Is that a command, or... ?

A screenshot of a map showing the town of Embarrass in Minnesota, USA. It's quite rural and has a squiggly river going along the south of it.

This house is not notable except for this wall. I bet the eyes follow you around the room.

An open area with a long desk and 2 grey upholstered chair. It's all quite normal looking except for the wall behind it, which is grey with circles and inside the circles are black and white faces and some are just an eyeball or a chin. The print is of Edwardian-era opera singer Lina Cavalieri and the design is by Piero Fornasetti.

Do you like Italy? Do you like painted ceiling sticks and random rocks? This is the place for you!

A large open room with curved walls and part of the bowed ceiling has cris-crossing painted white sticks attached to it. The floor is terracotta coloured tiles, and there is a stairway with large rocks scattered around it.

BIG NEWS!
It's the 12th of August here in Australia which means it's.... Weird Estate's first birthday!

It brings me great joy to entertain you all and it makes my day to hear that people enjoy the silly things I find.

Here's hoping that people continue to have wacky ideas and questionable taste so I can keep sharing my finds. I think it's a safe bet, to be honest.

This is just your average imitation Elizabethan manor house and then there's... that.

Oh okay it's a bathroom with some red and gold, kind of tacky but... wait... IS THAT SADDAM HUSSEIN?

An excellent find from a follower - the toilet is real! And it's definitely a trick of the camera to make it look so long.

A very odd looking toilet. The bottom is completely round with what appears to be a small lid on top, and a very tall upright back.

I hope it's a trick of the camera lens because this toilet is baffling. It looks way too close to the wall and like the seat opening wouldn't be big enough. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/161765684#/?channel=RES_BUY

An all white bathroom with a toilet that looks long and very narrow. It is right next to the wall and is a bulbous round shape.
