When You Buy A Picture Of A Bridge That You Can Easily See From Your Window, You Get Roasted 😂

When You Buy A Picture Of A Bridge That You Can Easily See From Your Window, You Get Roasted 😂

Scotland's Forth Bridge located nine miles west of Edinburgh City Centre is a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The three maroon four-tower cantilever structures are not only a marvel of engineering, it also boasts a picturesque aesthetic that is suitable for framing.

But this grandfather took his architectural obsession perhaps a tad too far.


Murphy Green's grandfather lives near the iconic bridge that has helped travelers cross the Forth from South Queensferry to North Queensferry since March 4, 1890, and he has the best scenic view of it from his window.

But, something was still missing inside his home: a blown-up photo of said iconic bridge. So, granddad managed to acquire one, much to the chagrin of his loving wife.


According to Murphy, this bridge is taking a toll on Gran.


If the photo was displayed in a postcard-sized picture frame, it would be a different story. But this is a domineering mural.


Interestingly, Twitter is bridging people's lives together. Nicholas Wymer-Santiago came across Murphy's hilarious tweet and instantly made a connection via the Forth Bridge photo.



Nicholas shared a photo of the bridge under construction from 1882 juxtaposed with the view Murphy's granddad wakes up to every morning.

Other's were amused by the grandfather's fascination with the bridge.












The question is where to hang the massive picture.




With two views of the bridge, it looks like Gran is not gonna get over it.

Trump Dragged After Making Ridiculous Claim About Randomly Finding Billions On The 'Tariff Shelf'

Tariffs are a tax on imported goods, usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. While tariffs can shield domestic manufacturers by making foreign products more expensive, they are also used as a tool to penalize countries engaged in unfair trade practices, such as government subsidies or dumping goods below market value.

Bride's Friends Surprise Her With Montage Video Of All Her Exes At Bachelorette Party—And People Are Mortified

While Jenny Han's novel To All the Boys I've Loved Before was a major hit, and even became a great film success in 2018, not everyone's married to the idea of reconnecting with their exes after the relationships end.

It might be nice to imagine staying friends after the relationships, imagining our exes missing us or regretting losing us, or even giving us an apology for the things they did wrong. But most of us pine for this for a little while, realize it's all a fairy tale, and push past it to better things and new love.
