I know! But I guess it would be easy to move by yourself....on second thought I wouldn't want to be alone with that thing!

Imagine being....well a little less than sober...and have that thing come at ya.

Love & stuff

hi Bryn,

Hum, what will they think of next? How about a sashaying dishwasher? it comes & gets your dirty plates, of course.

That's kind of scary. Imagine just sitting there eating dinner, and the table starts walking away with it...

Especially if I haven't got to my pork crackling, which I save until last!!

Perhaps they'll come up with a boogieing Ottoman ...?

LOL, Nina! You'd be like "Hey, where you going with my dinner? I was eating that!"

I'm sure the Dutch are busy working away on the boogeying ottoman as we speak (the Dutch are a very industrious people, I've been told)

Hi pegasus,

They must have massive populations and iddy-bitty living space... this'd be great when the table has to be put away after a meal for the lounge to be pulled out, or something...*smile*

... cats and dogs would need to watch their tails....

Lilla...

Love the post. I bet I could run faster than a walking table. I've been walking for 18 years, you know. I hope they do build the ottoman though. I'd love to see that.

Hi Lilla, good thinking, this table would save space...and would keep your pets 'in line'.

hey Anthony! How you doin', buddy?
Sounds like you possibly could out walk the walking table, but I wouldn't turn my back on it after your victory, because that's when they get you!


LOL, Lauren. Could you imagine 10 of those things walking around your house? I guess you could race them!

It's like a giant wooden spider! And I don't like those.

You know that one day that table would come alive somehow and chase your ass down the street! While it is easy to move, I'll pass on that one!

You're right, Kylie, it does look like a wooden spider! At least they didn't paint the table black, now that would send a shiver down my spine.

What if it runs off with all the foood?!

Comment by Hope

If that was in my house and it suddenly did that I'd go insane!

hey Tracy, table runs off with the food? New diet craze! you can't eat it if you can't find it!



Hello Hope,
I know! At least the darn thing isn't motorized or it could just start walking by itself. Creepy.

Such a good idea. Makes moving easier, yes?
