Inventor of the Futon

I hate futons. They suck as couches and they suck as beds - which is a whole lot of sucking. But thanks to college kids and people who lack taste - futons are somehow way more popular than they deserve to be.

On every futon that I've ever sat on - I'm either sitting up so straight that it looks like I've got a broomstick up my ass, or slouched down so low that my nose is 2-inches away from my belly six-pack abs. And maybe I'm just picky, but when I sleep, I prefer my bed to be flat and not have a large, deep trench running down the middle. They also look stupid because no matter how many cushions you pile on - you still can't hide the fact that it's a dumb-looking futon. (see photo)

And how about the genius inventor of this piece-of-crap furniture that has made its way into millions of homes across America? I bet he got his inspiration from a hot dog bun.
