Winning. Winning so hard

You have created a paradox in your home that very well pull everything on the outside of your basement inside. You must do something to stop this or we're all doomed.

I've petted my cat.

My theory is this will solve the problem.

Even if it doesn't - I got to pet my cat! There is no downside!

IT'S SCIENCE!

Quick, add bacon.
Bacon is always the answer.
Bacon an cats...

...And extra cheese

on a sesame seed bun

alternatively poppy seed

With a stick of dynamite

that was starting to sound like a great breckfest sandwhic

mint

haha this gave me a good laugh XD i needed that

i just get the weirdest imagery about keeping one's loved ones in the basement...

Don't be fooled. It's the biggest room in the house. She's got a pretty sweet bachelorette pad going on down there.

A momcave?

Grandma called it that, it was adorable.

^.^

What if I don't have a basement?

Woah man.

Woah.

That's some pretty deep philosophical shit bro, real deep.

I've never seen a basement in my life much less lived in one, but I rarely mention it. Stereotypes this humorous must be protected

Do you have stairs in your house?

I am protected!

nope, just a 10x10 cabin :D

you make your mother live in your basement?

The basement is finished and also has a bathroom. The former residents used it as an entertainment room so it even has surround sound hook ups should she ever want to watch Animal Planet SUPER INTENSELY!

> 3>;;

She had the option of the upstairs spare bedroom but this really was the sweeter deal.

keeping ma eye on ya boi~ > |C


lulz j/k < |D

:I YOUR LOGIC IS INFALLIBLE. I bow to your wisdom!

You win everything. forever.

I don't live in my mom's basement.

This house doesn't have a basement. :D

Did I tell you I love you today?

Keep up the good work.

In some cultures the children don't leave their parents' home until they're married and even still sometimes they stay just to keep the family together. This seems to be popular everywhere except "english" speaking nations.

It does mean your mum is a huge loser

comfort her :'(

I live on the top floor of my parents' house. Not the attic but above their room.

y... you've done it....

To dream the impossible dreaaaaaam!

ilur brain, Pie. XD

In my parent's house/my childhood home, we only had a dirt-floored crawl space that was low enough that you had to literally crawl to move around in (but hey, it was better than getting sucked up into a tornado). The entrance to it was through a trap door in the floor of my closet.

I don't wanna live there! D: Ironically, I do live in a garden apartment 150 miles away from my parents. So.....half loser?

A Paradigm Shift has taken place. Tri-Disaster is now the default setting instead of Cerberus. (Please catch the reference... *Crosses fingers*)

Final Fantasy reference?

+1 Cookie.

That's a couple Final Fantasy references if I'm right. Tri-Disaster and Cerberus go to Dirge of Cerberus, and Paradigm Shift goes to Final Fantasy 13.

Am I right.

They were actually both XIII references. Cerberus is the All-Commando Paradigm, while Tri-Disaster is all Ravagers. :)

Frankly I'd kill for a basement for living quarters. >____>

Ultimate basement home: http://www.missilebases.com/

I built a second floor on my house, that's basicly just my room now.
=P I live with my mother and I'm quite proud of it XD

I still live with my folks, sadly, due to the economy and the job I managed to get being so long on the pay grade.

Yup. Before I bought my home this year I spent a few years living with mine.

It's just the way things are. Glad you're financially stable as to own a house.

I think FA has broken my brain. For some reason I read the last two words as "Gay Parade".
Double take confirmed "pay grade".

same here...

Basements are the best room of the house because they always stay nice and cool.

I'm buying my brothers house and making him move into the basement now...

=^.^=

It's just because basements are awesome and everyone is jealous.

This.

This made me laugh but there must be proof. You have ruined the natural ORDER!

I've never even seen a basement. ):

I don't even have a basement

I don't get to play this game :c

I made this comment too late

where did all the other comments come from????

Basements.

ZING!

(mulls things over, decides that keeping one's mother's cremated remains on the mantelpiece of her old house doesn't really count, drops the subject)

Awww.

Uh. I knew someone who kept their relative's ashes in the bathroom. It was a little unsettling for me as a kid when I needed to use the facilities.

I can imagine that being a tad unnerving, yes. ;^.^

A chum of mine from the old alt.tasteless newsgroup willed me a small vial of his ashes with the proviso that I use it for ballast on the tracks when building a train layout. Haven't quite worked up the nerve to do that just yet.

"I washed my hands with the soap powder in the cute little vase, I hope that's OK"

It's okay, I would probably find it unsettling even as an adult.

Badazz

I've seen some pretty sweet finished basements. As a child, I had a friend who basically had a second house down there!

Yes. Yes you are.

Well time to go home everyone, we no longer have anything to work towards, the ultimate achievement of humanity is upon us.

Dat single tear.

the fucking teardrop oh my god

pie

PIE

you do the best expressions and the angles and just I LOVE YOUR STUFF

What does living in a shack in the backyard count as, would that make me average?

That depends.

Is it "Tiiiiiiin roof.... rusted!"?

I had to look that up

And my mom moved out... I'm still living at home, but not with my parents. Strange world D:

what does that make me I live with my grandmother until I can find a apartment near work. That makes me a super Loser right? Which gives me super powers to repel any women... Reminds me of Johnnie Bravo.

YOU WIN!

But at what cost???

At the cost of dividing by zero

By contrast our hundred an' twelve yr old house
means got a stone hole in the ground with cracked
windows and large visible and ugly support beams
that look cobbled together from random large wood
scraps and other unidentifiable things and is so stuffed
with boxes that its hard to walk so kind of mitigates
the creepy factor and ill keep typing to make this even

The tear in the close-up is what really makes this image for me.
'Dat tear.

All according to plan

Lucky! I wish I could find a house with a basement. I'd totally make it my Nyancave in a second. Or maybe make it into a playroom for my kids.

I don't understand the perpetuation of that cliche anymore though, most people have to live with their parents or their parents live with theme simply for the financial assistance it would bring. I guess it still kind of clings on from when you lived with your parents not out of necessity but laziness.

That used to be the deal, but lately It's not seen like that anymore. A lot of "successful" people have ended up living with their folks again over the past decade.

Yes Pie that's totally how it works. Your logic is sound.

I think it does!

I love you.

Jokes on them, I've never seen a basement irl in my entire life

i can't defend this at all but i read "huge weiner"

perhaps enough furaffinity for today

I don't live in my mother's basement.

I live in my mother's spare room, at ground level, if you please.

Well living with your parents (after the age of say...25) really defeats the purpose of what you're suppose to do. At a certain age, you're suppose to leave your parents house so as to be independent so you could either

- achieve the dream you once dream in terms of career
- Make your own income
- find a love one and maybe start a family.

Living with your parents, even within the ages of 30s and 40s defeats the purpose, especially if you rely on your parents all too often. Afterall, if you can't even take care of yourself, how would you be able to take care of your love one, your kids, or...well anything? (of course, if you're staying with parents because you're helping to take care of THEM, then it's understandable).

This is most likely why people see those that live with their parents as 'huge losers.'

Like a Boss!

In this economy it makes very little sense to NOT live with multiple adults who can all bring some kind of funds in. Why do we try so hard to pressure each other into possible poverty over this weird pride issue x.x

getting free home and free food is not how you lose the game.

I'd say...depends on if you're in a sitcom or not.

I live in a draw

Your sense of humor is amazing c:

I was like that at some point...but my mom was living in the basement fresh after my parents divorced and was looking for a new house...

Logically sound,

Take it and love it :3

So what does that make someone who lives in the converted front porch of her father's house?

Or is that cheating?

Technically I life upstairs, but I spend most of my time in the basement. So where does that put me?

I adore how so many people must not have read the description. Then again it acts up on my phone when I used to try to get to here from there.

But, alas, your cat owns the house :| not you.

She sure thinks she does anyway.

I have a friend who's parents live with him. He's got no girlfriend or anything, he owns the house, etc... Turns out, it can be a culture thing, and they're just close. Sometimes it's monetary, othertimes its intentional. MInd you... most would love to have their own place.. Can't do dirty things when the 'rents are about.

I hope it's a nice basement.

x'3 nope it makes your parents losers, o.o oh... <w< umm... ouch. D: I didn't mean it.

I think it depends entirely on the motivation of the person, tbph

By that definition the Waltons were total losers!

Winning like Charlie Sheen!

Somewhere in the world, Raptor Jesus just spat his coffee all over his laptop.

We all have, Pie.
