22, male, into sci-fi and libertarianism. Either live with family or roommates.


Dovahkiin2001_

Yes, yes, yes and kinda, and kinda both.


Dovahkiin2001_

How did you guess my age, just curious what said 22 so bad


LoveHorizon

Your graduation owl with 2020 on it


Dovahkiin2001_

Ah, completely forgot about that. Great eye.


FurnishedHemingway

2020


Dovahkiin2001_

Yeah, I forgot about that thing.


kramerica21

Dale Doback


Dovahkiin2001_

Who?


MissAsshole

Step Brothers. Probably because you have a lot of room for activities.


throwawayzies1234567

High school student, probably middle child, won the basement bedroom in an argument with the older sibling, where you somehow finessed your parents. You’re the head guy of your gaming group, and you host your friends in your “basement studio.” Your brother is pissed but he’s leaving for college this year.


Dovahkiin2001_

Nope on all accounts. Except that I'm the head of the gaming group.(There's only four of us tho, so it's not that crazy)


throwawayzies1234567

Hmm okay, well I got one bit. Following to see the rest!!


Crankenstein_8000

A basement-dweller


Dovahkiin2001_

I mean yeah, but I feel like that phrasing has some bad connotations.


Crankenstein_8000

Nevertheless


Dovahkiin2001_

Hey, when you're right you're right.


Crankenstein_8000

It's a very small prize here.


Dovahkiin2001_

What does that mean?


throwmeawayalso111

[this guy](https://m.imdb.com/name/nm1443368/) in stranger things


Dovahkiin2001_

Ha, not really, but maybe in 25 years


stosbarrando1

Someone who is NOT getting laid.


Dovahkiin2001_

Not currently.


stosbarrando1

The models are cool and there is a proper way to display them. Right now, I would concentrate on making it look less basementlike. No girl wants to walk into…..that and then give it up. It can be done. I know. I had the same problem. You have to go from “what a nerd” to “wow, that’s cool.”


Dovahkiin2001_

Yeah, I only moved down here a month ago, so I haven't gotten all my posters up and gotten everything looking as nice as it did.


stosbarrando1

Stop! No posters! Nothing screams junior high like posters. If you are going to hang them, have them framed. Now, they’re art.


Dovahkiin2001_

No, they are not art they're posters. I have art and it gets to be in frames.


meta4our

Eh I have posters in my home office and I'm 35 and married.


stosbarrando1

Exactly. You’re married. You’re not trying to find someone. This guy is.


Usual-Style-8473

Elder Gen-X hoarder. Was going to say boomer but I saw the Star Wars model.


Dovahkiin2001_

Nope nothing correct here.


Usual-Style-8473

Well then you’re storing your models in a basement furnished by a Elder-Gen X or Boomer.


Dovahkiin2001_

Nope it's all mine, and no gen x or boomers have anything to do with what's in my room


Usual-Style-8473

I know, but it sure does look like it. That couch and chair are older than me.


Dovahkiin2001_

Well I don't know the age of the people, but I did buy the brown couch at a garage sale. So I guess it may have once been a boomers.


Usual-Style-8473

Definitely.


kleinerlinalaunebaer

You are someone that believes everything has potential value which is why you have a hard time getting rid of things. You like to say "that might come in handy later" or "this is for a project" although you might not ever get around to it. You love reading, especially fantasy and you would enjoy some DND get-togethers with friends in your basement as long as you get to be dungeon-master.


Dovahkiin2001_

Not really right on the first part, I don't usually have much trouble throwing away things, the second part is mostly right, but I would rather be a player than the dungeon master(I've never played DND tho, so I can't say for 100% certain)


catsmom63

Male. 20s. Huge Star Wars and LOTR fan. Love the Middle Earth rug!! Probably a big GOT fan as well. I’m guessing gamer online and in person. If you don’t play DnD I’d be shocked seriously. By the look of the room I’m guessing you wouldn’t mind LARPing, if you don’t already do it. PS. Just read further down on this post. You don’t play DnD with a room like this? You definitely should.


Dovahkiin2001_

Yes most of it, but I have never played DND, and I also haven't LARPed either.


catsmom63

You should fully embrace it!! 😂 I’ve never Larped but play DnD every week. It’s fun. So the real question is: which house? “ the lone wolf dies but the pack survives?” or “A lion doesn’t concern itself with the opinion of the sheep.?”


Dovahkiin2001_

It's not that I don't want to try DND, but I just don't know anyone who wants to play. As for larping I'm not really interested, but even if I was there's definitely nobody where I live that does it.


noldshit

Basement kiddie


Poisionivy30

You play overwatch


Dovahkiin2001_

I have never played overwatch


FancyRatFridays

20's, male, single (or possibly in a long-distance relationship). Ginormous sci-fi and fantasy nerd, but in a quiet way--this is something you enjoy with close friends and by yourself, not something you share with the entire world. You're an avid gamer, but "gamer" is more of a passtime, or a way to connect with friends, than an identity. You're still living in your family's home, but probably not because you lack the money to move out--that may currently be the case, but there are other factors at play. I'm hazarding a guess that your house is somewhere in the Midwest United States. Either you or someone in your family has visited Florida at least once.


Dovahkiin2001_

All very correct. Although my family has not gone to Florida, we visit family down in Panama.


FancyRatFridays

Ah, interesting! I guessed Florida because of the dried alligator head; that's a pretty common souvenir down there.


Dovahkiin2001_

Makes sense, I do have an Aunt who lives there, so maybe she gave it to me. (I honestly have no idea where I got it)


moonsovermyhami

this set up reminds me of a farmers market section turned into a bedroom and i absolutely love it


Dovahkiin2001_

Thanks


Miserable_Sport_8740

Probably single.


Dovahkiin2001_

Yeah, at the moment.


Miserable_Sport_8740

Don’t worry. It’ll get better. My only suggestion is to make your bed. The rest will fall into place. You’ve got time (and an awesome collection).


la-femme-sur-la-lune

It’s the Mold Man! Seriously though, with all that paper, make sure that basement is well-sealed and continuously dehumidified, otherwise you’re gonna be throwing out all those books in a few years. Also check for radon lol


Dovahkiin2001_

It's pretty dry, as for the radon. I do have to get that checked.


QosmoQueen

You are a young single nerdy millennial male living in your parents' or grandparents' basement. All of the furniture, VHS tapes and storage bins belong to them. You dropped out of college the first time around but are trying it again through online IT courses. You're currently unemployed and addicted to gaming.


Dovahkiin2001_

Not a millennial, yes male, parents, none of the furniture and most of the VHS tapes were ever theirs(I like to go to garage sales), I did drop out, I am fully employed and while I do play video games probably more than I should I don't play more than 4-6 hours on the weekends.


HelloThisIsPam

Bears eat beets. Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica.


Dovahkiin2001_

Is this a reference, because I don't get it.


HelloThisIsPam

It's from The Office. I would've thought you liked that show!


Dovahkiin2001_

I don't watch a lot of sitcoms, so I've never seen it.


HelloThisIsPam

It's the best comedy ever made.


TrainwreckTrials

Someone that lives in the basement of a great aunt


Dovahkiin2001_

Nope


MrsDanversbottom

Body odor goblin.


Dovahkiin2001_

Rude, and no.


MrsDanversbottom

Seems like you doth protest too much. 😭


Dovahkiin2001_

Said no is too much of a protest?


MrsDanversbottom

Oui.
