Ah yeah. Why they even sell fluffy bathroom rugs is a mystery to me, I guess some people can't see the fine layer of dust that accumulates on everything in the toilet room.
Some people value not having to step out from the nice warm shower onto arctic ice. :shrug:

It’s much cleaner and feels good man

It feels unmasculine and wrong. I don't like having to tuck my dick underneath the toilet seat, which is uncomfortable. I have been standing to piss since was 3. The only times I don't stand are if I have diarrhea and can't trust my rear end or am too hosed up or hung over to stand.

A lifetime of standing in piss is a small price to pay to avoid confronting your insecurities.

I just tried to sit down to pee a few minutes ago just for giggles and my body was like "ok, we're making GBS threads now right? right?!? wait, what are you doing? WE'RE NOT DONE YET!"

I checked the link, and every non-bathroom has all that stuff. What are they all? Are the round ports lights, or something else? I have seen newly built hospital rooms with less connection ports.

My running theory is they were running their 20-person software dev company from home, so every room was filled with workstations.

I didn't get a picture, but while we were out trick-or-treating, I saw a two-car garage that had been converted into a living space, presumably by the previous owners. Drywall, a built-in closet, blue paint, carpeted stairs, laminate flooring. Nice-looking space.

The reason I could see it is that the garage door was open and the current owners had parked their late-model SUV inside.

I guess it's even funnier if they converted it and then said "gently caress it."

Maybe it was a model home for a development and that was the demo home? Maybe they had models/appliances to show off for things for the new development?

It still seems weird, the only plugs I recognize are the upside-down T that are the UK type G 220v plugs.

My other thought was something like an aquarium enthusiast. But even that seems excessive.

This poo poo just baffles me.

Why are there lights at knee height?
Why are there sockets at ceiling height?
Why are there double sockets at ground level, then a second, single socket a couple of feet above them?

If it were display cases, then the sockets should be at ground level. Likewise most machines/equipment.

All I can think of are wall-mounted screens and even then, the position makes no sense.

Wall mounted screens at eye-level, lower sockets for the display cases? Lights so the displays don't need their own lights?

The lower sockets are mounted at about the height I'd expect (I used to live in Kenya where they use the same plugs and that'd be about the standard height they were installed at)

Or maybe it was a mob hospital.

More baffling bullshit:

Are the ceiling lights on the right burned out, or on a different circuit?
Why, after going to enormous effort to install a vast network of wiring in the walls (and recall, this is the UK, so the walls are brick), do you have a cable in cheap plastic conduit plugged into one of the outlets (centre right).

The only thing I can think of is that the owner needed pretty intense medical care but didn't want to be bedridden, so they had to be able to plug the equipment and poo poo into the wall anywhere they wanted to go.

Probably just did that for Halloween. Clear the way for trick or treaters, prevent people from loving with the car, etc.

That’s a screened porch.




It would make a lovely greenhouse for reasons such as being on the north side of a two‐story building and having a floor with no floor drains.

More to the point, what purpose does the greenhouse serve here? If the owners had an indoor grow going, why would they jeopardise the privacy of that with a greenhouse? If more growing space is needed, why not build an addition with non‐transparent walls?

e: The map is misleading. I was looking at the wrong house. Everyone has to keep up with the Joneses and their screened porches. It’s actually on the east side of the house.

It’s possible it was used for exotic but legal plants, but I consider a weed grow unlikely.
