Listings, red in tooth and claw

Dec. 15, 2008




Oh, my. I’m about as far from a raw vegan as you can get while still having opposable thumbs, but still I do not find dead little glassy eyeballs and bloody guts to be appealing.

Found by Kristin; found by Annie.

Even more help is on the way

What’s that? You were getting cold while playing the piano outside? Don’t worry — Hanne found a fireplace to keep you warm.

Telling, but not in a good way

What does this photo tell us about the house? That it has a floor? Perhaps that it’s wired for electricity? That people have slept here?

(Found by Cynthia.)

Have fun selling the castle!

If you were going to have one photo in a listing, would this be it? Yes? It would? Well, all right then.

Found by Charlene, who says “it’s probably easy to defend which, given the neighbourhood, isn’t a bad thing, but don’t most people want a front window?”

This listing — found by Terry & Shauna — confuses me. The images are on a website, so at some point someone had access to technology beyond a photocopier.

Someone must have taken the photographs, made photocopies of them, and then… put the copies in a scanner? Taken digital photos of them? Stuffed them into the CD drive? Held them up to the monitor and said “These ones, computer! Put these ones up on the Internet!”

Squeak!

Jul. 23, 2008

Jennifer found this little cutie (no, not the house). “It’s disturbing enough that all of the photos in the listing are just different angles of the outside of the house, but you also apparently get a free ‘pet.’” Just what I wanted!
