Default Things that suck about your house/flat

Just thought I'd do this thread to see how it went down.
The things that suck about our house are the stupid stairs which make huge cracking noises when you walk on them due to the badly laid floor. The fact that we have 7 TVs and only one of them works due to the sky box being installed wrong. The stupid shower which always has black crusty stuff blocking up the nozzle thing. The boiler which makes very loud buzzing noises every 5 minutes during the day due to being broken. And finally the garage which looks pretty much like a bombsite. We also have 2 cats with the iq of a pig embryo and a really thick dog who always craps all over the house and rips all the wallpaper off and that sort of counts as another thing that sucks about our house.
I really should do more ranting like this. It makes me feel good.

Default Things that suck about your house/flat

What a funny topic.lol
Things that suck about my house are the mess that my dog has made of it.He doesnt crap like yours Jimmy but he is big(a Doberman,English Pointer cross)and moults constantly.So the furniture and carpets are permanently covered in dog hair.
Hmm,what else.
It is at the top of a very steep hill,so taking the dog to the nearest park is a nightmare cause I know I have to walk 2 miles up hill to get home again.
It is semi detached so my neighbours sometimes complain about noise.
It has an open fire but no open fire central heating so I have to buy oil to heat the place and watch the heat from logs and coal going to waste up the damn chimney.
My garage is also a pretty much no go area,full of broken computers,monitors and all sorts of crap that needs to be thrown in a skip.
Oh and all the handles are falling of the PVC window frames for some reason?lol
Its really not that bad a house,I just though Id come and join you and have a whine ;)

Default Things that suck about your house/flat

Things that suck about my house:
Rather than a door, my room has a large sheet of black plastic that i'm sure would melt to the walls and trap me in the event of a fire.
I've got three windows in my room, but none of them open and we don't have AC.
My dad had to spend a month fixing the floor upstairs because the floor was made with only one layer of plywood... squeaky plywood.
I don't have a closet.
My binds tend to not work so I leave them down all the time.
My basement hasn't got ceiling tiles... which is actually really nice when running cables.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. My desk is a mess, but that's my fault, not my house's.

Default Things that suck about your house/flat

i have to walk up 3 flights of stairs to get to my upper bedroom, and its usually either too cold or too hot. my wireless connection is crap, due to location. even with under-floor heating in one of the bath-rooms is still pretty cold when stepping out after a shower. and we are still waiting for the glass to be put in the downstairs french doors, which has been substitued (for the time being) with plastic sheet.

Default Things that suck about your house/flat

It sucks ill be moving out my house after living in it all my life.

But the hall has been stripped off all wall paper and loads of plaster has come off and its been like that for over 10 years my dad never got round to finishing it. Which is a shame as the rest of the house looks nice.

Mines the worst out of all yours.

- I live in my the basement of my house and the city has done construction on the sewer pipe lines, They Fixed it for some unknown reason. We never had problems until they ****ed around. Ive been getting flooded in my basement every winter and spring with like a foot of water, While the fire department pumps the god damn water out. Stupid city, This was man made not mother nature.

- The windows in the basement where installed when my great grandfather used to live in my Antique house, So i get the god damn north wind blowing in and I'm literally freezing my nuts off.

What a brilliant topic!

When a tap is turned on or off, or the washing machine or dishwasher are on, the pipes bang and wake everyone up

Yes, the dog, a full sized Rough Collie! Love him to bits though, but the HAIR, the MUD!

£2000 a year council tax c/o our wonderful Labour council.

Yes, the spiders and woodlice!

The 1 microwatt digital tv transmitter in Sheffield that is blocked by not just the wrong type of leaves!

Default Things that suck about your house/flat

Mine has to be the front door, just got a new sofa delivered and to get it through the bloody thing I had to take the door off the hinges. Was gunna take the front window out but some clever bugger that lived here before me decided it would be a great idea to silcone the beading in thus rendering it impossible to remove the window. The stairs are also a pain, they turn in on themselves half way up, imagine getting a double divan bed up there that don't come apart and half way up the stairs is a foolishly large window and if you fall from the top of the stairs your bound to end up going through the window and landing outside the back door.

Default Things that suck about your house/flat

the crack running down the middle of my house makes me nervous.
its old so there are enough holes to allow the cold air to move freely in and out.
the tenants before me were "do-it-yourself"-ers (they couldn't, but tried anyway)
there's no fireplace......all houses need fireplaces, dammit!

does a housemate count as part of the house?
mine calls herself "real" but in reality is just a social retard....

Hehe, some pretty funny replies here.... can I add the fact that the boiler is still making a pretty crappy noise AND that we now have 2 fridges in the back garden which still need to be scrapped after about 6 months of being there... but then they're sort of part of the garden now so we may still not move them for another few months yet....

Nice thread crap things about my house
mortice dont work on front door, kitchens way to small, everytime it rains the gardens turns into a swamp literarey, bedrooms, one too big the others too small, bathroom is in the middle so everyone hears you crap in the nite and can count the no of times you wipe your ass, its either too hot or too cold, have a tap then when you turn it on it sounds like a jackhammer, and stairs that are norm quiet but sound like there about to break in the nite, have a psycho dog which attacks shadows,tries to climb trees, barks at flies, eats bees,howls at eastenders and thinks her tail is for attacking and then theres the cat which charges the net curtains and attacks them full on leaping in the air claws out smacking her head against the window and ends up norm tangled up in them pleading to be let free, only to do it again
oh and the kids still live at home
now THATS a whole new thread
