    I don’t know man. I see this as a genius move on their part. Everyone knows the approximate size of a double bed, and I can’t think of a better way to show scale for the rooms picked for this post.

      Plus the fact that it was reasonably practical to haul that bed around speaks to spacious passage ways

        This landlord has a sense of humor, which is a very reassuring sign.

          Was there consent though? I don’t know how comfortable I am knowing the trauma the double bed has to go through with it’s shower pic everywhere online

            No worries. It was covered up with sheets, indicating a degree of consent

        I think in the shower one the bed is redundant since it looks like a standard size toilet, sink, and bath, and people can tell the size of those by looking at them. The bed just guarantees no bamboozle.

    I’m thinking at least the landlord is probably pretty cool.

      Sure, until you keep coming home to find your bed in a different room.

        That’s not the landlord, that’s the carbon monoxide.

      Yes, and I get a warm feeling seeing our little Lemmy has grown up enough to have it! It’s like when your kid discovers knock-knock jokes.

      Editing to add, my own kids have recently finished moving out. I want to replace the 2 twin beds crowded into their room with one queen futon-onna-frame the cat and I can use as a sofa, and one of them can share with a significant other if they visit or have to move back in for awhile. Recommend or warn me about particular brands you’ve slept/fucked on?

        They’ll fuck on anything; they’ll just be grateful that you acknowledge that they fuck.

        I encourage you to consider day beds instead of a futon! Granted I’ve only had a crappy one but it wasn’t a comfortable bed or couch they are sorta the worst of both worlds. In a daybed you can have the best of both worlds of an actual mattress and it being a couch. I’m pretty sure I’ve slept on this one before and what’s nice is they put a memory foam or foam topper over it when the bed was extended so you didn’t notice a crease from the two mattresses. Idk what they did with the topper when it was couch mode maybe just folded it in half. I could try finding out if you want.

        Or get an actual pull out sofa. If price is an issue though daybeds have about as variation in price as futons when I last did my research.

Posting guidelines.

Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:

  • the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)

  • the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)

  • the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)

  • the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.

  • Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.

  • Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.

  • Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content

Rules.

This community follows the rules of the feddit.uk instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:

  • Be civil, remember the human.
  • No insulting or harassing other members. That includes name-calling.
  • Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
  • Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
  • Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
  • Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
  • No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
  • No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.
