Wow really, you responded to a comment that explained why it doesn't make any sense to respond to my comments...
The worst part is you will almost certainly respond to this one also.
/sigh
well thanks for the free bumps anyway

You fail to understand that you are not on my ignore list. Now if you want to shut up regarding how you derailed your own thread, and get back on topic, that's your choice. You will note that my first post was on topic, even if it didn't pussy foot around your idea.
If you wish to discuss the merits of spherical housing, as you should, get on it. Furthermore, fuckface, you solicited an opinion about spherical housing, and I gave you one.

I've told you so many times that you are blocked firstassent. i dont understand how you can be so slow. what ever you wrote im not reading it. i dont value your input. you are rude and intellectually dishonest. go poison someone else's thread.
First of all, I'm speaking to others besides yourself.
Secondly, my attitude towards you is partially due to your:
1. Attitude, as evident by your bragging that you have me blocked.
2. Your stupidity, as evident by your post.
3. Your deliberate misspelling of my user name.
But most importantly, I have an opinion about spherical residences, some knowledge and appreciation of architecture, and I'll damn well express my opinion here, regardless of whether you're an ignoramus or not.
You have just made things worse for yourself, not better.
Some advice: if I'm on your ignore list, then ignore me.

I'd take some combination of box shapes over a sphere any and every day, not just for practical reasons, but for aesthetic reasons as well. To put it bluntly, boxes can be made strong enough to forsake the ugliness and impracticality of living inside a ball.

why a ball, why not a more elliptical, longer shape
sphere is the strongest shape for a structure. its the same principal as the arch. this is necessary to compensate for the malleability of polypropylene. if the malleability if polypropylene can be compensated for than that same malleability is what makes the structure virtually indestructible because it can absorb shocks.

i'd try it out 
you dont by any chance happen to have contact information for any venture capitalists?
That's the only way anyone will be trying this idea out any time soon.perhaps one, but I'm not quite sure I can convince him (or even myself
) of a future profit potential. keep working on the business model then get back to me you really dont think there is a market for a house that can cheaply and fluidly transition between different political jurisdictions while simultaneously being virtually indestructible and a boat just for good measure? you are a hard man to please!
it wouldn't be a good boat :/ it also rivals the cost of a great house boat :/
it is presumably indestructible, so there's that
I guess if pirates had their choice they'd loot the house boat first
Hm, you're right, I guess I could see potential if you marketed it as a shelter against another flood of god's wrath. nuclear hideouts made some bank during the cold war
no it wouldn't be a good boat this is true but it would make a better building block for a seastead community than a houseboat.

ew could you imagine choking on burning plastic fumes before succumbing to death
The Monsanto House of the Future
100% synthetic materials. Built by Monsanto at Disneyland in 1957, it was open for tours for a decade. It held up fine, but was demolished in the late 1960s (the wrecking ball bounced off and they had to use saws) to make room for another attraction.
Rubbermaid's largest plastic shed.
Rubbermaid has a whole line of plastic sheds. They keep coming out with larger models. They could easily make a house if there was a market.
Fire resistance is a problem.

Sorry, anon136, I was teasing. But I like the principle of unusual eco-friendly houses.

A couple have been built already!
