Whats with the little gimp nook behind the fridge? The spiders in there are probably so big they have names.
I was trying to think of the words to describe that area and you came up with something much better than I could have.
Friend had cellar spiders in his bathtub in college. Of course they all had appropriate (i.e. stupid) names.
When I was a kid my parents had a shower in the basement. It's normal for my area, a lot of outdoor manual laborers back in the day so having a shower in the basement meant you could come home after work and not drag the stink and filth of work into the house. I didn't do outdoor manual labor but I worked in restaurants, which brings with it its own stink and filth, and I also often got home at like 3am, so I used the basement shower om an effort to keep the house clean and not wake everyone else up. This meant that I had to establish something I called the Basement Spider Detente. We had tons of spiders down there, and I try to be respectful of everyone's right to be alive absent any unwarranted aggression. The deal we reached was as follows: the entire basement and garage belonged to the spiders. They were free to roam, hunt, and generally spide however they saw fit. The shower was off-limits, though, and the penalty for coming within jumping distance of my naked bits was summary execution. I like to think that somewhere near Pittsburgh is a genetic line of cellar spiders that differ from the rest of their species in being extremely hydrophobic. I hope their line succeeds and confounds biologists in the centuries after I go to wherever it is we all must one day go.
Wait... does that mean your friend never bathed so the spiders would live?
My last house was infested with them, and not through lack of trying to get rid.
It was an old stone house and cold damp corners were everywhere.
I woke up with one of the leggy fuckers carrying an egg sac on my face and decided to move out there and then.
gimp nook
I don't know when I'll get to use it but I'm stealing it.
Cellar spiders have more relative square footage in their loft than we do in our entire apartments
I would walk into those pillars multiple times per day
Not to mention at night
This feels like 3D objects that loaded inside of another object in a video game or something
You've no-clipped into the backrooms.
It puts the lotion on its skin or it doesn't get any more bread

As a kitchen designer I can't look away. I know it's still there if I don't look.
The whole picture feels like that kitchen was made by aliens to put abducted humans in it and make them feel like home.
I think those are terribly placed clipboards with sheets of paper on them.
Maybe but in either case that most definitely isn’t bread.
It's for the wall-goblin. The goblin that lives in the walls.
The goblin's going to eat something. It's in everyone's best interest that something be bread.
How does this happen? Why would anyone build this kitchen this way?
You start with a house old enough to have the kitchen designed around a wood stove (which goes in that alcove). Someone eventually rips it out and tries to modernise the kitchen, leaving a weird space and a kitchen layout which is a bit off. The original walls and room layout are often messed with as well, which doesn't help.
Gotta say… the comments about it being in the basement have gotta be correct. No windows… weird layout like too many appliances crammed into any available spots.. the creepy wall hole for… idek. And the beams that 100% Stubs your toe with every midnight snack mission…
And those magnets yo…
That tile is doing this room no favors.
Looks like a couple of used, dusty sponges, weird sponge clothes to me. I'm more worried about: Everything else.
It's an offering for whatever lives in that hole.
Looks a bit like an old apartment of mine
That you lived in voluntarily? Was it… nice?
My friend, one does not live in such a place, one merely exists.
No. It was terrible, it had roaches, mice, ants, all sorts of things. The meat chest in our landlords basement failed and they didn't know - they had a lot of meat rotting in there and it smelled like corpses as well as corpse flies all over.
So thankfully because we lived there we saved enough money for a substantial down payment for a nice home we've been living in phew!
None of this feels right, at all
Something sinister lives here
Weird, did that nook use to be a dumb waiter?
There's a new, shiny kitchen upstairs which stays new and shiny as this one degrades. It's the Kitchen of Dorian Gray.
Bread?
On the ledge on the big hole. Near the fridge.
Is that a bed ?
