re: When asked "How big is your house?" Do you exaggerate, understate, or say exactly?

Ahh so this is a subtle brag thread.

It’s such a hassle having to understate my sq ft

---

LOL, no. No mansions here.

Why would anyone ask how big my house is. What a weird question.

2300 sq ft w/ 1500 finished basement.

I generally add the basement even though it can’t be listed at 3,800 sq ft.

3617

Westbank balla, bitches.

I'm at 2100 and some change. 



I say a "a little over 2000 sqft"

According to Zillow ours is 2400. It's an older remodeled house that we don't really use half of. It's too big for our family of 3 now to be honest. It was cheaper than a 1600 sq ft new house when we bought it.

Wtf does it matter. So weird.

I tell the I live in a single wide with soft spots on the floor and only one roof leak. The skirt is all torn up so there are feral cats having litters under my trailer but I let my pit bull clean them out from time to time when I let him off the chain attached to the tree. I keep foil on the windows for energy efficiency and have a 65" Ultra-HDTV with surround sound to watch wrasslin and monster truck pulls.

Your shack had a roof? What, you think you’re better than me?


Well, I say it was a shack. It was a shack to us, but really it was a hole in the ground in a landfill with a rusty piece of tin on top. And every morning we’d have to wake up an hour before the sun came up, clean the landfill, eat a handful of rotting fish, then go to work at the mine for 13 hours for 2 bucks a week. Then when we’d get home our dear old dad would thrash us with a cane until we went to sleep.

But we were happy, because we were poor

I had to walk 8 miles to school and 12 miles back uphill both ways except for the gator filled river we had to swim across.

I’m at 3,300 sq ft heated/cooled. I usually just say 3,000.

Who tf counts their garage and porch?

Who the frick is asking you people this shite, though?

A guy was looking into a new central air system and he asked what company I had used and the cost. He then asked how many sqft my house was.
