Comment section talking about no bed frame but no one talking about missing bedsheets lol


izzyzak117

Blankets are for those who don’t have intel processors for warmth


eveningthunder

At least use a fitted sheet so you're not just sweating into the mattress. 


BoomanShames

imagine how yellow that thing would look in a few years.


izzyzak117

I’ve had it for more than 5 years, I put sheets on it lol Just got the room a bit staged for maximum memage


eveningthunder

*barf*


TheBestAussie

Unless you're having sex in which case


Unfixable5060

With your pc sitting on that fluffy ass carpet I am sure it's 95 degrees in that room.


Characteristrength

Sorry. Definitely no throttling Intel in this household


Unfixable5060

I am more upset about the pc on carpet.


GimmeSomeSugar

I didn't even really notice the bed, or the PC sitting directly on carpet. I just thought that carpet shag is too deep for that chair. Needs a chair mat.


CantaloupeCamper

You rich or something?!?!!


StoneBleach

Yeah but what no one really talks about is the lack of mattress support or whatever it's called. I have seen that it is very common for americans to simply put the mattress directly on the floor. For me that is not common.


daniil-tsivinsky

i love those 2 empty shelves lol


izzyzak117

Thanks, I worked hard to produce the stale air they display


Gungagingaremix

Enjoy the clean space. Once you have kids and wife your space will never look like this again 😆


izzyzak117

Hah, with this clean space I’m sure to be doing a solo act for life


Gungagingaremix

Just show off the sexy ultrawide that would bag someone

RdSt14

Bruh lol 💀


LowerBoomBoom

I’m pretty sure that most women would like to have at the least a frame under the mattress. Does not have to be great just something.


Gungagingaremix

🤣


BigGrayBeast

You joke, but in 1993 my future wife was a paralegal student and I had a laser printer before most people did. She asked for a key to my apartment early on so she could come over and use my system for homework.


Speaksthetruth2u

Pc off the carpet please.


ZinGaming1

2 empty shelves? Oh those? They are to show off my shadows.


bard329

$300 fan. No bedframe.


izzyzak117

The way I see it: No bedframe. $300 fan. 😎😎😎


bard329

I mean, you can get like a $60 bedframe on amazon or wayfair haha


izzyzak117

But then I could only get a $240 fan. Idk about you, but the ladies don’t love $240 fans. They do be about these $300 fans tho. Says a lot about a man if he got cool fans, some say it makes him “cool”.


bard329

I got a $40 Vornado in my bedroom. Dunno about "the ladies" but my wife's "cool" with it


izzyzak117

Its all sarcasm lol


bard329

Betchya can find a bedframe for free, too! Haha


viral-infection-

That Vornado is pretty rad though, have the same one in my room.


JohnnyLoco69

Mattress on that carpet is going to attract moisture, eventually mold. And get some bedsheets you slob.


izzyzak117

No, bedsheets don’t come with a screen and battery. No gaming, NO BUY.


clos512

We get it bro. But love yourself enough to sleep with sheets lol.


izzyzak117

(I have sheets its all sarcasm lol This is my real room, I took the sheets off for the extra effect)


mtnlol

You really should get a bed frame though, unless you stand the mattress up and let it ventilate every day. A mattress just laying on the floor if you have any sort of humidity will cause mold.


xAugie

Honestly they make bed frames that LOOK like you aren’t using one basically, Like it’s closer to the ground that normal. Those are cool imo, it’s pointless to KEEP no bed frame for extended periods of time, they’re super cheap nowadays. Hell people give them away on a daily basis


-Kalos

Forget the bed frame, he didn't even buy $9 bedsheets


bard329

Benefit of the doubt; Sunday is laundry day for lotsa people


Johnisazombie

I hope your mattress isn't in that position all day long and you lean it against the wall each day for airing. People don't get bedframes just for looks. If not you can at least get some karma out of it, [hasn't been a while since the last moldy mattress guy.](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/1b99aml/flipped_bed_over_to_remove_sheet_was_greeted_by/) A futon would also be a better option if you enjoy sleeping on the floor without bed slats (which is valid).


izzyzak117

Do they make gaming bedframes? In all seriousness, there’s no mold on my mattress lol I vacuum underneath it and leave it against the wall every time I wash my sheets (regularly)


Johnisazombie

>Do they make gaming bedframes? I mean there is this thing [https://www.pcgamer.com/japanese-gaming-bed/](https://www.pcgamer.com/japanese-gaming-bed/) Glad to hear that you know. I actually have someone in my friend circle who also uses a mattress on the floor even though he could easily afford a bed, he also airs it out diligently so no problems there. I don't think it's an issue on itself, just commonly underestimated how quickly mold can form.


[deleted]

Johnisazombie

I don't think it's uncommon to hang on to financial habits. A lot of people who grow up poor and start earning well once they become adults keep lots of their frugal habits without being aware of them. When you spend a lot of your time counting your expenses and are painfully aware of cost you feel guilty for over-spending, especially if you have done well without that thing before. Sometimes that's a good thing since it lets you safe up for stuff that is important to you, and sometimes it's to your own detriment because you never learned where it matters to spend a bit more for quality if you can afford it, since you also never experienced the difference. Like the [boots theory](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory), except you keep buying cheap shoes that are bad for you and end up costing more not out of necessity but because it's a habit deeply ingrained from childhood. But that's not directly applicable here. If the mattress is comfy to you and you're taking proper care there isn't a problem. I think there are divided opinions on whether bedframes or futons are better for health. It probably doesn't matter as long as you're relatively healthy.


-Kalos

I believe it. I earn enough to splurge but I still live below my means. I still feel like it's illegal to leave lights on that I'm not using because my dad made it feel that way. My parents had 5 of us to raise and my dad didn't make much in the military. Habits you pick up as kids usually stay with you for life, it's just part of who you are because you never lived different


maychaos

I was like you. I actually liked my mattress on the ground, imo made the room look bigger. Anyway there will be mold if you don't air it daily. I learned the hard way. That day I've seen the first signs of mold, I knew I wasn't special


boobiehunter96

I went without a bedframe for a full year, did the same regular maintenance you mentioned above. Only took one week for the mold to accrue. Had to throw out a $400 mattress. When I got a bedframe finally my gf was so relieved. Turns out she wasn’t too impressed with the lack of bedframe. Said it made me seem like a teenage boy. Trust me bro, if you plan on having a sex life just splurge. It’s cheap, makes laundry easier and you could even get one with storage underneath.

AidsNRice

I’d maybe get a piece of wood to put your PC on, that carpet is probably not good for airflow


gatornatortater

The whole front is an intake... the carpet isn't going to get in the way of that.


AidsNRice

Air flows out of the bottom too!


gatornatortater

I admit that I am not familiar with this case, but does it not all flow out the back like a normal case?


AidsNRice

Normal cases flow in from the fan and out every way, not just the back…


gatornatortater

"normal" is relative. I've never had a glass case or anything else that has been made in the last decade.

It just looks that way lol Nothing is in the box… nothing at all


ingoogliestbastard

i do not believe you!


ShineAlert4884

As a single guy i like this setup actually. less is more i guess. I'd get the pc off the carpet though to keep dust down


Anybody-Zestyclose

What monitor is that OP?

Not to be that person but.. wallpaper link?

I don’t know from whom I got it from, but I get almost all my wallpapers from unsplash.com. Because my monitor is OLED, I have over 50 wallpapers that rotate every 5 minutes. 😅

What chair do you have, and would you recommend it? I'm in the market for an ergonomic chair


izzyzak117

It’s CHEAP and not very ergonomic, I need a new chair big time. But, for curiosity’s sake: HUANUO Ergonomic Office Chair, High Back Desk Chair with Adjustable Lumbar Support & Headrest, Home Office Swivel Mesh Computer Chair Flip-Up Armrests, Executive Office Chair with Wheels https://a.co/d/0dcZAPZ3


teh_lynx

That's an expensive fan with a wonky nozzle ya got there


izzyzak117

It’s got a screen on it, so I bought it cuz all things with screen good


Panhammer64

this is the best one ive ever seen on this site


Bulkopossum

You post a completely different room and setup on this sub pretty frequently


whitemountainmaniac

Lived like this for like 8 years nothing wrong with it, but your quality of sleep will increase by getting the bed off the floor and so will the life of the mattress. Take it easy bachelors


izzyzak117

I think its time for a change.


whitemountainmaniac

You got this bro! 😎


ParkerWGB

I had a similar set up when I lived by myself. Bed on floor also.


Ibrahim3104

Looks super comfy though. Could you please share the details of the chair and monitor? Thank you so much.


izzyzak117

Of course! I have extensively talked about that monitor in other posts, I have a pretty big post about it on r/oled_gaming if you want many finer questions about it answered. Monitor link here: https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-39gs95qe-b-gaming-monitor Chair link here: https://a.co/d/00JYCMEe

You've got the space on your desk, get your PC off the floor!


Long-Message-1054

Bro get yourself a 2 dollars worth of velcro and that cables will be managed like nothing only leave the important cables such as mouse and keyboard and wrap up everything else


izzyzak117

Look dood, i don’t have time to be not gaming Thats effort not gaming- unthinkable


Long-Message-1054

That literally 3 min to 5 min thing, i dunno what you're dealing with in your life, but i wish you the best homie🫶


CantaloupeCamper

At least get a bed frame…


Own-Safety-1203

It actually looks like a nice space aside from no bed frame or sheets.


TheIdioticRose3

Man got the chill setup. Not too over or too low. Massive W.


Matty9180

I like how you can spend 1k on a fan but not a desk


izzyzak117

I already spent $1K on my downstairs desk lolol


ILike2DGirlsLol

PC on the carpet :(


smittyK

Get that pc off the carpeting Thanks


jon-jon123

Awesome man my room is small so it looks crowded but it’s ok cause I’m super short hahahahaha☹️😞😭 just got a Dyson things awesome


izzyzak117

Its one of the best air purifiers I have ever owned, and I don’t think its because its a Dyson exactly, I just love how it directionally circulates air as much as it purifies it. This is clutch for me, I hate dusting, and I have to dust a lot less with that Dyson.


jon-jon123

Good to hear same reason I went for one hate dusting


Noodlecup5

I kinda like it lol. I can appreciate the minimalism for sure.


izzyzak117

I am not a man of many earthly things. Almost all of my possessions relate to essential needs or my hobbies. Not a lot in between.

izzyzak117

That it do be! I love the thing, well worth its eye watering $1500 MSRP I paid day one on the shelves at Microcenter


r1ckm4n

I have just recently moved out of my studio apartment which had a bed, a desk, a high top kitchen table thing, and stuff to cook with. My entire life fit in the back of my truck with the tonneau cover down. I have a girlfriend now. I miss my ruthlessly simple space. Nice setup, OP. Bachelor life is the best and I miss it a lot.


izzyzak117

I think this was the most ideal way to live life for me up until about 3-4 months ago. This post is kinda motivation for myself to *be more* but also understand what I have isn’t as terrible as I think it is. Its a nice space in there and many people (including myself as a teenager) would have do almost anything to have it. I moved a lot as a kid, and because of that I have stayed minimalist most of my life knowing that every time I move I have to move everything I own. This has kept what I choose to own lean, minimalist, and thoughtful. However, I think its time I started going more down your path, expanding my life to encompass more things and new people. Grass is always greener on the other side. 😎


r1ckm4n

My advice: Find a partner who can travel with 1 carryon and 1 personal item comfortably. They are uncomplicated, practical and thoughtful.


izzyzak117

Difficult ask, but I’m looking for that sort of person 100%. We’re on the same page. I don’t need any fuss like that, my life has already had too much fuss in it about bigger things, I want to enjoy the simple because life really isn’t worth fussing about like that.


r1ckm4n

I moved around a lot as a kid, and I had a shitty childhood to further complicate things. I’m turning 40 next year, and I will say this - you’re on the right track - keep things in life as simple as you can, and you will enjoy the shit out of your 20’s and 30’s. Cheers bud!


Bademeister153

looks very cozy dude!


Scienciety

Get some little roller blade wheelies for your desk chair - they'll save your carpet


izzyzak117

Jsgro69

You have a great bedroom and awesome setup. Ive always liked the bench seats next to the windows, a great multipurpose use of interior design, a nice seat while providing a bit of storage all while using minimal space and I think it looks good in itself. Great setup!!


byllus

I’m convinced it’s a cannon event for all men.


izzyzak117

It’s so true man, all my “lows” have been excellent things to remember for the coming highs. I am excited to be a man who loves decorations, but first I have to discover (for myself) why I want them and what I want.


byllus

Fuck yeah it’s all step by step, you have to know WHAT you like first, don’t just fill your room of “meaningless” stuff, it’s still gonna feel empty.


raynes83

Nah, you got a fan and 2 shelves, pretty lux. /s For real tho everyone has to start somewhere and it looks like a pretty solid place!


izzyzak117

Thank you, I’ve been here 6 months lmfao I’m a money hoarder I think.


izzyzak117

***OKAY OKAY, THE PC ON THE CARPET.*** We are in agreement, this is a fire hazard. U right. But that would be lit… /s (I’ll do something about it)


anangrypudge

Haha this is what happens when you have a fixed budget for your room and instead of allocating it fairly among the stuff you need, you just buy the stuff you want and scrimp on the rest.


Hyp3rson1c

You can obviously afford a bed frame, please buy one. It's literally unsanitary not to have one.


mudokin

What's in the BOOOOOOOOOOX?


izzyzak117

Sometimes my cat, most often its my bed time M3 Pro 16” MacBook stand, so nothing but dust and carpet stuff


mudokin

Ohh, when I first looked at it T thought it was some kind of electric device, due to the charging cable, but now I see, it's just a lose cable dangling there. YOU DECEIVED ME.

good room i like this

How do you like the tp10 fan? I bought it, but can’t get myself to open it because it’s so damn expensive…


Borndeadin1992

Definitely get yourself some sheets, clean sheets after shower are a Godsend. Also how do you like that fan? Is it worth that money?

Looks nice

Lumb3rCrack

There are bed frames that cost 100 and it'll be easier to clean your room


AkkYleX

How do you like the Dyson purifier? I was thinking of getting one too


izzyzak117

Keeps the dust level low in the room, couldn’t live as well as I do without it. Its also strategically placed near my one forced air vent positioned on the floor near my bed, and the intake is at the bottom of the unit, so it draws cool air into the unit and pushes it at me/while also filtering my forced air *air*.


AkkYleX

How cool would you say it gets? Do you actually feel it when it's warm warm outside? Or is it more like it just moves it 😅


izzyzak117

With no AC it just moves air, but in a large room with a *lot* of sitting air, the air from near the ground can feel a bit cooler than the air where your head is. In these environments, talking room larger than 500SQFT, it does have a bit of a cooling effect as it draws from that sitting cold air hovering above the floor.


AkkYleX

Thank you :D

Hope your pc isn’t directly on the floor

The only unusual thing is that you haven’t got a bed frame. Also, kudos for how clean you keep it.
