The high ceilings add to the open and airy ambiance, while the living room takes center stage with a stripper pole for entertainment and a 10-person hot tub, perfect for relaxing or hosting unforgettable gatherings.

They're sex people.

I know, but in the kitchen. Really. There's sanitary issues.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It is only theoretically a kitchen:

The kitchen, while cozy, is functional and ideal for preparing quick meals.

I'd suggest you reframe your thinking - that's the main sex room with somewhere to prepare intercoital snacks.

They needed a kitchen to meet the conditions of occupancy permit.

I'm more concerned about the acoustic issues to be honest.

And really just the complete unsexiness of this space on every level

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think you're forgetting just how much porn is set in a kitchen!

The house that Dogecoin built.

This building was designed to make a statement and that statement is "I have tech money." A detail that jumped out at me is the garage is connected to the kitchen via a large glass door; the cars parked therein are meant to be part of the decor of the house.

The state of the place makes another statement, and that statement is "I very suddenly don't have tech money anymore." The building itself looks 99.9% finished, there's some wires hanging out of a wall in one picture which makes me think there should have been another television installed or something, and work on the yard was abandoned pretty early on. I doubt the guy who ordered this monstrosity has spent a single afternoon here before his stocks collapsed and/or he went to jail for wire fraud or something. Seller is a tech brosn't.

I did think maybe young athlete.

Not planning on having kids any time soon, more money than they really know what to do with, basketball hoop IN the garage, lots of screens...

For when you just gotta relax in a hot tub while watching a movie while your strippers dance on a pole and cook you dinner by the light of a chandelier and you also need rapid access to your small aircraft that fits in your garage.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure that garage is designed to house and display 2 to 4 exotic cars. The big plate glass doors into the kitchen say to me "I wanna be able to see my Ferrari from the hot tub."

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

It’s so the “companion” can see the exotic cars while she’s riding the guy in the hot tub and remind herself why she’s suffering through this ordeal, keeping focused on the large cash payout and continuing to pretend enjoying what she’s doing.

Is no one going to mention the horrific slip risk on that marble tile? Stepping on that with wet feet is a TBI waiting to happen

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

my first thought was "oh joys finally i can crack open my skull outside of the bathroom!"

Not to mention the gap between the Jacuzzi and the floor - someone's going to trip and break a leg!

Is that a stripper pole on the middle?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I was literally just thinking that. Must've been built by a rich guy who likes maids and twitch streamers

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I mean I'd be up for entertainment from maids and twitch streamers...

But I also wouldn't create this grand room of hazards with the hopes of paying some of those women to entertain me. Seems excessive.

Actually, now that I think about it more, its weird to me that anyone would actually be entertained by whatever it is the designer was hoping to accomplish here. If it were me, I'd be far to paranoid someone would slip and die, or the inevitable flying booze would ignite on the stove. And to add to it, what is that entertaining about watching maids and twitch streamers do whatever this guy was thinking? Did he lose his dick so this is the closest thing he can get to what he used to feel with a woman?

And now that I'm done thinking about that I'm realizing the answer is far more obvious: cocaine. It's the cocaine.

The Zillow description straight up calls it a stripper pole.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

is the stripper pole load bearing?

also if i didn’t know any better i would say that thing in front of the pool is a folding bed so the room also counts as one of the spacious bedrooms they advertise on zillow. but it’s hard to tell even with the listing and the additional photos. one benefit of the listing is seeing that the other massive room is an indoor basketball court though.

That may depend on the user.

Looks like a mechanically deployed cover for the hot tub to me

Jakscuse me?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

It’s wild that this room is basically the entire living space. There are two small bedrooms and bathrooms, and then this. They list the kitchen separately but if I’m interpreting the dimensions correctly it’s a 20x24 foot room with a kitchenette, a stripper pole, and a ten-person hot tub. And 8 TVs, 6 of them in the middle of the main window, although I suspect they might be photoshopped in.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No one even commenting on the bathroom. Three miles of countertop for two sinks. A giant bathtub nook with an expensive but rather small tub.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Yeah, Im 40 years old. Im not doing my coke off the toilet seat anymore I have dignity. And back problems.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

That is by far the worst use of 2,000+ sqft I’ve ever seen.

And I’m actively house hunting for around that size, so I’ve seen some… interesting spaces.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Someone who has never cooked a meal designed that kitchen

A basketball hoop in the garage? A kitchen with cabinets so high up you'll need a ladder? And only $1.5 million dollars!

You obviously don't sous vide much.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I've brought up some of my issues in other comments, but here's the rest of them:

  • The front door doesn't feel centered and the side panel really bothers me.

  • Why do I need a massive clear wall into the garage?

  • The jutting, unfinished bricks on the interior walls is just asking for people to scrape themselves on it.

  • Those are relatively low doorknobs combined with abnormally tall doors.

  • In the bathroom: why put the faucet for the tub there, where it blocks easy access to that big space by the wall?

  • Why do you have such massive bathroom sinks, with the faucets struck way off into a tiny corner of them? Is it for doing the laundry, because there isn't a washer/dryer shown anywhere, and I didn't see a hookup for one, either.

  • The second bathroom sinks seem more reasonable, but the pics of the second bathroom seem to leave part of the room out.

  • It's such a comparatively small bedroom for such a large place.

  • They're not showing the inside of the closets, which makes me think they're very small. Or maybe they just forgot them.

  • Literally half of the house is a drive-through garage!

  • The little house to the left is also included on the property. There aren't any pictures of the inside, possibly due to what looks like a collapsed roof.

And going back to comments I made elsewhere, but which still bother me:

Why is there a gap around the edge of the Jacuzzi? Someone's going to break their leg!

AND WHERE IS THE REFRIGERATOR?!

Swinger house.

A group owned it for fucking.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's new construction.

This is an AirBnB party house. No one who owns this will ever spend a night there.

It's like a 90s kid designed it so the hot lady could get the pizza rolls out of the microwave swing on the pole and serve it to them in the hot tub 🤣

Except it needs a lot more colors and jagged shapes on the walls.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Why does it look like CGI? Hell, it looks like a Second Life house with that stripper pole. Just needs more couches and chairs.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (3 children)

The lighting is impossibly even and nothing is casting a shadow. Gives it that uncanny 2000s video game feel where textures got pretty good but most engines still didn't have much in the way of dynamic lighting.

Hot tub streamers optimal space

Two things, the echo in that room would be beyond horrid, also I think the tv is not high enough .... :/

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

I see a lot of theories here but, if we're honest about it, there's no making sense of this.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

AI generated house? Also, nice garden...

I don't know man, I could put in a roast and then wait in the jacuzzi for a couple of hours.

There's no space for a fridge. I see an outlet on the wall but why would you not made a space for it.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Just pop in some cupboards ten feet in the air in case the fucking Harlem Globetrotters come round for a bath and a poledance.
