Egret Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hmmm... is there a downside to it? Not if you have a job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukon Cornelius Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The house is actually in a good school district and is close to shopping and the highway. Perhaps when I get back to Michigan, I should put a bid in on it. The clock has to stay with the house though. were i live that would be 275 to 300 easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiley Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The clock has to stay with the house though. You should wear it around your neck if you win the bid. Flavorrrrrr Flavvvvvvvv - Yeahhhhhhhh Boyyyyeeeeeeee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I'm elitist because I think it is dumb to spend $10,000 on a television projector screen so big that it would be almost impossible to comfortably watch it in the room that you put it in? Or because I call BS when somebody calls their shrubs "professionally landscaped" in an attempt to make them sound better than they really are? Or because I think Big Ben belongs in a clock-tower in London instead of on a living room wall? Nevermind, I figured it out... I am an elitist because I am looking at homes in the $180,000 price range. You got me. No, you're critiquing landscaping as "Home Depot" and not professional from a few blurry pictures, and insinuating that Home Depot is not up to your standards. That led me to my elitist comment. You came across as quite an elitist, condescending prick, for a moment I thought I was reading an Az post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 What's wrong with Home Depot? I'm guessing wiegie grows everything cultivated from seedlings found in a virgin forest with his own urine and spit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Home Depot is one of the greatest inventions since soap on a rope Nowhere else can you buy a sledge hammer , log splitter , shower curtains , big bags of mulch , work bench , pond filter , ceiling fan and then rent their truck to drive the stuff home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The only think that "jumped" out at me was that there were several cases where they had big rooms with small groupings of furniture ... horrible use of space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That led me to my elitist comment. You came across as quite an elitist, condescending prick, for a moment I thought I was reading an Az post. Amusingly, I actually have three hours of college credit in "landscape management" -- so my comment was not elitist... merely educated.

TimC Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Typical German thinking he's better than the rest of us. What's next? Killing all the plants you don't agree are up to your standards....like those that are grown at Wal-Mart and K-Mart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Cid Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 So I'm the only person who thinks having a $10,000 home entertainment system in a $180,000 home is out of line (combined with the fact that the entertainment system has a 16x9 foot screen in a room that forces people to be within about 10 feet of the screen when looking at it)? You cannot spend too much money on your home entertainment system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yo mama Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 well, that and the giant clock (well, and the fact that it seems that they consider "professional landscaping" to consist of having some day-laborers plant some shrubs that you bought at Home Depot) but, yeah, that is pretty much it I found the same things to be wrong with the place. That, and for $179,000 I can pretty much guarantee that the house is located in some suck-ass place I'd never want to live in the first place.
