thats exactly what I think of when I see segways and contraptions like this. We're slowly rendering our bodies useless with technology, and soon we'll all be floating around on hovering lay-z-boys with built-in toilets.

Time to watch Idiocracy again

Actually, I see some funny potential here. I pictured this in my head when I first saw the guy going sideways. I predict someone will make a Youtube video of some co-workers having drift races through the office building.
