I am not saying I have a Photographic Memory (I am just sayin')
I was at the good old FIRC a few months ago and they had a pile of magazines for free. One magazine was Metropolitan Home May 2009. The homes featured were pretty much amazing and the polar opposite of my "rustic" home.
While perusing the magazine, I came upon this picture of a bathroom that belonged to the featured architects/homeowners' sons.

For some reason the picture sent a chill through my body. I had no idea why. I just stared at it for a while but couldn't figure out why I had that reaction to the photograph.
Flash forward to yesterday. I am sitting on my porch looking through the magazine again and when I came across the picture, it hit me. I know where I had seen the bathroom before.
Do you remember the movie THE SHINING? Holy crap. Remember this scene?
Uncanny right? That movie was made in 1980.
Apparently, turning to horror movies for bathroom design inspiration is common. While searching google images to find the Shining bathroom, I found this picture.
I especially like the added blood-red paint detail.
I love it so much I am going to see if Matt will let me remodel our bathroom.

Another article in Metropolitan Home May 2009 featured a stunning Boston home owned by these two ladies.

Notice anything weird? No, I am not referring to the fact that they are two chicks. I am talking about (that in my opinion) they look like clones.
Damn I am hot! I need to find my clone so I can marry her.
Well what do I know? All white people pretty much look alike to me. Except for Matt. I can usually pick him out in a crowd. Well, unless I have had a few cocktails and then I might end up walking up to any random blue-eyed guy between the age of 30-60 and demanding that he buy me chicken wings and a chardonnay. Not that that has ever happened. I am just saying it could.

You are right! That bathroom is creepy.
you are hilarious!!! I think you should do a chicken wing and chardonnay shower curtain.
All white people look alike to you. Ha! Hilarious. Laughing out loud and calling my BFF right now!
Wow that bathroom is horrific. Yuck! Having a degree in interior/architecture design sometimes does mean you have amazingly good taste. I'm just saying! :)
yeah, when i design my next hallway, i'll be sure to include wax figures of the twins. marvelous.
If I thought I'd have to enter that bathroom every day, I'd stink to high heaven... arrggghhhh!... having a degree also means you try to push the envelope whenever you can get away with it... no, you cannot redo you bathroom until this image is way out of your mind... I'm just sayin'... now, cloning, that's another issue, entirely...

Those two chicks are trying to hard to look like a couple. Your right creepy.
So weird about the bathroom, and it never works when you marry your clone, I think they just separated.
Lots of yummy love,

OMG! I thought of The Shining the second I saw the picture! That was the first movie that I saw without my parents on my own with a friend. I was so scared! It terrifies me to this day. And so does that bathroom.
HOLY CRAP!
Isn't it weird the random crap we remember? Well some of us...
That Psycho bathroom is fan-friggin'-tastic! I want one! {I'm a horror fanatic.)
My sister came to stay with me one time and when she was putting a pic up I was all, "Uhh, why do you have a pic of yourself? You're so weird!" And she was like, "Um, that's my husband." I looked close and sho nuff it was her hubs! They look that much alike. Well in a small pic across the room anyway...
I think married people are like dog owners. After a while you start to look alike.
Either that or we all have an egotistical side that loves ourselves and our therefore drawn to lovers that look like us.
