What is wrong with wanting to live in an underground Nuclear weapon proof bunker off grid?

Now an earth berm house with windows on one side, and the back wall dug into the slope for less temperature swings is okay, but they wind up looking like an old single wide trailer. Not cool that.

The atlas missile that used to be in the silo was removed back in the sixties. No missile, just a nuke, zombie, tornado, asteroid impact proof underground residential emplacement.

Actually, there are ways to "pipe" in sunlight to an underground home.

By using blast proof glass, and shielding the pipe, you can bring natural light into the structure. I have also planned to establish hd cameras around the area and having them go to a security center, as well as HD Monitors set up on walls to mimic windows. I have also seen silos that have a simple conventional home built over the entrance to the complex, effectively masking the existence of the structure underground. I am presently considering a combination of both plans.

Status: offline 		For me though that wouldn't work. I need real sunlight, real windows. Just piping in natural sunlight doesn't work for me nor does mimicking. When I first moved to Baltimore it was the first thing that was important to me...a home with lots of light, lots of windows...the bigger the better. Unfortunately though, right before I moved in, the landlord had sealed over the skylight because it was leaking and instead of fixing it he covered it over with ceiling. By that point I had already put all my effort into this apartment. The next place I decide to rent though will have floor to ceiling windows or at least many, many and large windows.

It's not a matter of right or wrong, it's a matter of preference. In general, humans will burrow and live below out of fear and necessity, not choice. You may have a hard time finding someone with tastes similar to yours, someone who finds the idea appealing.

I'd be willing to consider it just for the tornado thing.
Or at the very least turn it into a deluxe storm shelter.
Did you tell her the positive aspects of having a home
like that? It might not be for everyone but I think there
are women out there who'd be ok with it.

yes but they look like lamps, the psicological effect is not the same as having a window, they are used to have more light in a spot not reached by windows, having only this kind of spotligths it's not the best in confort.

Sorry. Too busy laughing to give the question any serious consideration. It's okay. I'm also a weirdo.

Status: offline 		I can't stop. You might as well have asked, what's wrong with lighting your own farts on fire to see of they really blow? The answer: nothing. Absolutely nothing. BTW, I've done that too.

You go, man. No, really.

I'm not laughing at you...

I love you, man. Really. There's nothing worse than being normal.

Absolutely nothing, in my book. I've always wanted to have my very own escape missile. Yes, I know they removed the original denizen, but that just means I can shop around for a better one! I can see this in my mind's eye, all of my enemies lined up outside waiting to bust in when the blast doors peel back and they're immolated in the jetblast coming off the main engines as I soar to freedom. I'd need to build a capsule that holds all my cool and necessary stuff, but that's trivial if I have the $$ to buy a missile silo.
