I like it except would definitely have to put those little round felt pads for chair feet under it to protect the floor.

[–] suodrazah@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

Ah yes, concrete dust everywhere in my bedroom... delicious.

Everything seemed fine until I saw the Zyn stand.

[–] Gloomy@mander.xyz 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

What is that? I mean, is see the two blue things on the wall, but I never heared the term. Is it something American?

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Nicotine poaches, tobacco less.

[–] WraithGear@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Uhg, that means… that cup is his spit container, the fresh water is in the bottle.

[–] whalebiologist@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Nicotine pouches you swallow flavored saliva, no spitting. So its a cup for water and the jug would be for piss.

Oh well that’s nice. I guess

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 17 points 8 hours ago

I scraped my knuckles just looking at that

My grandmother had a stack of these in her basement and had them all crisscrossed. It is where she stashed her money. She claimed it was fireproof, she didn't have to memorize a combination and nobody would take the time to pull them all apart if they didn't know what was in them.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

gammy would be very disappointed in you for sharing the secret.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Aaand here comes the brick-chancla

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

that is one pissed off abuela.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

That makes a lot of sense to me...

[–] letsgo2themall@lemmy.world 24 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

I think this is less "male" and more "poverty".

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 12 points 9 hours ago

You can probably find a used nightstand for free easier than finding/buying those blocks to haul to your apartment.

[–] fluffy@feddit.org 5 points 8 hours ago

An iPhone and an MagSafe charger is not poverty …

[–] hayali99@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

looks fine too me (i use cardboard box pieces as shelves)

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

remember the days when you could find giant wooden wire spools to use as furniture? Those were better days. They even had holes predrilled in the middle if you wanted to use it outside as a patio table. They were much better tables than the crap thats on sale today.

First thought in a male brain seeing this: "wow, practical".

Then i saw the text.

[–] AoxoMoxoA@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

My first thought was : that is a stout table, not going anywhere, modular , hmm 🤔

[–] Bgugi@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 2 points 8 hours ago

Pfft, amateur. Milk crates are the way to go.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 14 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (2 children)

Yeah, seriously, make that in wood and it would be a hit.

The most popular shelves are just a bunch of cubes, one side open, slapped together.

[–] Nuxleio@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (1 children)

There is no fucking way I'm keeping a bedside table like that. Specifically a bedside table.

How the hell am I gonna show people my room politely with vibrators, lube, condoms, rope, spanking paddles, rope & a hitachi wand hanging out fuck all that lol

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Showing...people your...room? Why would you do that?

[–] Nuxleio@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 hours ago

I don't know, it seems pretty normal to sometimes have a platonic friend or family member in my room?

I don't wanna be like "no stay out" sometimes I want advice on what to wear or a second pair of eyes to look for something.

Also, some people live in studio apartments... or have kids...

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 1 points 11 hours ago

Don't even need to remake much. Just put a slab of wood in the middle and on top.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 17 points 19 hours ago

thats a good looking house plant.

[–] sexy_peach@feddit.org 17 points 19 hours ago

Amazing brutalist aesthetic

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 12 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

If it's stupid and it works, it's not stupid.

[–] AEsheron@lemmy.world 1 points 39 minutes ago

Maxim 43 would like a word.

[–] Shou@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Looks heavy. Could have probably gotten a much lighter side table for free from a sorting facility, or give aways over 2nd stuff websites.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Of course you can do better, but still better than nothing.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 15 points 20 hours ago

This guys a damn genius

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 18 points 20 hours ago (5 children)

It's quite clever until you stub your toe on it at 4am.

[–] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

You just described furniture. And doors. And pets. And cars. And bridges. And...

[–] Presently42@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Do you often stub your toe on bridges at four in the morning?

[–] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 hours ago

I'm telling ya, it's a fucking minefield out there. At 4am? Doubly so.
