We stan a meme that calls for standards.

Last week, Twitter user Kat Hasty posted a picture of a depressing living room, bare except for a single reclining armchair and a TV. There's no art on the walls, no surfaces other than the kitchen counter, and no lamps other than a harsh overhead light. It's ... sad.

"Guys really live in apartments like this and don't see any issue," she said.

Seriously, at least put up decor that isn't empty liquor bottles and Fight Club posters!
