All your opinions are second hand already, might as well get second hand shit everywhere

Obviously you don't go for turntables or 60's coffee tables

Durable wooden furniture is often quite cheap

I bought my turntable from the place I work at. has bluetooth, built in speakers. 35 bucks. Not bad for the price

Your desk sounds depressing as fuck tho

It's actually pretty Gucci. Solid as fuck, plenty of space, and I can add/modify to it as I please

Compared to my old 140 dollar desk that had a set layout, I would never go back

I got a hardwood desk for free, used some nearly free veneer to re do the top in a meranti style and I was set

Calling it 'modifying' instead of 'i can do whatever i want to it since its ugly already' does sound better yes

I don't find it ugly, though. It's literally a flat slab of wood with a little platform for my monitor

>veneer
How utterly disgusting

Also, my desk has an adjustable height, so I made it the perfect height to fit my minifridge under it. Feels good

I used to keep it full of booze, but ever since I went sober, It's full of fucking la croix

good for you for going sober though m8

I'm the same

about to hit the 6 month mark I think

same here, must be 23h by now
tfw gonna make it

It's not that I had a PROBLEM with drinking, per se. I only got drunk maybe 1-2 times a month. It's just expensive, high in calories, and frankly 2 hours of good times aren't worth 24 hours of feeling sick as fuck.

yeah it's not worth it

I look a million times better now, got some photos from before I quit to now

not keen to be a bloated fat faced drunk again

you'd rather be a pale lanky <:thenk:329322130804047872> ?

I hung out with a buddy last night, and the entire time he was drinking Seven and Sevens, and it was kind of eye opening. Like "Is this how annoying *I* am when I'm drunk?"

@JHWH I won't go full Transience, don't worry

and yeah, some of my friends are borderline/full alcoholics, opened my eyes too

my uncle died last month from acute alcohol abuse too

collapsed on the way to get glasses for his whisky

Condolences

felt like the right time to hang it up when I stopped

it's alright mang

he was in and out of hospital for years from alcoholism

was kind of expected

I'm lucky in that no one else in my family is a drinker, either, so I'm not really genetically predisposed to alcoholism.

My dad never drinks, my mom has like, a glass of wine with dinner, and my brother makes moonshine but doesn't drink it himself

Tfw sober for 4 days <:smail:379313786193969152>

thats not how genetics work @Matthew <:thenk:329322130804047872>

I mentioned both my parents, so it's somewhat relevant

Must be new record for me

Also, >Implying my big brother didn't contribuite to my genes

I am a southern boy, after all

Im really proud guys
