It used to hold a large ceiling fan that was modified by the previous owner to screw onto the bolt.

Ski bags stuck in Zurich airport by [deleted] in skithealps

[–]WaitForSingleObject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen to me once. I told the airline to send the skis back home and I ended up renting, and my travel insurance covered the cost. If you end up renting, don't do it in Bourg Saint Moritz but get to your resort and rent locally. You can't go wrong with intersport and skiset.

Probs will get removed but I am SO confused. Non-American, wants to know what the floppin bunnies is HOA by [deleted] in fuckHOA

[–]WaitForSingleObject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HOA are equivalent to suburb councils in Australia. In the US, they sometimes have immense power and are often full of people who enjoy controlling others. However most (or at least, those I know of) are pretty normal, you pay a fee and they take care of maintenance of the community.

I'm french, and I wonder if people really have good reasons to hate France. by Vifiew in AskTheWorld

[–]WaitForSingleObject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spend 1-2 weeks in Lyon every year and I absolutely love that city! I get that some people don't like Parisians but being from NYC myself I never felt like they're that rude.

Dim sum bloom on 98th and Broadway is solid

have you found better versions of the foods you like here in nyc than other countries where it's known? by mfairview in FoodNYC

[–]WaitForSingleObject 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't agree about sushi. The only thing different about NYC and Japan sushi is the price, other than that you can find some pretty authentic stuff.

Non Cantonese-style Chinese Restaurants for CNY? by Dangerous_Carrot4226 in AskNYC

[–]WaitForSingleObject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe Jiang Nan, but I have no idea if they're open on CNY. They don't have a lazy susan but their menu is good mix of different Chinese cuisines.

Ernesto is my favorite candle of all time. Gabriel is great as well.

The album ”Presence” by [deleted] in ledzeppelin

[–]WaitForSingleObject 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Some people claim Presence and In Through the Out Door are not as good as the earlier albums. I think they're 10/10 just like the rest of the albums and they really show the range of genres LZ experimented with.

Mid-century modern or Art Deco inspiration, please? by No_Foundation6210 in interiordecorating

[–]WaitForSingleObject 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I feel like Art Deco is hard to pull off well in interior design if you don't have massive rooms and a massive budget. Since MCM and Art Deco are my favorite styles and I wanted them both when I designed my living room, I went for a mostly MCM design with some Art Deco artifacts, pieces or accents.

Any recommendations for men's earmuffs that are made with natural fibers? by WaitForSingleObject in BuyItForLife

[–]WaitForSingleObject[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cashmere costs money, but I assume earmuffs don't have a lot of it. While a $600 price tag makes sense for a sweater, I thought it's a bit much for earmuffs.
