Needs speakers.

[–] Ironfacebuster@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago

Only problem is that the TV is too low, needs to be on a cardboard box

[–] mechoman444@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

I would get some kind of stand or table for the TV. But otherwise... I don't see an issue.

The TV is too low

Other than that, go nuts lol

EDIT: Oh, damn! We all said the same thing about the TV. Like Jerry Smith in the Jerry Daycare episode. I am become dad, destroyer of factory settings

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

Too small too! Better to get a projector and just fill the entire wall with a gorgeous 4K image!

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 2 points 1 day ago

Needs a mini fridge to keep the beer cold.

Or. The seat is too high. They could just take the cushions out and put them on the floor.

Look at Mr big shot with his box, just use 2 milk crates you stole from the shops.

[–] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ooh look at Mr Moneybags with his two crates. Us poors are over here with our plebian cardboard we pulled from a dumpster while you're living it up with your latticed plastic.

[–] toiletobserver@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oooh, look at Mr Fancy over here, i just sat on the floor to fix the problem

[–] aldhissla@piefed.world 16 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Oooh lookie here at Mr "I have a floor because I don't live in a hole". Must be nice with all that foundation to flaunt.

[–] derAbsender@piefed.social 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

silence from the poor Souls that do not have Internet to contribute to this hilarious Jab and find Joy by watching Grass grow

[–] EvilHankVenture@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Oh la di da, look at this captain of industry with his "grass" and his "joy". Some of us get by on momentary distraction by a passing cloud.

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I'm Mr Meeseeks, look at me!

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 13 points 1 day ago

Yep. Raise the TV to eye level. Then there are no remaining problems with this setup.

Couple of beercases would fix that!

Some cobblestones from the nearby cobblestone street?

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Nope.

According to the tv too high people, this is clearly too high.

It should be about a foot into the floor for proper neck strain.

They see financial responsibility and decry it as poor taste. Even the beer looks cheap, this is what a responsible man looks like.

[–] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No, absolutely not. This is horrible beyond measures. Who made this? Satan?

The TV surely needs some refrigerator-box it could stand on, it's way too low. Barbarians...

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

after a couple of weeks of factor meals you'll have enough boxes

[–] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 2 points 22 hours ago

Hm...fair point.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

There's a console missing.

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I was thinking a box was missing. I'm not looking down at my tv, get a few from the liquor store, they're stronger

Creatures of the now

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 30 points 1 day ago (4 children)

The TV should be a bit higher so it's easier to view while laying back in the seat.

No game console of course, that’s what’s wrong.

[–] D1re_W0lf@piefed.social 11 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I was going to say “no gaming pc” but let’s not get picky.

The beers are getting warm

[–] Rakonat@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] Unpigged@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

There are 7 cans on the floor, not counting the open one. A .5l can of beer warms by 10..15 degrees in about half an hour. If the tempo is set to 15 minutes a can, by the middle of the stack you'll get 3..4 cans of piss warm beer.

So realistically to get all of them chill, you need to do at the pace of 5..7 minutes a can. Can be done of you're into turning your evening into a sporting event.

The TV is ugly low though.

Ew. Using the built-in "smart TV" stuff.

Flip everything towards the fireplace and put the tv on the mantle then BOOM!...redecorated.

Then the tv will be too high

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

sounds like work

[–] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What's with the fancy-pants la-de-dah white cushion? Is the chairs own cushioning not good enough?

[–] InputZero@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

That's a pillow. This is probably also his bed.

[–] EvilHankVenture@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Yeah, it looks like a bed pillow with no pillow case, it gets a pass.

Efficient. I like it.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 5 points 1 day ago

Needs a cooler for the beer.

[–] PixeIOrange@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Theres an xbox missing!

[–] Steve@startrek.website 12 points 1 day ago

Anyone can see that the tv needs a milk carton under it

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

My lesbian mom lived like that for years after her separation

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago
