“I will post a common building type in an unrelated thread and call it cursed” bro lay off the weed

__These are pretty common buildings in non-urban areas?! I get that they’re creepy but also, like, really really common and not weird_

I love it when Ilx gets didactic_


Eh, I already know yr a miserable asshole, no need to show me again.


Fuck off. Look in the mirror and stop projecting

no one is being didactic you're being a cloistered weirdo

"An end table? Yeah, sure? How hard can that be?"

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.

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?

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.

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.

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

Honestly, I kinda respect the chaos there

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.

pplains, Tuesday, 6 September 2022 13:47 (one year ago) link

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)

koogs, Tuesday, 6 September 2022 16:24 (one year ago) link

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?

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.
