Trump’s Idiot Lawyers Just Shared Faulty Evidence in Fraud Trial
Apparently, it can keep getting worse.
You're viewing a single thread.
Trump’s lawyers also showed a slide claiming the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas is 64 stories. But an architectural drawing shows it likely has fewer levels because the floor numbers jump from eight to 16.
We can do that? Okay. My house is actually five stories. I've labeled the ground floor 1 and the upper story 5.
For tax purposes, though, the ground floor is -1 and the upper floor is 0 so it's a zero story house.
If you look closely, floor 13 is actually skipped in a LOT of buildings. It's unlucky
Maybe that's why Trump removed so many, still hasn't found the one that causes all of his problems
The cause is number 1. Himself
That's why he had the elevator people replace it with G for Genius.
It's trump, so "J" for genius.
Skipping floor 13 is one thing, skipping 9,10,11,12,13,14, and 15 is quite another. And has anyone checked the mid-30s are really there? They could be placebo buttons.
Also in East Asian cultures, the number 4 is unlucky either because its pronounced the same or similar to “death”. So, they often don’t have floors with the digit 4.

I lived in a condo building in a high Chinese population city in British Columbia, Canada and there was no 4th, 13th or 14th floor.
I have tetraphobia. That's why I only buy milk and juice sold in bottles.
You got me with that one! Magnificently done.
People with tetraphobia must have to avoid the aquarium section at pet stores
Bags for life.
Found the canadian.
There's literally dozens of us.
“My hotel doesn't have a 13th Floor because of superstition, but c'mon man... People on the 14th floor, you know what floor you're really on" "What room are you in?" "1401". "No, you're not. Jump out of window, you'll die earlier!"”

I work on the 13 floor, can confirm I have a lot of bad luck. I had bad luck before I got moved there but I still do
This doesn't make it ok. Children are adept at pointing out the stupidity of adult discrimination, reminding them that people are dumb enough to discriminate against a fucking number is a good way to hopefully help them hold onto their memories of how idiotic some of our learned choices are.
So then...what about 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15?
You are right though, I think nearly every tall building I've been in doesn't list a floor 13.
I thought those floors were there, but usually service floors?
Anecdotally, having to have to take the stairs down during fire drills, the number of steps between floors 15 -> 14 is the same number of steps from 14 -> 12.
I think it's simply that 13 is considered unlucky, so people won't rent/buy those properties, and it's cheaper to renumber the floors than to risk the floor being unoccupied or below market value.
Interesting. Now I want to investigate more.
It's not unlucky, morons think it is and do dumb shit like that
Don't you mean unfortunate?

When I bought my house it was listed at 5 bedrooms. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs. I think the Master Bedroom (first floor) is actually supposed to be the living room, and the living room was a dining room.
The fifth bedroom is a room in the back of the house just off the driveway. It's uninsulated, the window is single pane, and none of the outlets are grounded. It's unheated. They had a scrap of carpet out there, but it was just covering the cement floor. I installed an insulated exterior door and threw away the solid wood one. I keep the lawn mower and snowblower out there.
“I just bought a 2-bedroom house, but I think I get to decide how many bedrooms there are, don't you?
"Fuck you, real estate lady! This bedroom has an oven in it! This bedroom's got a lot of people sitting around watching TV. This bedroom's over in that guy's house! Sir, you have one of my bedrooms, are you aware? Don't decorate it!"”
That's two Mitch Hedberg jokes in one thread. Chefs kiss
Similarly, my house was listed as two and a half bath. The second “full” bath is a random shower, toilet, and sink in the basement just… there. Open to the rest of the basement. No enclosing walls. lol
Couldn't we just count the stories from the outside?
