Now, our hunt for Bizarre stories continues… and this time is about a chair listed on Facebook Marketplace from a woman in Oklahoma City that has been a complete bomb and went viral immediately.
DeAnna “DeDe” Whitlock Yingling, had posted her favorite armchair for sale in an attempt to make some quick cash for $100.
The post became viral not because of its price, and not because of Ms. Yingling’s Facebook account, it was the distinct discoloration on the chair that makes it look like a person had sat in the chair for years and perhaps even died in it.
Ms. Yingling claimed that the chair was beautiful and had nothing wrong with it but netizens have completely disagreed.
Ms. Yingling’s chair went viral within 24 hours of her listing. However, most people were completely disgusted by the chair, but one person supposedly did offer a staggering $500 for it.
Now, the armchair has become the inspiration for hundreds of memes that continue to circulate on social media.
Ms. Yingling said in a statement:
“The story behind the chair is a bit of an odd one because I never noticed an image of any kind, I purchased it from someone else on Marketplace, and it has been sat in my living room for a long time, and no one has ever said anything about it. I listed it online, and the following morning, my sister sent me a text to tell me that it was blowing up on Facebook.”
“A friend even texted me saying our very own Mayor David Holt of Oklahoma City even commented on the chair on Twitter, saying it deserved a broader audience, I didn’t have a Twitter account, but now I do,” she added.
Many netizens also shared their reactions and opinions about the item for sale:
“I may buy it and create a haunted room in my house. Old baby dolls and the grandpa ghost chair,”
“Someone died in this mofo,”
This has been good entertainment amidst the crisis we are all facing.
“Nothing wrong with it, just an atomic bomb took out the person sitting on it, as you can see the person’s silhouette was printed on the chair,”
“I think this should be Biden’s new chair, it fits him perfectly.”
This has been good entertainment amidst the crisis we are all facing.
