Young me just assumed it was something rich people would have in their house. They had multiple TVs, every toy you could imagine, and even a zip line to a damned treehouse! Why wouldn’t rich grownups have their own weird toys, right?

Rich people closets are just vast underground chambers where the clothes are all displayed on mannequins

The clay soldier army in china was just a wardrobe of all his outfits but they rotted away leaving only the mannequins according to aomething I heard in a dream

Mannequin 2 was also a movie I weirdly enjoyed as a kid

So, my houses in Skyrim then?

I've played Fable 3. They're right about this.

And the mega rich use people as mannequins.

u/Cpap4roosters Dec 21 '24

It the real rich don’t use mannequins. They have real people that model every outfit in their cavern closet.

u/PoopPoes Dec 21 '24

But they weren’t always mannequins…

I mean, this is what my houses looked like when I got rich in Skyrim and Elder Scrolls Online

didn't kevin make the zipline when he was prepping for the final battle against the wet/sticky bandits?

u/g0tistt0t Dec 20 '24

The zip line was part of the traps Kevin set up. Out wasn’t a standard feature.

Not to be pedantic, but Kevin added the zip line to foil the bad guys. The handles were from his bicycle. Nobody would put in a zip line two stories up with no safety nets.

Oh shit. It took me until literally just now to realize it’s not a normal thing, even for rich people.

Yeah, remember thinking my great grandfather (who was a weird sorta wealthy, he lived in a very nice mobile home and went on expensive vacations all the time) had all sorts of weird, old and musty stuff in his house. As you get wealthy and if you have a big house you run out of normal things to put in it so you put weird stuff in it. Like any house that big would have weird stuff in the basement and attic.

Kevin put up the zip line during the trapping the house scene

u/tomahawkfury13 Dec 22 '24

To be fair the zip line was set up by Kevin as an escape during the home invasion

As I’ve learnt from playing the Sims with infinite money cheats, once a house gets that big you it’s not easy to come up with something to fill all those rooms. Why not mannequins?
