And it's why I replied to Perestroika with "OK, I believe you" which I now realize sounds weirdly passive-aggressive without context -- my bad.

Reminds me of how in some countries there'll be tons of big houses with one part left unfinished so they count as 'under construction' as a tax loophole.

They also recently rebuilt the Beetlejuice house (it was only ever random exterior pieces, even the pre-Deetz-i-fication version.)

I'd throw out the hipster thrift-store-rear end furniture though and replace it all with black and red boudoir Fetlife-esque chairs and tables to match the black walls. At least they have the TV in the upper area at a sensible height.

Someone stuck a bunch of plaster all over my brick fireplace so I scraped it all off and then had to paint it because I didn’t feel like getting every last bit of plaster. I still want to find the person who did that and kick their rear end.

there's 4 bedrooms, so it's the kind of place you would split with 3 other people or couples.

Why you would visit Cincinnati employing this strategy instead of a snowy mountain or a beach i have no idea

But Alice doesn't live in the restaurant, she lives in the church nearby the restaurant, in the bell-tower, with her husband Ray, and Fasha the dog. And living in the bell tower like that, they got a lot of room downstairs where the pews used to be in.

Having all that room, seeing as how they took out all the pews, they decided that they didn't have to take out their garbage for a long time.

This is a thing in Greece apparently. Meanwhile in Bulgaria they just never report any additions to the building to evade taxes, or demolish the original construction except for the foundation and put a new building on top without reporting. This works until the house is put up for sale and the buyer has a good lawyer go over the paperwork prior to purchase. Sometimes the house is only 1/4th its actual size on paper.

The 1980s Australian sitcom Kingswood Country featured a lot of references to the lead character's favourite lawn ornament "Neville The Concrete Aboriginal" and the original opening credits actually start with a shot of him lovingly scrubbing it clean
