I am probably not a hipster (nor, thank you very much, an oldster), but really and truly, I wouldn't want any of this stuff. OK that shaving set might work, but I don't need it. And the iPhone speaker, but don't rush out and find one. Otherwise who the *bleep* wants any of this. Gifts for the Modern Male Hipster Apartment Therapy Gift Guide 2012 |

What is with these lists? You get what you need when you need it. Or you buy that little kit at Ikea (or get it as a present from some nervous Nelly parent). Who uses Allen wrenches anyway? The Renter's Toolkit: 15 Must Have Essentials |

When you call your provider, make sure you document what they tell you. The people in customer service don't always give correct advice. ATT told my sigo what to do to avoid charges and we ended up with like $200 due for a few hours in Paris. They were good enough to waive this with the purchase of a plan, but when she got to Africa suddenly her phone started roaming even with roaming turned off. I managed to suspend network service (still allowing wifi) and haggle with ATT about the bill. The Smartphone Travel Tips Checklist |

given the new reduced luggage limits (e.g. 23kg to Europe), there should be plenty of nice used luggage around. Best of Etsy: Vintage Luggage (Plus Tips for Using Old Suitcases at Home) |

Yup, that San Francisco Bay Area map is the bees' knees. I could be peevish and suggest that the parts of the map where the word "wonderful" is printed are less wonderful than others. But I won't. Celebrating City Patriotism: Civicism? Urbism? Parochialism? |

So sorry to burst your bubble. Even the before picture is not ugly. Dated perhaps, but not ugly. This is not an ugly condo. You have to go way further than this to every hope to find the condo that was truly hit by the ugly stick. Ugly? Not even slightly. Not a prayer. As far as all the commentors on your contractors' shortcomings, just moon them. That's right, flaunt it. As long as YOU like it, it's all that matters.
