Nobody ever casually thinks about their own name.
So trying to find out some strangers name through telepathy constitutes at least a level 3 psychic interrogation.
At which point the person becomes aware that their thoughts are being sifted through.
Even the toughest conclude that can't possibly be a human doing that and they always run away in fear.

Sounds like an opportunity to do some remodeling. Never complain about too much space!
It was mostly tongue in cheek.
But for some reason they went with like a 14' long by 5' wide bathroom?
That probably wasn't intentional, since that's a really odd dimension. It's just what they had left over. How old is the house? Mine's like 75 years old so I don't have any funky rooms like that. But whenever I go into newer houses I usually see one room that just doesn't make any sense. |

I've no doubt it was left over space and someone wasn't using their best thinking cap.
The bedroom next to this bath is roughly 14 x 12 and there a 6 x 2 closet taking up room........so they could have made the bath the usual 8 x 5 and had a 4 x 5 walk-in closet instead.
IIRC, it was built in around 2002.
What I don't like about many new homes is the smallish room sizes. They'll call 9 x 10 room a 3rd Bedroom........ maybe for a newborn? But an older, growing child? That's just too tiny, imo. The home I had built in 1995 didn't have any bedroom smaller than 12 x 15.

Or the "master" bedroom is like 25x25 or some other ridiculous size. I question the activities of anyone who needs a bedroom that big.... |

Hey it's America. Fly that freak flag! Were you here the one day someone linked a house listing and in the pictures there was a sex swing and other hard core BDSM equipment? That was hilarious. Apparently it made the news and they had to change the listing. |

Kids? Need for multiple bathrooms to accommodate? |

Now the joy of loading everything again

Not unless we adopt a few

No, actually they did not. The original owner was one of the deaths here, too. Died kinda young in his 50s, IIRC.
Seemed more like just a nice big home built to this area's standard of what a nicer neighborhood would have.
The only reason we could afford it was because after the original woman moved to another state, her niece? was renting it from her and sublet to several college aged kids that pretty much trashed the place. So nobody wanted to buy it just looking at all the work needed to bring it back to livable.
We got quite the price by seeing the potential.

I recently changed my doctor and hospital, and the new system requires interaction with a digital portal instead of just calling the office and talking to a human. I'm old, I have a not-smart cell phone and can barely manage posting on this board, let alone managing to wade through all the healthcare paperwork online.
I couldn't figure out how to sign a document online, so when I went for my appointment, I asked if they could print out the document so I could sign it. Nope. So I had to produce hardcopy proof of my health insurance and my Medicare card. It made absolutely no sense. By the time I got to the exam room, my blood pressure was way higher than normal.
I don't have any 'youngsters' in my life, like a niece or nephew that can navigate all the portal stuff. What's an old woman to do? Healthcare is being made inaccessible to those not digitally fluent.
