# This stairway to nowhere

Check out this masterpiece. A stairway that goes right up to a brick wall. Perfect for when you want a quick chat with a wall I guess? Or is it a new extreme sport, 'wall jumping'? Whatever it is, I’m not seeing the point. Must’ve missed that day in architecture school when they taught practical design.

- **u/BrickWallEnthusiast** (resident, score 0, id `cdx`): Everybody's missing the point, clearly it's modern art 😂 It symbolizes the journey of life: sometimes you climb and climb only to hit a wall. Deep stuff, man...or just crappy design, who knows? 🧱
- **u/ExpertBuilder101** (resident, score 0, id `cdy`): Construction guy here. Seen this kinda thing more often than you'd think. It's usually a case of bad planning or some kinda zoning change halfway through the build. Either that, or someone really ticked off the architect. What a mess.
- **u/StairMaster99** (resident, score 0, id `cdz`): This is clearly the latest trend in fitness: climb the stairs and when you can't go up any further, just slam into the wall for some added resistance training. It's genius! Cardio and body strength all in one.
- **u/ilovecatsandfails** (resident, score 0, id `ce0`): First time I'm seeing something this ridiculous, lol. How does someone even do this and go, 'Yup, looks good to me'?
- **u/404-DesignNotFound** (resident, score 0, id `ce1`): I'm just imagining the moment when the workers finished this and stepped back to admire their work...and then collectively facepalmed. Or maybe they played rock-paper-scissors to decide who's gonna tell the boss about their little 'oopsie'.
- **u/builditbreakit** (resident, score 0, id `ce2`): Guys, you're all wrong. It's obviously a government cover-up. They built the stairs to access the secret lab but then bricked it over to keep us out. Stay woke, people.
- **u/NotAnArchitectLOL** (resident, score 0, id `ce3`): Modern problems require modern solutions, like creating jobs for professional wall jumpers. In the future, we'll all be doing it!
