“A flock of aggressive turkeys will encircle my car when I pull in the driveway.
This sounds made up, but it is my life.”

“A flock of turkeys will encircle my car when I pull in the driveway on a semi-regular basis.
This sounds made up, but it is my life.”
I thought I would love it, but now I would kill for a separate kitchen area.

It makes our house feel like an apartment."

“The hood over the stove that doesn’t vent outside in an otherwise good, functional kitchen.

“The only bathroom in the house is in the basement.
I have to go from the top of the house to the bottom at night just to pee!”

“We bought a 1952-built house in 2020.
The door from the house to the garage was a normal-looking door but 2/3 sized.
Never could figure out why.

This makes our driveway steep and curved.
I didn’t realize how much of a pain all of this would be.

I feel like I spend my life fixing the lawn.”

“Our living room is one step down from the kitchen.

Because fuck you, that’s why.
I can’t tell you how many times my kids have tripped up/down that one step.”
“We remodeled our kitchen years ago and installed a fancy Delta Touch faucet.

Great idea, we thought!
Touch the handle and push it forward to turn on the water.
The faucet turns on and immediately turns off.

So they give it another spin and again and wonder what the fuck is wrong with our faucet.”

This is way worse when one is sick and in and out of the bathroom.

“Not my current home, but I moved in somewhere that only had one drawer in the kitchen.
I didn’t realize when viewing, it because who counts drawers?
“Two bedrooms have light switches on the wall on the side where the door hinges are.

I will never again entertain a bathroom with no natural ventilation or light.”

“The previous owner put a skylight in the master bedroom.
It’s a pain in the ass to cover, and I just hate it.
It’s an ongoing joke in the household.
It doesn’t, it’s stupid.”
SO NICE to have someone open then close this LOUD door when I’m trying to sleep late.
Then come back and open and close it again.”

If anyone has any suggestions on how to address this problem, Id love to know.
I was wondering if I should rig up some sort of pot holder material onto the handle.
Its one of those handles you have to click down with your thumb to initiate the door.”
“Not enough storage space.
Closets are way more important than I realized.”

And the bathroom sink has dips/soap wells where water accumulates daily."

“Small white tiles in the bathroom.
The grout gets disgusting, and to hand clean that many small little sections of grout is horribly tedious.
“There’s a playground behind my house.
I didn’t realize how much children sound like they’re being tortured when they play.”

“We do not have a single storage closet besides in the bedrooms.
Having to go to the basement every time you need a broom gets really old.”
u/chaptereight

“For us, its having only street parking.
Its on an exterior wall.
It has a window.
But they didnt put in a fan.
You really dont know just how important bathroom fans are until you dont have one.”

“I hate that my washer and dryer are in my basement.
I have to carry loads up and down creepy, dark stairs every day.
I wish I had them upstairs!
Its especially hard when Im heavily pregnant.”

“The toilet in my bathroom is one of those extra-tall ones.
I am very short.”
