Left: useless because it's ugly as hell and won't fit in anywhere. Right: useless because it falls apart if you sneeze at it.
The amount of dust it will collect in all those crevices !!
Just order your maid to dust it twice daily with a feather duster, duh

Meh.. I'm not the best woodworker but I'm not terrible. I'd hope by that time I can at least leave them a decent handcrafted stained table or chair or something. No giant frescoes but nice routered edges on solid wood with a good burn+stain and a thick layer of lacquer.
Too exhausted to grab images but...
-
The amount I spent on college versus the amount that they spent on college
-
their pension versus my pension
-
cost of their home versus cost of my home
-
amount of adults in their household that had to work to support a family versus amount of adults in my household that have to work to support a family
-
Their CEO pay gap versus my CEO pay gap
-
number of summers where they took a week-long family vacation versus number of summers that I took a week-long family vacation
-
cost of a family trip to Disney for them versus no fucking way I could even consider affording that shit, let alone paying an overall subscription for quicker lines and somehow also individual extra charges per ride to get on those rides in less than three hours.
Re:costs, costs always go up. But relative costs are still crazy worse.
one is significantly 1) more useful and 2) does not cost $4000 to move next time the shitty apartment you’re renting gets sold to be “renovated” into luxury (cardboard) condos.
The one on the left is definitely more haunted, though.
Im leaving my grandkids a very cleanly optimized starter base in Factorio.
That's very thoughtful.
That's an amazing gift
Yeah but does the one on the left fit a rack server? I think not!
The one on the left can probably fit the very first rack server.
I mean, not anytime soon, but hopefully eventually.
Then you have until eventually to acquire a giant hand carved wardrobe to leave them.

My grandparents didn't leave me anything
Mine left me genetic disabilities
For real. And nothing against them, but they weren't exactly in a position to be hoarding possessions. They left me memories and recipes, and that's good enough.

They left you the closet to Narnia?
The one on the left took 5 months to make by monks in Tibet slave camps brought to you by China. The one on the right was made in 437.23 seconds by a Tormak 7000 series CNC discombobulizer 2000.
Sounds like an appliance from The Sims.
What Douglas Coupland calls semi-disposable Swedish furniture.
Yes! I’d read that phrase long before I ever saw an actual IKEA
