A big red button (BRB), sometimes called a big red switch (BRS), is a real or fictional button with ... Firing or detonating a weapon, typically a nuclear device. :)
-
someone has a vivid imagination...lol
-
It looks like a record button
-
An on\ off button on a microwave
-
I'll go for one of those call buttons that hospital patients use when in bed
-
Its one of those buttons that does everything, no matter where you are you just stick it on the wall and press it and amazing things happen, like waiters turn up, taxies arrive, your mail gets delivered to your table etc., I must get me one before someone presses it to get the men in white coats to turn up and take me away!!!
-
Ok so how many wines had you had Babs...lol
None of you are remotely close ::)
-
Me thinks its a saucer, for a cup!
-
Its is an eject button ,just one press and the unwanted rellies disappear on Xmas day.
-
Is it the eye of the computer( Hal ) in Stanley Kubricks movie 2010 a space odyssey
-
Fire Alarm?
-
A Dragon's eyeball
-
I will go with Hank. We all need one of these.....lol
No to all those crazy ideas.
The photo would be the size of it, so maybe a bit bigger than what you are thinking.
Hint:
Pushing the red button will do nothing especially ejecting family members :D
-
A door bell
The starter button of some kind of machinery
-
Question...is the red bit movable from the rest of what we see?
-
Can we have a hint please?
Is it indoor or outdoor?
-
So it's a useless big red button?
-
So if its not a button it must be a light of some kind
-
Yes you could take it apart but in normal use you would not.
What you see is the 'whole' as so to speak.
The red button does nothing whatsoever.
Indoor or out door? Both, but would probably be used more out door.
Something you would not use regularly only on certain occasions.
I knew this one would have you guys and it is so obvious once you know :)
-
Is it used with water?.
-
Can be, yes.
-
Ross I would say no to set you on the right track.
-
I try water sprinkler
-
Yep I thought that too, but not sure why or how you would use that inside. Maybe JL means inside a glasshouse or something.
If so the red pop up bit is fancy schmancy. Maybe it's red because it is hot water lol
Q: is it something that most houses will have?
-
No to sprinkler.
Most homes would have these although not used so much anymore. Now a days other 'thingies' are used instead.
In fact Gabba this is something you may have used during your last week of tiki touring around say 20 years ago. Now that is a big HINT....lol
Definitely can be used inside and outside of house to qualify that.
More likely outside. But in saying this, it is also misleading ;D
-
Is it part of a container of sorts.
-
Inside of top of Thermos flask
-
I am stumped on this one! Can't recall seeing anything like this....
It looks art deco...from the sixties or seventies.
Is this a side view or topside view?
-
Sink Plug
-
Almost Babs :)
Change the first word.
-
Outside of the top of a Thermos flask?
-
Well done for guessing this one Babs.
Its looking down on the top of the thermos flask which screws off. The flask is underneath.
Good one huh :)
-
Almost had me stumped then I gave it a bit more thought, dusted the brain cells and bingo....
-
Yes well done babs. Good sleuthing
-
Ta muchly weather folk and folkesses.
-
That was my first thought when I saw it but thought it must be harder than that lol
-
No one will believe that Mark...lol. Nice try though :)
-
I never would have guess that! Well done Babs!
