The Taipei 101 Building sits just over 600ft from a major fault line. This big ball thing keeps it from swinging. My big balls do the exact opposite.

hey, our commissary is build on one of those…but that’s b/c this whole place was built on a swamp.
The other kings said it was daft to build a commissary in a swamp, but they built it all the same!
well, the first one fell over into the swamp, so they built a second one, that burned down fell over then sank into the swamp, but the third one stayed up, and that’s where i buy my groceries, the strongest commissary in all of Germany!
And it sank into the swamp.
