Anticorp,

If you’re only awake for 8 hours per day, you have a problem and should probably talk to your doctor.

Looks like there’s doors on both sides of the elevator. So there could be different businesses on front/back of the building.

This is a super simple setup, the elevator has both a north and a south door. but the ground floor (0) only has a north exit meaning that they never added a ground south floor. but they wanted aesthetics over functionality so instead of having an empty button slot and moving everything up, they changed the number so the south wing starts at 1 and north wing at 0

brygphilomena,

They just wanted the floor and room numbers to match up. Instead of starting the south wing at 200, they started it at 100. Kind of dumb, but at least if you have a room number you know which number to press.

    OpenHammer6677,

    In the Philippines we call these types of Gekoes tuko based on the sound.

    Parents would warn their kids to be careful when you hear them because when they fall on you, they’ll latch on to your skin and won’t let go

    I want to believe at least some dinosaurs were also brightly colored like this.

    They are bred in captivity as pets actually. They’re known for being quite bitey for a gecko though.

    EarnestCitizen, in Tokay Geckos Look Like Mini Dinosaurs

    Tokay gecko facts - these are sometimes sold in pet stores in the US, but are definitely not an entry level pet.

    They are notoriously temperamental, can run incredibly fast on walls, bark and hiss when irritated, and have a locking mechanism on their jaw that makes it so they won’t let go after biting until they consciously decide to let go. They can be pretty good pets if handled properly, but chances are they were not if you see one in a pet store.

    Green_Bay_Guy,

    Tokay gecko facts - the tokay and it’s sound are thought to be a good omen of successful business in Vietnam. Apparently they also make good jerky!

    My wife taught English in Thailand for a while. She liked hearing these in her room at night because it meant the mosquitoes would be less of a problem, but they could get pretty loud.
