When you spend too much on appearances...
 

So... You've won it big play poker, or maybe you finally got that massive raise and promotion you've been vying for. Either way, you're looking for a new house to move into. You start going through MLS and because that site kinda sucks, you come across a house you think looks quite interesting... yet they only show one picture:

Curious, you decide to book an appointment to check it out. You figure... hey, it's only ten years old... the exterior looks quite interesting. It's got to look nice inside!

You pull up the driveway and notice the front entrance:

Okay, so maybe it needs a bit of landscaping. No big deal. The bonus will deal with that.

First impressions inside? Impressive architecture!

What's next? Okay, the kitchen. Eh, it looks a little small for a 44,000 square foot house but a closer inspection reveals a restaurant-grade kitchen hidden behind the first one. Weird, but okay...

And then... you turn around. And into another dimension. Want to check out the dining room?

Okay...

Yup, that's their dining room furniture. And that living room looks rocking as well.

Okay... well, maybe they're getting some furniture redone... or something.

Let's check out the rest of the house. Remember, it was built in 2003, so it should be all modern and shit.

Holy shit, this house is a time machine! You walk from the 21st century back into the 1970's! And it's not just the bathroom that somehow managed to be teleported forward over 30 years...

My eyes!



Suddenly spending that extra million on that villa up in Whistler is starting to sound pretty good.


Oh, for bonus marks... who can tell me what's wrong with this photo?

Moral of the story? Uhm... I'm not entirely sure, but this makes me feel how half of the houses in Richmond must look like inside... :lol jk

sucks we cant fail mods

Wow that hot tub is OLD SCHOOL

:failed:

its fine... we can direct fails at you :troll:

So.. crappy interior in an Abbotsford mansion makes you feel that half of Richmond are cheap bastards that care only about image?

Cool story bro.

hahahaha

i would be rolling on the floor laughing if i was given a tour of this house

the hot time machine

Maybe it's a time machine and threw up all over the house.

Nice description BTW

In other words.... We ran out of money, now we are in debt. Help us.

Clearly you missed the fact that it was a joke. ;)


Apart from that, I'd say the second half of my statement is more or less correct. :p

looks like all the furnishings were acquired through craigslist freebies section

what was wrong with the photo?

Whats not wrong with the photo?


Look at the fireplace.

You can reach an electrical plug from the bath tub, thats an instant building inspection fail.

IT'S BIG.

but UGLY as SHIT.

7 million for some house in Abbotsford?

l o l

Looks haunted.

no way that house is only 10 years old holy shit

wtfff... this is some really eerie twilight zone shit

this has gotta be a prank, there's no one who would have such fuckin weird furnishing in a house like that.. unless it was the butabi brothers on crack.

every single pic, i didn't know whether to laugh or cringe





oh and if it was built 10 years ago, how the hell did you get 2003????


all the jerking off affecting your math?

i'd spend MAX mill and a half or 2 mill on this place... considering its in abbotsford

i actually quite like the structure, its just the wtf furnishings and other outdated shit that bugs me, but with like a mill in rennovations, i think its an aight place

1-2 million dollar homes are actually pretty common in Abbotsford.

Its obvious why its furnished like that, the owners went bankrupt and can't afford to furnish their home or put the finishing touches on it. Thats hardly a rare event.

nice house

Lol sorta reminds me of the creepy pictures of mike tyson's abandoned mansion:

just cause its in abby doesnt mean its suddenly 5 times cheaper than vancouver.
