I wanted to b**** so I figured why not open it up to all (wiggle)
1. HGTV.....go F@#% yourselves.
In one hour of TV I see one show remove 90% of someones stuff, call it out dated and then it looks like they all but put all of that stuff back in someone elses house on the next show....WTF?
Stainless steal is not the ONLY color for appliances today, stop pretending it is. Your just going to say that's outdated 5 years from now.
Also, quit this BS about how the entire project only cost $1900 when you had well over $15,000 worth of labor on the job. You ain't moving two walls and building an eat in kitchen for $1900.
And if I see one more idiot decorator put a TV centered at over 6' high over a fireplace I AM GOING TO PUKE. I hate to break this to the women and gay men that like playing with colors but there is NOTHING that is more of a focal point to a room then the TV. NOTHING! No one sits and stairs at fireplace, and playing XBOX on a fireplace don't work to well either. Try designing for how people actually use the room.
Its not hard to layout a room when you throw out anything worth having in the room in the first place. Yes there is plenty of room to put in couches and tables when there is no TV, no source equipment, and no speakers....but why the hell would I ever want to be sitting in that room? to talk to my wife? BS, I have better things to do.
Lastly what is this crap about staging a persons house for sale when you have not even lowered the price yet. If you are going to make these poor bastards take a $40,000 hit by lowering the houses price, DO THAT BEFORE WASTING ANY MORE OF THESE PEOPLES TIME OR MONEY.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come to my house with one of these shows.
HGTV Designer, " We are going to remove the TV"
Me, "F*&# You"
HGTV Designer, "We replaced the large speakers with these little Bose speakers that blend in"
Me, "Get my speakers off that truck and shove these piece of s*** Bose speakers up your ass"
HGTV designer, "we removed the unsightly entertainment center and components and replaced it with this small all in one system"
Me, "That's IT! I'm getting my Glock.
Yes, a TV that big needs to be centered at 5 feet or less.
Yes the speakers need to be that big, they sound Fugging incredible and no those little piece of junk in no way compare.
Yes I need a 15" sub woofer because when something blows up on a movie I am watching, I want my neighbors to know about it.
No you can't put a coffee table there, that's wheres I stand when playing Guitar hero.
I paid for this house so my stuff comes first, design for that or take a hike.
2. Car magazines...I DON'T GIVE A RATS ASS ABOUT $100,000+ cars.
Who really cares how fast or how well a car can handle if it has no cost limitations in production, design, or the selling price? Not to mention I will never be able to afford these things, so again I dont care. Get a car that the average person can afford to do these things and I will be impressed. Until then shut up about that Lamborghini, I am not impressed that a $300,000 car can go 0-60 in 3.whatever seconds.
