Visual: Slackerdom Central!
Wednesday, June 29, 2005Welcome to Slackerdom Central. This is the home base of all Slacker operations. Hidden in the roof of a non-assuming building in a historic neighborood of St. Paul.
You can see the original no furnished pictures here.
Shall we begin the tour complete with furnishings?
I'll skip the entryway since that isn't any different.
(click images for full size)
Great Room
Here's the view from the top of the stairs looking into the main great room area. much slacking is done of that futon.
Here's the view from the dining area. the Slackerdom reading facility is that papazan. The Pub entrance is to the right of it.
Here's the view from the Slackerdom Reading Facility. The SD Dining Facility and Wine Stock is in the background.
Closer view of said Dining Facility and secondary wine stock.
"Marvin's Pub"
Here is "Marvin's Pub" a full service bar completely stock with 20 different kinds of liquor and at least 3 kinds of beer. Right now there is only the dart board on the right, I'm working on foosball or dome hockey.
Here's the view fom behind the bar. Now you see why it's Marvin's Pub.
Access to the rest of Slackerdom. Dormitory on the left, Kitchen and Head in the middle, Technology Center on the right.
Dormitory
Here is the Slackerdom Dormitory. This is HQ of the most extreme instances of slacking.
The HQ entertainment area comlete with a Green Orgasm (aka Giggling Flubber).
HQ entrance and secondary clothing storage unit.
Technology Center
Here is the Slackerdom Technology Center complete with wirelss network that is typically used from the recliner 6 feet away.
Said recliner with laptop and the Slackerdom Library.
Now the final two areas have been redone since previously toured. I'll include links to the before shots.
Kitchen
In true slacker style, this isn't used as much as it should be. Well, everything besdies the pizza oven anyway.

You have a really great condo! I love it.
I have to admit something...when I saw the first picture of your futon I thought the "M" logo was actually some kind of packing tape holding the thing together. LOL...sorry! I was going to offer a new slip cover. ;)
Cool kitchen color...cool office...and I love Marvin the Martian. :) - At 2:45 PM, Becki said...

Your house looks like a fort. I covet your windows. I could off enemies for days with those.

Marie - It's a gold M on maroon for the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers... just kind of crinkled up in the fold though.
The color was inspired by the reds in the tiles. Na dyou can thank Mama Slacker for all the Marvin stuff ;O)
Aurora - Yeah, it's fun! The realtor selling the place had it described as "Doggie TV" windows. - At 3:02 PM, Becki said...

Your place is voted official "Hideout when the looting starts" location. Minion of Doom will be the guard dog. She inflicts mortal wounds upon Becki all the time.

Very cool pad, Slacker. I love the tile backsplash in the kitchen.
P.S. Minion is vicious. Watch out for her. - At 1:12 AM, Jezzy said...

Ooh! Wish I could have a personal tour! Mebbe you can pay for the airfare. Hmm. Looks great, anyway. x

Aurora - I'll make sure to install the death ray turret and the tar cauldrons asap! I need a minion of Slackerdoom!
Becki - Thanks! I saw the tile and loved it so I HAD to put it up.
Jezzy - The Slacker Budget only can afford the room and board... no airfare yet! :O( - At 11:44 AM, jlybn123 said...

You have NO idea how jealous those pictures made me. We have three girls living in a three bedroom that is probably a quarter of the size of your place. And I only live in Brooklyn!
GREAT looking place! - At 12:37 PM, Chief Slacker said...

Amy - It was tehre when I moved in... eventually that and the faucet are getting replaced. You can come over anytime! And I wish there were 48 interested in coming over, much less 483,294!!
Jlybn - Thanks! the Great room was that way when I bought it, the kitchen and batch are the ones I redid.
FINY - This basically is a three bedroom, I wouldn't mind a roomate if I had someone I could live with. I bought it so that if I do, by some miracle, get hitched we have room to grow. And if you're all single, can I visit? :O) - At 10:56 AM, Leesa said...

Hey I recognized furniture from Ikea in your Great Room. Cool look. That must be pretty nice you live in a big city and have acess to REAL stores.

I definitely like it. Ikea has decent furniture at a real nice price! You'lljust have to road trip to Phoenix ;O) They have a big one there.
