    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.

      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!””

        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
