Would you judge this in someone’s house?

I’m currently re-decorating parts of my house. I’ve come across a website that sells prints for the walls and I’ve found some I really like;

This house is full of love, laughter, and a little bit of what the fuck.

Pardon the mess, I decided not to give a shit today.

If you’re happy and you know it, it’s your meds!

As you can probably tell, our house is already a little bit eccentric with its decor… but would you judge someone for having prints like that on the wall with children living in the house or am I just overthinking it? 😅

Well, you asked... I judge anyone who puts words on their walls, whatever they are.

Oh lord

i have a sign in the downstairs loo that says

‘please don’t poo in the downstairs loo’

(because it’s a macerater and it’s shit. Pardon the pun)

Wow, so you have the infamous as-seen-on-TV 'downstairs toilet into which we do not pass solids'!!

You could always try changing it for a Saniflo 33!

Yes, I would judge.

DragonFly98 · 28/02/2025 17:46

Yes , sad and inappropriate for a family to home. It’s say look at me being a bit naughty.

Tattletail · 28/02/2025 17:48

I wouldn't judge for the content. But I put these in the "live, love, laugh" bracket and would judge you harshly from that point of view 😃

But who cares really. I'm assuming only close family and friends enter your house regularly and I doubt this choice of decor would cause them to go NC.

Bentoforthehorde · 28/02/2025 17:49

It's amazing to me that people can maintain haughty attitudes whilst going out of their way to be dicks.

Would you judge this?
a) Yes/no.
b) you sound like a try hard edge lord with poor boundaries and I question your parenting. How embarrassing.

Cutting strangers down on the Internet is pathetic, and telling people they asked for it is a dick move.

I'm not saying everyone has to be nice, just don't be a dick.

tuvamoodyson · 28/02/2025 17:50

Yes.

Newfoundzestforlife · 28/02/2025 17:51

Only a complete and utter snobby D-head would judge you for some humorous signs in your house....If you like them, get them, life's too short to worry about what other people might think!

Newfoundzestforlife · 28/02/2025 17:52

Vaxtable · 28/02/2025 15:27

I would not comment but yes it’s naff and unacceptable and yes I would judge you

At least you're honest about your snobbery....

ColourBlueColourPurple · 28/02/2025 17:52

I wouldn't judge but they are very tacky.

TheEllisGreyMethod · 28/02/2025 17:55

Incredibly naff and chavvy. Also screams you think you're funny and a bit out there when you're in fact v ordinary and a bit dull. I would cringe.

NDblackhole · 28/02/2025 17:55

It's your house so who cares - no one will say anything and peoples thoughts aren't hurtful if you don't know - we all have thoughts and usually judgement thoughts come from a more personal perspective/experience/taught code of life...but since you asked I would like it but prob would get ones without swearing!

KilkennyCats · 28/02/2025 17:56

Irredeemably tacky. But that’s clearly not a issue for you…

Weedoormatnomore · 28/02/2025 17:59

Talipesmum · 28/02/2025 11:03

I wouldn’t say anything to you but I would think they’re rather naff greetings card and also wouldn’t think it’s ok to have that up on the wall with young kids in the house.

Same

EvanBuckleysWife · 28/02/2025 18:00

I like them Blush I’d prefer something like that over “live laugh love” any day Grin

Stirabout · 28/02/2025 18:01

I didn’t pick up from your first post that your house was eccentric tbh.
Generally I don’t like these ‘sayings’ on the wall. Although if someone writes them on the toilet wall then at least there’s something to read whilst there.

Cuppachuchu · 28/02/2025 18:04

Put some nice pictures on your walls instead. These modern wisdom saying date very quickly. Also, tacky.

Mmm
are they modern wisdom ?
I’m thinking maybe…just words

TinklySnail · 28/02/2025 18:06

@Rainbows678
Who cares what other people think.
People who judge you don’t belong in your life.
Don’t ever let anonymous MN users tell you how to live or what’s inappropriate or not.

Cuppachuchu · 28/02/2025 18:08

Yeah, sorry. I should have said "modern wisdom". 🤷

bigvig · 28/02/2025 18:21

Sorry OP but you asked. I'd think you were trying far too hard to be interesting. Words printed on the wall are almost always pretty trashy and cheesy.

It is a bloody saniflo. Load of shit they are ol
we are on our second in 5 years and now buy caravan loo roll and it seems to be coping

IridiumSky · 28/02/2025 18:47

Not witty. Not clever. Just deeply naff, chavtastic and offensive, children or not.

Why do such things even exist?

As somebody else said, it would give the impression that you consider yourself so ‘edgy’ and ‘cool’, but in reality are just boring, without ideas of your own.

In short. Don’t do it! 😀

If you so desperately want the word ‘fuck’ on your wall, just buy a spray can and pretend you’re a street artist. At least you could say it’s art.

What’s the actual point of a toilet you can’t shit in?

They were tacky and naff when you'd start seeing similar 20yrs ago! When we were recently looking to move house and I saw the standard ones without swearing, I do wonder what would posses someone to buy something like that?

If you really want such tat, have a look in charity shops where they will be very cheap!

"I do wonder what would posses someone to buy something like that?"

That would be my reaction. Those signs are tacky and juvenile, not quirky or eccentric like the OP seems to think. I'd feel a bit of second hand embarrassment if I saw them hanging in someone's home.
