If that’s the stairway to heaven, can I request to be shown the stairs leading down?
I’m not sure of exactly how to access them. Check with the pedophile section at the prison. They can show you the way.
When my siblings and I were kids, we would ride laundry baskets down the stairs.
These stairs would be fucking rad to do that with.
Riding the laundry basket off the roof would be more comparable
Once, anyway.
House of Leaves vibes
Wtf, why didn’t you tell me you were coming over?
(Thankfully not nearly as steep)
Where I come from we call these, “up only” stairs. Kind of like how Perl is a write-only language.
I guarantee I can get down them. Very quickly.
At this point, just use a ladder. It’d be safer too.
At what point does a set of stairs become a wall? How thin can steps be before they are no longer considered steps?
I would assume when you can no longer stand on them.
I love this comic. Typical JoJo scenario
I know it’s stupid, but it’s posts like this that make me really wish that the fediverse had gold badges to award
The steps don’t have to be thin, you could make them jut out. But still, at some point it’s effectively a ladder. That’s probably the point where it’s easier to start using your hands too.
I don’t know but I think it’s fair to say if it becomes necessary to ask those questions then you went too far.
Missed opportunity to say “you went a step too far” ;)
Oof I sure did
Looks like an advanced Doom II map.
Just missing a teleport at the top to simulate a second floor, or a silent téléporter if you’re really fancy.
I don’t think Doom teleported the player to simulate a second floor. I think it was closer to asset swapping what got drawn on screen in the same location.
If you turn the Minimap on you can see where you are in the level. The Minimap was almost a depiction of how the game was really programmed, and the 3D POV was a programming trick to display it for the customer.
Extreme inner city house attic stairs vibes. Anything goes with attic stairs!
You’ll be thankful for anything more sloped than a ladder 😂
It’s illegal tho
Depends.
Houses that were built before specific regulations came into force are almost always grandfathered into the old ones.
I myself live in a house built in 1900 which has steep stairs that would be illegal today, but it predates the regs and gets a pass.
Clearly this depends on Jurisdiction, but for example grandfathered in electrical outlets are fine but kitchens and bathrooms almost always need more expensive ground faulted receptacles according to the National Electric Code. When human health and safety is a clear immediate risk such as this then it usually has to be torn out.
In California they have CEBC based on the IEBC, which requires old buildings to meet their own separate building codes.
I’ve been looking for attic stair options. Anything that easier to carry/slide boxes down than a ladder.
“Time for bed! Who’s gonna belay me?”
Lol if you can afford to buy a house with an upstairs, you can afford an autobelay
I’ll sleep at base camp tonight and try for the summit in the morning.
Just give me a sec to put on my jump kit.
Dutch stairs. Yes, they’re like that.
Yep can confirm this is standard issue in slightly older Dutch houses.
My old house had some steep stairs that felt like this.
My wife broke her ankle on them, fun story… Nope. That sucked.
Steep stairs are one thing, but putting carpet on them is just asking to slip.
Yeah, shoulda done Teflon.
And install some sprinklers.
