When doing a bathroom repair I needed a few additional tiles that would be impossible to find (was an old house). Guess what I found when we busted open the wall… the leftover tiles from when the house was built like 70 years prior! I could almost feel some tile layer from generations prior giving me a little smile and pat on the back.
Not very useful to find once you've crushed up half the existing tiling.
Breaking up the 50 year old concrete pad near my house, I found old 1970s crushed beer cans buried under the concrete (the kind that predate the attached pull-tab). Kind of a neat link through time, imagining them sweating in the same sort of heat that I was.
Of course, it might also explain some of the other 'questionable' issues in the construction that I keep finding...
Our main character drives up to a pub/bar/restaurant of some sort, sits by the counter and orders an alcoholic drink. Proceeds to drive elsewhere later as though DUI laws didn't exist.
As long as you’re not chugging it, drinking a 12oz 4.5% ABV beer probably won’t be over the limit.
Add to it that, in the XIX century, "functioning alcoholism" was basically the norm for most men.
Obviously things are different today: alcoholic drinks are now built explicitly to get you drunk as fast as possible, and hence are increasingly incompatible with modern living and working practices.
Impressive on the rabbits end, pretty infuriating on the builders end.

B) that page must be ChatGPT authored, right?
That said, it's a generic company website, the owners and their website building company will put a lot of general information and padded fluff on sites like this to try and increase SEO.
Makes me think of those old razor blade disposal slots.
They were basically a slot you shoved used single-blade razor blades to dispose of them... into the interior of the wall.
On the other hand, much nicer to the garbage men.

I use something like this which is the same concept, though not integrated into my house: https://www.amazon.com/Feather-Styling-Razor-Disposal-Case/d...
