This is the start....The movie Wall-E is happening....

TOKYO: Hate standing in line at your favourite restaurant? Japanese carmaker Nissan claims to have just the thing for those sore legs.

A company video released Tuesday (Sep 27) re-enacts a busy restaurant with patrons waiting outside.

They're all sitting in a row of chairs but they won't have to stand when the next hungry diner is called to a table.

Instead, the chairs - equipped with autonomous technology that detects the seat ahead - glide along a path toward the front of the line.

The now empty chair at the front moves out of pole position.

It does look pretty cool though.

Could you imagine how disgusting those would get in the States?

Yeah, but you don't have to stay on a predetermined path. You have the freedom to go anywhere else a normal handicapped person can go.

Finally. An invention that allows fatasses to take the exercise out of going out to eat. It's about time.

For someone who is elderly or handicapped, this would be great...for the other 99% of the country, you would have to be lazy as hell to use that.

In two more generations, people won't have the strength to stand up.
