traditionalguy म्हणाले...: That reminds me of graffiti in the cafeteria bathroom at college which said, " Please Flush hard. It's a long way to the kitchen."; ४/२/१५, ५:४४ PM
Big Mike म्हणाले...: Oh! My! Gawd!; ४/२/१५, ५:४६ PM
Rob म्हणाले...: There's a shower as well. Kramer would love the place.; ४/२/१५, ५:४७ PM
Blue Ox म्हणाले...: The sink and dishwasher seem a little unnecessary considering there's a shower right there. Come to think of it, so's the need for a toilet.; ४/२/१५, ६:०७ PM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: "The guests will be here in ten minutes!"
"Hand me the lettuce. I'll shred it for the salad while I'm sitting here."; ४/२/१५, ६:१५ PM
YoungHegelian म्हणाले...: I doubt you could have that bathroom/kitchen arrangement in the USA. I can't imagine it would pass code anywhere.

You could re-model a house, and do that to it, but you couldn't sell it until you un-did that arrangement.; ४/२/१५, ६:१८ PM

Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: "Dustin and I believe in the sacred purity of the fecal-oral route."; ४/२/१५, ६:२७ PM
Francisco D म्हणाले...: I don't know much about Aussies. My time in London and Paris (particularly the latter) tell me that Americans are different, in a positive manner, when it comes to bathrooms.

I have had shitty food, such as in London, and strange bathrooms, such as in Paris, but shitting in a kitchen is likely to be considered disgusting in most cultures.

Not that there is anything wrong with it, of course.; ४/२/१५, ६:३२ PM
john म्हणाले...: Look at the lock on the door - it's a prison cell. An efficiency cell.

Everything fits, except for the toaster, which wouldn't be allowed.; ४/२/१५, ६:३९ PM
Kyzer SoSay म्हणाले...: This is why, until my earnings permit, I would never even consider living in a trendy city. I pay less than what some of the rooms on that blog's page go for on my mortgage, taxes, and utilities, and I've got over 1,500 square feet (maybe like 1,700 - I don't remember - it's more if you count the semi-finished basement) to exist in.

I mean, anyone who cares that much about being close to "the scene" is a moron.; ४/२/१५, ७:२८ PM
TDP म्हणाले...: Gives new meaning to the term, "shitburgers"...; ४/२/१५, ७:४९ PM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: "These big city kitchens are small, but they sure are convenient."; ४/२/१५, ८:३९ PM
traditionalguy म्हणाले...: A twofer. You can use the paper towels for toilet paper if you place the roll the right distance between them. And hot bacon grease can go down with one easy flush.

If you can't stand the smell, get out of the kitchen. Scott Walker said that, and I would not bet against him.; ४/२/१५, ९:२४ PM
Cynicus म्हणाले...: Don't shit where you eat, literally.; ४/२/१५, ९:४१ PM
Laslo Spatula म्हणाले...: I don't like it when Freeman Hunt is obscene.

I am Laslo.; ४/२/१५, ९:४४ PM

MadisonMan म्हणाले...: I like the tile, tho the grout seems a bit thick.; ४/२/१५, १०:२९ PM
kzookitty म्हणाले...: That's sure a horrible kitchen.

Hate the tile, and the stove only has one element. Whatever were they thinking?

kzookitty

Actually, it reminds me of the "facilities" in a lock-up I was in one night. I'd rather be in that kitchen. Come to think of it, the tile's pretty much the same.; ४/२/१५, १०:४३ PM
अनामित म्हणाले...: We engineers understand efficiency. This is a one-person apartment. And that one person is a nudist.; ५/२/१५, १२:४० AM
अनामित म्हणाले...: Actually, that glass shower can double as a 'roo box' while you and your guests cook, entertain, and possibly defecate together:

'Mind if I park 'Dangerous Dan' in the shower box here mate?'

'Naw mate, go rightahead, up to 200 lbs. No worries.'

'Cheers mate.'; ५/२/१५, ३:५१ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: I lived in Sydney for about six months for work a couple decades ago. I just can't believe this. I never shit in a hole in the floor there the way you might in Paris. It was pretty first world with an off beat, to an American anyway, charm. My experience was a lot like the life portrayed in Muriel's Wedding.

I would live there again in a heartbeat if the chance came up.; ५/२/१५, ५:५५ AM
tim maguire म्हणाले...: It's got a nice shower.; ५/२/१५, ६:३१ AM
tim maguire म्हणाले...: People of moderate means who want to live in a certain neighborhood and only go home to sleep are lucky these options exist.; ५/२/१५, ६:३३ AM
Phil 314 म्हणाले...: For those with a strong gastrocolic reflex.; ५/२/१५, ६:५९ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: People of moderate means who want to live in a certain neighborhood and only go home to sleep are lucky these options exist.

I suppose that is true. I just can't imagine having an apartment where entertaining is out of the question. Better not to have a kitchen and eat nothing but takeout, I would think.; ५/२/१५, ७:०६ AM
Jaq म्हणाले...: Excuse me, take away.; ५/२/१५, ७:०७ AM
MayBee म्हणाले...: So frosted glass wasn't an option?; ५/२/१५, ७:२० AM
Peter म्हणाले...: But if you put a sink above the toilet tank you could re-use the grey water for flushing ...

I can recall a cheap apartment with an all-in-one refrigerator/stovetop/sink appliance. The main flaw was, the stovetop was above the frig., and if you left a burner on too long it would melt stuff in the freezer compartment that was directly underneath it.; ५/२/१५, ८:४९ AM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: "Maddie, I'm afraid we can't make it tonight. Burt has that stomach bug that's going around."
"Oh no, a stomach bug's no problem at all. Our kitchen's equipped for that."; ५/२/१५, ११:२० AM
Viking In Winter म्हणाले...: Totally disgusting. The smell of frying bacon mixed with my morning constitutional. That should bring them to the table.
Aside from that, a single burner stove, I tiny fridge, four feet of counter space? Is this a FEMA shelter?; ५/२/१५, ३:०२ PM
