Giving credit where credit's due


My first thought when I saw the above photo was that it was lousy, and the real estate agent should go out and retake it. But then I scrolled down in the listing to the Google Street View:

Laurie found this listing for people who like Subway. Really, really like Subway. Like it so much that if a listing were going to have just one photo, this is the one they should use -- because the only thing that's important is that the apartment is near a Subway.

I suppose it works equally well for people who hate Subway. Really, really hate Subway.
