To think friends decor is gross?

[walkthroughtulips]

Stayed at a friends house this weekend with mutual friends and they raved about how nice her living room is and I was baffled.

It’s an extremely dark grey with one wall with equally dark grey wallpaper. Brown sofas and a yellow armchair. Huge jar with pampas grass. Grey carpet with a cream rug. Black plastic tv stand, concrete side tables.

She must think my deco is gross and shit. But I genuinely was so baffled by their reaction.

Grey has been out for years love. As have concrete nesting tables. Drab.

Judgey McJudgerson has spoken! Drab!!🙄

Why do you care, OP? Just stop and ask yourself why you care so much about someone’s decor that you took the time out of your life to slag it off on an anonymous forum? It’s a bit sad.

It’s Judgey McJudgeface actually.

Could you be any more jealous. It’s such a shame they think so badly of your deco. Sad times.

I'm in the market for new decor at the moment and I wish someone would tell all the showrooms that grey is out, because the fucker is definitely still very much present. I hope it doesn't take as long to leave as feature walls did.

Having said that, if I liked grey rooms and concrete nesting tables, why should I give a shit if they're in or out?

I don’t think it’s morally superior I think it’s a private conversation between two people and not a forum. Choices whether decor or clothes or university choice or even spouses will be discussed by others. . this is human nature. Humans analyze and discuss others. And I don’t think commenting on decor is “nasty” opinionated maybe but not nasty.

Jealous of what exactly? Bad taste and a terrible paint job?

And who thinks badly of my deco?

You're the one who's tasteless here, going by your behaviour. This is no way to talk about your friends

Nobody who isn’t jealous would behave the way you have. It’s so transparent. It’s pitiful that you place so much of your value in material things that you actually felt the need to post about it. It’s not normal behaviour. It’s one thing slagging it off to people you know in real life (still pathetic) but it’s a whole other level to post it on here 😆 In fact, I’m starting to wonder if this is actually genuine.

Yeah, I think that @walkthroughtulips is a wind up merchant because they aren't backing down (and 'gross' was so emotive a word to use in the first place, I was expecting to read about litter trays on kitchen surfaces or some such). Of course , while posting about her friend's decor in such an unpleasant way is not nice, some of the responses are also unpleasant personal attacks and unlikely to change her mind.

Your friends, which is why you said ‘She must think my deco is gross and shit.’

Ok, you've just made yourself sound even more horrible as a person with your updates.

You started a thread being awful about someone's decor. Describing it in a way they may recognise themselves. And then your updates are even more judgey.

If grey, concrete, yellow and pampas grass aren't "in" anymore, it's weird that you can still get them in all shops currently. Maybe try having a look at what's available and not in your own head.

I don't care about fashion or trends. But you are not the person to say what's in or out, clearly.

If it is real they’re a horrible ‘friend’. I’d rather have that decor in my life over having someone like the OP.

I think it's real, but it started to get sarcastic and defensive after the bad reception.

😂😂 do you think I’d care about a “bad reception” from nameless random people on the internet?

Hello and welcome to 2024 where you can buy anything and everything in shops and online. It still doesn’t make the decor “nice”.

Yes, of course. Look at your reaction!

If you didn't care what they thought, you wouldn't have asked them what they thought!

Welcome to 2024 where the general consensus is that people should be kind.

You are right that it being available doesn't make it nice because "nice" decor is subjective. However, if you can buy anything then it must be "in" because it wouldn't be for sale with no demand.

"Nice" people however don't slate their friends on the internet. So it's not subjective to say you aren't nice.

I really hope she, and your other friends, see this and you get what you deserve. Aside from the upset it would cause your "friend" to see what you're saying about her to absolute strangers with no motive other than a different taste to her.

Is there a reason why you are being so obnoxious in your posts. I don’t get it.

@walkthroughtulips are you sure you aren't just disappointed that after observing the pampas grass, you chucked your car keys in the fruit bowl and stripped off to the dismay of the other confused guests? You sound bitter you didn't get laid. Are you an incel?

Well according to you in your op your mates.

Your mates all disagree.

She'd obviously done 'statement decor' so your friends were nice enough to compliment it. Whatever they really thought!
