Were they HIGH?!

I live in base housing. It is a beautiful home, with all the american amenities anyone living in germany could ask for. 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, roomy, balcony, nice view...
They did do one thing that is so galactically stupid it completely baffles me. It is also something that irks me to no end at least twice a day.
This type of home we have is available ONLY to families- that is- people with children. And yet.... and yet... they found it necessary to fill the kitchen and bathroom with WHITE FRICKON TILES. Not beige- white. Oh, and they are a lovely textured white, so a mess isn't cleaned with a quick swipe of the sponge- but has to be scrubbed up.
These designers were out of their minds, and must therefore end up on my "You're a prick" list. I can wash that kitchen floor and 2 days later it looks like a sprinkled the floor with coffee and let it dry. The bathroom is far worse with the tidal wave that is bath-time for 2 young kids nightly. The water splashes- we unsuspectingly walk in there and the floor is insta-screwed. The bad days are when people come over with shoes on.
Yep- white tiles suck, and whoever you are that put them in here? ::finger::
