The Walls Are Rejecting Their Paper

Nov. 16, 2010

funny real estate - The Walls Are Rejecting Their Paper

“I can’t take it any more!” shouted the wall. “I need to be free!” And with that it threw off its wallpaper, tossed the curtains onto the floor, and ran naked down the street.

Loveliest comment, by LMA: It absolutely looks like a colorized etching of the deathbed of fill-in-the-name-of-your-favorite-old-timey-President moments after said President’s body was hauled away in a horse-drawn hearse. Someone will bring in an embroidered sampler to “Antiques Roadshow” all sewn up in faded yarns depicting this scene and a carefully cross-stitched alphabet over it and the appraiser will say: “this is based on a famous etching of the Deathbed of President XXX and was sewn by a twelve year old girl, as you can see from the signature below, who attended Girls Finishing Academy in New Bedford, Connecticut. In the current condition, it’s worth about $25,000-$27,000 on the retail market. It’s a splendid piece and I thank you for bringing it in today.”

I Watch You While You Sleep

funny real estate - I Watch You While You Sleep

The strangest thing? The woman who lives in this house has no idea how the wallpaper border got there. One evening she came home from work and it was just there.

Loveliest comment, by Elastic (but don’t miss JMixx’s reply to Vivian): This is obviously another remnant culled from the now discontinued line of the exclusive Stuart Smalley wallpaper collection.

The border in my bathroom reads “Gosh Darn It, People Like You” because sometimes I need that little bit of reassurance after rendering the bathroom practically unusable after a wild night out at Pancho’s Mexican Buffet…….

Are You Gonna Go My Wallpaper?

Oct. 13, 2010

This might be Lenny Kravtiz’s greatest atrocity since his “American Woman” — a line of wallpaper with Brooklyn-based Flavor Paper. It’s looks like you’re staring into the worst record covers from the 90s.

Well I suppose this one is less offensive, making “American Woman” officially worse. He can blame Heather Graham’s involvement for that.

Iron butterflies

Oh no! The weight of the butterflies caused the house sink into the ground until only the roof remained visible. How tragic.

Loveliest comment, by jim-bob: This house is located in Gulf Breeze, Florida. Now, for those of you who have never heard of it, it was the location of a rash of UFO sightings a few years ago. An A frame is sort of like a pyramid, so this house was obviously built and furnished by aliens looking to use it’s pyramidal shape and butterfly wallpaper to induce a mind control vortex and take over the local population. Sadly, the aliens did not have the greatest of credit due to their lack of employment history on this planet, and ended up getting a sub-prime loan with an adjustable rate. it wound up getting foreclosed on by a force greater than their technology- the collapse of the US economy. Thus we see it offered here, waiting to be used by a new owner in their quest for world domination.

And this, boys and girls, is why we don’t paint the walls when we have the hiccoughs.

Funny Real Estate - Disco Hause

I want — slup! — to say something about — slup! — this house, but — slup! — every time I try to look at — slup! — the wallpaper, my — slup! — eyes just slide down off it. Slup! So shiny. So metallic. Slup!

Loveliest comment, by glory von hathor: I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years.
But the wallpaper pattern would awake me,
Cray-cray pattern made of fears.

Acting Funny And I Don't Know Why

I know how it is. You finally buy a home and you’re so excited to paint the walls — finally! your own color choice! — no more Sherman Willams Rental White!

…but I’m not certain that Dannon Blueberry Low-Fat is the best replacement, sweetie.

Loveliest comment, by tacomagic: Taken out of the wild, the lone China Cabinet tries to utilize it’s camoflage against the wall. Unfortunately for him, he has picked a poor spot to use his camoflage, and he can easily be observed. However, oblivious to his blunder, his natural behavior can be easily observed here.

As you can see, by remaining motionless for hour or even days, the China Cabinet slowly allows prey to become acclimatized to his presence before he eventually strikes. An ambush preditor of exceeding patience and cunning. In this setting however, his camoflage proves to be inadequate and his prey has already fled. There will be no meal for this cabinet today.
