    These house flipping shows

    Why are they enjoyable?

    Partially it's fun watching skilled people practice a visual craft (renovation/decoration), partially there's a small amount of voyeurism in watching a couple fight over their priorities in housing.

    Yes I enjoy the "brittle people fighting each other" aspect

    it is just in the worst area too.

    i just realized it's going to go out of business in like 6 months like every decent authentic restaurant because everyone here is at the applebees unless they're celebrating at The Garden.

    Dude got eat goat.

    You can thank me later.

    Everything is so fake tho, like all the fights are staged completely, yet I still watch! Whyyyyy

    deep down you wish to settle down and have that white picket fence and 2.5 kids and argue about what to renovate first?

    Goddamn does my company's intranet suck.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    the "no true scotch man" fallacy.

    That's all the insight I have. I also go straight to HGTV when at a hotel. Or TLC if they have say yes to the dress, but basically nothing else at this point on that channel...

    You guys are so lucky. My town has a slightly iffy Chinese place that does Americanized Chinese food but at least is owned by a Chinese couple so the food isn't completely ruined by southern taste.

    And finally we got a decent pizza place.

    And that's it, the other restaurants are horrible. I have to drive into Florence just to get normally-mediocre American chain restaurant food.

    Speaking of gendered bathrooms I saw this today

    v50fiaycwr6q.jpeg

    This bathroom for strong, confident women striding forward and sassy men who just laid down a sick burn ONLY.

    I think that woman is pulling away from that man because he is a creep and also erecting a forcefield to keep him at bay.

    Clearly, this restroom is for sexually harassed mutants only.
    I was going to say... she must be wearing headphones, because that dude felt the need to approach her.

    When the machines take over do you want your fridge and its children to be disadvantaged compared to the other more evolved appliances?

    As someone who works in real estate they aren't. Not only are they mostly lies, they directly cause me to have to deal with idiots who watched one of those and then gets into my industry.

    Tell me about the lies!

    The prices they quote are ridiculous for one. Like they claim they can turn around a house for like double its listing cost in a month or whatever? Yeah no fucking way. Also they frequently price a house out of the neighborhood its in (not all of the flip shows do, but a lot of them do), so even if there was a buyer for the area they couldn't afford it.

    Obviously some markets are different from others, but much like Storage wars when you see them pulling pie in the sky "worth" numbers, know its complete bullshit.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    someone told me today that the top reason for people purchasing IoT stuff in homes is 'peace of mind'

    so I guess they want to feel like, if their fridge goes out, it'll notify them so that their freezer doesn't flood or ruin their food or whatever
