If you thought the house by the nuclear power plant was bad, you haven’t begun to witness real estate horror.  Behold Lovely Listing, a what’s what of creepily edited photos, horrible house furnishings, accidental forced perspective, and, ahem, odd kitchen/bathroom hybrids like the one you see above. It’s a treasure trove of how not to take real estate photos, decorate your home, or generally do any kind of interior design.

Basically, Lovely Listing highlights every possible offense to all five senses.  For example, in the photo above?  Not only are you working with 250 square feet total (if you’re lucky), you also have wooden everything (floors, ceilings, and all furniture… including over the shower, which is bad).  The oven is right next to the picnic table.  You can barely fit a dorm-sized microwave in the gap between the top and bottom cabinet installations.  There’s two sinks when you could probably make due with just one.

And, of course, you have a TOILET next to the KITCHEN.  One flush with the lid open and you’ve got sewage all over your oranges. While it’s better than going outside, you couldn’t rough in a water closet?  Granted that’d be pretty claustrophobic, but it’s a lot better than people being able to look in your kitchen window and watch you shower (or worse).

Sometimes, I think people just do things without thinking them through.  Other times, I know people just do things without thinking them through.

Usually, when someone talks about hot beats, it’s just because they really like the music.  However, one unnamed woman on a flight from Beijing, China, to Melbourne, Australia, got exposed to some really hot beats.  A woman’s headphone burst into flames while she was wearing them! It’s just not safe to enjoy yourself anymore, between […]

This will be the last Samsung Galaxy Note 7 to ever be on an airplane.  After all, the phone has been pulled from shelves and pockets all around the world, because the phones tend to, uh… catch fire and/or explode.  It’s not a laughing matter if you’re flying over the Rocky Mountains with one in […]

Since 2014, Craig Sager has been caught in the fight of his life.  He’s been battling leukemia since 2014, and he’s had multiple stem-cell treatments and rounds of radiation, and he continues to struggle against the disease for all he’s worth.  He’s been a very public face for most of his life, and now he’s engaged […]

The Red Cross is a wonderful organization.  When there’s trouble, the Red Cross is there setting up shelters and handing out food and water.  The Red Cross is normally very sensitive to the community needs around them, to boot.  However, sometimes, something will slip through the cracks that just looks wrong.  One of these things is […]

One of the most famous features of Matt Groening’s fictional town of Springfield is a strange one.  Springfield is home to a giant, perpetually burning tire fire.  I guess considering the town also has a nuclear plant that routinely leaks glowing green waste into the town’s water supply, the tire fire isn’t such a big […]

Gas prices don’t usually go down.  They go up.  Gas prices rose for decades, sometimes slowly, sometimes quickly, but always up on a long enough timeline.  Not long ago, $4 a gallon for gas was a very real proposition.  Nobody thought prices would go in the other direction, and yet… gas prices are going down […]

Fashion designers look for inspiration everywhere.  Some of it is pop culture, like Friday the 13th-inspired hoodies.  Other fashions are inspired by low culture, like deluxe Snuggies.  Some people turn to the culture of their past for inspiration, like the 8-bit video games they grew up on.  Italian fashion house Moschino is partnering with Nintendo […]
