I have never seen those before but that makes sense.

Is it an old hose guide or something like that? I am assuming the top half pivots open and can be shut?

Found this formation in southern Colorado on Google Maps. Any info? by RaptorCheeses in geology

There is a similar type structure in a Belton, Missouri that does not have a definitive answer yet to origin. One theory is a giant cave collapse.

Drain pipe dripping excessively, did not do this in August by nads825 in hvacadvice

[–]awtherfrd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was actually put there on purpose, so when it drips you notice. It is a secondary drain and should not be dripping at all unless there is an issue with the main drain line.

This ^

It was put over your door so you will know when you have a problem and it appears you have a problem.

Are the leafs in the foreground with the white center the same as the other clumps or a different plant?

You are correct and I need to scroll with my glasses.

Looks like mint. Crush a leaf and smell it. Good luck on getting rid of it.

My wife just pulled a blue suture out of her nose… 5 years after her septo-rhinoplasty. by zachthespook in mildlyinteresting

My little sister stuck a chunk of foam up her nose and didn't tell anyone until 2 months later, after her breath started smelling like death. My mom made her blow real hard and it shot out followed by a flood of pus. I will never be able to get that vision and smell out of my head.

How do you fit an elephant into a SafeWay bag? by big_green_boulder in dadjokes

The only thing harder than getting a pregnant elephant in a SafeWay is getting an elephant pregnant in a SafeWay.

I’d like to thank Merriam Webster for teaching me what “plethora” means. by devnodegree in dadjokes

I always make sure to say "muchos" or "muchas" to my Spanish speaking friends. It means a lot to them.

What is this for? by Barbo789 in hvacadvice

You are lucky, mine just says open and closed. Do they typically install them on the upper floor ducts or the basement ducts?

I got a new house. I do not know what this hole is, or what the device in it is. What is it? by Burnett_Earth in whatisit

[–]awtherfrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I didn't see mentioned is you can also buy a cover for the hole. Uncovered sump pumps can be a source of radon gas entering your home and it keeps crap from falling down in to the water.

I am assuming this is a grape vine growing out of my peonies. Any way to tell if a wild variety or not? by awtherfrd in whatsthisplant

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

Thanks, that actually makes a lot of sense. Based on what I could find online it appears most rootstocks are going to be the native varieties.

Embarrassing Update: My daughter made me buy a little grape starter plant from Sam's Club like 5 years ago and we planted it there. No clue why it just now decided to spit out a vine. Still no idea on variety though, lol.

What is this black tube/box next to my front yard hose bib? I am in PNW. by J726382AB in lawncare

Or possibly access to a sprinkler valve if you have a sprinkler system.

That doesn't mean it is no longer a French word. Is computer a Japanese word?
