No more chairs jumping on the bed!

ONE little chair jumping on the bed
It fell off and BUMPED its head
Mama called the Realtor and the Realtor said
"No more furniture jumping on the bed!"

(Found by Dawn. Thanks!)

We're through the looking glass here, people

This house -- found by David -- features not only Special Bendy Walls, but also a sinkless faucet in the middle of the kitchen wall.

If you can teach your thirsty dog to turn the water on, great; if you can teach him to turn it back off again, even better.

Considering a career change? A new hobby?

Another of Anna's finds. Is this... a dental office?


Why yes, I believe it is. One the listing doesn't mention. One I don't think I'll be going to as a patient any time soon, thank you.

SOON I WILL RULE THE BASEMENT

Found by Anna, who says she can't even tell what it's of. I don't know why not -- it's clearly two robots (one shooting flames) fighting each other.

Telling, but not in a good way

What does this photo tell us about the house? That it has a floor? Perhaps that it's wired for electricity? That people have slept here?

(Found by Cynthia.)

My kids would love a treehouse

From Kate, who says it's "the perfect home for survivalists. Keep Britain green! Hack your way through the undergrowth to the bathroom! Potential buyers should bring own machete when attending viewing appointment."

Take out the trash

Take out the garbage can. Just take it out. Out of self respect, just take out the garbage can.

P.S. The flyswatter isn't such a great touch, either.

An alien invasion, I think

Tentacles!


Tentacles everywhere!



(Thanks to Julia for the bottom two tentacles.)

Have fun selling the castle!

If you were going to have one photo in a listing, would this be it? Yes? It would? Well, all right then.

Found by Charlene, who says "it's probably easy to defend which, given the neighbourhood, isn't a bad thing, but don't most people want a front window?"

Built to last

Kandi found a real gem. I'll let her tell you about it.

"Paving stones in the yard...right on!"


"Paving stones on the porch... makes sense."


"Paving stones on the counter... o-kaay, things are starting to get weird."


"Paving stones on the wall. I think you've lost me."

Needed: Photoshop expert

I'm no expert, but I think that there's a slight chance someone's been manipulating this photo. Unless the house really looks like this -- I've never been to Texas, what do I know -- in which case I apologize.

(Found by Jena, representing Texas, who "can't believe they didn't mention the cantilevers in the listing!")

Just one or two things left to do

"The property does need some aesthetic work but almost all major stuff has been done by us. All it needs a is a roof leak fixed, Some paint and drywall, And ceiling tiles put in. Other then that it is pretty much perfect."

Oh... I can't stop quoting. Hold on: "And remember cash talks, bullshit walks. I am more then willing to be reasonable, but waste My time and I'll waste yours... The only reason We are selling it is to get out of Maine, Call us crazy but We prefer a good state."

Found by M Wms.

Party central!

"Party inside the spacious living room or on the covered patio; great place to invite friends over for good times." And look! It comes with guests!

Found by cortex, who will continue his househunt.

(It's hard to link to, but if you're really curious the MLS number is 8058002.)

HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION

HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION
by
The Chair

Here I am, on my way:


First stop: my aunt and uncle's house. We sat out back and talked (here we are with my cousin):



Next I went to visit my old college housemates:



I guess I we relived the old days a bit too well, because I woke up here:


One I'd recovered, I was off to explore the big city:


One thing I like about travel is getting to meet people who don't look like all the people back home, if you know what I mean:


They took me and my old housemates to a cool party in someone's basement -- wild times!


My old housemates were a bit freaked out, though. They're so uptight:


Finally, back home for a much-needed rest.

Not really the look we're doing this year

Found by Anna, who says "'In need of updating?' You had me at picture number three!" She's easily swayed -- I didn't fall in love until picture number seven:


Yup, an update. That's all it needs.

ET phone stager

Well? Does this make you want to buy the house?


What if it were shown from... this angle?


(I actually am very, very envious.)

Oh deer (sorry, sorry)

Found by Sue T, who says of this photo: "It's blurry... it has a deer.... staring at the stairs. What is going on with the railings? The deer and I are both quite amazed. Or amused. Or maybe we are all just drunk, including the railings."

Maybe it's just grainier in Nova Scotia.

This listing -- found by Terry & Shauna -- confuses me. The images are on a website, so at some point someone had access to technology beyond a photocopier.

Someone must have taken the photographs, made photocopies of them, and then... put the copies in a scanner? Taken digital photos of them? Stuffed them into the CD drive? Held them up to the monitor and said "These ones, computer! Put these ones up on the Internet!"

BF4E

Awww.... the oven, water heater, and furnace are all huddled up together. Group hug! Really really warm group hug!

Another fleeing bathtub

Run, bathtub! Go join your friend!

Found by longboater and househunter dw, who is disturbed by the mortuary table in the basement:


Wimp.
