Contractor: how do you want the bathroom done?

Customer: basically, whenever I go in, I want to be wondering whether I’m drunk or on drugs.

Contractor: say no more.

The taste is questionable, but whoever actually did the tiling has done a brilliant job.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 26 points 10 months ago

I would call the taste "unique" instead of "questionable" but unfortunately that also means "hard to sell"

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Yes back in the Reddit days we had a sub called "awful taste but great execution" Edit We have it here too

[–] jlow@beehaw.org 4 points 10 months ago

Yeah, without knowing anything about tiling if these are real tiles they did an amazing job.

When you need to obscure your bathrooms range, speed and heading from a ww2 battleship or submarine.

Hit em with the old razzle dazzle, eh?

I'm not convinced that 70s porn mags would help you if the Scharnhorst was bearing down on you.

[–] FatLegTed@feddit.uk 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You could come and go at the same time.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Like some sort of Karma Chameleon?

It’s very "90s Xtreme!"

Everything had to be wild for no reason.

I want my bathroom to look like the intro to saved by the bell

[–] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 16 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

There's a 50% chance that a full panoramic photo that doesn't have a Grind House Porn filter would make this bathroom actually look decent, or at minimum, not bad.

[–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Oh, I think it's upstairs in the rathbroom

[–] PlasmaDistortion@lemm.ee 13 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I can understand the tiles, but why are the lights angled? It would blind anyone trying to use the sink!

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I mean you just need to angle yourself and all will be fine.

[–] r_13@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

It's designed for people staggering in with a hangover, to help make them feel more normal.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

To make certain they really can't walk straight.

[–] rayquetzalcoatl@feddit.uk 11 points 10 months ago

Honestly, I love this. I think it's fun!

[–] apis@beehaw.org 10 points 10 months ago

Love it really. Would never have this done but if I ended up with this place I'd keep the bathroom.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

1986 wants its bathroom back.

[–] FullOfBallooons@leminal.space 8 points 10 months ago

I'm losing my balance just looking at this.

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 7 points 10 months ago

The white tiles are actually correct, the rest of the house is actually tilting over.

Is this part of one of those Mystery Spots where "laws of physics cease to exist"?

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

There were a lot of drugs being used in the 80's.

Can confirm.

I went to a house showing where the owner made extremely questionable choices and when I asked "What were you smoking?" The guy answered that he indeed did a lot of drugs and now is too lazy to fix it.

I actually love this. In case I'm ever remodeling my bathroom, Imma save this so I can find it again. Thanks!

The bathroom form of Insane, Insane Again by The J. Geils band. The "Relax, relax!" bit plays during a soak in the tub.

Thank you for this! Keep them coming!
