Trying to frame his slobbishness as “minimalism”. Prioritizing a games console and immature Naruto poster over bed sheets. Fleshlight just left out on the floor. Boasting about his apartment when there’s less than nothing there.
The lack of bedsheets really gets to me, more than anything else. I’m okay with minimalism, but sleeping on the same fabric all the time without being able to clean it… not great.
You did notice more detail than I did. My critique was just based on:
Mattress on the floor (not bad in any way).
TV and game console, if that’s important to you. (I don’t have either, but I don’t hate).
Mattresses on the floor go mouldy underneath. The main point of a bed frame is air flow, the secondary point of them is to make you not look like a slob.
It’s lack of care. It’s fine if you don’t actually care about the place you sleep and shower, but you better be putting that care into something else to compensate. People who live like this and are also healthy are typically people who are dedicated to activities outside of their home and spend every waking moment rock climbing or working at their passion job.
Otherwise, it’s not even just about impressing a guest or girl, it’s about nurturing your living space. Even if you’re doing minimalism, you have to do it with pride and joy. You can decorate without clutter and focus on the essentials for comfort and it will make you feel happier and proud of your environment.
The comic here is pointing out and making fun of how many guys are so deeply unserious about anything that they can’t even invest enough care into buying a proper table and chair. Being a man sometimes means you grow up surrounded by people who tease you for liking things, you learn to be cynical or sarcastic about literally everything as a result, and this doesn’t just make you bad at picking out a proper bedframe and nightstand, it also means you’re not going to invest serious feelings into anything and that’s why it’s considered a red-flag.
Other than “m’lady,” I fail to see a problem…

Little did you know, he have ten mattresses in a second room, that cycles regularly and are steam cleaned. Maybe.
Spent the entire budget on that.
Silly human, I clearly see more than nothing!

I did not look closely enough to see the cringe.

Depends on the flooring. Never had a mattress go mouldy on wooden floors.
