Whether we're talking about the subreddit Crappy Design or the Instagram account Ugly Irish Houses, the Internet seems obsessed with tasteless crimes against aesthetics and functionality. If you are too, the Twitter account "Cursed Architecture" is right up your alley.

Its hellish content includes strange angles, melting paint, vaguely threatening toilets, stairs that lead to nowhere, and more. Basically, the kind of stuff that architects and interior designers would imagine in a horror-comedy. But believe me, you don't have to be an industry pro to appreciate these pictures. They're so bad, us regular folk will get them as well. Enjoy!

    This is a basement bath room, the toilet is raised so its pipes are above municipal sewer lines. You do NOT want your pipes to be lower.. you'd get all the s**t from the sewer lines.

    This was literally my bathroom in a basement apartment I lived in many moons ago, except mine was tiled and blue, not paneled and carpeted. The bathtub was in a separate room across the hall. No door, no curtain, nothing. Just ungodly steps and a sink.

    The Hustler Casino in California had recently opened, and I drove by it to and from work. One night, the big CASINO sign was malfunctioning, two letters kept flashing off and on. So the sign was announcing to the world "CASINO... ASIN ...CASINO... ASIN ...". I called them to let them know and they thought it was a prank until they went outside and looked at it. The next night, it was fixed.
