More Ugly Belgian Houses
Continuing a
look at ugly Belgian houses, as documented by Belgian architect Hannes Coudenys
on his website at:
Also included,
some reader comments from a Bored Panda post about the pics of the houses, at:

Aah Weekend
Reader comments:
It's not ugly,
it's happy and beautiful!
And it also got
it's first tooth! Awww..
It looks like it
just heard a great joke!
Aww it looks so
cheerful

Reader comments:
I would be mad
too, squished between two other buildings like this
I'm wondering
WHY they angled the windows like that.
Houses get
emotional these days. We saw happy one, now the upset one. I am curious what's
coming next…
It needs to meet
up with the happy house!

When You’re
Trying To Watch Something But Those Spam Windows Pop Up
Reader comments:
I'm still trying
to figure out where the heck the floors are in that house.
For some,
symmetry is overrated. Not for me though - this hurts
Well, the
windows distract you from how ugly the rest of the house is!
When you think
you can plan your house by yourself instead of hiring an architect.
I bet they have
pictures hung on the wall in the same (non) order.
House of
confusion.
Or just Windows

Mayday Mayday!
The East Wall Is Sinking!
Reader comments:
It'd be an
interesting house to trip at!
This house was
designed by Frank Lloyd Wrong
Not that bad,
might be a walk up ramp
It would be like
waking up with a hangover . . . every day.
Warning...OCD
mode has been activated!
Gotta be fun for
the brick mason. Normally you try to make everything as straight and horizontal
as possible, and then comes some architect...

My House When
You Came In The Backdoor
Thomas the tank
engine inspired?
Looks like it's
(unsuccessfully) trying to hide
. . . while
eating those bushes
I think I can I
think I can.
It's the little
engine that could!!!
Pinnochio!

Insane the Spain
Reader comments:
I actually... kinda like this.
This house is
awesome.
The insane in
Spain is mainly on the plain
I LOVE this
one!!!!
I love this.
It’s like a kooky fairytale cottage.
Has a
"Sphinx" feel...
______________
The Sky is Limited
Reader comments:
I guess the
owner of the house didn't want to sell...
Maybe he just
wanted to be very close to his neighbours.
The house was
there first, I would say. They do this all the time.
i like you brave
house!
Plant some ivy
dude
The house is not
ugly, but because sitting next to the new house....... ends up ugly. 🙄😜
The multi-storey
probably came after, but the house is...well...horrid!
UG A LEA
Now to wait for
the balloons and amazing adventure.
It's like the
movie "Up" but more realistic

If Snake And
Tetris Made A Baby
Reader comments:
There used to be
a garage, and a normal door where the red brick is now. They repurposed the
building
Its so
beautiful.... i declare its name will be snetris.... 😌
Silly house!
Tiles are for bathrooms!
And pools.
what a beautiful
child
A local hospital
had an over abundance of operating room tiles leftover after the remodel!
Not so good if
you're OCD.

When Your House
Tried To Be Beautiful
Reader comments:
This house is a
representation of me pretending to be okay.
Yep, same here.
Except that part of the house would be near collapsing.
Don't believe
anything this house tells you.
They did this to
the old Ovaltine factory in King's Langley, England. The factory closed and the
front fascia was clssed as a losted building so they knocked the factory down
and built flats in its place but the building retained the old facia, complete
with the Ovaltine logo.
Looks like a
movie set!
People who try
to sound more intelligent than they actually are look like this.
For some reason,
I like it. There is nothing wrong with it
______________
Even the Neighbours
are Scared
Reader comments:
That's a really
cool house!
I like this one!
All this house
needs is a drawbridge and a moat...and maybe a dragon
Great for the
upcoming zombie apocalypse!
The house is
fine. It's the wall that needs help.
I love this!!
I would live in
there! It just needs maintenance for the garden.
______________
D I Why?
Reader comments:
This one is
cool!
They got all of
the windows at a salvage yard?
It's missing as
many trees as would fit into the yard, then it'd be the Elven embassy.
A giant hobbit
house!
It's a bit odd,
but not ugly. (Beauty is in the eye of the beholder)
I have no idea
WHY this makes me think of a happy German Burgermeister ....
It has an Emo
fringe!

Pablo Picasa
Reader comments:
That wave below
the windows makes it look more like Salvador Dali.
You're right. I
thought that was the nose, but it's that exquisite mustache.
Painter be like:
"I'll paint the rest after I have a cup of coffee". * never came back
Why would they
paint it to look like two small separate houses.
I am crazy and
so am I.

Quote for the Day
"There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves."
- Will Rogers
Funny Friday
-----------😊---------
Another day of japes, jokes and funnies butm be warned, there is risque content ahead . . .

Some humour . . .
My wife stormed into the pub last night as me and the boys
were downing shots of Tequila.
“You’re coming home now!” she screamed.
“No, I’m not,” I laughed.
She said, “I’m talking to the kids.”

The President is walking out of the white house and heading towards his limo,
when a possible attacker steps forward and aims a gun.
A secret service agent, new on the job, shouts "Mickey
Mouse!" This startles the would be attacjer and he is captured.
Later, the secret service agent's supervisor takes him aside
and asks, "What in the hell made you shout 'Mickey Mouse'?"
Blushing, the agent replies, "I got nervous, I meant to
shout.....
"Donald, duck!"
______________
I called my wife at work and asked, "Do you ever get a
shooting pain across your body, like someone's got a voodoo doll of you and
they're stabbing it?" Sounding concerned, she said, "No."
I responded, "How about now?"

President Trump
walks into a local bank in Washington to cash a cheque. He is surrounded by
Secret Service agents. As he approaches the cashier he says, "Good morning
Ma'am, could you please cash this cheque for me?"
Cashier:
"It would
be my pleasure sir. Could you please show me your ID?"
Trump:
"Truthfully,
I did not bring my ID with me as I didn't think there was any need to. I am
President Donald Trump, the President of the United States of AMERICA
!!!!"
Cashier:
"Yes sir,
I know who you are, but with all the regulations and monitoring of the banks
because of 9/11, impostors, forgers, money laundering, and bad mortgage
underwriting not to mention requirements of the Dodd/Frank legislation, etc., I
must insist on seeing ID."
Trump:
“Just ask
anyone here at the bank who I am and they will tell you. Everybody knows who I
am."
Cashier:
"I am
sorry Mr. President but these are the bank rules and I must follow them."
Trump:
"I am
urging you, please, to cash this cheque. I need to buy a gift for Melania for
Valentine’s Day"
Cashier:
"Look Mr.
President, here is an example of what we can do. One day, Tiger Woods came into
one of our bank branches without ID. To prove he was Tiger Woods he pulled out
his putter and made a beautiful shot across the bank into a coffee cup. With
that shot we knew him to be Tiger Woods and cashed his check.”
“Another time, Roger
Federer came into the same place without ID. He pulled out his tennis racquet
and made a fabulous shot where the tennis ball landed in a coffee cup. With
that shot we cashed his cheque.
So, Mr.
President, what can you do to prove that it is you, and only you, as the
President of the United States?"
Trump:
Trump stands
there thinking, and thinking, and finally says, "Honestly, my mind is a
total blank...there is nothing that comes to my mind. I can't think of a single
thing. I have absolutely no idea what to do and I don’t have a clue.”
Cashier:
"Will that
be large or small bills, Mr. President?

From the vault .
. .
A man walks
into a bar after a long day at the office. On his way in, he sees a man sitting
there wearing extravagant clothes, with the body of Arnold Schwarzenegger in
his prime. As he approaches the bar he notices the man has an extremely small
head, which is made worse due to the disproportionately large scale of his
body.
The two start
chatting and the muscular gentleman notices that the other man keeps eyeing his
comical cranium, so he opens up.
“By now I’m
guessing you’ve noticed the difference between my tiny skull and huge body...”
“No... I hadn’t
realised until you said something,” replied the first man sheepishly.
“Let me tell
you a story. About five years ago, I was on a trip to the Middle East and came
across a magic lamp. Upon inspecting the lamp, the most beautiful genie you can
image appeared and granted me three wishes. For my first wish I asked for 50
million dollars... with the snap of a finger a full truckload of money appeared
before me! For my second wish I asked to have the body of Arnold Schwarzenegger
in his prime. Another snap of the finger and voila! I’m jacked without stepping
foot in a gym once in my life.”
“What was your
third wish?” asked the first man.
“Well, to be
brutally honest I had been a broke, fat slob my whole life prior to getting my
first two wishes. I saw how gorgeous the genie was and asked her to sleep with
me, but she told me that this would be impossible as genies don’t have
genitals. So I said, ‘How ‘bout a little head?’”

Limerick of the
Week:
There was a
young fellow named Sweeney,
Whose girl was
a terrible meanie,
The hatch of her snatch,
Had a catch that would latch,
She could only
be screwed by Houdini.

Corn Corner:
If you boil a funny bone it becomes a laughing stock.
That's pretty humerus.
I saw an ad for burial plots, and thought to myself this is
the last thing I need.
A friend of mine tried to annoy me with bird puns, but I
soon realised that toucan play at that game.
The therapist asked my wife why she wanted to end our
marriage. She said she hated all the constant Star Wars puns. I look at the
therapist and said, "Divorce is strong with this one!"
