In light of recent events, some dangers are lurking. You thought your trusty desk chair was taking care of your back, but now it may be backbiting.
It seems going full steam is the way to get rid of these bugs (not writing to the hotline in anger).
Some have even tried to force their laptop in their chair’s seams while updating their TM hoping that the heat from the CPU will cook these to a crisp.
We’ve even seen some “Baygon” their knees…
I can’t say nothing ... See more In light of recent events, some dangers are lurking. You thought your trusty desk chair was taking care of your back, but now it may be backbiting.

A standing desk has fewer bedbugs and far less backbiting.

It reminded me one of the many souvenirs that we can buy in Khan El-Khalili market/souq: the beetles, the traditional amulet of the ancient Egyptians.
