Privacy in the sense that someone can be having a conversation in the front room while someone is cooking in the kitchen and someone else can be in the TV room watching a show and no one is bothering each other. But if you like living in a one room cabin, be my guest.

At one point Grover was doing hourly searches for "drywall", "insulated", and any other keywords from grover-haus. I guess he had lots of dirt on the mods, because you were not safe in any subforum.

The shack is worth almost 2x the selling price. Here's a look at the inside - I like how you can't even open the front door fully because of the sofa. 16 De Long St in Outer Mission, San Francisco $814,500 | 2 bd • 2 https://b1iw.app.link/naGQJAJ9n3

Real Talk: Open plan public spaces are fine, see: great rooms, the problem is when you sacrifice the private spaces because you don't have enough room for open public space and closed private space. My all means do an open plan foyer/formal living/dining but you also need an informal living area like a den or a parlor.

You get to enter a drawing too, to see if you are selected lol They also passed a law requiring any new business to also build housing for some % of the workers because it was becoming impossible to hire people without everyone commuting in from across the mountains. The traffic was getting bad and annoying all the millionaires

Like imagine the nightclub scene in American Psycho. Yeah this breakfast nook would look just amazing with a mauve backsplash and the stools reupholstered with a preschooler’s skin. The original teak flooring would just need to be sanded and stained but we can definitely make it work, it would be a shame to just get rid of it.

been watching Home Town every so often. it seems cute. It's still more or less your average HGTV show, but the couple doing all the work seem pretty sweet. The girl has blonde hair in a short kinda pixie cut and so she's pretty fuckin' attractive to me, and the guy is kinda muscly but overweight with a big ol' beard and doesn't really stand out to me too much. Anyway, they do seem to put their all into what they do, and given how spritely the girl is, it's definitely not the worst thing on the network.

Jackson Hole is a destination + playground for the actual ultra-rich so nothing about this should be remotely surprising, it just strikes most Americans as weird because it's Wyoming instead of somewhere suitably exotic like Monaco (and they're unaware of how incredibly nice that specific part of the country is)

It's some of the most beautiful land in the country out there. And the rich fucks are treating it like their private Galts' Gulch. I went up there for the eclipse 2.5 years ago, wound up watching it from a Hoback River campground, it was tits. Never forget to keep putting Hole on the end, the rich cunts there have tried to rename it just Jackson for years now.

I would live in Jackson's Hole if they renamed it Hillary's oval office to drive out the wealthy and down the housing prices. It's just ridiculous how beautiful it is out there. You know, except for all the rich fucks making it impossible to live within 100 miles of it for a reasonable price.

stealie72 posted:It's the only show on HGTV I dont dread. They also work with reasonable budgets and dont poo poo everyrhing up with shiplap and that one goddamn gray. I also like Home Town  I think it’s one of the only shows where house values drop into mid five figures. They seem genuinely invested in improving their town and do what looks like good work, and Ben’s furniture is lovely. Also it’s nice that the comic relief is just Ben making hilariously bad dad jokes instead of Chip being an insufferable doofus and Joanna being visibly irritated. The show that I actually really like and find relevant to my situation as owner of a ratty Victorian is Rehab Addict, in which a no-nonsense petit blond lady expertly and respectfully unfucks ratty Victorians. There are like 4-5 episodes per house so they can go in-depth with how they’re accomplishing things and don’t waste air time handwringing over budget or numbers in general. Also she’s always dirty and disheveled so you know she’s actually doing work herself (unlike the Property Brothers who always look perfect). But this show gets shunted off to secondary DIY Network so HGTV has more space for Property Brothers, Love It or List It, and Fixer Upper reruns. My mom keeps telling me to watch Property Brothers (aka “the one with the handsome twins”) for ideas on our house even though I’ve repeatedly said I hate open concept and gray walls and generally everything else they do.

He'd help out people who had legit gotten screwed by contractors, and usually needed the massively subsidised help the Mike Holmes offered. Season two and on were: "The contractor put our Italian marble tile floors in wrong. The entire floor is off by 0.003mm from end to end. Our home is no longer liveable! Please help us!" <Mike complains about contractors, says he'll make it right, we never see him again until the end of the show".
