That’s the kitchen/living room/bathroom/bedroom.

I feel that way about carpet in general, and even rugs. They trap dust and dirt and pollen.

My stairs are carpeted purely for the sake of traction. And also because it’s my parents’ house, so it wasn’t entirely my decision to make.

“My stairs”

“Parents house”

I’m confused, are you young and still living at home, or do you rent an area from your parents that has stairs?

I’m 25, and have my own income and tax filing, but I live with my parents and help out as needed when I’m not at work. I’m kinda tempted to just inherit the house someday.

That used to be a thing in the 70s. Or a big rug/mat thing.

Carpeted bathrooms, too. Even more disgusting than you could imagine.

Every single one I’ve posted is from Reddit. I missed the sub so I created one here. I’m getting it started with poached content (accessed via Dystopia so no ads and I don’t interact at all) to get this community up and running. Hopefully it won’t be long before enough subscribers are contributing here so there’s no need to steal from Reddit.

Is there someone who does this but for actually liveable properties? I tire of the cynicism.

That’s a lot of counter space. I’m sold.

Terrible Estate Agent Photos

!badrealestate@feddit.uk

Create post

Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.

Posting guidelines.

Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:

  • the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)

  • the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)

  • the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)

  • the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.

  • Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.

  • Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.

  • Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content

Rules.

This community follows the rules of the feddit.uk instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:

  • Be civil, remember the human.
  • No insulting or harassing other members. That includes name-calling.
  • Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
  • Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
  • Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
  • Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
  • No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
  • No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.
