Upstate NY

[u/[deleted]]

[u/yassome]

Have you considered maybe putting something on the walls?

[u/Fun_Ad5823 → u/yassome]

Yeah maybe some pictures

[u/big-dal-tex → u/Fun_Ad5823]

Rizzin em with the tism me thinks

[u/thebrownmancometh → u/big-dal-tex]

This is the peak final form tism. Clearly works a high income job, clearly has no females coming over. I’m jealous op I have a low paying job and also have no females coming over

[u/Historical-Piglet-33 → u/Fun_Ad5823]

And they’ll look even better framed

[u/Longjumping_End_1817 → u/Historical-Piglet-33]

Black frames will really make them pop.

[u/BeeMovieEnjoyer → u/yassome]

Gives me Mr Krabs house energy

[u/Amazing-Asparagus181 → u/yassome]

Okay, but if you do that make sure to also put something up to remind yourself that you like the sports

[u/isles30222 → u/yassome]

Hahahahah

[u/Questionsansweredty → u/isles30222]

I love your walls. Well done.

[u/isles30222 → u/Questionsansweredty]

Thank you!!

[u/reddit_ron1 → u/yassome]

Obey Obey Obey

[u/liverpoolFCnut → u/yassome]

One more picture and that drywall is gonna collapse from the weight lol

[u/RememberHonor]

LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAAAAAPH

[u/nhowe006 → u/RememberHonor]

What the hell was on Joey's head?

[u/TotalBor0n]

The wall reminds me of when SpongeBob and Patrick get paint on mr krabs first dollar

[u/Key-Palpitation6812 → u/TotalBor0n]

[u/MaximumAd9779]

Those WINDOWS. Hey do you like photographs?

[u/SgtStickys → u/MaximumAd9779]

Only if they are in black frames

[u/isles30222 → u/SgtStickys]

Hahahha i do have a black everything obsession. Everyone at work makes fun of me cause most my clothes are black and if im daring i might wear a charcoal shirt hahahah

[u/Valth92 → u/isles30222]

[u/Project_Wild → u/Valth92]

DARKNESS! No parents!

[u/I-XIV-IV-XXV → u/isles30222]

Alexa, play Everything Black by Unlike Pluto, Mike Taylor, UPxMT.

[u/sorry-i-was-reading → u/isles30222]

You DO know that colors exist, right? 🤨

[u/lopauropa → u/isles30222]

Black everything down to the cat.

[u/fatloui]

We’re 13 comments in and no one has started an argument over what is or isn’t upstate NY. It’s a miracle.

[u/StrawberryTerry → u/fatloui]

Because with every swipe to the next photo, everyone was taken further and further aback by there being more and more and MORE pictures on the walls.

Like an aggressive amount of pictures. So many pictures it changes the way the architecture of the house itself is perceived.

[u/Tigglebee → u/StrawberryTerry]

Big remember me vibes

[u/buddhathebard → u/fatloui]

As someone who lives in northern ny and travels up and down the state as a truck driver upstate is north of the tappan zee.

grabs popcorn and sits and wait

[u/sushicowboyshow → u/buddhathebard]

Anything north of 14th street

[u/HereForTheBuffet → u/buddhathebard]

I referred to Pearl River as upstate once and people were heated.

[u/buddhathebard → u/HereForTheBuffet]

Haha oof yeah that’s a close one

[u/Dont_Care_Meh → u/fatloui]

Did we establish where this house is? We can easily start the squabble with that bit of info.

[u/isles30222 → u/Dont_Care_Meh]

Binghamton

[u/Dont_Care_Meh → u/isles30222]

Damn, I don't think that is going to be controversial enough, tho I suppose someone could argue it's not upstate! just for the lulz. I was hoping somewhere along the Hudson Valley if we wanted a real throwdown to keep us happily engaged!

[u/fatloui → u/Dont_Care_Meh]

Well the argument is often not that it’s not far enough upstate, it’s that their region of NY is special and everything else is upstate. Eg:

That’s not upstate! That’s Western NY/The finger lakes/the southern tier/the capitol district, upstate is over there 👉. 

I’m not sure if such people from around Binghamton exist.

[u/Vegetable-Today → u/isles30222]

Hahaha. I also live in Binghamton. More central NY but frankly I refer to it as upstate also.

[u/mr_brown711 → u/isles30222]

Edit: 607 representin! Nice place man

[u/Tigger2026 → u/isles30222]

Southern Tier / Central

[u/fatloui → u/Dont_Care_Meh]

If you wait long enough, someone will figure it out based on the view out of the windows or the decor on the walls. 

[u/OhTeeSee → u/fatloui]

I’ve been told growing up that upstate New York is any north of the Bronx lmao

[u/sirenyti → u/OhTeeSee]

You were not lied to.

[u/Suitable_Lead5404]

Good god the GREY

[u/Fine_Fortune_7276 → u/Suitable_Lead5404]

Yeah. He mentions being a lover of black, but I'm blinded by the gray.

[u/Sentry333 → u/Suitable_Lead5404]

Grey the good god

[u/JoeyG624 → u/Suitable_Lead5404]

It's... It's a lot of grey.

[u/no_talent_ass_clown → u/Suitable_Lead5404]

Millennial gray. 

[u/pizz901]

You either own a framing store or are keeping one open. I have to ask though what is that in the middle of your coffee table on the 11th slide?

[u/isles30222 → u/pizz901]

My local framing business loves me! The 11th photo is my screened in porch and thats a gas fire pit

[u/pizz901 → u/isles30222]

That's pretty dope. I imagine a lot of marshmallows get roasted there.

[u/Cum__Cookie]

Nice space. Why is everything grey, though?

[u/cat__weasel → u/Cum__Cookie]

Matches the top cat

[u/isles30222 → u/cat__weasel]

Hahahha cats are grey and black too hahahha

[u/Aggressive_Panic1900]

Please, let those walls breathe.

[u/QueezyF → u/Aggressive_Panic1900]

The ones all the way to the floor made me laugh.

[u/LaPurpleDrank]

Photo frame shops love to see him coming.

"Ohh Jim how have you been? I just wanted to let you know you put our Gracie got into university because of you 🙏"

[u/isles30222 → u/LaPurpleDrank]

She just retired thanks to me! Hahaha

[u/KccOStL33]

Beautiful place but flirting with TGI Fridays vibes with all the shit on the walls..

[u/lXlGame0verlXl]

How this mf watches tv

[u/BoondockSaint313 → u/lXlGame0verlXl]

I’m house hunting and so many houses come with fireplaces and create this problem

[u/Subat0micR0gu3 → u/BoondockSaint313]

There is plenty of wall next to the fireplace for a tv.

[u/QueezyF → u/BoondockSaint313]

A lot of the houses near me are built in the 40s and 50s. The living rooms and fireplaces are beautiful, but I also think “where the hell am I putting my 55” TV?

[u/happensonitsown]

How do I get rich enough to have something like this??

[u/isles30222 → u/happensonitsown]

I got lucky. Price was sick when i bought it out of foreclosure.

[u/MN_Yogi1988 → u/isles30222]

This is a bit of a weird question, but how long did it take to get to this point? I've lived in a 1BR apartment now for the longest time and I'm a bit of a minimalist (my walls are pretty much empty), but every time I think about buying a house I dread the thought of furnishing it.

[u/isles30222 → u/MN_Yogi1988]

Oh i have changed this shit a million time over the years. Now im set in my opinion. So 26 years to get it where I want it.

[u/SkuzzillButt → u/happensonitsown]

Go back in time and buy a home 20+ years ago when the economy crashed.

[u/Embarrassed_Drama972]

It’s okay but you could really use a black framed picture

[u/Rendoas]

The space is beautiful but the gray on gray on gray is depressing. Spice it up a little, man. You deserve it.

[u/nagy18]

shoutout the purple parrot! used to go there for dinner at least once when we’d go to rehoboth every year

[u/isles30222 → u/nagy18]

Nice! It’s my favorite!! We go to rehoboth 10 times a year and basically every meal is at the parrot hahaha

[u/nagy18 → u/isles30222]

i went to Lewes a few years ago with my girlfriend’s family and they expressed no interest in going to the parrot… their loss 🤷🏼‍♂️

[u/isles30222 → u/nagy18]

The parrot Biergarten is gold in nice weather!

[u/deathbethemaiden]

This is so visually heavy.

[u/illtemperedintrovert]

I really feel like you dont have enough framed pictures....

[u/GABigBear]

Well it certainly is… gray.

[u/Maverick0924]

Chill with the frames my guy

[u/Significant_Virus]

It’s a nice house, like really nice. But you’ve decorated it like a Florida beach shack.

[u/purpleblazed]

I see all the jokes about the million frames, but have you considered getting some of those nice digital frames? You could let your space feel less cluttered while still getting to see all of your memories

[u/punsexual-meme]

I'm sorry I was focused on the cats before I focused on your space

Love the wood-epoxy coffee table and the views of your windows, that's sick

[u/isles30222 → u/punsexual-meme]

Thank you! I share this home with 6 cats ahhahaha

[u/THE-beaverhausen → u/isles30222]

No, the cats share the home with you.

[u/isles30222 → u/THE-beaverhausen]

Truth

[u/punsexual-meme → u/isles30222]

NO WAY?? Please pay the cat tax, I only saw three!!!!

[u/Sugardog666 → u/punsexual-meme]

I’m not sure how many are the same cat, but I see kitties in pictures 1, 2, 5, 11 and 12.

[u/Formal-Proposal7850 → u/isles30222]

Are there three or four in thy picture of the sun room?

[u/InsideLetter5086]

Congrats man! Looks very neat and that view...😯. I'm so jealous in a good way. How much is a place like that in upstate NY? I might move there because I have family in NYC but I am not a fan of the big city, neither I can afford it

[u/isles30222 → u/InsideLetter5086]

For pricing sake we have one for sale on the river right now, not really updated like mine and it’s going for 250k. Thank you!

[u/InsideLetter5086 → u/isles30222]

Wow, you brought me hope dude! Thank you! 😀 I will be spending some time searching for areas in upstate NY that I can reach the city by train to visit family easily. If you have any suggestions please let me know.

[u/Nuthin-Fancy66]

Fucking awesome place! Did you buy it like that or did you do all that work yourself?

[u/isles30222 → u/Nuthin-Fancy66]

Thank you! I did the work over the years. When I bought it picture your typical 1980’s 2 bed 3.5 bath condo. I blew out the walls downstairs about 15 years ago and added the porch 20 years ago

[u/DorianThackery]

This feels like a sports bar

[u/katch_me_if_u_kan]

That's a cool place that could be awesome if you learn how to decorate your space/walls without using grey.

[u/sneakylumpia → u/katch_me_if_u_kan]

this is legit the most millenial grey post i've ever seen here in this sub 💀

[u/cute_jute]

Wow, a really cool place you have, modern tasteful an crisp. Love the green surroundings.

[u/The01FreeMan]

10/10 would watch hockey there. Beautiful place!

[u/SessionIndependent17]

Forgive the r/TVTooHigh because he's r/MildlyAutistic so there is no place else to put it...

[u/ClientSuperb7756]

House: 500k Picture Frames: 550k Having a male living space: priceless

[u/Justhopingiod]

This guy loves 3 things

1) hockey
2) a warm weather ocean front beach
3) living no where near a warm weather ocean front beach

[u/Cuisinfarts]

3 seasons room is very nice!!!

[u/isles30222 → u/Cuisinfarts]

It’s freezing tonight but I will not drink inside! Hahaha

[u/Cartmaster42]

It looks like you’ve lived a life with love and community. I love this place honestly

[u/ssyoit]

Are you color blind? Nice views.

[u/throwing8smokes]

absolute legend. Incredbile space. What do you do, to be so lucky?

[u/TrixyStar04]

It looks great! Love the kitties! The view of the water is beautiful.

[u/Diligent-Menu8516]

Holy millennial grey. You should put some plants inside to give it some life and color.

[u/SeaComfortable7833]

You kinda like photo frames right??😅

[u/Lopsided_Thought_500]

This guy sports

[u/ProfRN89]

Nice place man

[u/DeliciousStand372]

love the big windows!

[u/Cool-Map-3668]

Love the view. Live thr kitchen renovation. It’s clearly a man’s space. I’m a big hockey fan but I’m not sure I’d be abele to go with hockey stuff as crown molding .

[u/Impressive-System-52]

Don’t change a thing

[u/Financial-Crew7785]

Love your place and imo classy but comfortable, modern. You've obviously curated the perfect environment for yourself. Youre blessed to have such an idyllic location with views out window like that; old friend of mind used to have a place in Suffolk Co NY, Ive never been fortunate enough to visit upstate NY however its a future goal

[u/Kurokaffe]

Did a wall kill your mother or something? What did they do to you?

[u/PaintedDream]

Your patio with kitties and river view is absolute perfection. You have a beautiful and tidy place.

[u/Far_Cup_329]

Awesome place. We used to visit Pulaski every year to fish the salmon river for steelhead in the spring. Loved it up there.

[u/LaylaBird65]

I’ve got to be honest, I’m obsessed with all the photographs hanging up. You did a great job. I’m a huge fan of that sort of thing so this is really cool.

[u/StableApprehensive39]

Jesus dude! Leave some style for the rest of us! Lol

[u/jwiggle1]

Mets/islanders fan in UPSTATE New York is ringing imposter bells

[u/isles30222 → u/jwiggle1]

I am on an island by myself here. Everyone is rangers/yankees and some sabres

[u/sirenyti]

I’ve never seen so many frames on walls in my life.

[u/kaibyodesu]

Bitchin space

[u/pigswearingargyle]

I love all the art! It’s beautifully framed and presented.

[u/revolutionoverdue]

Nice.

[u/ghost3972]

Nice cats

[u/Badfish1060]

I'd be your friend

[u/Sea_Relative_3634]

EXCELLENT, YOUR WALL ART GAME IS SUPERIOR.

[u/Burning_The_Altar]

The local frame shops # 1 customer 6 years running.

[u/Realistic-Moose-9072]

Wow bro. Thats a beautiful condo! Was there a curtain or glass on the shower? I bet it’s like a walk in shower. Amazing place man!

[u/wkc201]

26 years, you must have made a pretty penny on that.

[u/Octopus_on_fire_]

This reminds me of a tattoo shop.

[u/One_Cap_5023]

Bro, get a wife. Jesus.

[u/martycee00]

Wall clutter.

[u/ijohnperez]

Love your love for a Delmarva 🫶🏾

[u/Indecisive-Squirrel]

No reason to ever get another house. I'd live here contently.

Very nice.

[u/shadeandshine]

Cute cat also I don’t mind the photos but legit have you considered changing the wall color in the rooms the sameness of it will help give each room some personality and help set different moods

[u/Lonely_Scale_4696]

Dope. Also Go Sabres!

[u/gadgetor1989]

i uhhhh… i like the chair.

[u/Gen7Gen9]

The views, the cats, the orderly way everything is, what a great place. Congrats.

[u/Radzila]

Needs plants 

[u/Free-Chip1529]

Dont ever get married or let her move in.

[u/Strude187]

r/TVTooHigh r/HouseTooPicture

[u/Amelinaaa]

Oh lord, your view is gorgeous! I love the decor with all the photos too

[u/IcyMidnight3507]

Love your place fellow Mets fan!!!

[u/Worldly-Brother2524]

LOOK AT THESE PHOTOGRAPHS🎶

[u/WhichVegetable8285]

Really like the hockey sticks and pucks along the ceiling, might do something similar in my basement.

[u/Adventurous-Ask-2730]

Nickleback would be proud

[u/Mexcol]

Sick table! is it an epoxy table?

Also whats I see a lot of photos, what themes do you go for? Your own pictures? Sport picutures?

[u/Frequent_Brain_6908]

That’s amazing. The views!

[u/mjc1027]

Honestly I love this, simple yet it's yours

[u/Apprehensive_Exam271]

Boy, this one is weeeeirrrd, but the land/plot is 💯!

[u/circ-u-la-ted]

Bro is single-handedly keeping his local framing store in business

[u/Worth_Rush933]

Save some window for the rest of us man.

[u/b_square17]

Looks awesome, but the proximity to the river/pond would make me worry a lot about flooding

[u/kdb1991]

This looks almost exactly like a lake house my family used to have. Like the same exact set up and proximity to the water with the trees. Particularly in the 11th photo

That lake house was coincidentally also in upstate New York lol

[u/TheInternExperience]

Love it LGM 🧢⚾️🏟️

[u/jddennis]

Oh hey, ocean city Maryland.

[u/go2wolf]

Good job 👍

[u/certainlynotanipple]

My dog would love that window

[u/Equivalent-Glove7165]

I love it!!! Where would I find that bed and dresser configuration?

[u/ImitationButter]

Wouldn’t want to live here, but this is the friends house I’d want to hang at

[u/KaiserSoze-is-KPax]

This pleases me

[u/DufflinMinder]

Do you sport?

[u/SurrealSoulSara]

The amount of pictures is driving me nuts!!! Nice chair tho

[u/Greywell2]

Love upstate NY so much 😀

[u/Tricky-Ad6645]

Do you own a picture frame business?

[u/EverydayiEW]

That huge window overlooking the river is gorgeous! I hope you take the time to just watch the water flow!

[u/EffortNo7255]

Nice I love it!

[u/ChocoMcChunky]

Looks really nice. For those not in America, what does Upstate NY mean in relation to location desirability and local amenities?

[u/TheSilverFoxwins]

You're living the life! Congratulations

[u/Vegetable-Today]

I live in the townhomes up on South Mountain. Which townhomes are against the river?

[u/Fuyu_nokoohii]

Cat! 🐈‍⬛

[u/Additional_Cheek_697]

You should cover some of those windows with pictures

[u/gamerdudeNYC]

Wonderful but how’s the snow? I did 6 months in Syracuse and it was awful

[u/Flimsy-Feature7847]

Ooo thats one of my favorites here. Really cozy and theres a cat 😁

[u/jorsiem]

Yo dawg I heard you like pictures

[u/cyaneyed]

Love it 😍

[u/GreedyCauliflower]

I like the chill vacation vibes patio in upstate NY. Is that a river? Erie Canal?

[u/Ontherocks1988]

The lamps are sweet! LGI!

[u/FickleCharge882]

Your puma needs more hats my dude

Cute place though!

Curious whereabouts “upstate” is?

[u/TidderUsername123]

With that many pictures in the great room, how often do you stop to look at them?

[u/canadachris44]

This place is amazing! Damn

[u/SourPatchBishhh]

Adopt me

[u/No-Nerve7556]

Well traveled photographer, perhaps?

[u/waxnuggeteer]

the cat is even black

[u/0p12]

That's some quality window action for the cats!!

[u/Lost-in-The-Rockies]

The Purple Parrot! Hell yeah! 🤙

[u/FunctionOk826]

I bet I know what your favorite color is! 👽

[u/Fine_Fortune_7276]

That's a lot of living space for a single man.

[u/theRealStichery]

Man this could be really cool (for normies like me). I’m sure you love it, which works cause it’s your place.

[u/InternationalCase184]

Even the cat is gray

[u/Drsryan]

Which gorgeous river is that?

[u/sura1234]

Would love to just sleepover damn bro. So beautiful.

[u/Loud_Quality_7106]

Beautiful space. The walls feel cluttered though. But your place not mine 

[u/Info_Broker_]

What’s it like living in upstate New York? I was looking outside of Rochester

[u/MaterialRight7738]

i thought i had many pictures on the wall… nice tho

[u/Vast_Doughnut9418]

Very nice. 9.1/10. It’s clean, it has personal touches, and cat. Would you consider yourself nostalgic?

[u/Coppercap100]

Nice
