NFSWednesday: Lofty Ambitions

May. 11, 2011

funny real estate - Lofty Ambitions

Ooh! It’s like Wii Table Tilt, but with an actual chance of broken limbs! Totally worth it just to avoid the disappointed, judgmental Wii balance board.

NFSWednesday: One Way Up, One Way Down

May. 4, 2011

funny real estate - One Way Up, One Way Down

Oh good Lord I want this. There are just two problems: a) my kids are strictly “Up the Down staircase” kind of people, and b) I live in a rambler. Other than that, I’m totally there.

NFSWednesday: Play us a Song, You’re the Piano House

Apr. 13, 2011

funny real estate - China Brings the Music

No! You may not move into Piano House, for today is Wednesday and this house is Not For Sale. And perhaps not even a house, as I’m having problems tracking down information about it. More (not much more) here. Original story here. Amusing but awesome if you stop to think about it translation here.

Then I was curious about Huainan, the Chinese town where this building is located, so I went to a local site here, and learned that Huainan hosts this:

Imagine the stage is a boat, a boat full of joy and happiness down the wind and in full sail, at the time, this boat is drifting towards our energy resources city—Huainan, a place full of vitality and hope, as well as the earth abundant in treasures and experiencing the shift of four seasons. Who bears the weight of this boat? Its nearly 20 thousand live audiences, who are inspired by passion, and its Huainan people with the population of over 2.40 million who are confident of the future, meanwhile, it’s the 3000 guests in and abroad, and its over 500 business merchants, and the last but not the least, is the Chinese Bean-curd Cultural Festival.

Bean-curd Cultural Festival! Buildings shaped vaguely like musical instruments! Sounds like my kinda place! Or so I thought until I kept on clicking along through the website of the People’s Government of Huainan, as one does, and came to this:

I may have accidentally stumbled on to some web equivalent of a numbers station. I think it’s best if we all just slowly close our browser windows and pretend we saw nothing.

NFSWednesday: Kids? What Kids? I Just Got More Space in My Manhattan Apartment!

Mar. 16, 2011

funny real estate - Kids? What Kids? I Just Got More Space in My Manhattan Apartment!

This woman built a frikkin’ indoor treehouse for her daughter’s first bed. My daughter? Her first bed — and this is absolutely true — was a cardboard box from Costco.

Parenting: I’m doing it wrong. But hey, we emptied the box first. And recycled it when she outgrew it.

NFSWednesday: Hobbes on a Limb

Mar. 9, 2011

funny real estate - Hobbes on a Limb

Know what? My kids were teeny babies once, too, and I also thought Calvin and Hobbes made fine reading material. They laugh, I laugh, everybody’s happy.

And then the teeny babies grow up a bit. And then suddenly comics about hyperactive six-year-olds who are in constant trouble at school, cause hundreds of dollars of damage to the house in a single day, are notorious throughout the neighborhood, and seem to live in a slightly different (albeit much better) reality than you do just aren’t quite as funny as they once were.

Enjoy it while you can, guys.
