| ^ that's why I'm so smart and my iq is sky rocketing. Also by refusing education and books I managed to keep a full head of hair |

Who said anything about books? More assumptions, except they aren't mine.
I treasure them, as you should know from my posts, which you obviously read and reflect on in great detail. |

| 90% of the items in that photo are books. Is it soul-destroying for Jenny to get some furniture to store them efficiently? |

| Hey don't worry Orangesto, when I get the closet organizer all hooked up I'll make sure to post pics of that too, and you can tell us all about how clothes don't make the man, man. |

Bald heads forgetful of their sins,
Old, learned, respectable bald heads
Edit and annotate the lines
That young men, tossing on their beds,
Rhymed out in love’s despair
To flatter beauty’s ignorant ear.
They’ll cough in the ink to the world’s end;
Wear out the carpet with their shoes
Earning respect; have no strange friend;
If they have sinned nobody knows.
Lord, what would they say
Should their Catullus walk that way?

Actually, I will side with Jenny and agree that Ikea has some amazing storage solutions. I was lucky to get their Galant desk setup for my home office back in 2009 before they discontinued the line... it is modular and I would've spent a ton more to get the setup I have (and sized perfectly too!)
This weekend I put my monitors on LCD stands and it frees up so much desk space. These $40 CAD mounts are remarkably well built and I'm amazed at the quality. Recommended! (http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00YJEQ83G])
In terms of spending $ on experiences vs things -- it is all about a balance. I'd rather take a bunch of trips a year than pull my investments to drive around in a fancy new car. I still drive my first car and it is in pristine condition ...mind you, that happens after you've practically replaced every major body panel and the engine. :stongue: |

| For our specific need for that room, I don't know where else we could have found a storage solution that would fit the odd dimensions of the room without getting rid of the existing TV Stand, and also have the same option to modify with drawers and doors. Ikea is the for stuff like that for sure. |

I thought of every single thing you post on this forum in your glistening veneer of smug intellectual self-satisfaction when I was 19 years old. The Tyler Durden anti-materialist spiel, those cringe-worthy rants about Big Bad America, all of it. You're a walking, talking cliché, spouting the same facile as every other angry young man. Your only exceptional aspect is that you've somehow managed to complete your pattern baldness before realising how ing stupid it sounds to label books as "meaningless items". |
In summary he's a bald headed Barton Fink |
