have you heard of the word utilitarian?
How much are you getting paid to post this over and over?
I would have put some tables and a L sofa. I hate recliners they look and feel trashy to me and I'm also not a dweeb who only cares about video games. That's the apartment of someone who grew up very sheltered.
I don’t see what’s wrong with the apartment. He has the bare necessities of what he needs for entertainment and doesn’t indulge in hyperconsumerist spending habits.
>men
>minimalist
horseshit. we horde tools, building supplies, guns, boats and sporting equipment.
If your living room doesn't look like Pottery Barn fucked Pier One Imports, you're unpatriotic scum who should have their money taken away. Money is meant to be spent on stuff. Lots of stuff.
Its boys first apartment age 23
lmfao im 25 and this is my life. my bed and tv stand are my only furniture
fucking kek.
Yeah it's generally true because 80% of men are beta males so their apartments look like that but for the other 20% where all the intelligence and creativity is it's not
I literally don't see any issue.
When the fuck did materialism become a virtue to the left?
Of cource thots that live surrounded by material wealth given to them by orbiters would see an issue with this.
What's wrong with that? Got everything you need there and it's much easier to keep it clean.
yeah let's shove our homes full of random useless shit so we have to walk around a maze to get to anything
if you don't know how to live out of your car, you should gas yourself
Because we're thinking about the future when we'll probably have to move again. I'm not going to waste time packing a bunch of scented candles, decorative plates and throw pillows
Add a TV tray table next to the recliner and a box fan and this is me.
>decorating your apartment because you're creative
no, it's because you're a fa-- canadian
minimalism =/= being practical
That man did nothing wrong.
When people are seemingly inconsistent try and look at where they actually are consistent. That is how you know their revealed preferences. The left is anti-white man, not anti-materialism.
for split second I thought this was my apartment... damn.
>only true alpha males decorate their apartment with pretty colors and gimmicky shit
you leafs are so far gone
If you have to ask you're either a woman or a faggot.
>No table for tendies and drink by the couch.
> XBone controller.
Not much else is wrong.
no it's the apartment of someone who doesn't give a fuck
this.
i mean, the cables are a little messy, but it's not that bad
>He has a candle
Excessive.
Probably just those decorative light ones. Though a room lit by candles has a very nice atmosphere to it.
Women fill their living space with bullshit because they hate the planet. Women control 90% of consumer spending and 90% responsible for the pacific garbage patch.
Nothings wrong with this if the guy works a lot and doesnt have a lot to maintain in spare time he does have.
Seems like he's got more of a outside social life and works a lot since he doesnt have seating for more than himself.
Simply google "guys apartments" or related in google images and you cant find a single cheap looking room pictured anywhere.
>only intellectuals such as myself fill their apartments to the brim with useless shit for the sake of it
Fucking leafs, man.
i agree the tv is too small, bro needs to size it up a notch. Otherwise a perfect setup.
Is it live or is it Memerex?
gotta agree with this, it's usually women who want to throw things out of the house to get rid of them
It’s not that it’s not packed full of stuff, it’s that the person clearly never has friends over, or doesn’t care about their house guests. There’s only seating for himself. It’s really not that “minimalist” or “utilitarian” if you’re spending money one a one bedroom when a studio/efficiency would save you money and better serve your needs.
You friendless degenerates
Women are natural nesters and will fill any space with shit before they can feel at home
only ones with any taste. who wants to live in a bare shithole?
art is essential to a healthy home
shitposting on a soul destroying board while surrounded by emptiness isn't good
>That's right goy. All you need is your precious TV. It provides all the (((entertainment))) that you'll ever need.
You should strive to be something better, not to impress some thot, but to achieve personal independence and adulthood, but that doesn't mean you can't be happy with what you have in the meantime.
I personally have an eye for design, but as long as it's useful, women likes to fuck your place up with 12 useless uncomfortable shiny pillows, thot quotes on the wall like laugh live and love, also childish pseudoscience pop culture books on shelves that she thinks counts as actual literature, women just thinks the most tacky and expensive the better, day of the thot when?
Bin bin brah
What's the point of having so much shit in your apartment? If your apartment gets robbed, then it's less items being stolen. If you're moving in or moving out, then moving your stuff would not be a hassle. Fuck women and their materialistic view on the world.
you acquire shit worth hanging up in your home over the course of a career
it's normal for a young person to have an empty home
You mean useful shit?
Women buy shit used solely to "decorate" empty space simply because they can't stand looking poor... even if they're not.
>precious TV. It provides all the (((entertainment))) that you'll ever need.
depends if you have a PC hooked up to the TV i see no issue as you have complete control with what is presented before you. However if you have cable tv... GAS YOURSELF
So?
They need a woman
A woman makes a box a home
>Is men being a minimalist a meme or is it actually true?
Yes, my house was Spartan and clean, then I got married, now my house looks like a family of filthy horders live there.
My house is full of crap. I brought home a 2mt piece of wood sea water carved in a cool way yesterday. Figuring out some use for it. In my experience women are the ones who are into retarded minimalistic furniture you find on gay design magazines on the hairstylist's table.
A woman makes you spend 3x what's necessary on tacky decoration because she wants to Instagram her terrible taste to her thot friends, a home is what you make it to be
>women are so vacuous, they have to surround themselves with superfluous materialism
Looks good to me. He probably has a couple fold up chairs in the closet for company. I was going to say he'd need an end table, but I see not one, but TWO cupholders in that sweet chair. I'm thinking a Roomba keeps that carpet pristine. No bullshit, I love it.
When did Jow Forums get so full of normie faggots?
if you toss in two tall book shelves filled with anime, vidya and books that is pretty much how I live. oh forgot to mention I have my computer desk in my dining area and the computer chair is the only other chair aside from my recliner.
Bedroom is just my bed and a small cardboard box to hold my alarm clock and phone. Because I am not some stupid roastie who would blow $100 on some table she has to replace in 5 years because its out of style. Dumb whores at my work bitch about not having enough money. Then the next day they talk about how they blew over $150 on fucking throw pillows. Women cannot handle money.
Nihow Roastie
>(Canadianese for shalom roastie)
Poor Maxell never gets proper credit. youtube.com
>you acquire shit worth hanging up in your home over the course of a career
I have some degrees I guess...
Men are less inclined to buy useless knick knacks, figurines, vases, candle holders etc etc
Men in general see shopping as a chore. They only go when they need something and they usually just get things they will use
slid
Compared to women generally yes
Nah, I'd ditch the recliner for a couch.
But I like napping with the tv on.
to each his own.
so much this
i've moved about 7 times in the last nine years and it occurred to me i'm just constantly
packing/unpacking mountains of stuff, 95% of which i never use
started selling off old vidya, DVDs, etc. and even giving shit away to thrift stores
most of this stuff i wouldn't even notice if it went missing
the process of getting rid of junk is cathartic and liberating. i'm not planning on living life like an ascetic monk by any means but can confirm that surrounding yourself with shit you don't need isn't the way forward in life
It's not that shopping is a chore, the reason women loves shopping is because they're not the ones paying for it, spending men hard earned money is their pleasure
When I lived in an apartment, all I had was a table and chair for eating, a table and chair for the computer, and a bed.
If you start with an apartment like that and then you get a girlfriend, how do things change?
Just like, put up a whiteboard
The toxicity, it's truly offensive, yes, I'm sure it is femanon.
this is what women want
Your girlfriend is not your wife, you have no obligation of having a marriage ready home when you're dating
2016.
She'll spread ugly crap all over the place with no rhyme or reason and call it "decorating" or "livening up the place".
This
My 'decoration' are knives, tools and other stuff I hoard for the inevitable collapse of society
more useless shit.
Having said that, some items like a globe or some maps on the wall would do well. Maybe a book shelf.
the only friends I have are online. the rest are just friendly work acquaintances. They don't need to come over. Hell I dont want anyone over. I will spend my free time the way I want. Not entertaining some parasitic ass hat who is so weak they constantly need validation from their idiot friends.
>X-Men poster
>Dumbledore quote on the wall
That's as far as I made it.
Someone fucking kill this guy and deliver him from his earthly misery.
No, it is wasteful, if he has a computer than he doesn't need a tv. If he has a phone, he doesn't need a computer (as per minimalist survival needs.)
>if he has a phone he doesn't need a computer
Not everyone is a neet, computers are necessary for doing actual work
Her clothes and packs of pads everywhere on the floor, colorful cardboard boxes for other clothes, bathroom an ungodly mess, no inch of surface spared by her tools of cosmetic trickery, kitchen full of 20€> cups purchased online because "they have mustaches painted on it, I had to buy it hehe". So glad university's over and I own my place.
Men are genetically incapabable of creating a homely comfy home for a family. It's due to natural selection.
I went and looked in my backyard and garage, this.
Honestly it has too much stuff in it.

>starts looking around apartment...
>splitting maul by front door
>ice axe and crampons in a corner
>Kukri bowie knife and 9mm under coffee table
>Buckets of empty shells on my kitchen table
>12ga next to that
I'm going to die alone aren't I?
this is an attack on poor people. shameful!
It's real for me.
>choose to live in apartment that is 2 rooms (not 2 bedroom, literally 2 rooms) and a bathroom
>desk
>desk chair
>dresser
>table in other room
>bed
That's it except for appliances and I'm totally content. I live alone and have no desire to have people at my place. Theres no reason for anything else. Even when my ex lived with me here for a few years the only real difference was a second chair.
you spelled tampon wrong faggot lel
Dude why are you stalking me?
>throw pillows
god i hate those things
might as well put rocks on your bed
>Having said that, some items like a globe or some maps on the wall would do well.
are you saying i should start a company making custom maps for nerds to hang on the wall
Every time I see something awful on Jow Forums, it's always posted by a leaf. It's like they're radicalized because they live in a cuck country, or they're cucks because they live in a cuck country.
Come fight me fuck face.
I'll turn your asshole inside out and stuff it full of tampons.
God yes. I go to swap meets just to see if anyone has any tools I don't recognize, then buy them. Because I know that someday, I'm going to seed this shit and wish I'd bought it when I had the chance.
This
If he has a phone all he really needs is a landline and an encyclopedia. Maybe a fax machine if he wants to live in luxury
lol
Moving is simple at that point. One good buddy oughta get it done in a day
