    I've retired The Box

    It's been a bedside table, a coffee table and most recently a computer desk, but after three and a half years of service, which is a long time in box years, it was time to put him down

    I have finally bought some furniture.

    Please pay your respects to The Box here and to make a thread of it, share your favourite cardboard box memories, or post a photo of your desk or something, I dunno.

    Post the box picture again. The old link is lost to history.

    EDIT - No it hasn't. I'm thinking of Molton's dinner.

    With Sama upgrading to actual human furniture and Spoon getting shitfaced I feel like out little TTH has really grown up recently. Emotional stuff.

    Yeah, was shocked the missus was up for it when I pushed the idea.

    To be fair though it was that or a second dining table type thing and that would have just been pointless.

    Yeah, thats one of the big things I noticed when moving here. You don't get too many terraced houses, and where you do they are within a housing association and nobody wants one of those.

    I used to tidy it every two weeks or so, but got fed up of it acquiring unwanted clutter so I just gave up and it's been a mess for about six months now.

    On a SERIOUS note, how do those massive piece of shit Tornado Alley wooden house do for heating? My science-less mind makes me think they're freezing once the temperature drops below the surface of the sun, but maybe there is some bullshit method ('The wood traps farts') that cheats the system.

    Mine is not wooden but it is cold as fuck. I think I'm at 16 degrees right now with the heater at full blast and it is not even that cold outside.

    Is it just me who doesn't have a srs bizness PC? I've been laptop-only since about 2007. That does mean that my desk is an absolute bomb site though.
