Yeah, that’s not phallic.

Pass on living in a building that looks like a vibrator.

Do they break down and cost an arm and a leg to fix?

I think I'll buy one of those billion dollar apartments in Dubai. I wonder if the apartment comes with a parking garage space for my $25 million dollar Rolls Royce Boat Tail car...

And in other news, Bill Gates will move in with his new $25 million dollar car...and still can't get a date.

Just one week apart...

What will be next? Exits F1? Builds permanent Mexican invader housing at US Airports?

It looks like the tip of a hypodermic needle. Perfect for trust fund junkies.

[Shady]

It is hideous.

Who wants an unobstructed view of a building bigger than yours?

I hope the apartments have a “losers” discount.

It’s home to 150 apartments, starting at $2.7 million,

Realistically, those prices aren't out of line with similar apartments in Manhattan, Hong Kong, or Cleveland.

(Well, OK, maybe not Hong Kong...)

Bill Gates doesnt want a date. He just pays for it because after its over they go away.

A few years ago I saw...up close...a Bugatti Veyron Vitess in the valet parking area of the Mall of Dubai. It had Saudi plates (rich Saudis go to Dubai to “unwind”) and it’s the only time I’ve ever seen a $2 million car.

That’s not true. There were a series of stories about how he tried to get dates but was unable to do so. He actually wanted a girlfriend but even being a billionaire can’t solve that problem for him.

Dubai is a failed nation.

Hopefully they will provide access to sewers for the toilets (some buildings in Dubai have to truck their sewage out to a waste disposal station).

[No name given]

Probably.

Not to mention it looks like it could collapse at any moment.

Is it plane proof?.

American petro dollars and blood built and maintains these sand culture people. America can have cities as shiny and clean with the oil and gas we have and a strict maintenance of our border and culture but America is in cultural rot mode.
