Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This couple that was in the same train as me, left their seats to change the diaper of their little baby.

Not only did they go away from their luggage, but they left two phones and a large tablet visible and unattended for quite some time!

This is one of the fundamental things in danish society. We live in a society.

Plot twist: OP took this photo moments before he stole all their shit.

Extra plot twist: OP took the photo with the phone he stole from the seat before.

This thread is the perfect alibi for OP, AKA the mobile bandit, the name being a reference to the items they steal and the fact that they only steal items while travelling

when I went to Denmark this year, my train was full of my fellow Londoners.

Tip from me, don't leave anything unattended as long as you allow tourists.

Thanks for your clever solution

Who says everyone on the train is from Denmark? Leaving expensive items unattended in public is a stupid thing to do, no matter where you are.

How do you feel about the danish standard of leaving babies outside in their stroller to sleep?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Nobody wants to steal your noisy shit machine.

Norway does that too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

A believe all of Scandinavia does.

It sure streamlines the adoption process.

How often do you think something bad happens?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Like 7 times. At least.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

Per nap. At least.

I think it’s great. Normalize children being left alone.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

You mean like school shootings has been normalized in a certain police state?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Nah, it can be totally fine.

I don't want to pack my entire train setup everytime I need to take a piss, especially when there is a close to zero chance that anything will get stolen.

How is Denmark dealing with refugees again?
