You know, the allocation of stat points in this world is pretty random. Something about common sense and the wealth attributes here seem lopsided...
 
That is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Who the heck wants to watch TV looking straight up other than someone with polio.
 
I have actually tried this, and it is not as comfortable as it sounds. I have a projector and used a mirror to project the picture directly on the white ceiling above my bed (I tried this once when I was home sick and uncomfortable even sitting up for longer periods).

The problem is that when you have the picture directly above, you have to lie on your back to see the picture properly, and cannot change position easily (e.g. to lie on your side or belly instead). That is very tiring for your back after a while.
 
Although, although, although... sorry... just wanted for my comment to match the article... although 😛

And as for the "monster on the ceiling" there, I hope it's firmly attached cause a little earthquake now and then and presto... flat screen teenage son 😛
 
It won't be very comfortable playing Grid on the ceiling, let alone without a steering wheel. Honestly, what was they thinking?

There were no rational thoughts. A television mounted in the ceiling is of limited use. It would be same to assume that the television will end up on the wall where it belongs when the kid starts straining his neck.

What I like is the fact that there is a huge tele in what would otherwise be a plain room. Perhaps some of the money could have went into some more furniture & deco. Also, I'm not sure if its just me but that quilt is hideous.
 
Rediculous. The woman is a moron. Why not just put it in the wall. why the ceiling. Is her kid disabled? that would be the only way this makes sense.
 
I'd much prefer it to be on the wall not the ceiling. You could still watch it in bed, and get mommy to buy you a nice suite for putting around it.
