I hope it's not haunted.


Well done!  Really cool looking

I'm never going to own a home because I can't afford to.

That's an all-around cool, unique-looking house. The roof is extremely steep. Are the ceilings really high?

Oh no, the attic is on top! And that's a picture from an estate agent's site, which ruins any uniquity by looking a lot like every other house.


The Irish suburban house? Yea, that place is depressing. I should have been more clear....I was talking about Pizza Monster's house being cool and unique-looking. Mostly by comparison to most houses around where I live, which pretty much fit John H's description.

I was thinking that too! It looks like churchy.

All this talk about things being haunted (in here and in the um, other discussion) is making me lament the death of Robert Stack even more.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

actually, in Oklahoma these types of houses are kind of a rare thing.  All my buddies have moved to the suburbs and live in these kind of urban sprawl type neighborhoods with track homes, the whole thing kind of makes me sick.  Luckily, I've got a wife who agrees and who doesn't mind living in kind of a bohemian area (bohemian for OK City at least)
Maybe Wayne Coyne lives nearby?

Wayne lives about 9 blocks south in the Ghetto portion in a HUGE 50's style art deco mansion that is not too impressive from the street, but is freaking huge if you really look at it.

Buck up, buddy. The real estate market finally seems to be deflating:

If you work hard and save harder, you might be living in an old Tower Records in a few years.
