The OP is *beyond* "PG" and needs removed.

I see you're under a bit of pressure to remove this post... never mind - having a sense of humour is quay.

It is a bit more risqué than his usual offerings, but kid sisters these days are a lot more worldly than they used to be. 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Indeed - but my post was just a roundabout way of working up to the pun at the end... which no doubt passed everyone by  (or, more likely, wasn't worth commenting on!)

I don't know what you mean!

I was having wrist pain and my employee safety committee ordered me a new chair. Seems remote to me, but what the heck! Herman Miller Aero.

Nice , but she could have smiled a bit.
Starting to think people post kid pics in their profiles because that was the last time they were cute - Jeremy Falcon.

$1000 they could have got you a new iPhone with that kind of money.

Wouldn't help. It was the non-mousing wrist, but thanks for the tip!

It would have been a way to go if I could tell the future. The new graphics card fixed the card failure, but then I was getting BSODs. Several attempts at diagnostics over a few months lead to an SSD for the op system. Then the hard-drive failed while they were testing it. They installed a non-HP operating system that caused problems. Finally found the HP emergency backup disc and got a stable machine. After reinstalling all my software 5 times, I have been a bit slow to reinstall even though it is stable.

I believe more or less (which ever is appropriate) masturbation with said hand will fix that wrist right up.

Nah, didn't help.

That's what caused it in the first place.

Hence I said more or less, depending on what had caused the issue in the first place.

It can be a symptom from having too low a chair, putting your wrist at the wrong angle and helping promote RSI. A new chair (and possibly a wrist rest) may actually help.

Exactly what the pretty lady from the committee said!

That is good advice about angle. I've dealt with wrist pain for the past 15 years and any additional advice I'd have, which helps me, is use a gel filled mouse pad.

At some places I've worked, with "modular furniture", I was able to lower the work surface a couple of inches, and that helped.
Removing the arms from my chair has helped as well.

To avoid that pain I use the chair in that manner that my ellbows are horizitally when typing. And I make reagular breaks to move and stand and make regular exercises as training in sports.
But the most important is not to sit too in front of the computer. And gaming counts also. 
Press F1 for help or google it.

That one is the best from HM...
Used by Sheldon Cooper... 
I would have bought this one, but it was too expensive for me... Probably the next one I'll get will be that one though...
By now I hope the Sayl from HM will be enough for me and of course is a lot better of where I was sitting before...

Is it comfortable? Do you like it beyond the "lot better"?
