A very functional sofa joke as it's the optimal shape for moving.
- eru 10mo agoNot really, because it's only optimal in 2d.

- eru 10mo agoIf you've ever moved any furniture at all, you'll notice that it's often much easier to get around corners (or through doorways), if you can turn them sideways. That's especially easy to imagine with tables, but sofas also count. There are also sofas that can be easily taken apart. Eg one of our sofas at home, an L-shaped sofa, comes apart into two pieces.
- lostlogin 10mo agoYou don’t have to move house many times to realise that yes, we do.
- zelphirkalt 10mo agoNot a problem, we can just shape it like the space covered by rotating the whole thing and make the sofa kind of "bone shaped", then we should be set for 3 dimensions. The only remaining issue would be, where to put the actual sitting area on the bone, but that problem I leave for homework.
- Enginerrrd 10mo ago3dimensions still allows for more freedom than that though since the couch can stand on end. I would contend that it's still useful since you'd be able to turn the corner without over-complicating it by getting it into some weird tilt position.
