Look at this guy! Living like a king with 3 piss jugs!

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 62 points 4 days ago (5 children)

Keeping them right by the bed is certainly a choice.

Most innocuous place if you had to hide your stash of freshly harvested human hearts

Look at this guy, doesn't know how to use the 3 jugs

[–] reksas@sopuli.xyz 12 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

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!

[–] Bongles@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 days ago

Hmmm.. the hotel in Majora's Mask had a toilet and if I remember correctly.. no pots? If there were any maybe there were a couple in the kitchen.

We're on to something.

[–] RustyLog@fedinsfw.app 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Piss jug, Cum jug, and Rum jug.

[–] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

I hate when I mix up the rum jug with the cum jug. Mixing it up with the piss jug is okay though.

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'.

[–] lonefighter@sh.itjust.works 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

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.

[–] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 days ago

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.

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 19 points 4 days ago (26 children)

The people who give you shit for having more room than you actually need are self-selecting themselves out of your life.

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.

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.

Dude got 3 pots. What's your problem?

[–] manuremy@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 days ago

3 chamber pots maybe? One for pee, other for poo, third for uhhhh

[–] TaterTot@piefed.social 22 points 4 days ago

I see an issue...

There's three too many pots in there. Someone really oughta throw them against the wall.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Link didn't even own the house. It was his uncle's.

[–] capt_wolf@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Even more concerning, there's only one bed...

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

No wonder Link gives zero fucks when his uncle dies.

[–] Codpiece@feddit.uk 25 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Where do you crap? Outside like a wild animal?

[–] yaroto98@lemmy.world 49 points 4 days ago

The pots obviously. They're called chamberpots for a reason. The kid keeps breaking them instead of cleaning them out however. All because he found a couple rupees once that had fallen in while I was doing the deed. Well, I knew they were in there, just wan't worth trying to retrieve them, ya know? I tried telling him he can get the rupees if he cleans them out too. But he didn't listen to that either. I replace the chamberpots as soon as he leaves, but he just comes right back and breaks them again.

And he wonders why we are poor and his mom is gone.

in the outhouse.

indoor plumbing didn't become widely available until after WW1, and it wasn't until after WW2 that it was universal.

Just pick an accent colour that isn't brown and get a rug.

Where is the flatscreen?

[–] squirrel@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 4 days ago (2 children)

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...

[–] Carmakazi@piefed.social 15 points 4 days ago

Families sharing one bed was actually pretty normal back in ye olde times. You'd even share beds with strangers at inns and such if you were traveling.

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

the uncle sleeps on the kitchen table.

[–] minorkeys@sh.itjust.works 12 points 4 days ago (2 children)

The Feng Shui is strong, with this one.

Daggerfall had some of the most questionable apartment designs out there - it felt like some cruel joke of wicked gods.
