The Best Roof in Secesh

It’s a frikkin’ roof, okay? And it’s still a roof. It’s just a slightly lower roof, which makes it easier to clean the gutters and retrieve Frisbees. You should be glad the roof is like this. You should pay extra.

Aww, the generations are gathering together at their retreat in Idaho. Wood-burning Stove is showing Propane Stove how WBS likes to arrange supplies; Electric Coffee Pot is talking shop with Campfire Coffee Pot.

Not shown in this photo: Indoor Toilet, who has taken a stroll out to shoot the… er… pass the time with Outhouse.

Found by: me

Loveliest comment, by mudslicker: I like this one better. “The retreat can house a nice B&B business up until crash time.” *whiskey tango foxtrot* Nothing says “big bummer” to your bed and breakfast like the Apocalypse.

Castle Stairpool!

One one hand, climbing up all those stairs to go to my turret bedroom would be annoying. On the other hand, every morning I could start the day diving down the staircase into a plunge pool. I’ll take it!

Found by: Sandra. This castle is in the Principality of Idaho and will set you back a cool two and a half mil.

Loveliest comment, by Erin: Wow. Now I just need to find $2.5 million. By the power of Stairpool!

Mais non! you say. Surely this clipping, as seen on Fail Blog, is not really from a listing. And I can see why you might think that… but in a world where this made it to the MLS, anything is possible.

Yes We Can

Welcome to our new quiz: Hipster or Survivalist? It beats me; everyone’s making pickles. The not-at-all-artisanal bread makes me suspect there are a lot of leftover Y2K rations under the beds, but I’m so very out of touch with what the young people are doing these days.

This 30-acre farm in Idaho was found by me. It’ll set you back $185,000, a price that makes me cry.

Can I Install a Toll Booth?

So you’re looking for a house in Plummer, Idaho? Have I got a deal for you! This “single family” home, as per the listing, is a roomy 42,000 square feet. And check out those high ceilings! $200,000 seems a bit steep for northern Idaho, but you’ll save on air conditioning — this house stays cool all summer long — and you won’t have to budget a single penny for curtains. Make Plummer your new home today!

Peek-a-boo!

Another disturbing find by John from Portland. “Why did they want the deck raised?” he asks. “Planning on a 2nd floor someday? Peek in the neighbor’s hot tub?”
