An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

Also, this cat is absolutely destroying my thigh by making biscuits on it. But I'm really strong and loving, and I never have insane reactions to mild situations regardless of the state of the chemical balance in my brain or any external factors, nor do I lie or speak facetiously and with hyperbole.

For I am a dull man.

Sorry, sometimes I start writing and then I black out for a while and just say stuff.

I've got the bookshelf version of that console cabinet. Sauder brand, right. I recognize the bevel and construction. Mine also bows on every shelf and on top. Frickin MDF wood...I feel your pain. Sweet table though-- could probably be stripped and varnished dark into something fancy. Check out those curved table legs and carved feet.

I'll be honest with ya, I bought the console at Walmart about a decade ago and don't remember anything about the branding, but you're correct on every other aspect, lmao. I've put it through some shit, though.

And thanks on the table :-). I really should do something with it, as it will be passed down to my son. Along with the TV stand 🤣
