Funny Home Renovations That Didn't Go as Planned

This Landlord Has Terrible Taste in Wallpaper

If you’re stuck renting an apartment, chances are you won’t love every one of your landlord’s design choices. Maybe they installed an outdated air conditioner in the living room or didn’t bother to properly secure the shower handle. Annoying, right? But neither of those issues compares to the horror show in the picture below. This landlord decided to paint the spare room and, in a move that defies logic, painted right over a dead cockroach

Sure, the little guy looks like he’s doing a dance, but let’s be honest—this is way grosser than most of us would tolerate in our own homes. Who wouldn’t cringe at the thought of living with a cockroach fossilized in the wall? It’s not just unsightly; it raises questions about cleanliness and maintenance. While renters often deal with quirks like squeaky floors or mismatched fixtures, this takes things to a whole new level. Would you stay in a place like this, or would you demand a fix? For most of us, this would be a hard pass—and a reminder to always inspect a rental thoroughly before signing the lease.
