    That is a rejected insurance claim waiting to happen. I mean, imagine coming home to find out it had a hole and leaked all over the place while you were out.

      Something tells me these people don’t do insurance claims.

          This is so weird. In Norway, we have a TV show named “ikke gjør dette hjemme” or in English “don’t do this at home”. This German one looks oddly familiar considering where it was filmed, and how the guys present the things they do.
          Here’s an episode where they do the same things.

            Yes, according to Wikipedia, “nicht nachmachen!” (English: “don’t immitate!”) is the German adaption of the Norwegian original “ikke gjør dette hjemme”. Nice to see the original! Fortunately, it has six episodes instead of only two :-)

    Next you’ll be telling me that the neighbor installed a hot tub in his apartment and it ended up shorting out the building’s electricity, causing me to miss a very important alarm.

      If your alarm can’t survive a power outage, it’s not an important alarm.

      I set my bath pillow on fire once - while I was in the bath. I was well impressed with my quick thinking just to yank in down into the bathwater to put it out. My partner was too unimpressed with my stupidity/carelessness to appreciate my quick reflexes!

        What in the fuck could you possibly be doing where you find yourself in a situation where your pillow is on fire? While bathing?

        I’m with your partner on this one.

          Candles around the bath! One behind my head got a bit out of control and caught the bath pillow. It was made from something super flammable (or inflammable?) so it went up quickly. It singed a few hairs and the pillow was ruined, but no injuries or damage otherwise!

            super flammable (or inflammable?)

            Both mean the same thing! Thanks to the confusing English language, we have to use “non-flammable” to make it clear that something is NOT flammable/inflammable.

    Such heated indoor pools are sometimes used for hydrotherapy, where a storage or separate room is used just for the pool.

      Would this truly be the suggested set up though? An inflatable pool in your dining room? I used to have hydrotherapy until I found it too difficult to actually get there. They recommended warm baths, not that I DIY one in my house!

Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:

  • the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)

  • the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)

  • the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)

  • the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.

  • Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.

  • Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.

  • Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content

  • Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
  • Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
  • Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
