What makes them think they're American? I don't see any guns or medical bills piled up?
The ceiling fan makes it likely. They're far more common here.
Are they? You'd think it'd be having an air conditioner
Often it's both!
The framed picture of a fan.
It's a mirror
No, it's a framed picture of a fan
Right, but why do they have a framed picture of a fan on the opposite wall from the mirror?
Why is the mirror non-reflective and shaped like a fan? Seems like an odd design choice.
Why would you have a framed picture of a mirror, that'd just be weird.
Americans are weird
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
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.
White with a hint of slumlord
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.
touche
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'm in Aus and we have ceiling fans
No you fuckin don't mate.
Get a load of this guy pretending Australia is real
We have them in Japan, but they're mostly at businesses. That's slowly changing for homeowners, but not as much for renters (due to rules about modifying things).
