I used to worry about what women would think when they saw my home, but it turned out that none of them ever see it at all so I might as well be true to myself and collect all the My Little Ponies.

My (now) wife freaked out coming to my apartment the first time. Turns out, she's a huge Rush fan:

In my living room at the time:

All I hear is "Eeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

70% sure she just married me for the TV.

"Honey, will you marry me?"

um, I dunno...

She, for sure, did mot married you for your cable management.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago (2 children)

That's an awesome TV.

Has she now learned the rest of the alphabet?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

I think she started with Y-Y-Z. :) Sorry, Rush joke...

I'm guessing D was learned early on

There’s Rush fans, and there’s deep cut Rush Power windows Fans

3 CD towers, but I'm counting only 2 CDs in them. Nice setup though

My husband was worried about bringing me to his apartment for the first time when we were dating because it was filled with tarantulas, scorpions, and snakes. Did not bother me in the slightest and I really got into keeping them too. I did put my foot down on centipedes though because fuck that (too fast, too hot).

Don't kink-shame.

They're like a hundred degrees, centigrade.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

If you ever change your mind, you can just move into my place. Nobody invited the centipedes, yet every spring those creepy bastards find their way in.

If people can't love you because they can't accept that Fluttershy is best pony then that's their loss.

You still have us. Brohoof /)

Best pony? But that’s not Rainbow Dash!

That's a funny way to spell Cheese Sandwich.

I’m a married man in a great relationship. Our office is covered with My Little Pony merch and posters.

She thought it was weird, but she liked it because it was weird.

Might as well collect what you love…as long as you don’t keep them in jars it should be fine.

yea but without the stupid text

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (24 children)

a bit strange but I don't really see the problem tbh. Are these references I'm not getting? I recognize joker and thanos.

Looks like Yotsuba with a skull for a head. Perhaps some 4chan thing?

Me: "I hope you like Lisa Frank!"

Me: immediately ruining the first impression with a full-size framed reproduction of the painting of Lord Vigo from Ghostbusters 2 looming over the foyer. Visitors are often distracted enough not to even notice that it hangs across from a pirate skull and crossbones flag and a queer villain pride flag.

Then they get to the living room which seems weirdly normal; tastefully matched furniture, a couple of landscapes and a reproduction Matisse on the walls, reasonable quantities of clutter on the end and coffee tables. It's almost normal enough to make one forget that the Scourge of Carpathia is watching over their shoes.

But then there's the sign by the bathroom asking guests not to use it for summoning demons. The Van Goku painting of Son Goku from Dragonball throwing a kamehameha in the style of Van Gogh's "Starry Night". A strangely ominous black and white photo of llamas hung by the basement door over a sign that reads "A little party never killed anybody".

No, that first impression was correct. Mine is a house of weirdos. =D

We all know that guy doesn't have the talk game to get ladies through the door.

I kinda want the Thanos poster but without any of the text on it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Ok maybe just the 'sigma' part gone, I want like 90's rap culture Thanos

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Sometimes when you try and go too far into something being cringe it loops around and becomes hilarious and actually pretty cool.

Although I agree that 'sigma' part should be left behind in the cringe zone
