Ask a question (or three!) here (just in case the conversation has fallen into a lull):
Don't you wish your LJ was hot like mine?

Recommend me something based on the following:
- Looking for some nu metal bands to listen to, something like Deftones or Disturbed
- Websites to go to when you're bored, for eg. buzzfeed
- If anyone knows a recipe for gluten free croissants that actually tastes like croissants PLEASE LET ME KNOW YOUR MAGIC

It's Been Nice Chatting
Select your goodbye remark:
Have a good one

Oh and by the way:

YOUR LJ GIVES ME WINTER VIBES SO IDK ABOUT THIS WHOLE HOT THING.
It's all white with a bunch of hibernating trees. TOTALLY A WINTER.

[poisonfield]

IT WAS MEANT TO LOOK LIKE THE LJ EQUIVALENT OF AN IKEA STORE! D:

[absolutelybatty]

I have actually never been inside an IKEA store, tbh.

[poisonfield]

But... where do you buy your stylish, cheap, poorly made, Swedish furniture?

[absolutelybatty]

LOL. From regular furniture shops, apparently. And we had to move last year so a lot of our furniture ended up being second hand because of reasons.

[poisonfield]

All my furniture that's not from Ikea is second hand, how do people even afford brand new decent quality things?

[absolutelybatty]

I don't even know. Furniture is so expensive. We got a magazine in the mail the other day for...that furniture brand that's...a year or something??? But I was having a look, and they want $100+ for some spindly little wooden chair without cushions. What even...??

[poisonfield]

I've been looking for a trunk for storage and some places wanted up to $350 for a new wicker trunk. After getting a metal one of ebay and buying all the metal paints it cost me $70 and a weekend of my time all up.
Moral of the story, if you want nice new things you need a sugar daddy.

[absolutelybatty]

Refurbished furniture is the best. We did the same thing with a little three drawer cabinet; scraping off all the old white paint, sanding it down, and then re-staining it. Totally cheaper than buying something new.

It is frankly a little bit frightening how accurate that statement is though.

[poisonfield]

Well since we weren't born Kardashians, we've gotta have a plan b :P

[kayable]

ahahahaha omg

it's not minimalistic enough for ikea xD xD

[poisonfield]

Awww now I need to go and change my layout *cries*

[starkwars]

If I want to kill time or I'm bored I go to pinterest or imgur. :D

[poisonfield]

I thought imgur was just for uploading. I will have to investigate further *puts on fedora and trench coat*

[starkwars]

Nope! You can also browse the popular images of the day (and those not so popular) favorite and upvote comments and images. It's a lot of fun!
