        IMO, if they don't want people free-swivelling during meetings than they shouldn't put swivel chairs in 'bored' rooms.

        Dr. Tyson, you can always say that you're just demonstrating rotational inertia.

        I think @SethMacFarlane wins at adult immaturity. He's making a Star Trek spoof show just because that's his favorite from childhood. 😆🖖🏽
