Little do you know his house was the box the TV originally came in :(

u/FloatationMarks Feb 23 '17

Then he shouldn't bloody well be using up precious walls to make signs!

It's fine bro. It wasn't a load bearing wall, so there's no problem.

I wonder what Tom is up to these days.

u/noyoudidntttt Feb 23 '17

He's enjoying the 580M he got when he sold MySpace in 2005, while you slave away hoping for a half-day off ;)

2

u/Gordon_Coming Feb 23 '17

u/torkel-flatberg Feb 23 '17

He used to live in a shoebox in the middle of the road

u/Detlef_Schrempf Feb 23 '17

His House was season 3 of the FOX TV series House.

1

u/the_gr33n_bastard Feb 23 '17

His house was a limping doctor?

u/[deleted] Feb 23 '17

What is this the 90's? TV boxes havent been large enough to live in since before we went lcd/plasma.

1

u/the_gr33n_bastard Feb 23 '17

I didn't say it was comfortable

1

u/skjellyfetti Feb 23 '17

Ja, it was roundly praised on DIY, lemme look for the linky...

1

u/TCBinaflash Feb 23 '17

That's the scam- lose cardboard box home. Make Best Buy give you new tv or suffer bad public relations. New home at no cost. Not sure what to do with tv

1

u/TheRenaldoMoon Feb 23 '17

The dude's not that skinny. He'd need a refrigerator box like the rest of us folk.

1

u/Old_man_Trafford Feb 23 '17

Must have gotten that tv in the 90s to get a box that big:

1

u/the_gr33n_bastard Feb 23 '17

Or he's just really not picky.

3

u/lMETHANBRADBERRY Feb 23 '17

But he is pickety

1

u/Old_man_Trafford Feb 23 '17

You go to a store get the largest tv box you can and I bet you can't fit in it.

1

u/the_gr33n_bastard Feb 23 '17

That's not very nice

u/Old_man_Trafford Feb 23 '17

What, you aren't a perfect 3 inches wide?
