/b/ just had that thread up. I believe somebody from reddit put it all in an album.
Pretty... disturbing seeing the condition those rooms are in.
-
Reminds me of the days when my basement looked like that... except there were ALOT more computers.
-
Yeah, baby, yeah!
I love looking at stuff like this because it makes me feel
SO NORMAL !

Damn. That's just nasty

Suppose I don't have to wig out on my kids so much... No soda bottles or food and no cigarette butts is definitely a plus about their catastrophes (bedrooms).
-
There were two threads about it in /r/sh1ttybattlestations (http://ur1.ca/ajox3), but the second one with more images disappeared. Matt3o has linked the first ones album.
didn't know was from reddit. A friend just posted the direct link to the gallery on twitter

What is this, some squatters den? Perhaps a crackhouse?

Nah dude, see, in America, there's just plain LOTS'O space for everybody... But in other countries, space is at a premium...
Now you know why some /b/ members are so miserable.
But you could also say miserable is due to the people themselves.. My mother finds 4000sqrfeet miserable. yet she never cleans.. buys 5 roombas and 2 mints that annoys the hell outta me during Thursdays... :-X :-X :-X

America.... Fvck yea....

Space is irrelevant. I was talking about the state most of those rooms are in. Looks like a squat or crackhouse they are so unkempt.
Even if you are quite poor there is just no excuse to live in that kind of filth.

Looks like those rooms could use some Lysol...
(laughs at how punny that was...)

A lot of these don't seem real, like it was staged as if "Oh yeah internet, check this **** hole out"
That being said, I'd live on an old school bus.
-
these rooms are indicative of some disorder right? it can't just be the normal i don't give a $$%%

again, we fall into the hole on the topic, "where is the LINE" for disorder.
If the occupants of these rooms are happy, productive human beings. Well, so be it, no?
-
I mean, Are we'' the ones with a disorder by enforcing neatness that offers zero utility?
-
Neatness offers a lot of utility, for basic hygene and health, avoiding bug and vermin infestations... just as examples.
-
It is quite a testimony to rubber dome boards that they can be used as ashtrays and continue to function.
Seeing actual human beings "using" those "work"stations would have been even more interesting.
-

hygene and health? possible yes, but among the deadliest diseases, infectious, congenital, MOST of them you can't scrub and clean away...
-
That's true, but living in a trash pile was probably never good for anyone.
-
i lived in a schoolbus like that. a lot of these aren't even that bad, just less-than idyllic.... y'all need to get out of the cul-de-sac more often.
that anime toy den is pretty ****ing creepy though.

And it just goes to show that no matter how desparate your domestic situation is, you still need a computer.

what you mean like how when you can't even afford to eat?
-
Can't unsee. :(

In reference to those pictures above. For example someone living in a mud hut in the middle of Africa is unlikely to have a computer.

Completely disgusting. I am showing these to my mom, she will never complain again LOL

Wrong, you're never going to be good enough. Unconditional motherly love, what freakin' bull****...

these look like a scene from "hoarders: buried alive"

btw a few of these aren't even crappy, the 13th down, that to me is a "move in station" as it seems someone just moved in and just setup the computer quickly, i've done this myself a few times when i moved, of course this was only for like 2 or 3 days...
and pic 22 with the monitor hanging off the bed and tray and stuff, that's just someone finding an ergonomic station... or just being really lazy.
and 25, while the person is either a weird psycho that uses newspaper as wallpaper or a serial killer, there's some kind of workout contraption at least, that at least get's a thumbs up
plus i don't get it, are these pics old from circa 2005 or do ppl really have crt's? ok ok, aside from those "crt are the only monitors for FPS" type ppl or the ones who need great color reproduction and choose old school crt's for graphic design... why are they around?
I keep a lot of junk, i don't know why but the first computer i built when i made a bit of money when i was 18, a pentium200 was still traveling with me from nyc to va to pa and just recently i decided to throw it out (i kept the chip of course for memories), but i threw away all my crt's, must have had at least 5 between my wife and me, not counting the tv's.
why all the crt's!

I wish I had a high end CRT.... Sadly they stop making them before I got old enough to buy one on my own.
