We honestly couldn't tell from all the HDR you ran through your photos.

But as the others say, it really IS that interesting. That's why we're posting.

Post the toilet room, and log out. Come back to the thread tomorrow once both you and we have cooled off.
It's for the better.

Very heavy 15ft 8x10 wood beams. Probably the most interesting part was that they had to hoist them in through the 2nd floor window since they were too big to walk through the house.

You wake up, alone, in a strange shower, completely unaware of how you ended up here. Four large shower heads and several odd nozzles are running at what appears to be maximum capacity. Your head is pounding and your limbs feel heavy--you begin to suspect that you have been drugged! The door leading out of the room is open. You hear strange grunting sounds coming from a nearby room. There is no toilet in sight.

It is the incongruity of simultaneously posting "I made it how I like it and that's all that matters" and also seeking attention and approval for what you made.

If you genuinely didn't care, you never needed to post. If you genuinely do care, you could have consulted with a well-recommended interior designer, and had something that people in general would agree is tasteful or at least not revolting.

So the actual core object of ridicule is how you cannot reconcile these two conflicting motives.



...also the blatant :biotruths: :females: of your previous thread is lingering, and that's hilarious too

But you're also kinda right:

"a tiny room. With some grey tile on the floor and unpainted walls."

b) it wasn't cause they look good cause they don't, they're just only kind of dumb as opposed to actively in defiance of colour theory for interior design

Standard balloon framing uses 8x10s as joists. He had engineered joists in his framing for one of two reasons a) it was built by a large residential building firm who buys so much lumber that they can cut costs and achieve the same engineering standards or b) he lives in a region where lumber is scarce.Sistering in the 8x10s is the Occam's Razor solution to the problem he created for himself.

Absolutely negligible compared to the weight of a tub full of water.

Ironically, probably easier to keep clean, though. What happens when you try to vacuum dust up from a pile of plastic rocks...?

Galaxy Brain: Replace the plastic pebbles with red lava glass/rock and turn it into a fire pit. You have now increased the synergy with the rest of the red aesthetic, removed any risk of mold from the equation, and while bathing can pretend that your vampire master is cooking you in a large stew pot.

Gettin in on this bathroom posting in an effort to see that sweet tricked out toilet you undoubtedly have hidden away

It may be a little small, and the floor is fake tile, and the meme on my shower curtain might be a little dated at this point, but one huge benefit of this bathroom is the floor joists are 100% un-hosed

I don't know about pebbles but a ton of gravel wouldn't even fully cover me if I laid on the ground. Sure, a generous bathtub is probably half a cubic meter but that's about half a metric ton of water.

The tub weighs a lot for sure but don't underestimate the weight of a single layer of rock.

I've seen them used for aquariums and glass/plastic planters. Even then though they're more likely to be glass instead of plastic as it stays cleaner longer.

The reason I don't respond to most of the things that are said is simply because everyone is quick to assume that everything is a problem that only exists in my bathroom and nowhere else. I usually ignore these things because there's no way for me to prove anything that will be satisfactory to the apparently hilariously high standards of the average person in this thread.

1. Large 8x10 beams were sistered in next to the existing joists. This was engineered appropriately and is very uninteresting.
2. The pebble tray is full of very lightweight plastic rocks. The bathtub doesn't get used much and even when it does there is no water or spillage onto said rocks. Aside from a few random hairs here and there they don't get moist or dirty. Any vacuum with a hose attachment would work fine for cleaning. If I really needed to I could easily load them up in a bucket for a gentle washing.
3. I'm not being weird about my toilet. YOU GUYS are being weird about my toilet. Its a loving toilet. In a tiny room. With some grey tile on the floor and unpainted walls. It's completely uninteresting.

My money is on twin grey cultured stone toilets with red seats resting on T (formerly I) joists, each surrounded by a gentle circle of pebbles and graced with its own chandelier.
