How did anyone think this was a good idea?! Are the bubbles made of cotton wool? At least they gave the mannequin a glass of wine I guess.

I do enjoy a good cotton bath.

[–] Lemmylefty@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago (3 children)

This whole room is just bizarre. The (desk? Vanity? Sink?) right next to the tub with barely room to pull the chair out that will get wet if you exit the wrong direction, a mirror at a height to show you lips and up, oddly sharp looking tub edges, what looks like a cross between an old timey phone and a spigot with too many pipes, a staged bath with only one visible rug, and it’s probably just me but man do I hate frosted glass as privacy for bathrooms.

Lol sitting in that chair, in front of that mirror, most people would be lucky to see the top of their heads

Not to mention, for a vanity, that mirror is really far away hah basically saying, “youre ugly. You don’t even want to see yourself.”

[–] Polydextrous@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Shot, can you even call that frosted glass? I can make out and count each individual tile on the front walkway lol this place has got to be some sick joke

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The tub is a really weird shape too. Why?

[–] freamon@endlesstalk.org 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The window is frosted, but if that mannequin ever comes to life, the neighbours will be treated to a suggestive silhouette.

[–] Polydextrous@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Lol you can never use that bathroom after dark. Everyone that walks by will be able to tell exactly what you’re doing.

[–] hoodlem@hoodlem.me 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The sex doll is cringe but that bathroom is nice tho

[–] SomeoneElseMod 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Do you really think so? I don’t like it at all!

[–] conc@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

I really dislike it

[–] 5redie8@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Looks like it came straight out of 2007

[–] dingleberry@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago

Idk why it's giving big "grandma's bathroom" energy.

[–] WhiteTiger@lemmynsfw.com 10 points 1 year ago

My guess would be the inside of that tub is stained/broken and this is an attempt to hide it.

Is it staging or could their bathroom just be like that? It's not a weird thing to do - one Festive period I left and inflatable doll wearing a Santa hat in a bath outside my front door. It was a definite talking point until Mary disappeared mysteriously on New Year's Eve. I like to think someone woke up on New Year's Day with a shocking hangover and some serious questions about what the hell they got up to the previous night.

[–] SomeoneElseMod 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As delightful as Mary sounds (and I hope she and her NYE buddy are happy together!) I definitely think it’s weird - assuming you don’t live in a university town. Funny weird, but weird. The fact that Mary was in your garden and was dressed festively makes it less slightly less strange - everyone has a different approach to Christmas decorations after all. But putting an inflatable doll in a bathtub full of cotton wool so you could take photos to entice people to buy this house… SO fucking weird!

[–] Emperor 1 points 1 year ago

Relatively weird.

[–] soupspoon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

All the new-found responsibility from around Christmastime probably just caught up with her, and she had to get out of there

[–] Emperor 2 points 1 year ago

As long as she's happy, wherever she is.

[–] FollyDolly@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is...is that a Real Doll? Did they stage a sensual bubble bath for a sex doll?

[–] SomeoneElseMod 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My sheltered mind didn’t consider it was a sex doll and not a mannequin 🫣

[–] FollyDolly@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Oh my sweet summer child

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

No, it's Kim Cattrall.

Unless that's a Muscat, I've never seen wine that colour....

[–] mars296@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah they probably didn't want to waste real wine so they got some sort of tea or other soft drink.

[–] Mr_Blott@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I was implying urine btw

[–] Imgonnatrythis@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Got my attention and I think it looks like a nice bath. Boring isn't always better Imo.

[–] SomeoneElseMod 12 points 1 year ago

I promise you can be interesting without putting a sex doll in a bathtub of cotton wool.
