Hobart I-Cool chair helps villains rule empires, shed pounds

Hobart's I-Cool concept chair is not marketed as coming with a sinister white cat, or even a button marked "abruptly swivel 180 degrees to face Bond." Instead, it apparently helps one lose weight.

Just who do they think their market is?

The subtle Casino Wallpaper pattern on the right-hand chair is a stroke of genius. Perfect complement to the ultramodern design.

It probably has a cooling unit built into it that blows cool air on the person.

It takes more calories to stay warm in a cold environment than just being in a warm one, which is probably where their claims of weight loss come from. In practice, people will probably just wear a sweater.
