Chairs. You can sit on the ground or on a mat by a low table, as many people have done for centuries.

Yeah, agree. Tables can be used standing or while sitting in the floor. Chairs are nice, but without tables a lot of stuff would happen at floor level anyway.

Definitely easier to get by without chairs.

Maybe with your back, you young whipper-snapper. Every time I sit on the floor, I'm concerned it'll be a one way trip
