I'd have been ok with "linchpin"

I received this E-mail:

fM IS OPEN AGAIN!!
this friday and saturday
500nt all-you-can-eat buffet from 6pm-10pm
great drink specials
Come celebrate with us as a Taichung mainstay continues to kick ass!
its fM AGAIN!


I'm going to have to object to their use of the word "mainstay". A mainstay is a central cohesive source of support and stability; fM is a central cohesive source of many things, but support and stability are not two of those things.
