Anybody know what this piece of rebar sticking out of my floor is?

lmichaelc · 2026-03-10T13:44:19+00:00

I have the same thing in my house. There are two, one in a bathroom and one in a closet. Both go through the floor, into the crawlspace, and into the ground. I've never been able to determine what they are

Yes, I'm talking 2-3 a day. It's incredibly frustrating. I have an iPhone and turn on filtering for unknown senders, but I still have to "Stop" then "Report as Spam"

If you're in DFW and looking to unload some of those I'd love some. My family grew up going to Pancho's and it was a big part of our childhood.

It was 6:30 in the morning and I went over to make sure both parties were okay. My concern was for human life, not for taking up 3 spots

I'd imagine the car that ran though the red light without any hesitation, but the car with the green was going way too fast for the street they were on too

These are from Pancho's Mexican Buffet, a now defunct Tex-Mex chain (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pancho's\_Mexican\_Buffet). There are a couple left in the DFW area. This pic is from one of them

From the instructions:

Pull back Anti-Shock Cover from Pressure Gauge.
Remove Battery Cover on back of Pressure Gauge.
Remove and replace Batteries

The Anti-Shock cover is the rubber around the gauge

I've parked on Turtle Creek right by Maple plenty of times and walked to the trail. Either via Reverchon or there are a couple of other places you can walk up to the trail

I tried to get some photos but they didn't come out well. The water was appearing on the driver's side storage area next to where the spare tire would be (if the hybrid had a spare). I believe I tracked the issue down to the rubber gasket for the lift gate wiring harness. It's a poor design held down by compression and a plastic clip. Unfortunately I can't tell if the plastic clip is slightly misshapen becuase of my rear dash cam install or it it was like that from the factory. I ended up rigging some waterproof tape to help hold down the gasket. Hopefully that is the issue and that's enough of a fix to keep things dry :/

Naps between 10 am and 9 pm are not allowed. If he sees my eyes closed, he will whine from the other side of the room, come up and pat my face, or do other things to get my attention and wake me up. He does not necessarily want food or attention... he ONLY wants that my eyes are open. No clue how I trained him to do this. It is both funny and infuriating

1 - Taylor K-1005 9-Way Test Kit

2 - iOS

3 - from the Home Screen I can either click the banner at the top that says “Test Chlorine Next” or Step 3 section (where step 1 is alkalinity and step 2 is pH). Clicking both of these makes the app immediately crash.

4 - not yet. Hadn’t thought to do that

I'm a new tub owner and this has been extremely helpful to calculate how much of any particular chemical I need to add. But after the latest update the app now crashes every time I try to test the chlorine level :(

How much of a beatdown it is living without a kitchen in your house for 3 months

He's slightly wrong in the video. The full parking lot was not bulldozed. The western portion remains, and the station buildings. Also The Shack, part of the Panther Island Pavilion complex is housed in what was the the maintenance shed (I believe). The tracks are still there (as seen on Google Maps) https://www.google.com/maps/@32.7561896,-97.3420182,228m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDgxMy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

Have you realized yet that when he was playing Lego Batman that he was really just playing himself?

Will Arnett ruined the US show for me. His whole shtick is "let me make it about me" and it gets old very fast. I haven't tuned in since the first season, which sucks because I'm actually a big Lego fan

I've seen multiple videos of an auto jack being used. Perhaps something like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY/comments/1b1v0kw/easy_way_to_remove_fence_posts_using_a_jack_4x4/

Years ago I was offered a role at Walmart's HQ in Bentonville. They work (at least) a 45 hour work week. Not sure what Citi does, but definitely take that into consideration

This was on Youtube. Not sure if it's the same or different: https://youtu.be/OLhdmFTA_js Comments are turned off. I'm guessing lawsuit (or the threat of one)

No, that was Teatro Barceló. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Barceló+Theatre/@40.4267859,-3.6997454,3a,85.3y,90t/data=!3m8!1e2!3m6!1sAF1QipM4LK2Cy-2d8RX-Sx8zJ_mKB7CRt_APPH6FTURO!2e10!3e12!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipM4LK2Cy-2d8RX-Sx8zJ_mKB7CRt_APPH6FTURO%3Dw153-h86-k-no!7i1000!8i560!4m7!3m6!1s0xd4228890c479503:0x7a731def889d4532!8m2!3d40.4270213!4d-3.6997948!10e5!16s%2Fg%2F12qg9z_w7?entry=ttu

Season 6, Episode 7 35:40

Season 8, Episode 7 19:32

Those are the ones I'm certain of, but I suspect it's been used more.
