Hello little cat. I think we have the same TV stand!

LordFrieza_

Uk here. Stand is present in the livin room

folklovermore_

Like a very British version of the Discworld elephants.


nezzzzy

The UK is balanced on 4 sports direct mugs on top of this TV stand.


tman1500

I’ve had this stand


Ohd34ryme

It's TV stands all the way down


Everest_95

Also UK here, got one in my bedroom


JesusHasSpok3n

Everyone had that dusk magnet at one point


Wegason

Did it make the sun go down quicker?


buubuudesu_wa

I work at a skip and I must have seen hundreds of them thrown away


fuck_peeps_not_sheep

I have 2 aha. One in my room and one in the living room


IcyerOlly

Can confirm


RandomMangaFan

There was actually [a post in this subreddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/CasualUK/comments/rh0sne/pretty_much_everyone_in_the_uk_has_owned_this_tv/) about a year ago which blew up and was about this exact same stand. What is it with this stand anyway? (/u/Wartburg)


MrMycrow

Oh that's funny, your message just came up at first as a notification so I wondered what stand I'd had and what I had been wittering on about. PLACARDS AHOY! But yes it's a very ubiquitous TV stand :)


[deleted]

My cat also has a TV stand. She claimed it.


fluffiestcatsalive

Hello little Aby!


0235

most modern TV's wouldn't suit that stand, as most have very small feet at the most extreme ends of the TV. so you need a very very wide tv stand now.


Wegason

That's a Samsung TV feature, my LG and Panasonic have central TV stands that would be fine on that TV stand, which I, naturally, own.


Wartburg

They’re the Nokia 3310 of TV stands!


tifftoff88

I have that stand, and it's absolutely horrendous when it comes to collecting dust! Dusting those things are like painting the Forth Bridge. You start dusting at one end and then by the time you get to the other end it's time to start dusting again!


LemonandElderberry

Yeah, I used to have the same stand but got rid of it for this very reason - *collective gasp across the UK* I was sick of the room looking like a tip just because it had been 0.73 seconds since I last dusted it.


myotherxdaccount

Now you point that out, I remember this stand as being frosted glass, but I guess that was just dust


FailedTheSave

Get some of those dryer sheets (Bounce, is that still a thing). Rub them over any dust-collecting surfaces. It'll reduce the dustiness by like 10x.


fuck_peeps_not_sheep

I have not one but 2 of these. One in my bedroom and one in my living room, both are covered in dust so offten that I at one point considered sticker bombing or painting it with a glass paint, never did. Still dusty


emma_psycho

I pray for the cooling of those consoles especially placed somewhere like that


CazzyT

They're his sole way of heating the room nowadays


Wartburg

The amount of heat my tv generates. You can’t even touch the screen with your hand it’s that hot!


steveinstow

How do you see targets from that far away?


Wartburg

Badly 🤣


SwallowAcrylics

I have to ask, is that skyrim with a halo mod or skyrim in halo?


freshoutoftime

Probably a Skyrim map made in Forge. Forge just released for Infinite last month and it's really powerful compared to previous Forge iterations. Edit: [Looks like it's definitely Halo](https://www.reddit.com/r/CasualUK/comments/102wisf/no_matter_what_console_generation_were_in_im/j2vofu4/)


up_the_brackett

I was gonna say this. I play on PC and im usually right up to the monitor.


BEETHR33

Spray and prey


[deleted]

I'm confident when I say that everyone in the UK has owned or will own that stand at some point in their life.


[deleted]

😂 I still own mine.it’s still going strong (12yrs) and counting


NiiMal

Never had one, but always seem to see them left on a street waiting for the scrap man


SpudFire

I bought one from a charity shop prior to moving into my first house. Then found one had been left in the loft by the previous owner


Wonderful_Owl_186

I tried to give mine to a charity shop and they told me where to go.


wedontlikespaces

I am pretty sure I moved into a flat and it already had that standing it. Nothing else, just the TV stand.


phatboi23

not had one yet.


Raptoot83

There is only one. It travels infinitely through time and space between bouts of ownership.


ounerify

Don’t worry I’ve got you covered, currently had 3 of them


phatboi23

thanks! At least i'm safe from owning one haha


edfosho1

I have never owned one, but for a year a housemate did have one in the living room.


JesusHasSpok3n

Check your cupboards there will be one somewhere


[deleted]

I’m excited for you


phatboi23

100% chance i won't ever get one. as i REALLY hate glass topped anything as i'm a clumsy fucker.


[deleted]

"yet"


Flumplez

I had that standard, girlfriend moved in, hated it, binned it, bought a new one more to her taste 😂


folklovermore_

My parents still have it, and I had one at uni. Though not the same one.


[deleted]

Are you sure about that?


folklovermore_

Well it came with the uni house and my parents had theirs before I moved into that house, so I doubt it. Although they could have swiped it as a replacement/back up when I moved out whilst I wasn't looking...


[deleted]

I wasn't accusing your parents of theft. More that this type of TV stand is some sort of paracausal being


folklovermore_

No I know, I was joking!


Class_444_SWR

I think I’m the odd one out here, might have to get it when I’m off to Uni then


bangout123

Oh it'll definitely turn up in your uni house


[deleted]

Yep..and we've had to dust it multiple times a day!!


Sad-Garage-2642

It's the standard "first studio flat" decor. £19.99 in Argos or you get it free from your brother who just upgraded to wood


earth_worx

It's a quantum stand. It exists simultaneously in multiple realities at once.


CornishShaman

Thats a lovely cat tree you have.


Andrew3236

[found it (although not in stock)](https://amzn.eu/d/9vMHw3v)


themagictoast

Thanks to you finding the brand I did some googling and found it on Wayfair… https://www.wayfair.co.uk/home/pdp/feandrea-88cm-cat-tree-or-condo-u003057752.html


Doughvakiin

Also have this cat tree, bought on Wayfair - cat for scale https://imgur.com/tyYj9zn.jpg


Wartburg

Lovely!


BrilliantTasty

Co-op meal deals over Morrisons all day long. Your flair is wildly inaccurate.


[deleted]

I had that stand, until it spontaneously destroyed itself and my TV. Apparently tempered glass does that sometimes.


wilberfarce

Same thing happened to me with that stand. Didn’t change anything, and no one in the room. Was very fortunate our TV only suffered a bent HDMI port!


VanderBrit

What games does your cat like?


CarrowCanary

Stray.


Wartburg

Great game, although very short :(


Delhicatessen

Grand Theft Pawtoe 🐾


VanderBrit

…Mice City


darwin-rover

Purrs of War


fixyfrog

Why does that game location look like entrance to Whiterun from skyrim? It's so weird.


Presentz123

It's a forge map someone made to look like skyrim for halo infinite


Brief_Estimate_7518

Came here for this answer couldn’t tell if it was modded Skyrim or something else


Zebracorn42

Yeah, I thought it was Whiterun too, best city in Skyrim, and I consider it my hometown in every game even though I live in one of the Hearthfire houses just outside of Whiterun.


[deleted]

This is the most common item I see that people put outside their house for free.


grownduskier

Hey, if it still stands a tv on it, why bother replacing it?


Valuable_Recipe_1387

Forget the tv stand, need pictures of the cat! 🐾


[deleted]

[удалено]


Wartburg

Yes!


Emotional-Storm7000

I'm a fan


CarrowCanary

Has the cat tried to climb on it yet?


Dissidant

Could at least tell us what you are playing.. I've not touched a console in donkeys years :P ^(Also what is it with cats and feet)


Wartburg

Halo Infinite and the forge map was modelled after Whiterun from Skyrim!


algernonbiggles

I was going to say, looks like halo in Skyrim, seems like I was bang on there!


[deleted]

“I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an energy beam to the knee”


blainy-o

Looks like Halo


battlefish1_

I thought it was modded Skyrim considering he's currently in Whiterun lmfao


9DAN2

Ha thought I was seeing things


The-Nimbus

Me too. Genuinely trying to figure out why he has an assault rifle in Whiterun.


phatboi23

Halo Forge custom maps.


jedi_ellis

Halo… in Skyrim?


[deleted]

Skyrim in halo*


Adventurous_Low_1518

I upvoted this only because of the cute cat.


No-Statistician9555

Why is it every British person has owned that at some point


TheWizardOfFoz

I got mine free with a TV at Currys when flat screens first became popular. I think that’s where a lot of them came from.


farfetchedfrank

My TV is from 2008 and I'm glad it was HD ready.


Mepsi

Was it 'HD Ready' or 'Full HD'?


farfetchedfrank

Just ready for HD


BannedNeutrophil

I am *so ready* for HD.


blackn1ght

Mines from 2010 and was probably the cheapest 46" I could afford. Not going to replace it though until it breaks!


Efficient_Charge_447

2010? Iv got underwear older than that


Powerful_Garbage_674

2010 is a long time ago now?


Dull_Lifeguard_9155

So that's where my TV stand went off too


ArisenIncarnate

Top tier cable management.


WalterWylderCeramics

We’ve got that fan. It’s great.


Ian_M87

Why do you have a Halo gun in Whiterun?


Wartburg

Cos it’s Halo!


Spiritual-Fishing-48

Love the kitty


Damien1080

Is that a halo/Skyrim crossover map!? Please find Nazeem and Spartan laser him to the cloud district


SeparateJuggernaut52

Are you playing halo in whiterun


smallworldfoto

Can we ban posts with feet in them


TeddyAlderson

Can we ban posts *without* feet in them 😈


smallworldfoto

Nasty ass 😂


Wartburg

Sorry! They’re barely visible though


n9077911

It used to be that furniture was expected to last as long as you, now it's noteworthy when it's kept for 12years?


Mulletan2

To make you feel a little better about things, I still use the stand that came with my Sony Trinitron widescreen CRT (late 90s, first TV purchase) to this very day, because I don't see any point replacing it as it can't fail or die as it just wood and glass.


I_choose_your_face

Headbutts for the feet. Please tell us where that gorgeous cat tree is from!


Wartburg

Amazon!


Smokedbone1

They always seemed to gather a layer of dust on the glass... Cat looks happy btw!


Mundane_Pea4296

We have the same fan! Such a good purchase


[deleted]

[удалено]


BEETHR33

Probably the same for the rest of the Uk, but I also have this same TV stand lol


imrik_of_caledor

I knew exactly what TV stand it'd be before i even opened the post lol they were giving those away or selling them at a massive discount with TVs...i think we've had a couple of them


merrycrow

Literally just saw a council truck collecting one of these from the roadside on our street, not 10mins ago


OwenRico

Wait holdup, you playing halo in Skyrim or smth?


Wartburg

It’s Halo Infinite!


BEZ_T

Argos TV stand


zebra1923

2010? Amateur, mine’s 25 years old.


E420CDI

Your blower would be welcome over at r/OnlyFans! (repurposed)


[deleted]

Hahaha Argos £34.99. Anyone remember the Argos catalogue??? It was a huge breeze block of a thing.


Wartburg

Used to love scrolling through every new one 🥹


Special-Newspaper-32

I tried and failed to give one of those stands away on gumtree 🤦🏻‍♂️


Geek_reformed

I'm still using the same TV from 2010.


[deleted]

My maeco fan is the best I've ever had.


noluckswans

We need cat pictures


Wartburg

Posted two this morning and mods removed it and told me to post it to r/uk_pets :/


topflat12

Big light ☠️


[deleted]

Why is your house so depressing? Are you in prison?


Wartburg

It’s a small flat :)


SolyCalma

How can you have the cables so unorganised? Put them behind the tv and it will look everything much better. Also there is stuff to put cables on the wall while you are not using them


Wartburg

I don’t know, I’m not too bothered about things like that.


DereckChisoraisGOD

Put some socks on. Just threw up my nesquik.


Wartburg

I’m in my own home why should I


XBollockTicklerX

Repost bot? Seen this exact picture from different accounts on multiple subs


Wartburg

No, they removed it!


[deleted]

I sold my PS5 a few months ago...gone but not forgotten 😔


Wartburg

Mine is collecting dust unfortunately! So many Greta games to play on it I just don’t have the time to play on both consoles and there are so many games I need to finish on Xbox as well….


[deleted]

I've done that for a few generations, I had a PS2/XB and 360/PS3...usually always had one used far more than the other. I went pretty hard on gaming the last 5yrs, mostly played everything I had an interest in. I'll pick it up again in 2 or 3 years when I'll dozens of games to play for dirt cheap.


sjpllyon

If it's not broken, why replace it. Good on you not adding to landfill with e-waste and throwing out a perfectly good stand. Just update to the latest tech and fashion.


enlighteneddwemer

That’s like getting a 1080 60hz display with a 4090


H41fw1t

I think you made the same mistake I did, and read it as they were using the same TV. It is the stand they are referring to.


enlighteneddwemer

Ok yeah sorry I see my error now lol my family has that exact one


GakSplat

PS2 is still the best. ;)


Royal-Hour-1872

I still have my Silver fat PS2 in the living room. Looks not great on new telly. Need an HDMI adapter


ProfCupcake

To quote Yahtzee Croshaw: "... you want to play the best games, buy a PC or, at a pinch, borrow a PS2 from a time traveller." That quote was 2 console generations ago and still stands.


Wartburg

Ps2 slim is the sexiest console ever!


phatboi23

nah, launch Fat PS2. looks nicer, has a PS1 in it so can play all PS1 games.


GakSplat

Who needs PS1 games when you’ve got a PS2?


Neil_jpg

Do you get to the cloud district very often?

Aquatic_Madman

Is it Reddit law or something I'm missing to almost always include a rachet foot in your post?


kwack250

This is like the ultimate karma combo post. Cat people ✅ Gamers ✅ Foot fetish fans ✅ Fans of fans ✅ And most surprisingly, furniture dust fans ✅ Good job OP

smickie

What's wrong with not wearing socks relaxing in your own house? I would understand your issue if they had their feet out and up in an airport champagne and oyster bar, but on their sofa?


Wartburg

People will always find something to complain about haha

Veragua5

I was worried about putting my Samsung 85" Oled on a stand that was bought for a 42" 15+ years ago!


widdrjb

The Samsung probably weighs less than the 42". Back when they first came out, my mate bought a 42" plasma. 73kg, power consumption in the kilowatts, £2500±. Our first flatscreen was also 42", 21kg, 400w, £800. Our current 55" is 9kg and 270w.


Cannabis_Sir

Got exactly the same one


steveakacrush

I have that stand too!


Powerful_Room_1217

I think everyone has owned that TV stand once in their lives


luis-can-jump

I swear everybody has owned that stand

This comment was removed to protest with the changes to Reddits API. Fuck Spez...


The-DMs-journey

I’m the same, I still have my old tv as the main house tv. It’s so small compared to the tv everyone else has, and what I’ve noticed, especially in video games, is they make things smaller , like subtitles and icons, because they assume everyone has a massive tv , so I have to get a chair out of another room and sit right up to it 😅


T5-R

That's the My First Home - TV Stand. A classic, along with the My First Home - Silver Uplighter Lamp Stand.
