In the spirit of the program "Wife Swap", it is always couples of complete opposite tastes and cultures that are "swopped".

Its hilarious to watch, and painful to hear sometimes!uh oh doh But its interesting, when you watch complete strangers and personality opposites (initially) having to live with each other and living by the others' rules..

My sister is deeply religious, doesnt drink, doesnt smoke, wears no make up, home schools her children, only mixes with other Christian families, has no TV, strongly objects to anything that is of any fun at all if it doesnt involve her belief, and lives in Humid Florida with her Fanatic Husband..laugh

She's happy, which is good - but living in this environment would be my personal idea of Hell. I'd last about 10 minutes, before I would want to do Terrible Things to Him...

very mad

Whats your idea of A Home of Hell, if you and yours were thrown into this scenario?

I agree. I couldnt live with someone who is happy to live in two foot of dirt and mess..

Your sisters house would be my living hell but I think after a week being there the whole family would be hard core atheists by the time I left. Jehova's Witnesses wont even come to my door anymore for fear of being de-programmed. They've marked my house off limits because they have lost so many of their missionaries.rolling on the floor laughing

There was one on a week or so ago here, where a very well off, Well to Do family from some mansion in Arizona swopped with an out of work family in Indiana who lived in a trailer, in one of the most deprived areas of the country.

The woman from Arizona was into these Self-Help Books, and espoused little every day Mantras, like staring into the mirror saying.." I am the Best I can Be, Every Day in Every Way. I can Achieve Anything"..

uh oh

I will never forget the scene where she decided to go kick some "lazy" butt down at the local Drop-In Center for Out of Work People. She tried to sell this book she had written - for $35, to people who had just enough money to buy food, trying to motivate them and saying there were jobs out there for all if they looked hard enough..

OMG, it was hilarious. I really thought Murder was going to be committed on camera!rolling on the floor laughing doh

I ask them for money to join their organisation and they look rather confused, they soon turn their backs and walk quickly down the pathway. Or a neighbour will shout out from time to time the converters are on the prowl!rolling on the floor laughing

I know where you are coming from. I am living it right now, Alot of people say just leave but they don't know the stupidity that I will have to put up with. I know because I broke up with her and had problems. Than a year later I made the mistake of going back out with her again. same problems as before Im just a year older.

The persistency of those people is well known, they only understand this """ Please go now""" said very firmly to them.

A home of hell for me involves someone who is germaphobic. I don't mind being orderly (if I have to lol), but I hate when someone is so up in a tither about 'cleanliness' that you can't have your feet on the sofa, or you can't sit on the bed if you haven't taken your clothes off/put your pajamas on.

I'm gonna need a place that doesn't have blast doors that shut and lock permanently between 9PM and 6AM, because I come and go as I please. I'll do you the favor of not being loud and obnoxious as I do, but hey man, "this bird you cannot cage".

At the same time, I wouldn't want to deal with someone who parties non-stop, is drunk more than sober, or constantly yammers and stirs up worthless drama just for the sake of having something to talk about/do.
