Look at this guy! Living like a king with 3 piss jugs!
Keeping them right by the bed is certainly a choice.
he parties hard but he is responsible.
Most people just had it under the bed in real life easily accessible.
Look at this guy, doesn’t know how to use the 3 jugs
well, do you see a toilet? In fact, do you see a toilet in ANY house in zelda games? is… is that what all the pots are for…?
And people do use toilets in zelda, older games are canon proof of that!
Instant Karma for anyone dumb enough to try and break them
One of them is obviously a cum jug.
Why is living simply and within your needs viewed negatively?
Meanwhile, having $1000 worth of throw pillows that are purely decorative, is some sort of achievement?
FWIW I live alone in a 2bed/1bath condo that’s 1100 sq ft, and people tell me my place is ‘too small’ and I need a 3+bed/2+bath place that’s like 1500sqft. Baffles me. and by people I mean, mostly women. Most men think my place is plenty spacious and great.
The house I grew up in was 1200 sq ft with 5 people. Blows my mind that the apartment I own is basically the same size as a house, but apparently unless I live in a McMansion sized space, I ‘have issues’.
1100 sq ft alone sounds massive to me, and I’m a woman. I live alone with 2 cats in a 700 sq ft apartment and it feels perfect and even slightly spacious. I have a nice sized living room that houses my computer desk and my bookshelves, a largish kitchen/dining room, a big bedroom with a tiny walk in closet, and a larger than normal bathroom with a washer/dryer in a closet. I love it and I wish I could take it with me when I inevitably move away from the area.
Yeah, my first apartment was 750 square feet and I thought it was great. Got married, had kids, upgraded houses a couple times. I’m old now, and my wife left a little over a year ago. I’m in a condo that’s 1375 with just my cat. I was worried that it was going to feel cramped after being in a big, two story house, but it doesn’t at all. It’s really bigger than I need, but I have a guest room in case any of the kids want to stay over or my wife comes to visit, and I have an office for my desk and computer. I know I could have been fine with smaller, but this feels great, honestly.
I wonder how much of the gender divide just comes from social conditioning. Most women I know have been told from a young age to plan to grow their family and add people to a household, but most of the guys are expected to just exist until it’s time and to then find a house big enough for (???) people. That being said, I think 2-Bed/2-Bath is the sweet spot for most people.
Maybe that’s a cultural thing. I came from a cult where everything was centered around making new cult members, either through recruitment or reproduction. We even were taught to fuck and time our kids’ birth such that they would be the oldest in their grade school class. There’s social bullshit what goes along with being the oldest in class, better opportunities. The reasoning wasn’t for the kids, it was for the cult. Fucking cults. That usually means Fall birthdays, so Winter conception.
most single people, or most couples? i’d agree with the latter.
fwiw most women I meet who say this are anti-kid. but they still want large homes. I don’t get it, but we’re not compatible anyway. I’d rather have a kid and live in a small place… sinking all my money into a large childless home is just weird to me.
2b/2b (or 1.5 bathrooms) hits a sweet spot because it can give you/a spouse a private bedroom and bathroom, a separate bathroom for guests or a child/spouse to use, and a second room that can be a bedroom, guestroom, office or hobby room. It’s also a layout that can work well at 900-1100 sqft, especially if it’s not a ranch layout with a hallway eating usable space.
yeah i could use a second bathroom sometimes, but it’s not that big of a deal. i do have a hallway that i suppose cuts into my space, but it’s basically the playroom for the pets.
I dunno, it seems in my demographic people expect 1500-2000 sq ft for two people, or 2500+ for a family. I’ve also been in other people’s 1/2beds that are quite nice and spacious and listened to them complain about how awful and small they were.
i am considering buying a house, but really for the yard, not so much more housing space, and also to just move to a cheaper and more vibrant place.
Baffles me. and by people I mean, mostly women. Most men think my place is plenty spacious and great.
This is so weird, because I also have anecdotes about lots of women who live in 500sqft studios and love it, and their male partners/friends judge them for not having more space because they can’t stay over or “party” there. My roommate’s ex-boyfriend was like this, and we lived in a 2bed/2.5bath.
It’s as if you’ve surrounded yourself with assholes, and decided it’s a gendered problem.
so your female friends only date assholes? isn’t that the classic nice guy belief?
No, they dumped them and got much nicer and less judgemental people in their lives. Sucks that you won’t experience that type of growth anytime soon if your replies are anything to go by.
Good luck with being a victim or whatever you’re trying.
i’m not trying anything. but you sure are ;)
The definition of financial happiness is the difference between how much you make and how much you spend.
While some poor jerk is spending the next 30 years paying 30% of their income on a mortgage, you’ve got everything you need at a 10th the cost and can afford to weather whatever comes at you.
I’m a jerk paying 40% of my income to a mortgage :)
Just cut em off with “not interesting” middle sentence :)
Rooms I have in my house that I need/want
- master bedroom
- master bath
- bedroom for kid
- guest bedroom
- secondary/guest bathroom.
- room for my office
- room for wife’s office
- some room for laundry (garage would suffice)
- living room
- dining room
- kitchen
- storage/craft/gym/tools
But maybe I’m just later on in my housing journey cause I used to be able to survive in a tiny area but now I have a wife and a kid. I don’t know if I could go to a tiny apartment without something really tragic happening in my life
No bathrooms beyond the one in the master suite? You do you…
He listed a second bathroom
LOL, I shouldn’t reply before coffee - my brain somehow read that line as “secondary/guest bedroom”
It happens, I had to look at it twice too

Dude, it’s furnished, clean, paid for, it’s near the freaking castle!!! Like two screens away, I’ll take it mo’fucka! All wooden furniture, that bed always looked cozy af ngl. Is that a fountain back there!!! Ohhhhhoooo boiiii!!! Get me a real estate agent!!!
Just pick an accent colour that isn’t brown and get a rug.
Is light brown okay?
Um, how about umber?
Burnt umber is fine. Raw umber would vanish into those floorboards.
Yeah, he lives there with is “uncle” and there is only one bed. I don’t want to make any assumptions, but maybe someone should call CPS anyway…
the uncle sleeps on the kitchen table.
Dude got 3 pots. What’s your problem?
3 chamber pots maybe? One for pee, other for poo, third for uhhhh
No phones, no TV, just people living their best life.
What game is this from?
This is your home in Zelda: Link to the Past (on Super Nintendo)
It’s dangerous to go alone. Here, take this. ⚔️
Women look at this apartment and seriously see issues with it?
More minimalists vs … non minimalists? But it’s funnier to say women v men.
Where do you think we got the idea from?
Happy Cake Day I guess, I didn’t know Lemmy had this feature.
Me either and thank you!
Where is the flatscreen?
leaving without taking your lamp is a no-no
Fun fact: if you don’t take the lamp from this chest and go through the escape sequence, the chest in Zelda’s cell which normally has 5 Rupees contains the lamp instead.
Daggerfall had some of the most questionable apartment designs out there - it felt like some cruel joke of wicked gods.
The Feng Shui is strong, with this one.
