My 14-year-old son attended a lavish party last week, held in a house so deep in the burbs, it was actually in the burbs of a different city. The enormous dwelling had its own home theater, and each dark, cushy, vinyl-upholstered theater seat had its own cup holder. Needless to say, Jay was very impressed.
Cup holders are one of the signature comforts of our day, and I feel somewhat diminished that none of our furniture has one. Suggested here is a quick upgrade on design history.
