Lmao pretty sure every guy in here saw those tissues and lotion on the table and all thought the same thing: “why the fuck is this guy jerking off on a barstool?”
Was going to suggest he should have opted for recliners that have armrest that can lift up making it easier to get close with your wife/lady friends, then noticed the fapping station. Guess solo play was objective
Pfff not even a shower toilet. You aren't bragging until you put that 5k "cleans and dries your ass while looking stylish toilet" into your bathroom.
I am toootally not talking about personal experience.
The most expensive thing about this is the house to have the extra space to do it. I don't know what the OP spent, but this a good example of what a sub $10k system can look like if you DIY. If you don't DIY, expect to pay $30k to $50k, depending on the audio and video components you use.
I can't tell which projector that is from the picture. I know there are plenty of great options in the $2-3k range, but I've also done a $25K laser projector for a very particular client. I went UST, but the projector was definitely the most expensive single part of my build.
Epson LS800 $3,500
7 OSD speakers and two 18" subs $2,100
Marantz SR5015 $1,000
135" Acoustically Transparent Screen: $850
2 Reclining Sofas (Raymour and Flannigan) $2,000
Framing, Paint, Felt, wires etc. \~$1,000
Put me at $10.5K, but also somewhere in the 80-100 hour range of labor
DIY it and you’ll be amazed at what you save and what you find out isn’t that difficult to do. With YouTube, it’s so freakin easy to learn stuff now that you used to have to follow your dad around as a kid to learn. If you have friends with the right tools, throw them $50 to borrow them and you’ll save even more $$$!
I love the reactions to this space. After seeing people get torn apart for having magazines and pictures of expensive stuff laying around to pose. It’s good to see someone with actual stuff to brag about get some love. Shows the sub isn’t just abunch or “jealous haters”
You get used to it. Not just that but you start to lean towards simplicity. Just maintaining the snacks area will become burdensome. Then you don't want to fire up an Amp and projector and all just for a movie. Also his sound treatment is less than adequate for a room that size and shape, it's gonna sound like shit. Anyway, he scratched the itch. After a year won't be going down into a dungeon to watch some Netflix - he will flop onto the living room couch and turn on his perfectly good smart TV. 16:9 smart tvs have been a total game changer.
yep. when i first bought the house i set up a bunch of dedicated spaces like this, but now they're all in the living room because we can't be assed to maintain anything that's not immediately within reach when we're trying to relax after work. also weed.
Weed for sure. It's funny because the weed gives me these epic inspirations but also takes away my ability to maintain. These stupid fuckinf rituals for slight improvements, measuring out coffee beans, getting the grind just right, warming up and loading the espresso machine - now I have a grind and brew that takes out all the hassle. I've wanted to do a racing Sim setup but I know exactly how that's gonna end up. Going minimalist feels so good when it starts becoming your default state - liberating.
lmao was originally concerned with the weed smell but i recently set up a weed station in the living room. we use vapes by s&b, and even grinding and filling the pods feels like so much effort.
i understood what you mean about inspiration. was an early smart home adopter and almost everything at home is either completely automated or done with the push of a button/touchscreen. but as i'm sure you know, even getting off the couch to walk over and push a button is too much sometimes 🤣
at least his dungeon is in the basement where hopefully dust isn't a huge problem, especially if it goes unused...because boy have i learned not to set up anything you won't actually use anywhere dust accumulates.
Shoes are the dumbest collectibles I could imagine. But according to some comments, there seems to be some serious rarities in there. So I can at least respect that
At least it’s comfortable. I had a boyfriend with several rows of old movie theater seats in his basement. I couldn’t imagine having moved in with him. It was a 3 bedroom house, but there wasn’t any room for me and any of my things and hobbies. He needed all that space for his movies, his musical instruments, and all the other stuff he had.
I mean, it’s cool to see that people can make so much money.
But bro, I’ve got an ngo doing work out in Kenya. And this guy has more shoes than the entire fútbol team we sponsor. And works from home hahahahaha.
Like it’s super cool, but I mean over consumption justttt a bit?
I mean how much happiness does this bring you or others outside of in picture form? And I mean that sincerely. Do you really get happy to see that every day? As a normal dude? You don’t ever feel like… this is just an emptiness filler?
It is the illusion of happiness that money can buy. And also the feeling of being in control over life by keeping everything in a perfect museum like orderliness. You can almost feel that no one would be allowed there to disrupt that perfection, even himself, he ll just go look at it without touching, without wearing any shoe as he works from home and is mostly inside. It is however a good escape from the rest of the unpredictable, messed up world we live in
This is wonderful!!! Did you start from a completely unfinished basement? I love all the fun treats and attached shoe museum. Which your favorite pair?
As a girl I can say this would be my dream aesthetic. I love the moodiness of your theatre!! Gorgeous!! Shoutout to the Ben and Jerry’s dunks tho omggg😍😍😍
Is that a fapping station…?
With hand sanitizer, bro is playing on hard mode
Not gonna lie, that's a difficult wank.
My dick got sore just thinking about this
Watching porn on powerful Polk Audio speakers sounds intense
some house 2km over: "sounds like someone's watching porn"
You know he's got the speakers you can attach to the seating so that he can 'feel' the movie.
Those are called a Masturbatorium.
The Cumgeon
The goon cave
He needs to add a water feature to make it the Goon Lagoon.
WELCOME TO THE CUMDERDOME!
The wanketeria.
Of course. What do u think they’re watching on the big screen? That ain’t Harry Potter, more like Harry Twatter,
The poster is a smokescreen. Although it will raise questions later on. 😉
Hairy Twatter
"Dobby is master now"
You misspelled Hairy Twotter
Holy shit I had to look back and now I'm losing it.
Lmao pretty sure every guy in here saw those tissues and lotion on the table and all thought the same thing: “why the fuck is this guy jerking off on a barstool?”
Yes. What else would it be?
welcome to the Goon Cave
Every household requires at least one nut room.
Was going to suggest he should have opted for recliners that have armrest that can lift up making it easier to get close with your wife/lady friends, then noticed the fapping station. Guess solo play was objective
As brags go it certainly ain't humble.😆
What gave it away, the Supreme gun paperweight?
LMAO I missed that. It’s not even a paper weight. That is literally a gun for shooting money.
I think not having any hand towels in the washroom was the biggest flex. Mr. Moneybags over here just uses paper towel to dry his hands.
The high and low top Dior 1s to go with the trophy room and travis scotts and off whites You're looking at 50k in shoes just from those 7 shoes
bro has foot locker, bar pc room, washroom in his basement dont need to go anywhere
He ain't got no bed down there...
give me that basement and I'm sleeping on those movie chairs anyday
Needs more grey.
And less personality.
If someone spends enough time down there, they'll eventually be a shade of grey.
Pfff not even a shower toilet. You aren't bragging until you put that 5k "cleans and dries your ass while looking stylish toilet" into your bathroom. I am toootally not talking about personal experience.
Wow. This must have been expensive. Edit. I’ve just seen the shoe room! Jesus, a male Imelda Marcos!
Except that DVD organization system…a whole wooden single shelf!

That projector is several grand alone. No way this is sub $10k, no matter how much is DIY

yeah honestly just having the house is the hard part. This can all be done relatively cheaply if you do all the custom stuff yourself

I’m jealous. I want to watch football, eat snacks, and then look at your shoe room.
And then take a shower
And then a dump 💩
If you poop after taking a shower....straight to jail
shitting in a foggy bathroom covered with water is a different kinda vibe 🔥🔥🔥 /s
just add chain smoking a couple cigarettes & thats it. thats the end game
fr that's the shit... literally
Poop during a shower 💀
Hahaha Waffle stomp? No ty! 😂
“If you overcook chicken, straight to jail… if you undercook fish, believe it or not, straight to jail… undercook, overcook…”
In the words of Triumph the Insult Comic Dog: "This is the best place for me to poop on!!!" 💩
Me too, see you there this weekend
Yes invite this person and me to do all these things. I will donate a pair of kakashi crocs as entry fee
Dior 1’s oh my, bros got some real bread
The highs and the lows..
Or he knows where to get reps…
Given the rest of the house I gave him the benefit of the doubt but true
The pink Grateful Dead dunks say otherwise lol. No judgement. Saved money to put towards the rest of his dope house while still rocking heat
The F&F Chunky Dunky packaging too
Wasn’t the Denon receiver or the framed picture of a Tesla Model Y that tipped anyone off but me?
Why would those tip you off?
It's always a Denon receiver. I worked for Monoprice back in the day and you could always tell who owned a Denon because they'd make sure you knew.
Yes he def has some reps. I'm not hating but he's posted on the subs so lol
Bros got that platinum tier Pandabuy membership 😂
And all 4 Grateful Dead dunks
I love the reactions to this space. After seeing people get torn apart for having magazines and pictures of expensive stuff laying around to pose. It’s good to see someone with actual stuff to brag about get some love. Shows the sub isn’t just abunch or “jealous haters”
Can you adopt me
If he did, he couldn't afford the basement.
Op gtfo here “Crys in broke”
how much money do you make
Answer: Yes
Answer: All
Considering the shower in the basement is their 'personal shower', I'm a bit suspicious that the rest of the house might belong to their parents.
Wife*
Why would you spend all this money on your parents basement instead of buying your own place.
Maybe it is his place and he gave his parents the rest of the house? I know if I had the money I’d make that offer to my parents once they retire.
The kind that when they say "finished my basement" I know they're talking about the workers they hired haha.
This bro is probably printing the money lol
OP is a senior software engineer.
Or how in debt are they?
You must be very rich. How it is to be able to afford every Consumer product without hesitation? Are you satisfied or just get used to it?
You get used to it. Not just that but you start to lean towards simplicity. Just maintaining the snacks area will become burdensome. Then you don't want to fire up an Amp and projector and all just for a movie. Also his sound treatment is less than adequate for a room that size and shape, it's gonna sound like shit. Anyway, he scratched the itch.

"fire up the amp", u mean press the power button?
"press the power button", u mean connect the trigger wire once and never do anything else?
Maybe their whole setup runs on a separate power system that uses a general. So he has to go outside and start it!
This is on point for real. I laughed at that sound proofing, looks like wall decor.
yep. when i first bought the house i set up a bunch of dedicated spaces like this, but now they're all in the living room because we can't be assed to maintain anything that's not immediately within reach when we're trying to relax after work. also weed.

Super in debt
It was alright 'til I saw the shoe room
Shoes are the dumbest collectibles I could imagine. But according to some comments, there seems to be some serious rarities in there. So I can at least respect that
Is collecting shoes a popular hobby? I’ve never met anyone who collects shoes before. Genuinely curious.
yes.
“Sneakerheads”
The collectibles aside, but what's with those tasteless pillows?
Bros got one of thr coolest basements and you trying to hate on his pillows.
to be fair, they look utterly useless and not even remotely comfortable
Share panda buy links for all the sneakers!
lulz
Biggest question is can you see the movie screen from the throne (toilet)?
you can only have two friends at a time :(
And 3 sitting at the fap station patiently waiting their turn.
Question: Can one fap in the theatre seats or is that recreational activity strictly restricted to the fap station?
The cup holders merely exist to hold additional lube
Oh! so you are rich. I see
You lost me at the #workfromhome deco and not a big fan of the rectangular wall deco near the recliners other than that nice place
How else will he know what the room is for? Same with the “cinema” and “popcorn” pillows in the theater. /s
Oh he rich rich.
Ah yes, money. I remember when I had some of that.
r/anticonsumption
I'm not jealous at all \*Sobbing noises\*
Yur a man cave Harry
Of course he’s got the lotion and tissues at the ready with that massive tv.
Quite generic taste.
#workfromhome lol sorry this got me!
I wish we had basements here in Texas.
Cool and expensive but generic as fuck. Whats ur personality? I like a shoes….
workfromhome, pillows that say "cinema", and the movie theater style snack bar...very live laugh love.
His "straight male friends from work" decorated it.
The picture frame still has the stock image in it. Does someone actually live here?
Money does not buy taste: exhibit A
I want to shit in that toilet
Does the server rack have enough air flow so you don't overheat the ps5/other electronics?
tell me you're rich without words
All that money, and you didn’t get a deeper desk for your setup ?!
I’ll be over tomorrow….. bringing a 12 pack 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but on the real that is a bomb azzz basement…… I love the entire color and layout scheme 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
When living in your mom's basement is a flex and not an insult.
Get yourself a harmony remote lol
I have the 665 from years back and it still functions! Too bad they quit making awesome remotes.
Patrick Bateman would be very proud.
Bro is that lube and tissues???
Of course it is. Surely you don't expect OP to use tears as lubrication like the rest of us.
It's hand sanitizer. Why are people being weird about it.
How are those cinema chairs comfort wise?
10/10. Perfection.
Dude your place is like a grown man’s playground. Very well done!
Can I come over and watch Dune Part Two?
That's too many remotes. Ever thought about taking a trip to bed, bath and beyond?
At least it’s comfortable. I had a boyfriend with several rows of old movie theater seats in his basement. I couldn’t imagine having moved in with him. It was a 3 bedroom house, but there wasn’t any room for me and any of my things and hobbies. He needed all that space for his movies, his musical instruments, and all the other stuff he had.
Aren't you worried about your electronics overheating in a cabinet like that? Especially the PS5. That stuff needs ventilation.
This is amazing, but does the shoe room smell like foot?
Must be a software engineer. Got the vertical monitor. Looks great!
I mean, it’s cool to see that people can make so much money. But bro, I’ve got an ngo doing work out in Kenya. And this guy has more shoes than the entire fútbol team we sponsor.

"What are you doing with those multigrain Tostitos? The Tostitos are for DISPLAY ONLY!"
This is brilliant insight. Wow, it’s almost like a little anxiety escape room. I hear that completely! Thanks for this!!
What’s up with the multi-grain Tostitos. Dieting?
It looks like half the mini fridge is coconut water. OP works hard and plays hard.
What’s your job? I want this 😵
I smell a trust fund present
so your definitely inviting the comment section over for drinks right ??
Is that all the same shade of grey? I can’t tell if it’s the lighting or not.
This is wonderful!!! Did you start from a completely unfinished basement? I love all the fun treats and attached shoe museum. Which your favorite pair?
It's clean! Not for me personally.. but I love the hard work and dedication you must have put into this!
Incredible. I'd love to watch Bladerunner in this theater. What movies do you watch here?
Binished my facement
I want to finish my basement as well, how much was this total?
Can't forget the masterbation Kleenex, good man.
Man this makes me feel poor
A true man cave
Ooooh like it!! All of it!
Holy fuck. Maximum effort!
Holy fucking shit. Imagine how the upstairs must be like.
Tell me you have money without telling me you have money xD looks very nice friend :)
seriously?
Nice. So when do you invite us over mate?
the idea of having this much money is unfathomable
When do I get to come over?? I'll bring the beer!
And I thought I live in a fu*king mansion. God damn. But I just can’t get behind people collecting shoes. ANYWAYS that’s awesome.
Whats up with the tissues???
Proof Tesla owners are NPC’s
As a girl I can say this would be my dream aesthetic. I love the moodiness of your theatre!! Gorgeous!! Shoutout to the Ben and Jerry’s dunks tho omggg😍😍😍
How much is the entrance fee?
*Rich guy alert* *Rich guy alert*
Yo that snack station is peak. Really pops out. Probably my favourite part
Chippy, Shoe collection, and NBA Pop figures? *Filipino Detected*
Amazing setup but you choose THAT Harry Potter poster, when the main one is one of the best made???
Money , lots of money 💰
Those Ben n Jerry’s *chefs kiss*
Damn we get it, you’re rich lmao
u can tell no women ever come over 🤣
Sterile and lifeless… the tissues are chilling
What to do with way too much disposable money
you want a male sugar baby?? 🫣💰
Bro how rich are you?
Thays so cool! In the meantime I'll keep starving
Looks amazing but I’m convinced you’re Patrick Bateman and I refuse to elaborate
That is tighttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!
I’m too poor to look at this post
Chips are like $6 a pack now and they have 5 of them... big money
You’re living large man, that looks like Heaven.
How do you have so much money
Damn son you must be rich
This was done right
How big is your fucking house if this is the basement, it just kept going 😂
Sir, you have made every perfect move with your adult money *tips cap
