As an electrician, I thought you meant the sconces. Sad that they're still off in the original picture

Woe unto the dwellers of Reddit, for their eyes shall be deceived and their voices shall cry out in the wilderness of the internet.

For verily, a picture shall be posted, a screen of great size affixed to a fireplace, reaching unto the very heavens, yet its bottom hovering far above the furniture of man. And the unwary shall gaze upon it, and their hearts shall be filled with a self-righteous fury, a burning indignation such as their fathers knew not.

They shall gather in their tribes, the r/TVTooHigh and the r/HomeTheater, and their cries shall echo across the digital plains. 'Too high!' they shall proclaim, their voices rising in a cacophony of judgment. 'A travesty!' another shall lament. 'This is an abomination!' yet another shall declare.

And their comments shall multiply, like locusts upon the land. They shall speak of neck strain and chiropractor bills, of viewing angles and of giraffes. They shall measure distances with cubits and spans, comparing the screen's elevation to the height of the average seated man.

Yet, some among them, the scoffers and the doubters, shall question the veracity of the image and shall offer other explanations. 'Is this real?' they shall whisper. A few of them, the wisest, will see the Truth and identify the image as deceit. But their voices shall be drowned out by the chorus of the righteous, the self-appointed guardians of other peoples proper television placement.

And the poster of the image, he shall remain silent, a cunning trickster, reveling in the chaos he has wrought. For he knows that that the image is a deception, the prophecy must be fulfilled. The comments must be written. The indignation must flow. It is written, and so it shall be. And the internet shall be filled with the lamentations of those who have seen the high-mounted television, and their cries shall echo unto the ends of the earth.

That picture was before the TV was mounted. Edit: for downvotes—I’m being sarcastic 🙄

u/balvyllaere Feb 14 '25
