OT: What Should Screw Do?

That thing is called a treadmill.
I've got a treadmill story.

So like 20 years ago. Way before I met my beloved. I lived with a woman from NZ, let's call her the Kiwi. The Kiwi wanted a treadmill for Christmas so she could run in the winter - Kiwis are very active folks. I knew it would end up being unused but being a team player I helped her research and a couple of weeks before Christmas we checked out the models at Sears which were highly rated at the time. So we're looking at a couple of them comparing features and prices - there were two other couples doing the same thing at the time and a couple of other folks as well - treadmills were popular that day my friends... So a sales guy walks up and the Kiwi starts asking questions about various models. The other folks hover closely as they are interested in the information too. Once she's done and has made a decision they both ask me if I have any questions. As I reach for my wallet I say "actually yes" I walk over to the target treadmill lay my coat over the bars this way and that like I'm measuring something, after a while of doing that the Kiwi asks me what the hell I'm doing.

I say "I'm trying to determine how much of your closes can be stored on this model since I know you're only going to use it for two weeks as a treadmill" The guys hovering close by start cracking up until their wives slap them. The salesguy looks really sad and the Kiwi, well I had to duck. LOL.

I bought her the treadmill anyway.

She used it for about two weeks.

Good to see that you traded up.

Quite the entertaining thread about Mr Screw. But completely flawed...any free time Screw has is immediately filled with a nap.
