Being shown horror homes is part of the house hunting experience.

I saw one where the first thing the real estate guy said to me before we went in was "... okay, brace yourself." Not quite a hoarders level home, but close enough. And the whole time time the owner is still there following us around going "You see my vunderful treasures! If you buy, I leave all for you. You can have all treasures!"

You could see the real estate guys soul leaving his body since he knew he was never going to unload that dump.

I'm glad the worst place I'd seen wasn't all that bad. I had was one where it was clear they turned a walk-in closet into one bedroom, the living room into another bedroom, and a weird storage space that was like 5 feet tall into another bedroom. Still stupid as hell and they were trying to rent it out at a price comparable to other 3br apartments in the area. The renting market makes people do the dumbest poo poo in the world

Do people just not understand how elevators work? OK so you go to the second floor, get in the elevator on its way down. You’re now in the front of the car with a lot of other people maybe. Down to the first floor, you got a shuffle while everybody behind you gets out now you’re in the back of the car. Now a bunch of people from the first floor get in and you still have to ride up through all the floors of people that just got on

Getting on to a downward elevator car doesn’t magically make it say “nah fuckit, I’m going UP now!”

The point is that you're now right in the elevator instead of waiting 20 minutes for it to make 4-5 more trips before you get to go inside

Reminds me of seeing a documentary about the new superthin building in downtown manhattan. Because of the wacky design, the whole building is serviced by two elevators, with a cab on top of one of the residential elevators as the freight elevator.

I imagine canny agents schedule viewing appointments during off hours. You'll never know about the problem until after you move in and try to use the elevator during rush hour.

If you want to live there a 1 bedroom is available right now, for $2350. LOL.

They're not useable for disabled people and you can hurt yourself if you're dumb. And you can get that far cheaper with stairs, so noone builds paternosters anymore.

Saw this posted on Reddit and it reeked of simultaneously both being on par with a hilariously horrifyingly doomed goon project and belonging in this thread so I had to post it here:

The thread title posted:

Edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/DiWHY/comments/15i2yg5/i_made_my_gf_a_pillow_out_of_my_chest_hair_so_she/

As a bonus a fair number of the replies are about on par with the old days of people mocking old goon projects too.

Apparently this lead to the guy following the old forum tradition of getting dragged and doubling down in a huff by posting a video of him removing each hair with a tweezer one by one and posting it online on tik tok or some similar place. Because you want evidence of doing this on the net. Sadly I can't provide a cursed video to this thread since I can't find it and I suspect common sense asserted itself leading to it's deletion.

Hell, even in the early 90's when I lived in San Francisco my friends lived in a place that had obviously been designed as a single apartment but, through some weird door placement in the main hallway and some of the tricks you describe had been turned into two "apartments". The layout was so strange and made zero sense until you ultimately realized what had happened.

It kind of worked out because they were all friends filling both "apartments" anyways but it was more like an awkward division of space than either of them actually having their own place. Somehow, they managed to give each "unit" its own kitchen and bathroom but you could tell it was makeshift and clearly not designed that way originally.
