I legit want to know why he was going to sink the tub, please inquiring minds want to know.

You have a good attitude moving forward.

It would drive me absolutely bonkers, knowing that simply asking an internet forum about my plan ahead of time, could have saved me something like $20k. I couldn't handle that.

If I was buying a house with a bathroom like this I'd ask for like 40k knocked off the price for when I had to gut it and put in a usable cleanable bathroom.

We keep sales people honest and demo tech to prospective clients. Apparently we are a pain in the rear end to support? I am in Infosec, which makes me the worst.

90% of the time these all-glass bathrooms are overlooking the water though, which means anyone in a boat can peep your dilz.

Time for some

Since I have some time before I'll ever get to the point of actually installing my bathtub, I put together a mock mold garden to see how well it grows in my bathroom. I splashed it with a bit of water and will let it fester for a while. Will update as spores progress.

Those are the rocks? You couldn't get some shinier ones?

Also I can see getting up to go to the bathroom at 4 am and stepping on an errant rock that has been kicked into the middle of the room and lol.

bEatmstrJ posted:

Those are not the rocks. These are just test rocks. I'd probably go with some smoother and more uniform river rock. But it was what they had available at Home Depot when I went.

I'm a woman and while I don't speak for all women, nothing about that bathroom suits the way I'd want to use the space even ignoring the aesthetic side of things.

I like as much natural light as possible for putting on my makeup, and just waking myself up in the morning, and you boarded up a window. The dark gray stone and red paint are also going to soak up all the artificial light and make the bathroom dank and cave-like, so hard to see what I'm doing.

The tub is awkwardly-placed and has nowhere but that tiny notch in the wall to store soaps, oils, grooming tools, or the book, wine, and music player I'd need to have a properly girly soak.

The shower is cavernous, and thus would be freezing unless you had both showerheads going, there's again nowhere to store anything, and like a lot of women I prefer a removable showerhead so I can clean my body without getting my hair wet, because drying and setting it is a pain in the rear end I like to save for shampoo days. You've got a sort of bench thing I think that might be workable for shaving your legs on, but it forces you to stand in the path of the shower, meaning your shaving soap is going to constantly rinse off while you're working, not to mention your hair's getting wet again.

The sinks, again, no storage space, no clear flat workspace for laying out hot tools, makeup, and cosmetics. If that low part in between is meant to be the vanity, it's cramped and has no mirror, no lighting, and only one electrical socket, which is frequently not enough when I've got a blow-dryer going, a flat iron heating up, and I want to charge my phone.

I don't see anywhere to store towels or robes either.

Some girls are definitely a lot more wash-and-go than I am, but the fact that you're thinking of wooing a woman with a luxury bathroom makeover in the first place means you probably go for a traditional type of girl. Traditional girls tend to need bathroom storage and a place to plug in their hot rollers.

Sorry about the unfair role I played in our home-buying process, dear.

No. He's just a moron that works in sales. He's the type that thinks he's all 'enlightened' and can do or say nothing wrong. Because we're calling him out on his bullshit, this is no longer a safe space for his opinions and thus because he's also a coward he runs away in a huff because he fears having to face up to his own convictions.

It's like he thought he was smart enough to do his own renovations but so far we've seen a lack of GFCIs, cuts into engineered floor joists, and in another case junction boxes that are inaccessible in addition to suspect wiring. He defends it all because being that he's in his late 30s and has nothing to account for in his life other than this house, any attempt to show that he is doing the one thing he has going "right" in his life as anything otherwise is an affront to his fragile ego.

IDGAF about OP's wack-rear end DJ career, I wanna talk about how his only aesthetic reference points for luxury appear to be mid-priced hotel chains and the car stereo department at Best Buy.

My bathroom is tiny and sad, which is why this thread makes me so angry.

Tiny Brontosaurus posted:

This is dumb too. Nobody needs to post pictures of their homes to prove they know en suite mold farms are a bad idea.

FoldableHuman posted:

This thread has taught me so much. Moss bathmats. Suspended bathglobes. Three-story rain showers. And here all I want is a tub that's about 4" deeper than the one I have.

Also I had to get a suction-cup soap tray because the ~aesthetic~ placement of the in-wall soap tray leaves water from the shower pouring right over the soap. This takes my fancy bar soap and turns it into a soap-stalactite hanging from the drainage hole in the dish.

OP: post the mold
