[Text] (With Pictures!)

[aroundthecoroner]

So it's day 2 of Ikea madness,
and I figured we should set up some kind of cragslist situation,
so that people can get rid of things they really don't want.
Or if you for some reason feel like filling your house with this stuff
follow your dreams?

Anyway I found this yesterday:

[Attached is a photo of a very odd table, the front half of it, anyway. It's sticking out of an apartment wall at an odd angle, legs mostly horizontal. There's a second photo of the back half, which appears to be in another room.

A jacket is hanging off of one of the hooves. Looks like someone has found a use for it, at least.]

If anyone knows how to get this out of the wall
without like, destroying said wall
they're welcome to it.
But to be honest I'm kind of getting used to it.
Might call it "Dave".
This I'm not too keen on:

[Another image, this one of a kind of unsettling chair.]

Frankly you can just have it.
Please.

[Everyone is welcome to post their new furniture they don't want, or offers to acquire more. Michael is not going to moderate, but it's a platform at least!]

We got a new couch.
Would be kinda cute if it didn't moo loudly every time you sat on it.
Or smell like beef.

[aroundthecoroner]

[Michael has absolutely nothing to say to that, but he's kind of glad Rose can't see him laughing over text. Suddenly deer-table doesn't seem nearly as bad.]

Wow that's
good luck with that one.
Does it at least smell like cooked beef?

[hasitsthorns]

[ She lives to please. ]

i mean
it's an improvement from the other couch, which was in taters from the great prank war apparently

and surprisingly, yes
very hamburgery

That table looks a bit like something I had back home.

[It's not it, but it has the same kind of "definitely made by a guy who knows jack all about interior design" charm.]

[aroundthecoroner]

You
had a taxidermy deer?

[And he thought his hobbies were weir- nevermind he still has absolutely no room to judge.]

[tongueamok]

My uncles were hunters of many a great beast. They liked the hooves.

[Particularly in decorating, apparently.]

[imhisaunt]

Well, um, I did find this

[Delmar shyly holds up this odd toy-lamp fusion]

It...It's not so bad compared to the others you people are sharing.

[In fact he almost finds it cute except for the fact that it looks like it had been decapitated]

[text still sorry bro]

[aroundthecoroner]

Oh
that's
That's creepy, sorry.
I hope someone takes it off your hands.

[Because HE SURE DOESN'T WANT IT.]

[Delmar does not yet understand text (he's from the 60s, k) so his responses will be video]

[imhisaunt]

[Delmar was afraid of that.]

I wish it had either been just a lamp or just a teddy bear. I feel sorry for the poor thing.

[He suddenly realizes that probably sounded stupid]

...Oh. Sorry. I shouldn't say dumb things.

I do not understand why anyone would want such a thing. [ Actually: ] Any... of these things. There is no practical use to speak of.

Hey, Dave makes a pretty decent coat rack.
I see your point re: the chair, though.
It's taller than me,
I'd have to use another chair to even get on it.
Maybe someone with magic flying powers or something might want it???

[sheathes]

It would still be highly unstable. The slightest adjustment of weight would be enough to cause a fall. And no doubt a painful one, from such a height.

Why "Dave"?

( The attached image is... half of an... interesting couch. Not quite the ceiling feature anyone wants, especially when its broken the lights. )

Don't think it lights up.

Re: text.

[aroundthecoroner]

Jesus Christ.

[There's not much else to say to that.]

And I thought Dave was bad.

[dedikated]

Not sure how that's getting out.
Suppose it makes it easy to figure out where people live.

( Well. It... does... )

[skycall]

My goodness, how would anyone sit in such a chair? [ Chairs should not somehow look lanky and spidery, ok. ]

text

[aroundthecoroner]

By jumping, I think.
Or getting a ladder.
Flying? Does anyone here fly?

[lifetothefullest]

That chair is really unnerving.

[And he could come up with a good psychological explanation for why that is, but he's not going to. He really doesn't want to keep looking at it.

Same with this thing, which he attaches an image of with his next comment.]

If anyone wants this, or is even just willing to destroy it so I can fit it through the door and out of my house, they're welcome to it.

[It's awful and he hates it and as much as his injuries from the arena were pretty minor, they do mean it's difficult for him to wrestle with furniture and so he'd really appreciate the help.]

[text]

[aroundthecoroner]

To be honest I think yours is worse.
I would not sit in that if you paid me.

[He totally would, if someone so much as asked, but whatever.]

text

[evocation]

Those are fucking awful. Did you seriously name it? I think that means you're like legally required to keep it.

text

[aroundthecoroner]

Wow don't be mean.
You'll hurt Dave's feelings.
Are there even laws in this place?
If so I'm about to break one because someone else wants the table.

ten years late but i'm tagging you anyway

[ghostlocked]

wtf dont name it dave u asshole.

illegal

[aroundthecoroner]

Wait why not?
And why is everyone so hung up on me naming it?

Text

[elegant_and_proud]

This chair is free to a good home. I decided to keep this one.

Text

[aroundthecoroner]

Ok the second one is neat.
The first one though.
Jesus Christ.
It looks like someone skinned a giant earwig
and decided for some unholy reason to make furniture with it.
