this reminds me of those “male living space” memes where it’s just comically uncozy
(I have been an IT professional for 30 years. Jank is my default.)
I do ergo for a lot of IT people. Please just be careful! Carpal tunnel and other RSIs are a bitch to deal with.
Jesus, that mug sitting exactly at the corner of the “desk” on a notepad hanging over both edges is giving me massive anxiety
lol that’s a 4chan level shitty battle station
Dude needed 4 coffee cups for stability
If anyone is looking for a deal on a desk, I’ve gotten (the ones I haven’t built myself) some decent desks at ReStore. Plus it benefits habitat for humanity last I checked.
Freecycle might also be active in your area and if it is, and you have time, hey free desk eventually I’m sure.
My current desk I built myself (just slapped a hardwood countertop in top of some filling cabinets, attached some legs too), but the one before that I got for $25USD. I loved that desk even though it weighed 400ish pounds (180ish kg).
I didn’t get a desk on restore but off Kijiji, and it’s the best desk I could have ever hoped for. Such high quality and even decent looking and I absolutely love it and will probably keep it for decades. I used to be a cabinet/furniture maker and it’s a desk I would have wanted to make for myself, and was able to get it for like $120 delivered. I almost suspect the desk was somehow stolen because if I made it wouldn’t have sold it for less than $1000.
I also highly recommended buying from a place like restore, or even second hand.
Practically anything produced nowadays is absolutely crap quality and overpriced, designed to fail within 5 years. Anything custom made is also unaffordable unless you make bank or grab it second hand.
Well that explains Grandpa’s bed…
If you want real reason it was because he made that just before releasing game. Now it’s a signature.
