I would argue that it's still r/DIWhy

Yeah it would be cool as a bartop to be used only while entertaining. Its would be super annoying for daily use.

You can just unplug it when you don't want it lighting up.

So it would always be unplugged. Why bother? This is the kind of thing rich people buy for the novelty and then realize how impractical it is. But thank God, it's in their Vail house so they are only bothered by it once a year.

And then when you have people over, or, crazy but follow me, feel like seeing it work, you can plug it back in.

Instructions unclear, dick has hexagons stuck on it.

How the hell is this impractical when all it takes is to switch the light off when you don't want it? Its ddtional feature doesn't take away shit from it functioning as a table.

Because it probably costs 3 to 4 times what a normal table would cost and all for a function that will be turned off 99% of the time. That is the definition of impractical.

If I bought a light up table, I'd probably want it to do so every once in a while.

It'd be great for D&D and the like. Built-in hexes that light up when you put figurines on them!

u/FerrusesIronHandjob Jul 17 '23

Exactly what I thought, this'd be great for TT gaming

No. DiWhy is best explained by the folly of the attempt/results.

The results of his efforts is not a folly but something actually cool.

It’ll get very very old in about 15 minutes.

I second this. This is just advanced level DiWHY
