its a banksy

I feel IA at the shape of the living room in this luxury condo in my neighborhood that also sells for nearly 3x the price of a nearly equivalent co-op apartment.

You don't like that it ends at a point?

Look! You get that nifty little reading nook because of it. If it was flat, the nook would directly face the rest of the room.

IDK why it annoys me so much, partly just because it's so narrow compared to typical apartments in my neighborhood, which are mostly very spacious due to having been built in the 40s/50s. The point is awkward to me though, like it doesn't really look comfy as a nook, but it also doesn't interact with the rest of the room.

but it also doesn't interact with the rest of the room.

Could that be the point?

It does look narrow, but hey, isn't that life in the big city?

"Can I get you anything? Perhaps some Pringles?"

xp, IDK it just looks like an awkward layout resulting from an awkwardly shaped building resulting from an effort to put the maximum # of apartments on an awkwardly shaped lot to me. And it's absurdly expensive for the area, although the terrace has a "bar pergola."

- "Sorry! I can't hear you! I'm in the kitchen!"

- "I can't see very well in here. Does that say 'Haunted'?"

- "No, of course not. That would be silly. It says 'Wanted'."

Hmm. Maybe there's good reason why it's the loneliest number.

"Pressure-washer gathering dust? Have we got the house for you!"

I dunno? Maybe the light fixture in the second photo's cut from real diamond?

Was just browsing and found this. Weirds me out that it comforts me knowing this room is alive and well somewhere in America.

the idea of that phone ringing spooks me

I imagine silence, while one sits facing the mater, a clock ticking ominously in the background.

I feel like I can picture who lives in the house I posted above. It's the guy from my freshman college dorm with a blowout who once told one of my friends "I could make three phone calls and have you dead."

Second phone call goes to the guy who sits in the blue chair in mine.

I find these very subtly bad:

"Oh you know, I love music, that's why I keep random components of a drum kit on hand not set up in any playable configuration"

Certainly an obscenely soulless and too-large house.

I love how the attempts at grandeur break down once we reach an actual room - just 8 foot ceilings, Venetian blinds, and an ill-proportioned room struggling to make sense of way way too many windows. Good luck putting anything in there besides miscellaneous objects arranged in order to vaguely suggest a hobby or lifestyle choice.

I'd live there. I could turn it around.

Yours for 3 mil

Weird how they snapped the photo just as the bride was coming out of the rest room.

Love the fringe halos around the trees. Anything else it's got that violates space and dimensions?

(via jes skolnik on twitter: he got excited and a pal of his did some archive-diving)

ha yea we were talking about this place in the "buying a house" thread

posted it there too :)

another wonderful pplains thread. in the words of loleatta holloway, he gets down to the real nitty gritty.

lol that link. house is kind of amazing all things considered

great place to live if you take shrooms every day

This house was occupied by two brothers for 30 years. The owner was a hoarder and the property has about 10 sheds on it. The price is what it is because of the condition of the house. It is in need of a total rehab of the house and the yard. The bones of this house seem good but is not for the faint of heart. There is a strong urine smell throughout and the inside needs to be stripped out and totally redone to make this into something worthwhile, or just bulldozed and stick a new house on the lot.

Oh no

The reprise of the screened-in porch couldn't even distract me.

Appropriate it's on Freese Drive though.

I didn't catch that, but it sure is.

Hope no one steals their pool.

i didn't notice at first, it was just little buckets of water each time, but then I went for a dive and found out the hard way there was no pool left

is this house in lino lakes?

I just need to make a new thread devoted to television sets in the wrong places.

https://i.imgur.com/enMZIU0.png

Bad enough that the set in the center is not just behind the door, but also appearing to stick out further than the stopper, but also that there's another television set located six feet away.

Anyway. Feel free to say hi to Lou and Kenny while you're here.

reminds me of the “womb chairs” they had at my undergraduate institution

I love those kind of slideshows.

I too fight this battle, but you can't surrender to your pets like this.

Bet that dude's always singing "I Talk to the Wind" in the shower, amirite.
