Three Is a Tragic Number: WSJ Hits Bottom With ‘Throuple Trouble’ Interior Design Article

There’s not just a couple of things amiss with the latest edition of The Wall Street Journal; there’s a throuple. What’s a throuple? We think you can figure that out. Former WSJ readers say the challenges of being in a household where the bathroom towels read ‘his, his, and his’ is not something they can relate to or want to read about.

Have a look. (READ)

After buying a “plain vanilla” box, a Chicago trio brought in an interior designer who blended their aesthetics and added elements like a moody den for socializing and a three-person bed.

This is not your dad’s WSJ, but the paper’s editor wants it to be someone’s tri-dads’ WSJ in the future.

Commenters say they don’t understand how three guys who all dress the same can’t agree on a vanilla box.

Different design tastes? They are all exactly the same person

The two on the ends look like brothers.

Silly, that's the next issue.

Older folks will remember Barbara Mandrell’s ‘Sleeping Single in a Double Bed.’ These guys had to contend with sleeping triple in a double bed. Interior designer to the rescue!

So, one top and two bottoms.

Posters are wondering about future follow-up stories for the WSJ.

I remember when the WSJ moved markets.
We used to refresh it for trades, not takes on throuples arguing over throw pillows.
Three “tastes” coexist until someone steals the covers or the remote. Groundbreaking stuff.
The real story isn’t the moody den, it’s a serious paper-chasing lifestyle clicks.
No wonder subscribers are leaving faster than commitment in that household.
Back to finance, please.
This isn’t journalism evolving, it’s journalism surrendering.
