@2 I know, when it said "a considerable sum of money" I'm thinking millions and then the article goes on to say it cost them $163,000. And is their name for real?

@2,

That must be why they're so upset. The ugliness of their property is available for all to see.

@5,

More than you. But, of course, I don't live in my mother's basement.

For the sake of SLOG, I am going to bail on any further interaction with the troll Kesh.

Her point in being here is obvious. It is boring.

Bye Kesh...I hope you get over you fat insecurity before you stroke out, have a heart attack, or develop type 2 diabetes. Prayers to you.

Bullshit, ecce hobo. As I've already noted, your world would fall apart without the attention you get by being yourself -- a pus-filled sore on the face of humanity.

Kesh: let him be. He's never going to go away if he keeps getting a reaction from you.
