Squawk!


I like to imagine that the homeowner perches in this hanging chair and talks to the two stuffed birds on their little swings. (But by "like to imagine" I actually mean "am terribly afraid.")

Dreary. So very dreary.



This is perhaps the most soul-destroying photo I've ever seen on a real estate listing. Its bleakness has sapped my ability to write. Excuse me -- I need to go sit outside for a while.

Colorblind painters need work, too


"Oh crap, someone wrote on the wall here..."
"Eh, don't worry -- just paint over it and nobody will notice."

Perhaps that's a spotlight outside the window


No, no, the room gets plenty of sunlight. It's not dark at all. Why do you ask?

Needs TLC


Yes, this is really a photo from a listing... but unfortunately it's almost incomprehensible, so it's impossible to tell what's going on (unless you read an article about it, but that's no fun).

"Marry a Princess Lost in America / Create the Magic with this Fairy Tale Princess," it says. "There is also a 1st floor Powder room."

Floor, wall, whatever



I think they put the tiles on the wrong two surfaces. Hold on:



Ah, much better.

Rar! House MAD!


Do not make the house angry. You wouldn't like it when it's angry.
