25. Toilet Rugs - What's a toilet rug? Is that a rug in the toilet, a rug on the seat of the toilet, or a rug in front of the toilet? Or maybe a rug made out of a toilet.
24. Too Many Photos - We have 3 displayed photos in the house. I don't think that is too much. Those three are the first I have ever displayed.
23. Ignoring the Foyer - I've never had a foyer.
22. Undressed Cables - I don't have a sewing machine and I refuse to pay retail for cable clothes.
21. Out-of-Place Themes - I once put my sunporch theme in the kitchen. Boy I felt foolish.
20. Outdated Accessories - I'm not even sure what "accessory" would mean in terms of decorating. But I will now take down the 1973 calendar.
19. Lopsided Furniture Arrangements - My couch is 4 inches taller on the right side. But that is because I sit on the left.
18. Keeping Something You Hate - But I derive my life energy from hate!
17. Too Formal - The day my coffee table doesn't have to call me sir is the day communists and al qaeda have won.
16. Uncomfortable Dining Chairs - Who eats at the dining table? I don't give a damn whether the stacks of DVDs on the dining chairs are comfortable.
15. Lack of Traffic Pattern - I agree with this one. Walking from living room to the bedroom in an alternating diagonal pattern takes a while but it really makes the place seem bigger.
14. Everything Matches - Also, a fire danger.
13. Following Fads - But is this better or worse than leading them?
12. Furniture That Doesn't Fit - It's just a phase all teenagers go through. It'll find its niche eventually.
11. Too Many Colors of Patterns - So lots of patterns are fine if in grayscale?
10. Floating Rugs - I had always heard that "you're less dense than water!" is the vilest thing you can say to a rug in Persian (Babelfish doesn't do Persian so here it is in Chinese: 再较不密集比水!) but it is good to hear it is true.
9. Improper Lighting - We once had a recessed dome light feel up my grandmother. So I drowned it under the rug.
8. Frames Hung Too High - If you hang them too low then they may hit the ground and not die. That would be embarrassing. Also, I like my photos hung high (seriously, I'm guilty fo this one and have received comments, but I really do prefer it and I'm the one who lives here).
7. Tacky Couch Covers - Slippery ones are ok? Frankly, even if there is no cover a tacky couch would be bad. This includes vinyl in hot climes.
6. Pushed-Back Furniture - Honestly, I have no idea what this even means.
5. Ignoring Windows - If I don't ignore the windows the foyer it going to get snippy.
4. Fear of Color - Ahhhh!
3. Knickknack Overload - This is true, the world lacks sufficient k's.
2. Too Many Pillows - There is no such thing as too many pillows. And by pillows I mean boobs.
1. Fake Flowers - Alliterative accessories are awful.
