More Bathroom Shenanigans


You know, a shower that’s so rusted over that it needs pliers to turn on the water is bad (see post immediately below this one). But let’s look at the bright side…

1. It’s in the right room.

Flush The Sadness

2. Someone with extremely specific OCD hasn’t taken to it with shag and a nail gun.

Must Carpet

3. No one is trying to live their entire life without leaving the confines of its warm embrace.

Cleanliness

Silver linings, folks. Silver linings. Thanks to Sara over at LovelyListing.com for the images!

  1. K says:

    That toilet in the first picture can’t possibly be hooked up.

    Also carpet in bathrooms is nasty!

  2. b. says:

    In picture 2, why didn’t they carpet (shag…haha) the corner ledge above the tub? Would’ve made a comfy sitting place…

  3. Czernobog says:

    Maybe that first one isn’t what it appears to be? maybe they fill it with ice when they’re having guests over and putting a bottle of champagne in it to cool?

    Also, I’ve lived in small apartments before, but that last one is ridiculous.

  4. dono1 says:

    #1 is obviously someone’s sitting room
    #2 looks like the honeymoon suite at Motel 6
    #3 appears to have everything but the kitchen sink

  5. wind says:

    are we sure 2 is carpeting? i mean, maybe it just got damp and grew moss.

  6. ChiP says:

    omg! amazing house! :)

  7. Rampart says:

    While working in a Family business growing up, I once handled a repair call to a house that had 3 inch white shag carpet, black and silver wallpaper, and mirrored ceilings. Everywhere. Including the bathroom and bedroom.The memory is a traumatic one.

  8. kablaamee says:

    @wind
    literally laugh-out-loud!

  9. The Cat says:

    This beats my idea of a computer in front of the toilet.

  10. Skid says:

    The first picture could be someone who is building a bathroom and left the toilet there.

  11. Demetrius says:

    ok… What appears (in the first pic) to be a toilet is actually an elevated, self filling, self cleaning dog bowl. Perfect for large dogs with lazy owners.

    The second is obviously a (full submersion) baptismal pool in a church for Apostolic Little People.

    And, third… Come on! Who hasn’t been on the can, wanted a sammich and then, spilled mustard on his shirt.

  12. dono1 says:

    I would reverse the hinges on the refrigerator & freezer.
    I’m just saying…

  13. Annette says:

    Actually, the last picture is rather common round here. I’ve seen more than one shared kitchen/shower room (toilet separately, though) when I’ve been looking for a cheap flat to live in during my time in college.

  14. Maria says:

    Honestly, has it never occurred to people that carpeting bathrooms is the worst, nastiest idea ever?! What better way to ensure that everyone in the family knows what it feels like to have your germs than to install a germ/moisture/vermin breeding ground? Carpet traps moisture, which feeds bacteria and viruses. Plus, men who can’t aim into the toilet contribute their “liquid gold” to the mix and *voila*, nastiness!

    Don’t forget the vomit. Those stains/smells are tenacious, too.

  15. Pat says:

    Again, speechless…

  16. Bob says:

    When I had my studio built, I had a urinal installed next to my desk. Because it was my damn office, and I could. To be honest, I have never regretted it. Having a place to pee right next to your desk kicks ass when you are on a roll.

  17. Badgirl says:

    Do you think the photographer in pic 3 is sitting on the kitchen table or the bed? Or the kitchen table is the bed?

  18. Loose the carpet, it always smells in a bathroom and damp

  19. Mel says:

    dono1 :
    I would reverse the hinges on the refrigerator & freezer.
    I’m just saying…

    Not that this is the only thing wrong with the bottom picture, but the upside-down freezer handle is the icing on the cake.

  20. Steeve says:

    maybe number 1 is just a really nice prison cell.

  21. Paula says:

    In the third picture, since the toilet seat is up, it’s probably a guy who lives there. I’ll bet he brings the chicks home to his “love shack.”

  22. Jack says:

    #2 – it’s not OCD. If the fixer was obsessive compulsive, they would not have left the carpet edges the way they are, or stopped abruptly where the plane of the tub intersected the wall below it. :P

  23. sebi says:

    The bottom pic looks like every starting house I ever made in the Sims for my broke-as-hell minions.
