You guys hate carpet in the bathroom? I can one up that. My parents have a bathroom with carpet that goes up the bathtub walls! Bonus points for the terrible wallpaper.
Haha we just rented a house last weekend that had carpet that not only went up the side of the tub but had about 6 inches of carpet on the top edge too. Deep pile stuff too, not as low as in OP's picture. Quite a sight to see in person
It doesn't matter if it's a carpet to wipe your feet when you leave the bathroom so the floor doesn't get wet, but if it's like in the picture, hmm..
Imagine "something" (you know what that means) dropped on your carpet and left just like that, it would be better if you knew that and changed the carpet right away, but if someone else dropped "something" and just kept quiet.

This is one of those posts I want to downvote just because I'm angry I saw it.

I wouldn't judge you for doing so

This is good because you can pee on the floor and you don’t have to clean it up right???

If they had the courage of their convictions they would've carpeted the inside of the tub too.

Can you imagine, that would feel like having a dirty sponge between your toes
SallyTAB@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 3y
I just audibly gasped. This seems like a sensory nightmare getting out of the shower, or during periods of high humidity.

What a terrible day to have the ability to imagine that in vivid detail. What a cursed image, well done OP.

I was going to say I was impressed by how clean it "looks" - then I read this comment and threw up in my mouth a little.

Not sure why carpet in the bathroom gets so much hate. Drying off is as easy as rolling around on the floor.

That linked reddit thread is accusing the poster of being a karma bot. Does lemmy already have those?
mobiuscoffee@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 3y
But there is no karma here?
LillianVS@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Nope! We do not have karma bots. Karma is about as valuable as the zimbabwe dollar here
Moonrise2473@feddit.it · 2 pts · 3y
That's the main disadvantage of Lemmy. I am paying my rent converting the reddit karma to dollars... 😢

I thought carpet in the bathroom was normal as a kid, since that's what we had in our house.

I'm split on the wallpaper. By itself, I don't hate it, but that carpet really commands the room in a not great way.

Had carpet like that in England many years ago. Twp primary school boys and a bunch of their friends in the house - things got squelchy real quick
