Monday Nerdgasm : “How to live in a 258 Square Foot Apartment” by Christian Shallert, photographer

Just the other day I thought to myself, my apartment is just too small. I have no place to put my old X-Men comics…the ones when the team lived in Australia and were all awesome and stuff. Well, if I were as resourceful and handsome as photographer Christian Schallert, all my problems would be solved. Watch the clip below and see for yourself.
