I used to be a claw machine addict...I don't have a photo of how bad it got, but this is about half. I periodically donated when I ran out of space.





My current hovel only has one stuffed animal. It's boring.

You could pretty much tracking the aging of the median forums goon by these threads.

I've read the forums off and on since the early 2000s under different names and I can tell you the goon-rooms were way grungier then. In this thread these are rooms for horrible nerds who've gotten a little older and now have a little bit of money.

Yes I'm one of them.

This is still the all-time saddest goon hovel:



Actually, it doesn't even qualify as a hovel since it's just a hole in the ground under a house with a tarp over the dirt.

No, this computer is not on a space shuttle being used by NASA, why do you ask?

Right now undead are at the top of my shit list. Undead are complete fuckers. Those geists are fuckers. Necromancers are fuckers. Necrosavants are big time fuckers. Skeletons aren't too bad except when they bleed everyone in the company. Zombos are at least not too bad.

I would if I had a replacement, its like the worst of everything combined into a keyboard. Fingerprint magnet, none of the keys are standard keycaps... but the macro keys are nice I guess.

honestly my only thing about this room is i'm a little paranoid that a sunroom bedroom means people are gonna come up on my deck at night to stare at my electronics. the good news is i will be immediately alerted to any crime men

haha yup this originally was just an empty sunroom with no blinds or even proper paneling so i made it nicer, bought some of those pull down shades from home depot and made it happen. the next step is running cable (coax/ethernet) because i'd like to be able to watch aforementioned sports out here and on the deck in the summer.
