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 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.
