To paint or not to paint

As if brick front with siding sides was not bad enough, the painted brick front with natural brick sides is even worse.

"Nobody will notice, it is on the side"

"I like the contrast, said a passerby - never"

"It reminds me of a mime"

"I think it's important to fit in with the aesthetic of the neighborhood and architecture of the house."

"I'm with you. That's exactly my style"

"And I want it to look original to the house"

"Of course, I promise, you won't see any seams."

"Mom, I am not cleaning my room until you clean these gutters"

"I'll take a double-shot of gutter"

(Gutter Guy) "What do you think of the gutters?"

(Homeowner) "What do I think? I think it is &*%#$#'n great, those will be super easy to clean!"
