I have some doubts about you having a toilet and closet looking like this.

it's not that people want generic. it's that generic is fine for almost everyone and lets them customize it to themselves somewhat, but something that's highly customized to someone else is not fine for people who aren't them, and it's hard to make it customized to yourself

like maybe you love nautical themes, and beatmasterj loves GAMERZ/bdsm themes; neither of you are going to be happy in each other's custom house and have no real way to get it to something you're happy with. but if you both have a generic house, you can hang some pictures of boats and he can spraypaint black and red and hang up some whips, and you're both pretty happy.

Oh, intellectually I grasp that, lowest common denominator etc.

Even so, it always amazes me how little personality most people's homes seem to have. We're such a pre-fab society.

Oh also those sinks are trash for everything. I know we talked about it in his last thread, two years ago, but I feel like they're getting a free pass due to everything else being so terrible.

Like, in a normal house, those sinks would be the worst thing you could do. Can't fill them with water, impossible to clean, can't have high pressure faucets or it sprays off the side, can't do an emergency "dip" to correct messed up hair because the faucet is on one side instead of in the middle, can't fill them to wash things like razor blade handles or bras, and the raised, jagged corners will crack your skull open one day.

But no. In this bathroom, they're like a "2" on the "regular hosed up to beatmasterj hosed up" 1-10 scale.

poo poo, yeah. I have very short hair and sometimes I'll still splash water in my hair over a sink to un-bedhead it if I'm low on time.

Like I get it, the knobs in the middle let you turn on/off the various heads, but I'm just unsure of the point. If the middle ones were like a foot lower I'd say it's an easy way to clean out your rear end in a top hat but it's just shooting water at your belly. Plus in a country where even the major cities have lovely water pressure, turning on the middle heads just made them squirt water like 6 inches away from the wall.

He has almost never (maybe actually never?) mentioned women's opinions after posting the finished pics. I think that he's had a real life woman walk into it and tell him it sucks and/or he's decided the women are stupid and to go whole hog on a Man Cave bathroom.

Yeah. Honestly I think it would be better if he'd committed to Man Cave bathroom 100% rather than putting in a few details for the females. As it is the bathtub doesn't match anything else and the chandelier looks goofy. A chandelier like that might be okay with very soft girly colours, but if you want hard masculine colour scheme you need appropriate hard masculine light fixtures.

Maybe something like this would work better?

23k was the cost of labor for a contractor coming in to fix the fuckups when it stopped being a DIY project, the granite vanity and the actual materials/fixtures are on top of that

Yeah this stopped being DIY a long time ago sheesh. I think 23 was around what it cost to have a roof and concrete/evacation done AND put up all the interior infrastructure of a 700 square foot addition. Couldn't imagine dropping that alone on loving up my bathroom (granted man baby's bathroom might be the size of my addition).

Costs for remodeling and construction vary by a huge, huge amount depending on region. This is part of why it's silly to compare how much different goons spent on a given remodel. The other reason is because a single detail can wildly throw off the cost.

Since we're talking :females:, imagine doing any of the stereotypical "female" tasks in this bathroom.

Like, imagine trying to regularly sweep and mop a pile of loose gravel. Or imagine trying to keep a bathroom shiny with a full glass wall, two windows and six loving mirrors to clean.

Just imagine trying to get comfortable on plastic rocks beside that beast of a tub so you can bathe an infant.

tbf when we bathed my kid in the sink it was the kitchen sink, because bathroom sinks aren't usually big enough, even normal ones (and in a kitchen sink you can move the faucet)

of course we then used the loving tub once the baby was bigger which, uh, you can't do here
