100% chance it was the orange one but also 90% chance it was Billy too.

You know in the Rocky Horror Picture Show, when Brad suggests that the castle he and Janet just drove past is probably some kind of hunting-lodge for rich weirdos? This looks like a hunting-lodge for rich weirdos.

This tool (or similar available in Ireland) is your friend, a little bit of learning curve, but invaluable for changing bulbs like that. Source: working with my dad for years in lighting and changing hard-to-reach bulbs. Practice on some easily changed ones in lower areas and you'll have the hang of it in no time.

Wow, thanks for this! The actual link is region-blocked for me, but searching "pole light bulb changer kit" is bringing up a lot of interesting options.

That may be the kitschiest mansion to appear in this thread.

Like Baz Luhrmann, Paul Reubens, and French Stewart got together and had an intervention for the owner of that house, because in their words "It's a little much."

If you're wondering why the house is still full of the guy's bizarre poo poo it's because he died last year. That silver plated garbage can you can see in the 1st and 3rd photos was apparently the original garbage can he used to perfect the formula for Hawaiian Tropic sunscreen.
I genuinely respect that guy. "I have all the money in the world, I know what I want in a house, and I'm going to have it. gently caress the resale value." No interior decorators involved.

All those photos of the models would "come alive" to say an impossible to quite make out quote, before going back to static.

If you clicked on one of the lions or the bear, they would come alive and eat you leading to one of the more enjoyable game overs.

I was going to say that's not unusual for a bathroom that opens to both a bedroom and to a hallway, so that the bedroom can still be locked from the inside while leaving the bath available for the rest of the house. (My place has that setup.) But I went back and looked at the rest of the pictures of that room, and... there doesn't appear to be another door. Also what I'm thinking of is one of those little knob-locks, not three heavy-duty deadbolts. :ohdear:
