I grew up with a slide in my house. I mention it because I sometimes forget except with !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! I kinda almost forgot that I did...I don’t even have good pictures of it.
Anyway. Now you know that Ma Firstpunch had a sense of humor and a distinct amount of leverage over Pa Fistpunch in getting him to build her a house with a slide in it.
It was mostly used as an up device, not a down one.
Thats me in the brown carrying much less age and weight.
Why do I say this? Cause I can’t go into the office and there is only so much work I can do remotely today so you are getting the weird stuff.

Most houses with a good staircase already have a slide: it’s called a banister. Also, sliding down stairs one step at a time works pretty well when you’re five or so. With or without a butt-pillow. I can appreciate that io9 thinks it’s weird, but really, the slide is just going an extra step, not introducing something that wasn’t there.

Thats true. before this house we would just use sleeping bags and slide down the stairs. It hurt more but provided the same thrills. Not much cheaper though at the rate we were wrecking up sleeping bags.

That is amazing. I want to build a house with a slide in it now.
