What makes them think they’re American? I don’t see any guns or medical bills piled up?
The framed picture of a fan.
It’s a mirror
Why would you have a framed picture of a mirror, that’d just be weird.
Americans are weird
Why is the mirror non-reflective and shaped like a fan? Seems like an odd design choice.
No, it’s a framed picture of a fan
Somehow I can tell it it’s a room in a USian or canadian house, not sure why exactly though. Maybe it’s the closets, door styles, the carpet, or how they paint their walls. Windows, outlets and door knobs are a dead giveaway.
US: pastel colours, gaudy ceiling furniture, furniture the colour of the walls, tacky metal frames sprayed with gold, needless 6-panelled doors, walk-in closet.
If this was UK: white walls + cheap spotlights that point nowhere, wood-coloured furniture, tacky metal frames but thinner and black, smaller doors with stupid handles, no closet.
If this was Germany: white walls + no ceiling fixtures, cheap but wooden furniture, tacky metal frames but strong for some reason, clearly framed doors, wide light switches for household pets, no closet.
UK here. We use magnolia for every wall, thank you very much
…what the hell is magnolia
White with a hint of slumlord
It’s a particular shade of paint. It’s widespread enough in the UK that multiple brands do their own version of Magnolia. It’s often what’s used when people don’t want to have to decide what colour to paint, or in council housing, and it’s increasingly common in private rentals.
Found the non-Brit!
If you can’t answer the question, then the criteria for citizenship is highly dubious
I’m not a Brit, so why would I know what magnolia is? All we’re required to know is eggshell.
It’s the unpainted walls because why bother if you can’t afford it and your landlord will soft-evict you by doubling rent in a year?
It’s definitely painted, otherwise you’d see the
cardboarddrywall, maybe it’s the choice of colour.It looks original from the builders.
I don’t think there are other countries with ceiling fans?
I saw one in Liechtenstein.
Fair, so either US or Liechtenstein. 😄
Saw them in Syria, Lebanon, Turkey and Iran. Prob any really hot country has them.
I had one in my first apartment, in Sweden, but I had one of those really high beds you can keep a desk under, so I had to watch my head when climbing down.
And also watch my head when standing up from the desk. But hey, I had both a desk, an armchair and a bed!

I’m in Aus and we have ceiling fans
Get a load of this guy pretending Australia is real
No you fuckin don’t mate.
There was r/scienceofdeduction@reddit.com that basically tries to find as much information about the person just from a photo. I once found an exact window location to the room where the picture was taken. You would be suprised how much information can be extracted from one picture.
Erm, that looks like a mirror reflecting the ceiling fan, not a framed picture of a ceiling fan.
Somebody get this guy the Detective of the Year award
Perhaps it’s reflecting a picture of a ceiling fan.
Thats what I thought too at first, but notice the soft pastel colours separated by the diagonal, as if in a fragrant meadow of flowers, bisected by the hard steel blades of the fan, the artist showing the juxtaposition between country and city life, whilst the fan itself is depicted at an elusive angle, like an anxious child shying away from their duties.
No this is clearly the work of a Master.
Is it not a mirror?
Granted it would be strange to place a mirror so high
Mirror is face-ish high, to look at your ugly mug.
I have my mirrors much lower so I can admire my better as(s)pects.
No its framed picture of a celling fan.
Can confirm, am American and we’re obligated to hang a picture of a ceiling fan. I don’t make the rules.
You’d see the left wall in the reflection, if you wanted to show the opposite corner, like in that picture, the mirror needs to be arcoss facing the camera directly.
I don’t know why i remembered i had this somewhere in my dusty folder full of thousands of old memes, but:
i have this exact picture in the bottom of my old reddit drawer, thats been expanding for 2 years and now merging with my Lemmy drawers…
That is a weird place for a mirror, to be fair.
Why do Americans do weird shit like this?
Then the question becomes, “Why do you have a mirror hanging over your fireplace?” It’s too high for practical use.
Mirrors can make rooms feel bigger, even if you can’t see yourself in it
Could just be tall. As a 6’5’’ guy this mirror would be perfect for me.
Wut is “mirror?”
A portal to an alternate dimension where I am ugly.
Oh my god this is the best “straight line” type of joke I’ve heard in a long time. I just told my six year old they loved it
Funniest thing I’ve read in a long time
What Mr. Blades and I do in the privacy of our home is none if your business!
Are we censoring Pepe now?
It’s a rare abstract Pepe.
That is the pepe.
Lol, it’s obviously not a picture of a fucking fan, those have dildo blades.
