True or false: It’s better to be psycho for houses or psycho for love?

This May the entire Lifestyles Channel is doing a month long theme event called “Three Doors Down.” The idea; sort of a meet & greet (and introduction) deal among blogs in our b5media channel.
I’ll be introducing you to one new blog a week here at Offbeat. Each of the blogs is one of my neighboring blogs - from three blogs down of course. Fittingly, I decided to give each of my neighbor blogs a house that’s appropriate for their blog.
This week, I’m kicking off the event with Psycho for Love. Not a blog I read normally, because frankly, to answer the question posed in my post title, I think it’s better to be psycho for houses, or any structure really, than love. Why? Well…
- So not into stalker people - however stalking homes is a fun pastime activity.
- We could flip the question as well. Even psycho homes themselves are better than psycho people. A psycho house will do no harm; a psycho person just might, in fact, they probably will. Even if you’re dealing in truly psycho homes; think Amityville, really what’s the house gonna do that I can’t solve with a match and some lighting fluid? I can take a house.
- Me being overly amused with all things structural gives me a nice topic to discuss at parties and other events. The psycho for love individual cannot bring up their issues at a get-together, not if they don’t want to raise a few eyebrows.
- Seriously, when have you ever seen a psycho home lover arrested for some MySpace crime? Oh, what’s that, you haven’t. That’s right, I’m practically 99.8% less likely to end up in jail than a psycho for love person.
Best answer: True; it’s so much better to be psycho for houses.
Disagree? Then you might like Psycho for Love , a blog blogged by Trench, a blogger I like actually (i.e. not psycho). Topics covered include things like:
I know; wrap your brain around this blog, right.
In any case I have a nice house in mind for Trench. I can’t remember if I’ve shown this house at Offbeat before or not, but I’ve been psycho for it, for a good long while. It’s one of the weirdest I’ve seen, plus a wee bit incognito, thus fitting.

Weigh in with a comment: psycho for houses or psycho for love? Go ahead and choose.
Why not both? There’s more than enough crazy to go around.
Hil, you hardly seem the psycho for love type. I’m gonna guess there’s not that much crazy going around, at least not around you. Maybe though, I’ll do a link love post for you here, I actually have an offbeat space that would be perfect for eco friendly driver.
Love the way you worked that into your theme. You are SO creative.
Thanks Gayla, of course, you didn’t give an answer. Love or house? With you I’m gonna guess love, but not of the very psycho variety
