L@@K! Photos from Real Estate Listings (see remarks)

1) thank you for rescuing this thread

2) lol at pulling down the attic ladder, sprucing it up, and calling it a reno!

The, um, "balustrade" is what identifies this as a project of dedication.

Not sure where this goes, I rmember having a conversation with sone of you about this subject:

Seriously, every time I see one of these listings, I think of

I find it weird that the grey trend hasn't died but instead metastasized into grimmer and grimmer iterations.

Finding it odd that there are still a load of photos from like 6 or whatever years ago still active. Would have thought if they were linked to listings they would be empty small squares instead of photos. Since some of the newer ones are. Did the OP have a site he was copying to or something?

Nothing like a nice footbath while you take a dump

Another Schindler's Listing:

At least they kept the hardwoods.

Schindler's Listing:

dying ... (like a kid with a red balloon)

My parents just finally redid their basement (which was likely last renovated in the 60s) and did it all gray. I'm so mad, but I am pretending I love it.

also, A+ joke pplains

hahaaa

It's not the first time I've made it, fwiw!

Lmao! it bears repeating

I'm all on board for this beating out the yards with Bermuda Zoysia drinking 9,000 gallons of water a day, but really. I'd still like to see what was wrong with the other yards in the neighborhood.

Sometimes I'll click on a listing even though I know it's only going to depress me in the end.

For example, the sign hanging in the upper left corner.

Are we really going to blame the kids for all of the luggage, the sombreros, the knicknacks above the window...

...the sectional couch in front of the fireplace, the bottle of Coke, the jar of Vasaline.

"If you want breakfast in bed tomorrow, sleep in the kitchen tonight"?

But why sleep in the kitchen when

And yes, there is another refrigerator on the other side of that doorway.

Honestly, I kinda respect the chaos there

Those darn kids.

Bed in front of the fridge kind of my fantasy

It’s bad all the way through but nothing will prepare you for the final reveal, I gasped lol https://t.co/OTCe00jyFF

Putting this here to make space between koogs' post and my post below.

BUT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS when you start promoting hospital rooms with sinks, hotel rooms with hot tubs, water getting sprayed everywhere where people sleep. WHY NOT just put a shitter by the door? Don't like it? Then buy a 33m x 3m apartment with an OUTHOUSE.

i like the idea of those narrow houses - the ex-narrowest house in the uk is 5 minutes from here - but literally 1/4 of it is stairs and the ends of each floor are dead ends.

(look carefully and the thing in the shop-window at the front is a matisse-style bowler-hat lampshade. they often have lego models in there)

that third-floor bed looks wider than the diagram suggests it is - 1.88m

You gotta have on/off switches on your electric outlets / power points, but THIS is ok?

i'd prefer a toilet to a death pit personally

you're saying those are 2 different things?

You may want to contact a plumber

Took me a second before I realized that this wasn't an M.C. Escher home.

i respect it

No doubt built in a place with lots of "freedom"

it's the kind of thing a guy does when he doesn't have any.

of course it's over a dead-ass yard. i feel like i need to see the view in order know if there is any justification at all for it.

I was implying freedom from building codes. I could easily be wrong, but that thing looks crazy with no joists!

that looks like one of those souped up frat houses I visited in the south.

that thing looks crazy with no joists!

somebody will/has/is currently in the process of dying there

Each new slide revealed in the gallery just messed with my head even more.

Like, I know there's a damn good reason why the top picture frame appears to be hung above the mirror but is still reflected inside of it...

... but after touring the rest of the house, I'm not sure of anything anymore.
