Just moved out yesterday to the new place. Its weird having my own place, no roommates, no nothing. Im mostly trying to force myself to enjoy it. However I feel uneasy about all of it for some reason.

HOWEVER, I took some pics. One is of my entertainment furniture and my living room setup and my awesome view out back. For years ive looked at the parking lot from my patio. NO LONGER! Ive also found I can actually play games by having them in another room. Internet kills gameplay time so much.

Many a cold cereals I reckon will be eaten on that very chair.

 

[MrAngryFace]

:lol Damn!

 

[Silent Death]

Can I move in with you? I don't take up a lot of space anf you'll have someone to hang out with.

 

[Slo]

Why eat cold cereal when you've got a forrest full of squirrel in your back yard?!

 

[demi]

Try many a nothing will be eaten on that chair.

Many a Hungry Man?

 

[IJoel]

Nice place MAF.

Congrats!

Worse thing about getting a new place is making it as comfortable as the previous one and filling the newly acquired empty spaces with things that won't look out of place.

 

[COCKLES]

"JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIIIIIIIIIIN UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!"

 

[MrAngryFace]

Yeah, I roomed with someone last apartment so basically had to stretch a room through an entire apartment. Thankfully some friends donated some furniture. Rox!

 

[Error Macro]

Jeez, what a freakin' dump.







Just kidding! Hey, you've got a damn forest surrounding you. That rocks. Except at nighttime, when you know not what lurks in the dark depths.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Actually its just a green belt, but its pretty dense. Also the windows dont face east or west so it barely gets hot in here at all, which is nice.

 

[Mermandala]

plants, bird-feeders, lamps, rugs... these are some things that exist in some places.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Im a minimalist, so dont expect an antique shop.

 

[AlphaSnake]

Expect bugs. A shit storm of them.

 

[Ferny84]

Buy a snake and let it loose in your apartment.

 

[dskillzhtown]

My apt. looks out at the parking lot. I don't mind, I can look out at the cars going in and out while on the balcony. The other place I lived in had a view of the pool. That was sweet, well some of the time.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Ive never had a serious bug problem in WA, and I lived in deeper crap wood area than this.

 

[ArcadeStickMonk]

I couldn't play anything sitting that far back from the TV.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Wha?! Thats exactly the length of a ps2 controller cable. Its the perfect length!

 

[chinch]

buy a house.

 

[Belfast]

Dude, my new apartment is awesome, too. But I don't have any pictures yet.

My view also faces a dense greenbelt though!

 

[MrAngryFace]

you'd be nuts to buy a house right now.

 

[bishoptl]

That forest in your backyard, isn't that where they found the Green River Killer's bodies?

 

[Mermandala]

Im a minimalist, so dont expect an antique shop.

pardon me kindly shopkeeper, but at what price would ye be asking for that fine old casting of dreams machine?

 

[lexy]

Is that a studio?

How much are you paying per month?

pardon me kindly shopkeeper, but at what price would ye be asking for that fine old casting of dreams machine?

What does this mean?

 

[ArcadeStickMonk]

he wants to buy a Dreamcast

Dreamcast is old, lol

 

[MrAngryFace]

Why would I sell my dreamcast?!?!

Its a 1bed 1bath, 700 a month including utilities n whatnot. WA is expensive.

 

[Mermandala]

^^ see ArcadeStickMonk. just a stupid joke.

edit - antique shop.

 

[ArcadeStickMonk]

Wha?! Thats exactly the length of a ps2 controller cable. Its the perfect length!

This is how I roll

 

[MrAngryFace]

So what kind of hat do you wear to hide the tumor?

 

[ArcadeStickMonk]

grew my hair long

 

[MrAngryFace]

Oh....





well that makes sense.

 

[Musashi Wins!]

it's cool that your apartment has a fireplace. get some ladies in front of it and stop buying shitty shit like star ocean 3.

congrats, roommates blow.

 

[haunts]

Living by yourslef w/ no roommates is the best. Just give it time.

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

This is how I roll

Nice - a tanning salon and entertainment zone rolled into one.

 

[6.8]

I moved saturday. No pics. Too messy and lacks a sofa.

 

[Mama Smurf]

Memories of Ice. I approve.

 

[chinch]

$700 a month is really, really cheap. that is welfare housing cost more than that around here. :x

you'd be nuts to buy a house right now.

LOL.

and you're banking on interest rates dropping soon?

or prime real estate to magically appear. LOL.

buy one that needs a bit of work in a good location.

presuming you have some $$$ available for a deposit, don't plan to move out of the area for a few years and can handle the payment it is something to consider sooner than later.

now if you're banking $$$ in anticipation of home ownership in the near future then that is reasonable but in 3 years as a rental you'll be in the same situation.

 

[Kabuki Waq]

I like the chair.


I prefer less furniture as well. More furniture just means more stuff to take care of.

 

[MrAngryFace]

I dont want a home, but if I did I wouldnt buy now. Id wait some years.

As for my apartment setup. yeah getting stuff unpacked n stuff is a bitch. I was up till 2am yesterday building furniture. I also noticed the last guys cable is still on and until MY internet service is setup im browsing and chatting on a wirelss network in the area

Gaming and dling will have to wait, but GAF is nice to have around.


The chair was an awesome donation from great friends. It is the second most comfortable thing on the planet. There's a couch I know of that's 10 times more comfortable.

AND YES MEMORIES OF ICE ROX! Props to Drinky Crow for recommending the books and lending me them as well

 

[UtadaBarkley]

Where is it you live again? n/m WA...

 

[MrAngryFace]

WA State, west coast.

 

[Syckx]

I would kill to be able to pay just $700 a month with utilities. I live in Santa Clarita, CA, BTW.

Anyway, Looks good. I don't have or want a great deal of furniture so I don't mind the open space.

 

[Bog]

I would kill to be able to pay just $700 a month with utilities. I live in Santa Clarita, CA, BTW.

No kidding. I pay over a grand a month here in PA.

 

[fiddlestick]

i could never live in a apartment, too much noise.

 

[ScientificNinja]

MAF, you need a two-seater couch. To sleep on, that is.

 

[distantmantra]

Why would I sell my dreamcast?!?!

Its a 1bed 1bath, 700 a month including utilities n whatnot. WA is expensive.

Are you still in the Mill Creek area?

We pay $985 (all utilities included) to live in the basement of a house on the top of Queen Anne Hill across from Kerry Park. While not a photo from our living room, this is basically the view from our itty bitty windows

 

[MrAngryFace]

Yeah still in Mill Creek

As for the noise comment. What noise? My apartment is dead silent.
