Cool subject, though other sites do this much better.

You know what really grinds my gears?Titles with words like "Spectacular" or "Mind-blowing"...

I keep thinking, "Man, if that building were anywhere popular, it'd have been made into million-dollar lofts a long time ago." Especially that church. (When churches are abandoned, does god have to fill out a "change of address" card?) Old Gothic-style churches just beg to be made into awesome homes. Who doesn't love huge stained-glass windows... besides people who have to worry about heating in the winter?Tangent: Three most annoying words used in titles:Stunning: "... nope. Still conscious."Awe inspiring: "...awwwww inspiring, maybe..." (and not the cute 'aww' but the 'you totally missed' aww.)LQQK: "......"

I need some pics on that abandoned amusement/water park you pass when driving from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. That has to be the most ill-conceived place of all time. The place is in the middle of nowhere.

My uncle and aunt bought a little old church and made an awesome home out of it, and I think the people they sold it to turned it into a bed and breakfast.

Utterly, utterly spectacular. Who'd have thought that urban decay could be so beautiful (in a strangely desolate way)?
