Once upon a time, long before you were born, to be seated was a form of punishment. Like transportation, sitting someone down was a penance. Because it meant that you were in a cage, and that you couldn't stand up, and that you couldn't walk. Nowadays however, such is the state of our memory - history being a luxury that most people cannot afford - we have no idea that the very foundations of modern society - transport and sedentariness - are steeped in torture methods of old. Who would've thunk it?
