It lives under a bridge.  Or at least, your sub-flooring.

Gee, mine looks good compared to that  [barf]

Would be even better except that it is also our den/tv room and ladypine has some heaps in the other corners  ;/

If decorating was more on my priority list, my home office might look more like an Old West sheriff's office, complete with a rack of Winchesters  :lol:

Judging by the cases, at least one of the denizens is a "beer" drinker.

(Have to put "beer" in quotes on account of the brands represented.)

Amazing.  I've never gotten remotely that bad.  And I have slob tendencies.

I remember on TFL or THR a half dozen years ago, there was a thread to post 'the messiest reloading bench.'
I posted a picture of mine in its worst state and they declared me winner even though it was about the 4th post.
 :rofl:

It looked amateurish compared to the 'home office' pics.

How? How did they find people worse them me?


 :O


I mean, seriously, I should show dad the ashtray/computer and say "SEE! SEE!! I could be worse!!". And I've had soda can piles, but never even remotly as high as my chair seat, let alone the DESK!

Also, serveral of those guys need a dog. Seriously, they don't even need to feed it. It would find plenty of forageing around their "desks".  [barf]

Is that a urine jug under the table?

Edit: The backgrounds of many of the pictures look like they are in the same structure,  several have nasty looking sleeping quarters in the background, and they seem to be bright neon signs that flash 'MENTAL ILLNESS."
My take on this is that they were taken in an abandoned building where homeless squatted and made their own internet cafes.

I've lived with people who would have let things get like that, had Spoon and I let it go (Bedlamite, remember Bug?).

My desk may have a few empty cans on it, but it usually gets cleaned off once every couple weeks, at least...

I have been known to let things go, but if I want to get any work done, clutter is a no-go. I can't work like that.
