[Drew Dowdell]

Haven't you seen Motorola's new naming scheme lately?

It'd be the Motorola Penr

Let me throw this thread for a loop and instead of posting another picture of me. How about y'all hear how I sound...(at least how I sounded in college several years ago).

Aww...

That's what it looks like.  And it probably is a phone.  However, when regarding Drew...

The no-carpet look is just modern, not gay.

I have no carpet, and I'm straight...

...and probably just posting this because I'm drunk. Enjoy!

I'll take some tonight and post them for everyone.  :AH-HA_wink:

yeah, yeah... I didn't have time last night, cause I'm working a lot of overtime lately (I'm at work now, and shouldn't be on here, tsk, tsk)...

I'll post them tonight.

haha dont worry about it... just help me get chris away from my window...

[sciguy_0504]

You still got me, Monte. HAHA.

I'm not so sure about the shaved look. Personally, I would never do it even though basic trimming is required and highly recommended. I guess it reminds me of a 10-year old and that's a turn off.

[the_yellow_dart]

OK. Is everybody ready for the "no carpet pics"?

There's even some pictures of wood!

...really

Living room, hardwood.

Kitchen, unfinished - I'm going to tile it.

Bedroom, same hardwood.

Front hall, and bathroom, two different tiles.

Now... why do I get the feeling there's an angry gay mob about to drive up here tonight, hold me down and check for the kind of carpet they thought I was talking about?

You're all such dirty buggers.

Wildman, not the one I would have expected to go after my interior design.

There are some um... interesting colour choices in here. The guy I bought this place from was gay, and one colour in particular was a little too, um, flamboyant for me.

In this photo you'll see the green that I painted the front hallway, and behind where the closet door closes, the square of purple that I missed painting. When I first bought it, it looked like Barney the Dinosaur exploded in my hallway.

I like the gold in the living room, it's a fun colour and I think I got some artwork that works with it...

This brings me to the "busted wall". The previous owner took out part of a wall to let more light into the living room. He tried to be "artistic" however, and finished the edge of the wall all bumpy. Not jagged or dangerous or anything - just... odd. Take a look.

The bedroom's another interesting colour, but again, I like this one..

The kitchen is the only thing that really needs some help. Dark green counters, neon yellow cupboards and red floors. It's a little much:

Anybody have any advice for the kitchen?

I want to do tile for the floor (it's just painted concrete right now), and maybe get a new countertop and paint the cupboards. Colour suggestions?

[the_yellow_dart]

Uh, he said an angry gay mob... grab your nail files and pile into the Beetle!

196850[/snapback]

Nice!

Though... I don't think BV would be caught dead in a Beetle.

...not that he should really be in anybody's angry mob either!

[ocnblu]

As for your kitchen floor, I think a neutral color that goes with both the counter and cabinets might relieve the need to paint the cabinets. I would go to my local home improvement superstore and check out some samples.

[Cory Wolfe]

Colour suggestions?

197088[/snapback]

Colour? You mean color, right? I love this kind of stuff, having set foot in your country nearing some 100 different times!

Wait...you like those colors? Seriously? Which one was the one that was too flamboyant? One would feel like you're living inside a jar of Grey Poupon in one room. The other room would be what was left after Jack Nicholson got done with his axe-work in "The Shining."

Man, I am so conservative when it comes to colors. My rule: if it works in the Eddie Bauer catalog, then it will fly. What does this mean?

Tans - Navy Blue

Tans - Burgundy

Tans - Forest Green

Various shades of tan together

Sometimes, clients don't have a budget for interior design when their building shell gets done. So I have to do some color selections. I always pick colors based on earth tones with some of those combos listed above thrown in. Most of the time it's real simple and tasteful for general purpose offices and the clients like it. Sometimes, when they find some budget and they get an interior designer, they get real weird with colors (poop brown, olives, etc. etc., sometimes on different walls). I would NOT want to work in a space like that. I like real neutral and simple colors. Their &#036;h&#33; will go out of style in a hurry compared to the selections I make. The last project I worked on was a real nice beige exterior with dark metallic blue metal accents and a lighter shade of blue tinted glass. It came out real nice.

TYD: go the understated route!

[ocnblu]

In the kitchen, floor tiles to match the counter top would work, but dark colors tend to shrink a room. White to draw from the cabinet hardware would also work, but you'd have to keep them clean.

[sciguy_0504]

Time to watch HGTV or Trading Space.

I hear you. I probably would have picked conservative colours if I'd painted it myself, but seeing the gold/mustard living room and maroon/burgundy bedroom in person, you'd understand why I like them. Everyone who's seen the place has liked those colours. It's just the kitchen that tends to offend, and the Barney-the-Dinosaur / Eggplant purple front hallway, before I painted it Forest Green.

Oh, I also forgot to mention above. The "wierd wall" was also purple, and I painted that dark brown. It makes it so it doesn't stick out quite as much, and it goes with the gold walls around it.

[lakefire]

Since we are now posting interior pictures here is our downstairs. We haven't gotten around to decorating upstairs.

[sciguy_0504]

^^^ Very nice!

Home interiors are nice, but we gotta have more faces to put to names in this thread.

Yeah, I was at the Haircuttery last night. I actually took some pictures of my truck for Member's rides, but uploadit.org says they're too big and I'm too dumb to make them work.

Bob, what ARE you talking about?

As for his birthday, he happened to be one of the lucky few I actually noticed on the site had a bday that day. I almost never scroll to the very bottom of the forum page.

Nevermind Bobby, Paulie. He needs a bf, that's all. :AH-HA_wink:

The typical idiotic and caustic side of ocn rears it ugly head. Your low self-esteem causes you to look at ANYTHING you consider a "clue" or "indication" in others (as you do with several people on this board, or even celebrities and personalities in the spotlight) so that you can swell your ranks to make you feel better in a "misery likes company" sort of way.

If that's what I wanted, I would have pursued that option...as I have with all of the other goals I have gone after. My comment was merely based on the almost excessive level of flirtation one would have never expected on an automotive forum and the few that overindulge in it....sometimes funny and sometimes annonying. What a jerk!

By the way, this comment does not go out to those who might have those feelings and inclinations and can enjoy C&G without starting or derailing ongoing threads about or toward their sexual proclivities, respectively. Back to pictures, I hope...

Now, did I deserve that? Besides, you started this round, with your comment to Paulie about Nick's birthday. It was a joke, however lame, something you've seen from me on a regular basis.

I like boobs. Not exactly sure why. I sleep well on a girls chest--and being an insomniac, that's a good thing. Oh, and I'm an expert bra-snapper: I can do it without the girl getting overly pissed off with me.

[ocnblu]

Boobies don't really bother me. They're rather nice, imo. Just not my first choice.

But this is another post without a picture, so I will shut up now.
