Why is it extravagant waste? LiterateDog Send a noteboard - 20/09/2010 11:28:33 PM
Millions of dollars went to craftsmen and regular workers to build that house. It certainly stimulated the economy a lot more than any of the so-called "stimulus programs" have.

It's like when people complain about a rich person having a maid. What's to complain about? Someone who didn't have one now has a job. Or, as I'd say on my less amendable days, "Some bitch got a job out of it, now shut the fuck up."

Holy hell that is beautiful. Tigr - 20/09/2010 08:59:52 PM 859 Views
Yeah, when it drops to $20,000,000 from the current $25,000,000 I'm totally picking it up. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 09:04:16 PM 888 Views
I'll go halfsies. Tigr - 20/09/2010 09:12:23 PM 821 Views
I don't think it's a big celebrity area. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 09:23:15 PM 754 Views
Travolta has a landing strip. TaskmasterJack - 20/09/2010 11:36:48 PM 844 Views
LOL I was totally going to nail you on the landing strip reference when I'd just read the title. *NM* LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:44:55 PM 319 Views
Wow *NM* ironclad - 20/09/2010 09:04:18 PM 456 Views
An entire thing, by definition, cannot be the pièce de résistance. I hate artists so much. *NM* Ghavrel - 20/09/2010 09:17:26 PM 370 Views
AND magnum opus. Just... ugh. Fury. *NM* Ghavrel - 20/09/2010 09:18:01 PM 380 Views
Chill out, little dude. If you act decently, maybe Tigr and I will invite you over for lunch. *NM* LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 09:21:41 PM 335 Views
I'll be good. *NM* Ghavrel - 21/09/2010 04:41:11 AM 376 Views
I could live like that random thoughts - 20/09/2010 09:41:55 PM 782 Views
Even the revolting imagery you describe cannot take away from the glory that is The Razor. *NM* LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 09:43:30 PM 316 Views
what? *NM* random thoughts - 21/09/2010 03:01:46 AM 359 Views
I think... damookster - 21/09/2010 03:42:57 AM 866 Views
he must not know I look like a Greek God *NM* random thoughts - 21/09/2010 03:51:49 AM 337 Views
Why do you need six bathrooms if you only have four bedrooms? Joel - 20/09/2010 09:50:03 PM 793 Views
The original price was $32,000,000 as shown on that site. It is now listed elsewhere at $25,000,000. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 09:51:35 PM 857 Views
Ah, thought that was the mark down; in that case, I'll take three. Joel - 20/09/2010 09:57:27 PM 762 Views
With a place like that BlackAdder - 20/09/2010 11:02:20 PM 764 Views
That's the beauty of it: Joel - 20/09/2010 11:11:32 PM 862 Views
Convenience. Lots of guests at a party. Plenty of reasons to want extras. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:09:35 PM 808 Views
Meh. Joel - 20/09/2010 11:12:57 PM 813 Views
If you're spending that kind of money on a house you don't tell guests to tromp through the bedrooms LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:16:12 PM 766 Views
Well, it IS a guest room. Joel - 20/09/2010 11:23:52 PM 852 Views
Why is it extravagant waste? LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:28:33 PM 832 Views
Oi, let's not go there. Joel - 20/09/2010 11:34:34 PM 875 Views
That's what the entire economy IS based on. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:44:01 PM 792 Views
Let's recall how this conversation began, eh? Joel - 21/09/2010 12:17:30 AM 908 Views
Btw, I'm not replying again. You may like going back and forth with some fool on the net. I do not. *NM* LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:58:42 PM 318 Views
Fair enough. Joel - 21/09/2010 12:23:18 AM 857 Views
Also, I'm talking more about party guests. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:35:09 PM 752 Views
So you're thinking some of those six bathrooms would be more accurately described as toilets, then? Legolas - 20/09/2010 11:36:32 PM 762 Views
One can never know. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:46:38 PM 794 Views
Well, yes, I understood that. Joel - 20/09/2010 11:38:10 PM 1069 Views
You're never going to get it, so nevermind. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:50:12 PM 862 Views
You city boys and your fancy "portapotties. " Joel - 21/09/2010 12:18:46 AM 873 Views
I know where this house is.... Jeordam - 20/09/2010 10:03:40 PM 810 Views
If you call ahead, you may visit Tigr and me. *NM* LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 10:12:24 PM 298 Views
That area is very exclusive....I'm not sure that the local Home Owners association will allow Tigr. *NM* Jeordam - 20/09/2010 10:19:31 PM 373 Views
I can be very persuasive. Tigr - 20/09/2010 10:25:49 PM 778 Views
You're going with aggressive intimidation? Hmmm. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 10:34:45 PM 767 Views
Re: I can be very persuasive. TaskmasterJack - 20/09/2010 11:39:14 PM 805 Views
Don't knock his bald glare! LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 12:00:04 AM 838 Views
Eh. Sterile and lacking heart. Rebekah - 20/09/2010 10:10:34 PM 992 Views
Clean, intellectual, and appealing to the heart in a different manner. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 10:13:45 PM 843 Views
agreed. it's so...cold. *NM* LadyLorraine - 21/09/2010 02:12:03 AM 365 Views
That's pretty nice BlackAdder - 20/09/2010 11:06:35 PM 720 Views
There is no such thing as "too much house" if you can afford it. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:08:57 PM 752 Views
LitDog has a vagina. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 20/09/2010 11:40:26 PM 502 Views
I prefer to call it a "mussy". *NM* LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:47:35 PM 382 Views
Was that supposed to be like the German word, or is it a coincidence? *NM* Legolas - 20/09/2010 11:50:16 PM 325 Views
A link. For you. LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:54:31 PM 771 Views
Also. NSFW. *NM* LiterateDog - 20/09/2010 11:56:43 PM 368 Views
God, that song sucks. LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 12:06:39 AM 652 Views
Not much of a song, but it has its moments. Legolas - 21/09/2010 12:06:06 AM 822 Views
Heh. Yeah, it does. LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 12:07:42 AM 812 Views
More homophobic than puritan, then. Nice. *NM* Legolas - 21/09/2010 12:13:01 AM 328 Views
*does the cookin' by the book* Joel - 21/09/2010 12:21:11 AM 806 Views

Slave labor and the tears of children get the job done. *NM* LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 12:50:21 AM 309 Views
I...don't really like it... *NM* Great Lord of Chaos - 21/09/2010 01:42:58 AM 446 Views
That's okay. You're Canadian. *NM* LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 01:43:50 AM 357 Views
What I want to know is.... Beqi - 21/09/2010 03:32:55 AM 783 Views
It's beautiful ... rather it were in Maine though. *NM* The_Muted_Grimaud - 21/09/2010 05:14:00 AM 298 Views
Over LA JOLLA, San Diego? Craziest thing I've heard. Aeryn - 21/09/2010 12:22:52 PM 993 Views
I know, right? LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 04:46:50 PM 798 Views
I should imagine if that were in Maine it would need it's own power plant for heating Isaac - 21/09/2010 12:38:40 PM 894 Views
All that unrelieved white concrete would become a downer real fast. Vodalus - 21/09/2010 05:41:11 AM 849 Views
Oh, it definitely needs art, and more furniture. LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 04:46:02 PM 963 Views
That's neat to look at, but I wouldn't want to live there. Avendesora - 21/09/2010 04:41:29 PM 784 Views
High ceilings? Higher the better! *NM* LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 04:43:25 PM 391 Views
Pfffft. Avendesora - 21/09/2010 04:54:34 PM 734 Views
No, actually, I adore places like that. LiterateDog - 21/09/2010 05:02:40 PM 892 Views
Isn't that Ironman's house?? *NM* M & M Maddy - 22/09/2010 07:22:28 PM 419 Views
I think it's similar. *NM* LiterateDog - 22/09/2010 09:54:09 PM 325 Views
I didn't know he was Jewish! *NM* Craig - 23/09/2010 01:06:11 AM 387 Views
I had the same thought *NM* ironclad - 23/09/2010 02:15:34 PM 371 Views
