A wilting fan
We just want to come out and say it: we have no idea what might have caused a wooden ceiling fan’s blades to wilt in the manner they did. The melted hypothesis is an option, but we were unaware wood could also melt.
In any case, there’s one thing we’re quite sure about. Simply said, we wouldn’t want to live in a house that encourages them to do either of those things. We’ll give you the realtor’s phone number if you keep buying it for yourself. You might be able to get it for a song.
