    There was a house near where I grew up that was 3/4 under ground. Only the front facing wall was exposed. They claimed almost zero ac/heat costs unless it was just extreme heat/cold. It was hilarious to see them mow the top of the house

    There's one just like that near where I grew up and now that I'm older I want to ask them about heating/cooling, because it's got to be so much cheaper than a regular house.

    I doubt they would get away with "almost zero" though since it's basically buried with a small hill rather than dug down or cut into stonea cliff.

    I imagine maintaining it can be a bitch though.

        That’s a lot of wasted green if they don’t play golf.

          If a wizard comes knocking on your door, don't answer it.

              Unless you're looking to get your steps in.

                Pareidolia is playing tricks on me; I'm either seeing a huge nose sniffing up that house, or that rock has a face.

                    The heat/cold retention on that must be fantastic.

                    I stayed in a fairy chimney in Cappadocia for a week in summer and it was great, no AC needed.

                                There was a similar domicile in my area back in the 80s that collapsed due to heavy rains. The occupant was sleeping on the sofa and died.

                                  the caption is alluding to the phrase "living under a rock" which figuratively means "isn't up to date with what's going on"...

                                  so the caption says they didn't hear about whatever the person is talking about because they're literally living under a rock.
