PORN Surfing

Mo:

There are different definitions of porn.

My personal trainer said to me the other week that he´d been "porn surfing" on YouTube. What he really meant was that he had spent hours checking out different training clips of people´s private training videos.

When we talk about porn-surfing in my house we mean spending indecent amounts of time checking out apartments on Hemnet.

"Do they really think they are going to get xxx-millions for THAT?!"
"Honey, come and look at THIS!!!!" (normally meaning a hideous carpet/wallpaper/kitchen/bathroom)
"Do they REALLY think they can call that a 3-room apartament, just because they put up an extra wall in front of the kitchen window???? Do they think the buyer is stupid, or what?!"

..and in these days when Home Styling is BIG business, are we really that gullible that we don´t understand that the photos are taken with a fisheye lens, that the bed or the cupboard are mini-sized to make the room look bigger, and HOW come every single female person in Gothenburg suddenly seems to own a Mulberry handbag and wear high heeled shoes + a colourful silk scarf??????????

The worst one so far: When I went to a showing in Linné and the home styling company had created a fake children´s room (sticking out like a sore thumb in comparison to the interior design and flavour in the rest of the flat...), to make it look like a piece of cake for any prospective family to live on the 5th floor without an elevator, since the existing family in that particular apartment "obviously" had handled it with 2(!) kids....

Naughty, naughty!

But then again, WHO in their right mind trusts estate agents anyway?
