    What cracked me up was the iron and ironing board standing in the middle of the kitchen.

    The one thing that makes me wonder if this is fake is all the half-smoked cigarettes. See particularly the second-to-last picture. My gut reaction to that is that someone who is that heavy of a smoker is not going to waste that many cigarettes. They seem to be burned down and put out almost exactly the same way too, almost as if they were done so on purpose for a photoshoot. Why anybody would go to the trouble to stage this is beyond me though.
    There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

    Pure shock value, that's all.

    Someone maybe worked really hard to get a "whoa".

    Goodman: There are a lot of little tricks to it, things you should have learned a long time ago. Such as, if you leave milk out, it can go sour. Put it in the refrigerator, or, failing that, a cool wet sack.

    And put your garbage in a garbage can, people. I can't stress that enough. Don't just throw it out the window.

    Marge: This is so humiliating.

    Homer: "Garbage in garbage can"...hmm, makes sense.

    If you're a chain smoker then you don't let one get burned too far. This person is a heart attack waiting to happen. Wouldn't you love to see his/her "numbers" from a blood count obtained during a physical?

    Believe it or not, this is only slightly worse than a place my wife's uncle and I took a mattress to last year. He and his wife got a new mattress and had heard through their church about a family that wanted their old one. We took it to their address and I was just shocked. They had 2 little boys too, both a year or 2 on either side of my daughter's age, and it just really hit me. I actually was almost physically sick about it. I asked my wife's uncle if the church organization that had their names was aware of the conditions.

    My bathrooms weren't THAT bad.

    They weren't good, but they weren't THAT bad.

    Ever seen "How Clean Is Your House?" on BBC America? This looks like something out of one of those shows. While it wasn't this bad, we looked at a house that had garbage in the basement stacked to the ceiling and trash all over the upstairs and that was after the family had spent two weeks cleaning to get the place "ready" for sale. Needless to say, we didn't buy the house. We saw some other pretty gross places too, but the worst was when I worked at an estate planning firm. A man once died alone in his house and wasn't discovered until neighbors started complaining of the stench a month later. They had to go in through a window to get him out because the front door was blocked by garbage and what was left of the guy. I heard the attorney, the paralegal, and her husband, who went to the house to collect the assets for the estate had to, or at least were advised to rent hazmat suits. I think after they cleared it, they ended up razing the place.
    Wear gaudy colors, or avoid display. Lay a million eggs or give birth to one. The fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live. Be like your ancestors or be different. We must repeat!
