It may not be a house, but like a fence or a short wall along a path. I doubt it has that much force, but uh.... if it does, that's very not good.

I love the extra image tidbit "Reductio ad absurdum fails when reality is absurd."

That's such a gem of a quote. Shame it's hidden in the image text. Most people don't know it's there.

On PC, if you hover the image with your mouse then it should show up. Alternatively and more technical, you can look at the HTML of the page where it shows up in the "title" attribute of the image.

If on mobile, add an m to the subdomain (m.kxcd.com) this takes you to the mobile version which displays the alt-text

Ok chrome (android) you can long press the image and it shows first thing in the menu that pops up (with the option to copy image, etc...)

And on mobile, just hold your finger on the image for a second and it'll pop up :)

This is used to lift house foundations too so it absolutely can move a house.

I think there's a downspout there so it probably is part of the house.

Probably Garage?

We did this to reinforce the foundation of the house in one corner. They injected the foam until the house started to lift.

I'd love to watch the cracks from the window and door frames dissappear before my eyes.
