    Blue moon is a terrible choice if you intend to have more than half of one. Just get a loaf of bread and dip it in a keystone Ice, it’ll taste better and have less wheat.

      It says they moved in today. I’m guessing the place they got the beer from was closer and or easier to resolve. Maybe next week they’ll get around to it haha

    I would put the TV on the fireplace, other than that it’s perfect

    Great start!
    I would put the monitor on a box, so you can lean back in the chair and put your feet up

    Tilt the screen up then it’s not bad. I do r8 the Mario Kart 8, gr8 choice m8.

    Belgian/Blue Moon is OK, you can’t really win with American beer brands, but I’d think the occasion would call for something more special, a local craft or import.

    Oh man, I forgot about those days. When I got my first apartment it was a real wakeup call for how many things I had always taken for granted. Even just little things that you never had to think about before. Clothes hangers, clothing irons, wash cloths, spoons! All of those have to be purchased. I made a TV stand out of cinder blocks and a board, and then I realized I didn’t even have a TV. I bought a cat piss couch for $35 and rented a rug doctor to clean it. I found a dining room table and chairs in an alley and carried them 2 blocks home and washed them off with the hose outside. I had no electronic entertainment, and this was before smart phones, so I would sit at my table that I found in the alley, drink beer, and solve a 1000 piece puzzle. It didn’t really matter much, because I was all about socializing and partying back then. I rarely spent time at home alone. Those first few adult years are pretty cool, in a desperate and inventive sort of way.

    If you get a mini fridge you can put the TV on top thus solving the neck strain issue. It will also allow you to keep refreshments close and cold, thus solving the beer problem. No need to thank me.

    3/10

    TV needs to be higher and beer needs to be colder. While I disagree with your choice of beer, I didn’t deduct for it.

        Right there? None. No beer of any kind should be room temp. Dark beers like stouts and black ales can be served in the mid 40’s to 50’s but most everything else is below 50.

        Personally, I like Guinness and coffee stouts at the house.

        But if I’m out shooting pool and planning on drinking a fair amount I’ll just get a cheap pitcher of pisswater beer like Miller light.

    The choice of beer is a little bit bow de bow de dag de dag dag, TV’s not bad for yoru first rig, Mario Kart is a good move; there’s a whole genre of chicks who have “I’ll beat you in Mario Kart” on their dating profiles. Need some milk crates to go under that TV before your chin welds to your chest. Otherwise carry on citizen.
