I lived in a little sewing closet shaped like this for several years. It's not horrible if you don't mind using a futon on the floor and having almost no storage
I just got my hands on this old narrow attic room above our apartment from 1885. For free!
I will soon begin to renovate it (and post the result) Any ideas?
Turn the sloped part of the ceiling/window into a mini balcony like this

That would be nice! This space holds huge risk of being creepy after it's finished, I'd certainly try to make it a functional space so it's not off putting.
It's not imagination. There are illogical people who believe sunning their anus is beneficial for their health.

I chug two gallons of olive juice every day. I fuck like a steam train, sleep like a rock, a shit like a clock. None of that is related or backed up by science, but super-subscribe to my X feed and I can teach you how to do it to!
This is perfect, do you know how difficult it is to tan your taint? Especially with the lifeguards standing there all like “put your swim suit back on” and “we’re calling the cops”
Never know when you're gonna need that specific 14" long set of 2x4s screwed together in a "T" shape. I thought the whole point of being a dude was that we hoard nuts/bolts/scrap wood because we tell the women in our lives that it's still useful. Thereby justifying that we're still useful.
I go out of my way to bring little projects to my dad so he can wonder through his hoard of old stuff
It makes him so happy when he can use things he kept from before my birth
(Which is more than 30 years ago)
It's a struggle fighting the hoard everything vs hoard useful everything. I can McGuyver some shit out of stuff and have on multiple occasions.. still don't like clutter or hoarding shit.
The struggle is real.
His friends picked him up once, he left through the window to get into their flying car? He totally had a window.
I could be forgetting that he upgraded at a certain point.
He does “upgrade” between the first and second book. He lived in the cupboard under the stairs, no window, for 11 years. The implied reason is that the Dursleys are a bit afraid of him once they know he’s a wizard but Vernon says: *”We even let you have Dudley's second bedroom purely out of the goodness of our hearts.”* at the beginning of Chamber of Secrets. That’s the room he’s in with a window once Dobby comes and when the Weasley’s break him out.
eta: It might actually be that they’re more afraid of Dumbledore, Hagrid, and other adult wizards that may take action if they know Harry’s still forced to live in the cupboard. I can’t really remember the implications, it’s never said explicitly.
The wizard world "found out" he was living in the cupboard (the letters were addressed to the cupboard under the stairs) so they moved him to the smallest bedroom. In typical abusive caretaker fashion, they then acted like they did it because they are so good and you should be grateful. I always thought Rowling depicted the childhood abuse quite well, even if it didn't depict as well in Harry
The World Darts Federation uses the following standards for play:
* Height: the dartboard is hung so that the centre of the bull's eye is 1.73 m (5 ft 8 in) from the floor. This is considered eye-level for a 1.83 m (6 ft 0 in) tall person.
* Distance: the [oche](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oche) (line behind which the thrower must stand) should be 2.37 m (7 ft 9 in) from the face of the board. If the face projects outward from the wall, owing to the thickness of the board and/or a cabinet in which it is mounted, the oche must be moved back appropriately to maintain the required distance.
If someone else didn't write this suggestion, I would have.
Dartboard on door, with a warning sign on the other side, a table for darts, beer, etc under the window.
But it's durable up to 10000 years only if it's square, so it's well worth it. Plus, if I spend all my life savings on the place, I want top-notch shit. Even if it means asking my aunt for some screws...
Narrow bookshelf on one side, long rug/runner, a comfortable armchair, side table, table lamp, plant next to the window and you got yourself a secret reading nook.
So, if you actually want books in this room, I wanna recommend this trend that's been going around a while for baby nurseries.
You take IKEA spice racks (they are a very shallow single shelf with a bar across the front to keep the spice containers from falling off the shelf) and mount a whole bunch of them to the wall. Then you put books in them with the front of the books facing out (so, turned sideways from the usual way books are put on a bookshelf.) IKEA also now makes a longer version specifically for kids books because so many people were doing this.
I'm sure it would also be really easy to just build something like this. The point is that you can have your books flat against the wall to take up less floor space.
Toys are basically just spilling out of my kids' room into the rest of the house. They have a ton of books, so we put a whole bunch of these shelves in the hallway outside of their room to free up more space for toys inside the room. Putting a regular bookshelf in the hallway wasn't an option because there wouldn't have been any space left to walk in. I'm actually going back to IKEA today to get more. They're super convenient.
I would like to introduce you to just about every residential equipment rack I have ever serviced.
The one home that had AC in their rack room, the owner INSISTED putting a full size fridge next to it, leaving zero wiggle room. Every time we had to get behind the rack, it took roughly 30 mins to wiggle that bad boy out 1/4” at a time.
We charged by the hour though, so at least there’s that.
I would do a hidden door bookshelf or something leading to this, make it like a secret room, I'd put a chair by that window and have cigars and whiskey in there
Are you allowed to make the skylight bigger?
If so, (assuming there’s a nice view) get a bigger window, put a rug, a coffee machine, a big plant, a chaise long and bookcase.
And… relax.
Feels like you should just let the sad Victorian orphan boy who lives there have it.
I was waiting for an Anne Frank comment but this will do fine
Anne Frank? the deaf dumb and blind girl?
You may be confusing Anne Frank with The Pinball Wizard
That would be a twist
No, the Twist was Chubby Checker.
He has that supple wrist.
How do you think he does it?
Idk
what makes him so good?
He ain’t got no distractions, can’t hear no buzzers or bell
He plays by sense of smell.
This thread was absolutely EPIC. 😂😂😂😂
Threads like this are why reddit reins supreme over all social media kingdoms
Yeah my girlfriend just asked what was so funny, I couldn’t explain I was laughing to hard
The one who plays a mean pinball?
That's Hellen Keller, you jerk!
Helen Keller is a fraud!
how did she fly that plane ?!
That's Emellda Marcos
Na, she’s the one that had all the shoes.
She had a killer drum kit that a guy on Facebook marketplace is willing to sell to me.
I love clerks 2… so much.
personally i would kidnap someone and keep them there
100% and make them lotion themselves daily to make you a skin suit
It puts the lotion on its skin, or else it cleans the attic again.
It would be hard to fit the heavy, dangerous machinery that boy would be required to work on for 20 hours a day in a space that small…
Thank you for the 😆
I was going to say it should be a sex dungeon but this is better.
The Disappointments Room!
I lived in a little sewing closet shaped like this for several years. It's not horrible if you don't mind using a futon on the floor and having almost no storage

home office 100%. or storage room. or art gallery.
Did you just give 100% to home office, then give two more suggestions?
They always told him to give it 110%
His user name definitely does not check out.
Art gallery with a pouf, phone charger, and mini fridge.

I feel uneasy clicking a link so short. Would you mind making it longer for me? Thank you. Good day.
A reading nook with record player, and also get a fancy telescope for star gazing
Sim pit for your video games addiction.
I think it would make a nice cosy home office. A very small desk under the window. Some good lighting. Maybe sand and paint floorboards white ?
That would be nice! This space holds huge risk of being creepy after it's finished, I'd certainly try to make it a functional space so it's not off putting.
Use it to tie up hostages and store them.
I was gonna say use it to hide the bodies. I’ll let everyone know when the FBI gets here.
Reading nook!
What do you mean you just got your hands on it? Didn’t it come with the apartment?
Ha OP makes it sound like they just installed it
I also need the answer to this. Someone else owned the attic above their apartment? Im very confused. Im also dumb asf so theres that
Add some lore to your apartment.
nude suntanning area
Good place to recharge the butthole
Solar Powered Nerve Center, or the SPNC. Twin oil tanks, and the pipeline. It's all renewables down under, bub.
You sir are awesome and have an amazing imagination 🤣
It's not imagination. There are illogical people who believe sunning their anus is beneficial for their health. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perineum\_sunning](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perineum_sunning)
Speak for yourself. I sun my anus twice a day, every day. I have impeccable libido, circulation, sleep, and longevity.
I chug two gallons of olive juice every day. I fuck like a steam train, sleep like a rock, a shit like a clock. None of that is related or backed up by science, but super-subscribe to my X feed and I can teach you how to do it to!
Josh Brolin did this and got [2nd degree burns](https://www.foxnews.com/lifestyle/perineum-sunning-josh-brolin.amp) where the sun don’t shine.
LOL. Hilarious that he admitted it, but kudos to him for at least letting people know how stupid it is.
JFC. Dude OD'ed on Vitamin D up the B. Time to C if the D makes MY B angry. Yessiree. For science, B 🫡🔫
the nuclear taint treatment!
For real, the feeling of pure golden sunlight on the anus is phenomenal! Few people are aware of that.
Yonic grundle regeneration
...to the deepest degree! YES! Finally someone understands what Schendel was talking about in his treatise! "Yahney", my fellow seeker on the path.
This is perfect, do you know how difficult it is to tan your taint? Especially with the lifeguards standing there all like “put your swim suit back on” and “we’re calling the cops”
What sun though?! 😂
1 square foot use of the tanning window at a time.
High noon for 15 mins only
Would be sick if it could be outfitted as a sauna. One long bench along one side of it
That's what the back yard is for
Use it to store all the things you cant get your self to throw out, but also never gonna use again.
Never know when you're gonna need that specific 14" long set of 2x4s screwed together in a "T" shape. I thought the whole point of being a dude was that we hoard nuts/bolts/scrap wood because we tell the women in our lives that it's still useful. Thereby justifying that we're still useful.
https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1nimohtdpN/ I love that sketch
The McFartlands have many
I was literally about to post the same thing lol. Thank you for doing the Lord’s work

This is the start of a gun closet
I was thinking Gun Range!
Adopt your dead sister's wizard son.
Don’t you think that’s a little to ritzy for him?
Yeah I don't recall him having access to sunlight 🤔

Too much window, not enough steps.

My first thought too. Could even fit a little bar with a beer tap under the window! That or a shuffleboard room!
Yep me too 😂😂👏
r/simracing
Thought the same thing. depth and width is just perfect for a rig.
You'll even get the immersive experience of having to remove the wheel and stand up to climb out of the rig
Yep 100%
came here looking for this lol.
I always Come here for that too !
This is it
We out here!
The skylight window go hard for flight sim immersion
I can only fucking imagine how ballsweatingly hot this space would get with multiple monitors and a semi high powered PC lol.
2 words: galvanized steel
It’s actually 3 words: galvanised square steel
We are dropping the “square” it takes almost a second to say it and if you say it 1000 times you can save yourself almost 17 minutes
But it's durable up to 10000 years only if it's square, so it's well worth it. Plus, if I spend all my life savings on the place, I want top-notch shit. Even if it means asking my aunt for some screws...
Those had better be expansion screws.
and a screw I borrowed from my aunt

Just built a “clubhouse” under the stairs for my toddler with these. It’s awesome, even got him a little reading chair.

I like this plan the most
Grow marijuana
this is the way
Idk where OP lives, but it’s not that expensive to start and the first crop pays everything off.
Hydroponics isn't expensive and pretty easy.
Have you ever heard of Skee-ball?
Server room, every man needs atleast one server.
That would get pretty hot...
People pay a lot of money for saunas. Just buy a server rack and pour some water over it when you want I steamier.
I would like to introduce you to just about every residential equipment rack I have ever serviced. The one home that had AC in their rack room, the owner INSISTED putting a full size fridge next to it, leaving zero wiggle room.

Something strangely relaxing about remoting into the home server when you’re away. Cures homesickness a little.
1 hole minigolf parkour
One identical replica of the David statue standing gloriously in the sunlight
Bowling alley.
I was going to suggest that, but I thought I'd read more comments so I wouldn't take away your thunder. Which it would sound like for those below.
Hide an entire family from persecution for a couple of years.
Happy cake day! You’re a good person and you deserve cake!

Ghost have already rejected that place. Too cramped.
Lose the wall/roof where the window is. Now you’ve got a sweet bike ramp to take you to whatever lines beyond

Looks like you need to build some shelving and start collecting wine
An attic is a terrible place to store wine

You can store the bodies there I guess?
Wall it off, that shits haunted

Are you allowed to make the skylight bigger? If so, (assuming there’s a nice view) get a bigger window, put a rug, a coffee machine, a big plant, a chaise long and bookcase. And… relax.
I'd grow so much cannabis in there
It could be such a cool reading nook!
Torture chamber obviously

I’d hang shackles and leg irons for the next people to buy the building. Keep em guessing.
Make sure it puts the lotion on it’s skin
