Indoor Slide

It occurred to me recently that sometimes the best things in life really are the most simplistic. A perfect example of this is the concept of slides. Why would anyone ever want to walk down stairs when they could zoom down a smooth, exciting slide? Why conform to the same routine of one foot in front of the other when you can slide on your butt, your tummy, go backwards, sideways, two people at a time, all the while giggling and having an amazing experience for the several seconds that the slippery ride lasted? This has led me to one simple conclusion; if I build a house one day, I will have a slide in it.

I think the best way to make this idea become a realistic reality is to have the slide be part of the staircase. I can't imagine it'd be a particularly difficult thing to include in the plan of the house, nor would it require a large amount of modeling to accommodate it. I wouldn't need an elaborate slide to be happy, I'd just need something there to provide an exciting alternative to the staircase.

The possibilities are not just limited to enjoyable personal transportation from point A to point B. I would never have to carry dirty clothes down stairs ever again. I could shove the cat down there if it was annoying me. I could make my slinky race things.

Everyone loves slides. They should become a mainstream alternative to stairs.
