I am a man, and I see many problems with this:

  • the TV is at least two sizes too small
  • WAF is a non-factor, so there would absolutely be some oversized speakers beside that tv
  • my ass isn’t lying on the floor, when a couch would be far more comfortable
  • the couch would make floor pizza too far away, so there would be a “coffee table”

A couch? A coffee table? OK, King Louis XIV. The rest of us will make do with a floor gaming chair.

I’m not sure you realize how much heavy lifting I’m making the quotations around “coffee table” do.

Two cinder blocks and a rough sawn plank.

That’ll do.

I too create my own furniture out of mostly-empty pizza boxes

(kinda-related story time: I used to live in an apartment with 4 other gay furries [the sitcom writes itself] and we very often ordered in from dominos. Like so much so our delivery guy seemed to take a genuine interest in how we are doing. But after I spent a day making the kitchen spotless, and the next day it looked as awful as before I touched it, I stopped giving a shit. Of many factors, it was silently decided that the one taking out the trash was the one who lost the game of jenga with the garbage. So skill and precision were needed whenever you were adding to the stack that was as high as an adult (or more), as the actual garbage bin for the apartment complex was like 500 feet away and 4 stories below us. Multiple trips were necessary, even if you bothered to use trash bags to simplify the excursion. I wish I’d have taken photos, this was a challenge where boys became men.)

NO! Never a used futon. I once got a used futon. It had stains on it. After a while, I was told what the stains were.

Just some plastic chair, table and pillows would be enough

Yes, this looks like back pain.

Clearly it is a young man’s place. A more mature man would have a second hand recliner and a bottle of alcohol to wash down the bitter taste of divorce.

The recliner would be ugly as hell (I still have a second hand one from years ago) but so comfortable that it would suck the soul out of you if you laid down in it too long.

And there’s bourbon in the chocolate milk.

Yeah, this is more like what would be acceptable 20 years ago.
