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.

The Highway to Hell (Hwy 666) runs through the town of Redditt, Canada. Department of Transport changed its number due to its antichrist conotations. (en.wikipedia.org)

They probably were just tired of having to replace the road signs that people were constantly stealing.

I imagine the town itself has had some "Welcome to Redditt" signs disappear too.
