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 map made me realize how small Great Britain really is. I drive 550 miles to visit my mom in the US, Great Britain is only 600 miles long from north to south.

I'm gonna say it.

Even though we're fucking tiny. We were some proper nasty bastards.

This weekend I drove over 500 miles to get to the Oregon coast from a neighboring state of which I live close to the border. The total distance I traveled could have taken me from Spain into France then into to Italy and then end up in like Switzerland or Austria or Slovenia or something. Could see Barcelona, Marseille, Florence, Milan, Zurich, but instead I saw hundreds of miles of nothing and then the Pacific ocean lol.
