That seems like a loving steal for the amount of home you get. I wouldn't even redecorate most of it.

Put some different colors and more of them, it might look OK.

Tried to drill a well, hit an artesian hot spring. Hasn't stopped spraying in a century.

I remember seeing this in one of those 1950's "house of the future" concepts. Everything would be plastic and waterproof, so no more vacuuming or sweeping, just hose down the entire living room every week.

Based on what the master bedroom wall color used to be before we bought the house, I don't think so. There are people that actually do like that color on their walls. Though it could have been worse, the neighbors had to replace the bright orange shag carpet that the previous owner had installed.

Bullshit, they didn't HAVE to.

If you don't set up a water positive bathroom loop that feeds the excess poop water into a hydroponics tile, don't even talk to me.

Bonus points if you feed it to the showers by way of a water sieve that only removes chunks and doesn't kill the germs or pee.

When I worked at Walgreens, some old guy came in with his receipt to get a credit of ten cents that we overcharged him somehow. He specifically came in just for that.

I think I would be ok without a railing, unless you’re the type who gets up from the foot of your bed.

The spiral staircase makes no sense, and doesn’t save any useful space over a good usable loft ladder.

I guess with a ladder you can’t really carry like a tea and a snack to bed?

Sleepwalkers are doomed in that setup. I once tried to lift my entire dresser by myself while sleeping.

I replaced the batteries in our thermostat today. Five minutes later we check it, as my girlfriend says it was finicky the last time she changed them.

They were incredibly hot and one of the three had started melting the wrapper off itself :psyduck:

Anyway the problem was the spring for the back battery wasn't lined up and was causing some kind of bad connection, it's fine now.

Why the gently caress didn't they put a normal corner/lazy-susan type cupboard where the dishwasher is, and put the dishwasher where the single cupboard is on the right side? If you even need a dishwasher in the first place, but I guess that depends on how many bedrooms this place has. Wow I had no idea I could be this angry about kitchen design.

If it couldn't be done in a Sims game, it shouldn't be done in real life.

Hasn't it been since the 60s that grounds were required in the US? I'd be scared of what kind of wiring you're going to find if you pull those plates off.

Yeah uh I'm not messing with anything electric besides replacing a switch if it needs it. A full rewire is on the list, pretty sure it's mostly original from 1955 or so.

I'm really glad y'all talked about those three prong adapters. My partner got a free 55" TV from her friend and casually mentioned to me that she bought an adapter for the wall. Guess we'll be running an extension cord to the basement or something for a bit lol

I think there is a quota of at least one house a block with that in suburbia. I know my neighborhood has quite a few of those sprinkled around. Some original to being built in the 80s, and some due to shoehorning a 3rd garage bay onto the property.

Yeah I didn't even look twice at that, it's pretty normal around here.
