So Realistic! I Can Smell the Coconut Air Freshener!

funny real estate - So Realistic! I Can Smell the Coconut Air Freshener!

So you might be thinking this is bad trompe l’oeil in the photo above. It is not bad trompe l’oeel. It is good tromp l’oil.  Here, from a house on the other side of the globe, is bad trampe l’ouil:

Yes, it’s realistic, but is it desirable? No, it is not, and that is why it is bad tromp l’oull.

At least I hope it’s tromp l’oeil. Because if it isn’t, it means that somebody is actually selling a house that looks like that… nah. That’s crazy talk. Tramp l’oil it is!

P.S. Because I am nothing if not helpful: tromp looey.

Loveliest comment, by Stuart: I think what amazes me the most about these is that the roadrunner can go right through them yet the coyote always gets his face smashed.
