I feel like the violence and complex social structures in prison have more to do with the experience than living in a room with bars around it, but I've never been incarcerated.

Rent a group of 20 rooms at $200 per head to recreate the Stanford prison experiment. The twist is that 5 of the guests are picked at random to be the guards and are given twice their money back. Boom, 2k profit per night and a month long waiting list of signups

They do this poo poo in Denver (like 90% are in Denver, idk if there's some favorable zoning or what) to cute 1920s bungalows all the loving time and I hate it. They often come with "pop-tops" to add a full second story and an addition to the back of the house that swallows up most of the backyard, and then they destroy the facade and the interior of the house and sell it for like 4x the price they bought it.

California too, there are weird rules about what triggers a house to get reassessed at current tax values, so you see him huge remodels as result

Eh, I don't care for the original either. At least it's symmetrical I guess.

A fixer-upper for sure, but the original details are there.         After - 4BD 3.5 BA 2681sf currently asking $2.35 million and they're now calling it a "Modern Craftsman"        whoops there went the yard. but hey, it saves money on turf.

 First thing on my mind is that you place your balls on the soapdish, turn on the water and then reach out and electrify urself in style. "Won't the coroner be surprised!" E: wait wait there's a retractable laundry cord too for all you S/M hobbyists. EE: fortunately this turns out to be a fake. By popular demand fucked around with this message at 14:21 on Jan 1, 2021 |

I was going though rentals online and saw an apartment in a building in a town I once lived in. Nothing flash, but it had its own parking space which looked like this: Does anyone have any idea what all that poo poo on the ground is? I'm half expecting a Thunderbird to come rolling out of there.

It's hard to tell how high those ceilings are, but my guess is it's a lift/autostacker thing so you can get 2 cars into one space.

Looks like some kind of lift so the 116 space in the front there can get out. But yeah no clue if those ceilings will support it or not.

 There should be a car version of these archival shelves. Instead of requiring an aisle adjacent to every space, we can double park if there’s a way to shift cars to the side and put the gap where it’s needed.

I know of no easier way, but I crammed a VW into my garage with a ‘66 Pontiac by using my trolley jacks. They do make wheel dollys, but you have to jack the car up to get one under each wheel...but then you can roll the car anywhereBy popular demand posted:
Nowadays, if new is being fitted to the original wall, you’d have to take time & do trial cuts because the angle Of the curve might vary. It’ll never look right if going for stained finish, you’d be better off carving a corner element to fill it. If they’d taken the time to put a finished edge on it, it would be fine.

I hate Twitter so I might as well extract the photos for everyone:   Im almost certain I've seen a cheap kung fu movie fight on this railing.  E: the Zillow link has some more hits-  The saddest wash basin.  And this is where the vaguely south American drug lord will send more goons to kill Chuck Norris.  When I called for prison reform this is not what I had in mind. By popular demand fucked around with this message at 19:46 on Jan 1, 2021 |

I like the pattern on the exterior walls, and the bits of the roof that don't look like the wreckage of an old school windmill.

I can only think there has to be a hole beneath it if it's a lift, and I can't think of what else it might be. But the listing only has it as a single car space. You'd want to be bloody sure you don't leave a car on top of it, because that a cement ceiling right above it. EDIT: Ohhh, a horizontal lift, not vertical
