I don't have anything that good, but in the house I grew up in, my father loved to put an L-shaped metal ruler in the corner of our downstairs bathroom. You couldn't hold it flat - the corner was off somewhere between 5-10 degrees.

The other day I visited a client with offices in a late 17th century house. There's not a straight angle in that house, anywhere. Their Christmas parties must be a lot of fun. 8)
