An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Been doing a huge amount of work around the house lately in the holidays.

Currently power washing the pavers out back and filling the joins with sand. Should be more fun tomorrow.

Nah it was sitting right side up on the floor - they are upside down now

But you said elsewhere it was intended to be mounted this way? I’m so confused.

Not OP, but fellow Aussie who's mounted the odd dryer upside down on the wall like this. The dryer is able to be used either way up. The ones I've done tended to come with stickers to place over the control panel so the text is readable again. I've never bothered.

Thank you. This was driving me nuts.

Sorry, it is an option to be mounted on the wall.

Normally it would sit right side up in a stack or on the floor, by wall mounting you have to flip it so the controls are at the bottom which turns them upside down.

Its not an issue cause like I said in another comment its a number dial and a hot/cold toggle, nothing hard to figure out
