That is a rejected insurance claim waiting to happen. I mean, imagine coming home to find out it had a hole and leaked all over the place while you were out.

Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.
Posting guidelines.
Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:
-
the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)
-
the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)
-
the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)
-
the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.
-
Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.
-
Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.
-
Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content
Rules.
This community follows the rules of the feddit.uk instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:
- Be civil, remember the human.
- No insulting or harassing other members. That includes name-calling.
- Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
- Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
- Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
- Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
- No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.

Something tells me these people don't do insurance claims.
What’s a “in-shurince”?
In-sewer-ants, it means if my tavern burns down, I get money.
Upvote for the Terry Pratchett reference.
I wonder what told you that.
I'm going to assume that the outlets are at least GFCI... Right...? Right?
Next you'll be telling me that the neighbor installed a hot tub in his apartment and it ended up shorting out the building's electricity, causing me to miss a very important alarm.
If your alarm can't survive a power outage, it's not an important alarm.
I know this reference!
I don't, mind filling me in?
Seinfeld reference. Kramer got a hot tub, made the marathon runner miss the alarm cause the power went out
Goodbye woodwork, we hardly knew ye.
Me: what do you do in the event of a fire?
Genius: I'd be in the pool, i'in't? /Taps head
I set my bath pillow on fire once - while I was in the bath. I was well impressed with my quick thinking just to yank in down into the bathwater to put it out. My partner was too unimpressed with my stupidity/carelessness to appreciate my quick reflexes!
What in the fuck could you possibly be doing where you find yourself in a situation where your pillow is on fire? While bathing?
I’m with your partner on this one.
Candles around the bath! One behind my head got a bit out of control and caught the bath pillow. It was made from something super flammable (or inflammable?) so it went up quickly. It singed a few hairs and the pillow was ruined, but no injuries or damage otherwise!
super flammable (or inflammable?)
Both mean the same thing! Thanks to the confusing English language, we have to use "non-flammable" to make it clear that something is NOT flammable/inflammable.
Such heated indoor pools are sometimes used for hydrotherapy, where a storage or separate room is used just for the pool.
Would this truly be the suggested set up though? An inflatable pool in your dining room? I used to have hydrotherapy until I found it too difficult to actually get there. They recommended warm baths, not that I DIY one in my house!
This setup in the image looks crampy and sketchy, but in general the property owner build and maintain the pool and rent it to hydrotherapy therapists (or use it for its own such business). Normally (well, excluding cases we see in this community) one does not build one just for themselves in their livingroom or kitchen.
Imagine paying to use someone’s “hydrotherapy pool” only to turn up and see this! 😂 yeah, there’s a house near me that has a small indoor swimming pool that’s rented out for hydro. It’s really expensive though.
What sort of carpet do you think the floor has?
Mildew-y
OK, sometimes I see these and think 'that's not **that **terrible'. This is NOT one of those times...
I guess concern that the water is filthy isn’t really the biggest issue here.
Not only is it weird for an inflatable pool to be indoors, but that is a very tight fit.
Someone needs to research live loads on floor joists.
Well that's certainly one way to do it...
Gotta setup a dart board on the adjacent wall so you can play darts from the pool.
I want this life, a life without worries were you do whatever with no care in the world.
The overhead lights are a nice extra.
That water looks like it hasn’t been cleaned since the pool was installed many years ago.
Wow, it looks like it's Czech! Can you please post a link to the listing? I would love to know where exactly is it :)
I only found this photo, not the whole listing unfortunately!
are you OP or Someone Else? 🤔
Op and SomeoneElse! I have a couple of accounts. I use this one mainly as my personal one for browsing and SomeoneElseMod for mod related stuff and creating posts. All the “someone” accounts listed as mods in the sidebar are me.
Didn't Bam Margera do this to his parents as a prank?
