So, the "House Hunters" franchise is clearly a successful one; it just keeps growing. From "House Hunters International" to "House Hunters International Renovation" (see the difference there), the various versions of the show probably make up 95 percent of the HGTV schedule. The newest addition to the "House Hunters" family is "Tiny House Hunters" where literally crazy people choose to live in 600 square foot houses on acres of land because they want to be sustainable or live debt-free or have room to grow their garden to feed their veganism. Even the realtors are confused by what is happening and a quote on the show from one of them is literally "what am I doing here?" I also ask myself the same question when I sit on the couch and watch this television show that makes me irrationally angry.
1. Every time someone looking to buy a tiny house walks into one and remarks, "Wow, this is really small."
Or: "I know I am looking for a tiny house but this one is just really tiny." Well, yeah. That is literally the entire point of the show. I hate to break it to you, but for some reason you are literally electing to live in a tiny house. Tiny. T-I-N-Y.
2. Yurts.
Basically just everything about yurts irk me, especially the word itself. One woman on the show elected to buy her own building materials and build a yurt herself by bribing her friends to help her. It wasn't even a cost-saving thing. She just really felt compelled to build her own yurt. Like, yes hello nice to meet you, a fun fact about me is that I built my own yurt to live in. Also, a bunch of yurts together look like different sized ant hills and I can't help but imagine ants inhabiting them. Just say no to yurts.
3. The innocent people and/or animals affected by their parents'/significant other's/pet owner's strange need to live in a tiny house.
(Said no one ever about a tiny house.)
I've only seen three episodes of this show because it really grinds my gears, but so far, I have seen an innocent dog get dragged into his owner's crazy and a woman whose boyfriend sold their apartment so they could share a tiny house together. I guess props to you if your relationship can survive literally living on top of one another. But the thing that keeps me up at night is the mother and father who decided to uproot their family from Los Angeles and move to a tiny house in upstate New York. A family of six in a six hundred foot square house all sharing a "loft bedroom" (read: glorified bunk bed) and one bathroom. And one of those six is a 14-year-old girl. Love yourself people, please.
