    Oh sure, hang an oil painting right above a woodstove. What could go wrong?

    Sadly that's not a woodstove, that would be too good.

    That's probably an Aga style stove. Those are mostly made with cast-iron and use radiant heat to cook. Each oven 'compartent' has a diffrent function (eg. top left is warming, bottom left is for roasting and a big one for baking). They work kinda like a masonry heater. And are meant to be always on.

    Maybe they just hate the painting and want to cover it in oil, smoke, food, and fire

    I didn't mind it until I saw the painting and now I'm just scared of it!

    Clearly, the painting has special meaning to the owner and significance to the location. It's likely made of heat-resistant material, and...

    Oh, who are we kidding. It's the same width as the stove and is matchy-match blue.

    Can't wait for the addition of spaghetti sauce splatters. And the house fire.

    Definitely nobody has ever used a frying pan on this stove.

    Surely everyone understands a real painting can't take the heat.

    It's obviously an OLED TV.

    You mean this AI generated slop? No, can't say I care for it. Even if it were real, no handles on the smaller oven doors, fire hazard oil painting (that would be FILTHY the first time you boiled a sauce/soup) over a gas stove, no vent hood or overhead light... no thank you.

    This is definitely AI but similar ovens used to be built and, I'm sure, still are.

    However, there are still plenty of issues.

    Open flame plus a flammable painting. And the painting is right over the oven where it will get covered in grease. And that's a gas range with no hood.

    There's a reason ovens usually open from the top these days. It's safer and allows you to peak without opening the entire oven or leaning at an odd angle. Locking handles are also no longer used because little kids can climb in and accidentally get stuck.

    The multiple drawers sounds like a good idea but it just means that you can't cook large dishes. Usually you'd only see styles like this in restaurant kitchens because they will know how large of an oven they need and can benefit from having multiple sizes for different dishes.

    Lol ovens like this existed.

    My parents literally have one of them right now in their kitchen.

    They are less than ideal for sure.

    I know they exist in that style. This one is AI though. You can see some tell tale signs if you zoom in. Continuity errors with the boards on either side of the painting, utensils and cutting boards with weird curves and abstract shapes, the missing handles, knobs with weird protrusions, a window with a taller frame on the bottom so it cant open more than 6 inches, sails on the painted ship that tmake no sense, etc.

    An overly tidy house is often a sign of imbalance, ahem. 😜

    Could be ADHD or anxiety too. Possibly OCD as well.

    I guess my point is that 'mental illness' is more succinct.

    Quite frankly I'm just lazy. I've always hated picking up my things and I've struggled with organization since I was a child. I think with me...my parents never really got on me about being neat and organized. So I never got into the habit. Still turned out fine! It just means I frantically clean before people come over lol.

    What happened to the old fashioned "you're a slob/slacker"?

    Why does everything needs to automatically point to some sort of affliction? That is worrisome.

    "Do we like this?"

    That's the biggest cant-think-for-myself red flag I've ever heard.

    I mean, asking for others opinions is a pretty normal and social behavioral thing to do... No?

    Things I like I find others tend not to, so if I'm making something to appeal to others and not myself, I ask what they like.

    Ofc this example of a picture hung over a stove is.... Asinine, but my point still stands in response to your statement.

    I mean no glass on the oven door is a little bit inconvenient and there is no visible range hood (you can have them built into the range itself), othewise there is nothing wrong with it. cleaning a gas stove is more work, but some people swear by gas. the painting can be a glass print if you really want it. I don't understand why this qualifies as a meme

    I guess AI doesn’t concern itself with practicality. What’s up with the weird shaped spoons and spoonhandles?

    Do you not cook?

    Spatula come in a huge variety of shapes for different purposes.

    Please don't do that with an electric whisk! At least, not in my house.

    I don’t understand the problem here. I don’t really cook, but I bet this adds a really nice texture and creates a really homogeneous soup.

    If you want a homogenous soup use

    And what if you dont want a homogenous soup, but one with nice big chunks of potatoe, carrots or whatever?

    Listen maybe some people can’t afford both kitchen appliances. Obviously you’re gonna pick the one you make make whipped cream with. Obviously.

    I used to work for a company that made these kinds of almost art pieces. You definitely got a certain sort of client.

    To be clear you can actually use them to cook food, they do work, but they are definitely more focused on the aesthetics side of things than the functionality. Having said that they do have things like timers and different cooking modes.

    They come with instructions on how to clean them and it looks like a hell of a process so I don't think I'd ever want to cook with them.
