Just bought a house in Pleasant Ridge. Should I go with contemporary or traditional furniture. I'm not married so I'm going to be doing this on my own.

Hermy 01-02-2010, 09:27 PM Most likely traditional from the houses I know there. You buy near Roosevelt elem? MikeMyers 01-02-2010, 09:30 PM http://cityofpleasantridge.org/ House is 80 year old colonial. Tree lined streets. City is part of some national historic district. All homes are minimum 60 years old. The neighborhood says traditional but I was looking at furniture here http://www.brightideasfurniture.com/ and it interests me more than pottery barn. Went to Art Van and that place was terrible. I think everything was made out of formica. MikeMyers 01-02-2010, 09:40 PM Its about 12 houses east of woodward near the Comerica Bank. West of Woodward is way out of my price range. Glenn 01-02-2010, 09:41 PM Lots of particle board at Art Van, or "sawdust & stickers" I likes to call it. DennyMcLain 01-02-2010, 11:23 PM Furniture is overrated. But if you must, rich mahogany. DennyMcLain 01-02-2010, 11:28 PM Fuck you Nichol, you asshat!!!! Whoops. Wrong topic. Pharaoh 01-02-2010, 11:29 PM Buy some fucking bean bags, some beds and there's your furniture. You either need something to sit on or sleep on and since you're single you should be able to fuck on every piece of furniture you own. And FIY: A tiny coffee table is not a good idea because while fine for sitting on 1) it's too small to lay on 2) it's be uncomfortable to lay on 3) it will not support the weight of 2 human beings fucking, even in a seated position.

That's super advice. Uncle Mxy 01-03-2010, 08:57 AM I suggest used furniture over new. In Pharaoh terms, this would be pre-fucked over furniture. MoTown 01-03-2010, 09:50 AM Anyone see the Gardner White deals they've been advertising? - 10 piece living room set (couches, tables, etc) - Free 42" 1080 HDTV - Free PS3 - 10 large pizzas from Jets - $1799 I love the fact they threw in the Jets pizza. I wish I was in that meeting where the executives decided to add that to the deal. MikeMyers 01-03-2010, 09:57 AM Its a great gimmick with the plasma, ps3, and the pizzas. The furniture set is likely $800 cheaper and then they throw a cheap 720p plasma and a PS3 and jack up the price and act like you got it for free. I already have old furniture but since this house is actually kind of nice I want to get nice furniture with it too. MoTown 01-03-2010, 10:02 AM 10 LARGE PIZZAS Where you at, MikeMyers? DennyMcLain 01-03-2010, 10:28 AM All that is necessary... http://www.gearfuse.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/surf-chair.jpg DennyMcLain 01-03-2010, 10:31 AM Also... http://www.entertainmentearth.com/images/%5CAUTOIMAGES%5CNC40080lg.jpg |
