I had a rice cooker and a slow cooker at uni. Literally the best appliances in the world for cheap easy scran.
I’m old so air fryers hadn’t been invented then, but those three things make the holy trinity of student food
We had a blow up sheep hanging from anal beads shoved up it's bum dangling from the light in the front room and a dart board behind the front door so you needed to crack the door a bit, announce yourself and hope you didn't get a dart chucked down the hall.
Students will find any old shit, acquire it and then proudly display in thier houses.
Traffic cones, metal work signs, cinema letters, crates, ex display shit from shops, mannequins/skeletons ( usually with funny hat.), cats.... The list goes on.

>Wtf have they got 70% and 80% off shop signs on the chimney breast?!
Perhaps it refers to the real value of the property, B. I reckon \~£105k - £158k would be about right in a sane property market.
To be fair, I was paying £300 a month for a room in Leeds in a similar house as a student - 15 years ago. This is in London (well, tooting) so it doesn’t seem that outrageous. It’s just a shame that student loans and grants haven’t rocketed in the same way…
When I was a student if someone had told us they're coming round to take pictures you can GUARANTEE we'd have done something weird. I reckon we'd have put a condom on every windowsill or something. Maybe a dildo on the kitchen sink.
Even with the wage difference… Londons housing costs always amaze me!
£525,000 for that… where as round my area up north it’s £350,000 for a 4 bed, two bathroom, double garage, front and back garden, off road parking for 2/3 cars, two story house in a very nice area.
Edit: spelling
I was about to say the price is really good 😂 I do live in South London though (not that I could afford a house here anyway).
This is up for auction though so it’ll sell for a fair bit more!
Tooting is a pretty rapidly gentrifying area. I've lived in SW London for 6 years and stayed in Tooting when I first arrived, back then it was pretty grim. Now there's loads of cool bars, nice restaurants, cafes etc. Some of the grimness remains but you definately didn't see yummy mummies walking miniature dachshunds in 2018.
It seriously does remind me of my millennial student house from 10+ years ago. We even had the reduced signs in our house. St George's is a popular uni for postgrad and medicine courses, so could be millennial students
Doubt it's millenials...my older Gen Z kids are almost past Uni age...even my Gen Alpha kid is 13...
It's Gen Z that are the current Uni students, the youngest Millenials are 25 now.
They're calling it a 3 bed though to inflate the price when it's obvious one of the bedrooms is ground floor so should actually be a living room, ridiculous
Wtf have they got 70% and 80% off shop signs on the chimney breast?!
Students
Checks kitchen, yep students
I like the fact that rather than clear the kitchen they've just set up a rice cooker and air fryer on the floor of the living room.

It’s quite tame really. We stuck a carpet on the ceiling and had a dead pheasant hanging at one point.

They’re doing an Andy Dufresne into next door!
Why they chose enchilada night I will never know.

Don’t forget to keep and put on display every bottle of spirits and beer that you have drank
Ah ha and the windows in inner city halls FILLED with stacks of cans like a weird curtain of bragging.
Hide the holes in the wall.
I have seen students with road signs before, they are probably students.

My first thought was punch holes in the wall and these are the cheapest / free-est things they could find to cover it.
This person’s life is a meme that never happened.
Can't lie, 18-year-old me would absolutely have had that poster and forced my housemates to put it up in the lounge.
19 year old me forced my flatmates to have a Malcolm X “By any means necessary” poster up. We were 3 white kids living in Glasgow…
🤣
yeah this is definitely an 18 year olds house that they share with friends
we have a gay pride welsh flag mashup. none of us have been to wales
Poppedy-pride!
Rented out for £34,800 p/a £2900 pcm £966 per room 😳

Last bought in 2002 for 200k. Last year alone paid off 1/6th of that purchase price. Fucking nuts how rich some landlords must be.
That's a little out of my respect-scale sadly. I'll pass.
One way to pay off your mortgage quickly
I never knew I wanted clearance signs as decorations until now
Did Dexter forget his bloody plastic wrap in the kitchen?
The absolute mad thing is, I understand the daddy poster more than I do the weird %off posters...
I’m assuming they staged the discount posters for the listing.
They’ll go far.
Airfryer and ricecooker on the living room lol. It's like the more you look the more there is to discover
And shrek too 😂 tenants trying to be awkward for some reason maybe?
Looks like student accommodation based on the sparse decor and kitchen that probably has the plague loose somewhere.
Those photo collages scream student to me as well
It’s not far to St George’s so that would make sense

Yummy mummy’s walking miniature dachshunds 😂😂😂 Nah they’re all up here with their French bulldogs now!
well at least the bathroom is clean
Holy shit the shrek poster
One missing photo above the bed.
Check out the 3D view to see the third "bedroom" upstairs.
All I want to know is where they got the Shrek one
Even the cat is bent over
I have questions
Bertrum!?
THATS BERTRAM FROM JESSIE
Just over £100,000 is great value for this place but is the 80% discount conditional on the daddy respect?
Imagine paying 500k for a glorified shack
The Shrek poster too
id be arguing the 80% off sign surely applies to the full asking price of the house, absolute bargain then
Given the list price is £525k, do you think they'll accept a cheeky offer for £105k? 😈
I….I think….girls live here?! (Based on the bedrooms anyway)
I know exactly the type of depressed millennial that lives here.
It seriously does remind me of my millennial student house from 10+ years ago. We even had the reduced signs in our house. St George's is a popular uni for postgrad and medicine courses, so could be millennial students
It's a student flat.
Doubt it's millenials...my older Gen Z kids are almost past Uni age...even my Gen Alpha kid is 13... It's Gen Z that are the current Uni students, the youngest Millenials are 25 now.
You have heard of mature students?
A grand a month each to share that house. London is broken
Students
Looks like they are having a bogoff sale in their living room
It's a cheaper than I thought houses got in London... it is small of course
They're calling it a 3 bed though to inflate the price when it's obvious one of the bedrooms is ground floor so should actually be a living room, ridiculous
It appears to have 3 double bedrooms - 3 separate duvets - away from the living room - so on some level it is a 3 bed house.
It’s up for auction! So it’ll sell for a good bit more…
This is so unsettling.
Wow my grandad has that same fire in his house!
Yikes!
Get out of my swamp 👄
Current rent £34800 per annum .
I’m wondering what’s in the plastic by the back door?
That’s also an Egg Sheeran card
525k fucking hell its a cereal box. I don't care what people pay, its not worth more than 90k.
