I'm an ontological skeptic but only for chairs. I think chairs, as objects, aren't real but other objects (couches, ottomans, chaises, etc) are real.

in reply to @bruno's post:
hmm it's like the reverse of ultrafinitism in math
a category only exists if philosophers have NOT thought about it too much
huge brain extension of this theory: this is why magic doesn't exist. it used to and wizards learned way too much about it at a way too deep a level and spent all their time thinking about it and now it doesn't any more
the same thing could happen to the sciences
