoes and pants than chairs and tables.
FrancisZ said:Okay, I'll bite: why do you say that?
FrancisZ said:What would be more interesting might be to ask what you've probably thrown out the most in your life. Or what you've lost the most.
For me, that would have to be either pens or pencils.

Perhaps the OP wanted to say that 50% of man-made objects are chairs and tables, though out of the many thousands of objects that might be found in a Western-society home, I would expect the percentage to be in the low single numbers.

As a frequent hunter, snowshoe enthusiast, and former X-country skier, I can attest to Danger's assertion. Dropping trou in the woods in the winter can be problematic, even if you find a nice downed tree in a spot that gets enough sun to melt off the frozen stuff.Danger said:It can also be used as a toilet; that doesn't make it comfortable.

C'mon! With a name like Danger, you can't be scared of a little deer-tick, can you?Danger said:That's the one main reason that I won't go camping. I have a firm policy of never going any place where the bugs outnumber the bathrooms.

I live in Maine, and though I have spent considerable time in Canada, the fantastic environment (brooks, streams, rivers) here seems to provide us with bumper-crops of those nasty rascals every year. Those guys need flowing water to breed, and until you get anywhere near the coast, we've got that in spades.Danger said:
I don't even know whether or not we have deer ticks up here. We do have wood ticks.
Think though, of the discomfort of having a couple of thousand black-flies trying to crawl up your butt.
This statistic means that half of all the objects in the world are chairs and tables. This includes all types of chairs and tables, from household furniture to office furniture to outdoor furniture.
This statistic was likely determined by conducting a survey or study of the types of objects found in homes, offices, and public spaces around the world. Researchers would have counted the number of chairs and tables present and compared it to the total number of objects in the same area.
Chairs and tables are essential items in our daily lives. They are used for sitting, eating, working, and many other activities. As such, they are found in almost every home, office, and public space around the world.
It is likely that this statistic includes all types of chairs and tables, including different styles, sizes, and materials. However, it is possible that some types of chairs and tables were not included in the study, so the number may not be exact.
This statistic highlights the widespread use and importance of chairs and tables in our society. It also indicates the potential impact on the environment, as the production and disposal of these objects can contribute to waste and pollution. It may also have implications for design and ergonomics, as chairs and tables make up a significant portion of our built environment.
