So they say that sitting too much shortens your life and all that. They also say that most of us sit incorrectly. I know I do. I constantly slide my butt forward and slouch. And I was thinking, what I need is a seat belt to keep me from sliding forward. But such a thing doesn’t seem to exist. There must be some problem with them that I am missing. Since Lemmy has lots of desk jockeys, I figured I would ask here.

    Much like a bicycle it is more practical and safe to use a helmet when sitting on a chair than it is to have a seatbelt. Seatbelts are more useful when restraining someone in a safe enclosed space whereas on a bike, motorcycle or office chair it could cause more harm than without if a serious accident occurs.
