Correct.
Or, its a print or knock-off (i thought the original paintings are pretty huge?).
I'd say get some paints and make your own custom knock-off!

I am reading the zombie survival guide.
Ideal house would be on stilts with a set of retractable (attic style) stairs.
also.. when fighting zombies, you will want a crossbow and a machete. guns are too loud and will attract more zombies.

"fill them with $100 worth of candy"?
that's either really expensive candy, or listerine strips taken out of the package, which would be really crappy candy.

I thought the same thing as SDE.
I don't frequent a whole lot of (interior)design site.. so its really annoying when AT has the same content as the others.

the idea that the "rotator rod" is in this "design showcase" is baffling.
While it may have lots of FUNCTION.. it has pretty much no FORM as far as "design" goes. Its a shower rod. it might have a trick up it's sleeve.. but its still just a shower rod. looks like a shower rod. it belongs on an infomercial, not a design site.

"beautiful midcentury home with tons of potential".. uhh.. probably not. I live in the northwest and most houses that look like that are pretty shitty. also, does anyone read the actual post? they built this house on the existing foundation.
haters gonna hate.

No love for the giant plastic crayons that stephanie and dj had in their room on full house? HOW RUDE!
that show was so ahead of it's time interior design-wise.

but seriously.. just buy normal size stuff and do drugs instead.

Surprisingly.. national geographic makes some really nice backpack style bags that have camera and laptop compartments. plus, they don't look like camera bags.

portland seems about right.
im thinking maybe the rent prices are for houses? or perhaps apartments with actual rooms...
something I know nothing about.

semi-related.
my sister got me a furby for christmas a few years ago (i asked for a furby and pogs, just to be annoying).
the furby stayed in my trunk for a few months.. you could hear him crying when the car came to a stop.
then i brought him inside and he just complained about needing hugs.

i tried out the new Method laundry detergent (small ultra-concentrated bottle with a pump).. it seems like a good enough detergent..
however, when carrying everything back up to my apartment, the bottle leaked detergent all over my clean clothes.

LAME. and wouldn't a measuring cup lid use less plastic AND be cheaper to make.. and not leak all over everything?
