In one of my many fruitless forays into real estate commitment, I took my mother with me to look at a townhouse that was for sale. The place looked okay until we got into the bathroom, which was painted deep purple.
My mom peers in the bathtub and says, “Oh look, they have a cat!”
I looked into the tub and said, “I don’t think that’s cat hair.”
“Oh … ewww.”
To paraphrase a line from Will & Grace, “There was so much hair in the bathtub I thought it was going to ask if I wanted a falafel.”
I didn’t look at buying any more places for several years after that.
