I get that apprehensive looming feeling of "here comes the claustrophobia panic, I'm gonna start crazily trying to bust my way out of here" watching people side stepping through that place. When they first walk in or in the fully wide places It looks cool then when they go in the areas where it's split in half and see someone in front of the camera who clearly does not fit correctly my brain starts going "nope nope nope nope!"

My friend and I used to drop “I just wanna make an omelette!!” at each other for years after that aired. I would have 110% watched Tiny House back in the day if it didn’t violate the Geneva Convention.

I don't know the specifics, but I would 100% believe the Geneva Convention thing to be true. I had never seen the movie Ocean's 13 before, but it happened to be on TV the other day. It's mostly a lighthearted heist movie.

However, in an interrogation room a lady threatens one of the thieves with locking them in a room for a long time. A room that is too short to stand up in, and too narrow in any direction to lay down and stretch out in.

A few days later that idea is still haunting me.

Shame about that one big gouge in the shag carpet in the photo with the indoor swing

I got excited about the fire pole until I noticed there isn't a break in the railing on the second floor which means it's probably a boring old dancing pole instead.

There's other sections where the shag is even more hosed up



The shag pile also crawls up the walls and encroaches onto the tiled areas in disturbing ways, almost like it's some kind of alien growth which they painted to disguise it as carpet

Between the decor and the indoor swing, I bet that carpet has more than one STD.

What you really want is something like this place. I toured it in Minneapolis the day it went on the market -- it definitely has flaws that are inherent to the dome design but is indeed very cool and much less weird than you'd think.

However, it's also drat near new inside, built with quality materials, and had some serious money put into the furnishings etc. The dome I posted earlier is very much... not like that.

Yeah that actually looks pretty sick. Way cheaper than I would've expected, too. I get the impression that it's probably a lot smaller than it looks but the aesthetic is cool

My guesses would be:

* Very few people want to spend over $600K for a gimmick.
* With a loft and partially finished basement, it's technically 3000 sqft, but much of it isn’t that useful.
