Sketchy Futon
Fun Fact: The Stanford psychology department has a very sketchy futon in front of its ground-floor bathrooms.
I assume that it gets used for 'experiments'.
The futon is probably part of a secret psychology experiment in the department, where a lowly grad student is assigned to surreptitiously watch it and see how people react to it / use it. But yeah, also "experiments"... :)
They should totally do something like that! It is so awesome that it needs to be true! It fits in right with the infamous prison guard experiments and all that. :)
