Lovely Listing

Swordfish Interrogation Room

Funny-Real Estate-Photos-Swordfish Interrogation Room

“Alright, buddy. We know your associates had something to do with Steve Irwin’s death. Out with it: who’s behind it all? The Yushin Maru? Talk!”

Yes yes, stingray, I know, but I haven’t found any real estate listings with stingrays being questioned. And I’m obsessed with Whale Wars and will take any chance I get to work it into a post (or conversation). Neener neener it’s my blog and I can do that. So long as my LOLcat overlords don’t take the keys away. Please don’t take the keys away.

    If they ever took away the keys, I would … do something. I’m not very good at coming up with appropriate protests, but it would happen and it would be striking!

    Also, plaid carpet!

  2. Madness says:

    I posted too quickly. If you go to the actual listing, at first, it doesn’t seem that odd, but then, there are four pictures of nearly identical rooms (certainly all bedrooms) all with different paint color, but windows in the same place. Of course, the pictures are centered on the impressive corner of the rooms, as per usual in real estate listings.

    I do like the Halloween-colored bar seating, though. Festive!

    We used to play Yard Darts with these but Bobby lost the rest of the set. :S

  4. Vivian says:

    To me it looks like the Highland Regiment is preparing for a seafood feast.

  5. Bring in the California Highway Patrol to play “Good Cop, Bad Cop”…

    Then you’ll have…Fish and CHiPs.

    I slay myself. :-D

    Poor Swordfish. He has to sleep on the table for fear of puncturing that air mattress upstairs.

  7. PHOTO 10! PHOTO 10! ROBOT FIREPLACE FACE ALERT!!!

    is it me, or is the plaid floor also on an incline? after taking a few awkward steps on “optical illusion carpet”, i’m pretty sure i’d fall on my face.

    • Quark says:

      It looks like the room is in the basement, so there might be a slight angle to the floor. But the camera is also be at an angle. There is also a conceealed pipe in the left corner of the room. Hard to say.

  9. Quark says:

    I like this place – 11 rooms + bedrooms with a built-in bar with the stripy black/orange theme – though I’m not quite sure how you make you use of such a room. Do you mix your own drinks, get your partner to work as a barmaid/steward or do you hire some bar staff?

  10. Tony Paul says:

    This is what happens when you don’t store your Damien Hirst installations correctly.

  12. Quark says:

    Does anyone get the impression that the walls and floor in that room could start sliding together at any moment?

  13. Angel says:

    I thought that Swordfish torture was banned under the Geneva Convention…

  14. Andy B says:

    Anyone else reminded of Twin Peaks? “Oh, that fell.”

  15. Dawne says:

    Apparently there’s a law that these horrid split-level-entry type places have to have the basement thoroughly wood paneled. I’m sitting in one right now.

  16. 98oktan says:

    Is it just me or does the swordfish room look like the old Wolfenstein games? You know, like, huge rooms without any furniture?

  17. The One Guy says:

    In Finneytown, fitting.
