It's telling that you wouldn't criticize this if it was the same size piece for my living room, despite the fact I use my closet 100x more than my media center. What you're saying is that you only purchase nice things when it's visible. I purchase quality things because I like quality things. |

I'm retarded and realize I'm not replacing drywall or rewiring the house or anything else major, but I'm not hiring dudes for most things, just floor and countertops, where it would not have nearly been worth the risk and labor (old shitty subfloor was glued on).
