I'd rather be a table because nicer things are put on it.

I would much rather be the table. I wouldn't want to be the chair and have people sit on me. A table usually gets nice things put on it and all those yummy foods! It sounds like a better thing to me.

I think I'd prefer to be a table. The table is where family and friends gather around to have meals, talk, and read the paper. Good conversations happen around the table. Good food is available and put on the table, along with (sometimes) good china and silver; life would be just as exciting with the paper plates and plastic forks. A table can be used for all kinds of things, from making craft projects to canning tomatoes, it's versatile and can be used in many, many different ways. A chair wouldn't be so lucky, it's main purpose is to be sat upon, and the only other thing it's often used for is to stand on to get the to the upper cabinets in the kitchen. My life is more like a table than a chair, I might not fit everywhere (like a chair can) but I'm versatile and up to the task of many projects.

I'd make a better table. I hate anyone hanging all over me or sitting on me.

The table. If I was a chair who know's who would be sitting on my face?! Yuck! The table is a safer bet. Mostly I would just get crumbs on me, and that's fine..heehee

I think I would rather be a table. Someone would cover me up with a pretty covering. Tasty food and beverage would be sitting one me. I could glow with candle light! It's more versitile then just a chair.

I would rather be a table because I do not want people sitting on me all the time. At least the table doesn't get alot of heavy stuff set on it.

I'd like to be a chair reserved for women only. Just think of all those lovely ladies sitting in my lap. If I was a table there would constantly be stuff being spilled on me, sharp objects getting dropped on me and hot plates destroying my lovely veneer...I'd look like I had a terminal case of acne after a while

I think I would have to choose the Chair. I would want to offer comfort and rest. a place to get off your feet for awhile. I so often feel like a chair in real life that this is the only response I could give. Not that I let people sit on me in over burden or stand on me in being taking advantage of, just a warm safe comfortable place to rest.

i'd would like to be the chair. i think the chair is much useful compared to the table. when a person is tired, he gets to rest on the chair. when a person eats he sits on the chair (a table technically is not needed, lol).. you get what i mean.. =D although the disadvantage of being a chair is that you get to SMELL b*tts... lol! =D

I am thinking that I would much rather be a table with lovely vittles placed upon my back, than a chair with a derrière, smelly feet and other things like that.
