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.

At least they were nice about it and didn't make some colonial ass slur about "civilized society"

It wouldn’t be colonial, though. Britain didn’t start its switch to the metric system until 1965. The colonists wouldn’t have been using metric, seeing as they came from Britain.

I feel like I know less about the weather there having looked at these bars.

Ahh...you must be the chosen one that can live next to hell gate

Hell yeah could have filmed their music video for “Hush” in this place, and the weather would have just been an added touch.

Nobody wants Hellyeah to visit

Eh, there are still metal fans that would attend a show if they played a set.

Ahh you’re probably stuck near the heat dome

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yep! I just saw that article this morning. We aren’t the epicenter of the heatdome, but we are in it.

But wait! There’s more! Back to the ‘80’s soon!

Nope. I don’t live there. I had a job offer there once, and I turned it down for a job in Northern California. Piece of advice, if you don’t have close family in any area that offers you a job, don’t move there. It won’t last.

I actually do have family in Redding. I just don’t have any family in the coastal areas of Northern California. I just wasn’t meant to be a hippie, I guess. It just isn’t in my blood.
