This Dumb Place

occono

How the heck could anyone live there? It's quite possibly the worst place on Earth. Then again, maybe its asshole population can easily put up with it.

I like Wisconsin because it has cows, seasons (i.e. it snows, but it is not always cold), the Green Bay Packers, two Great Lakes nearby, and a few other things.

Is that a blockquote?

Anyway, yeah, Connecticut is kinda boring.

DYRE

I wonder what that shows for people outside the US.

glennmagusharvey

It shows http://farzher.com/farzher/region_image/images/23.jpg .

I tried changing the URL to 22, and I get British Columbia.

That said, the source code is actually http://farzher.com/image.png .

Seems like this site, http://farzher.com/ , is one of those cryptic sites that a person uses to host their own stuff without giving it away.

^ Wait, so are pictures pre-prepared for basically everywhere? I assumed the PNG was generated after reading your IP, but I guess that would be incredibly intensive......

It was a blockquote, for some reason, I fixed it.

Trash_Vortex

Yeah, London is a dumb place.

Saigyouji

Well, I'll admit the pronunciation is a vile blight on mankind, at any rate.

Trash_Vortex

What I mean is, the image says London, but it's about half a country away from me.

Only because someone posted that "haters gonna hate" image:

nohaynicklibre

Funny thing is, I live in Aragón.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH Now I get it.

Tnophelia

It's not bringing up anything?

occono

^ You don't see any picture or it just doesn't say anything?

Yeah, screw them. Good thing I don't live there.

It only goes as far as 1580, so not everybody can join in... I wonder if my state is there.

Tnophelia

It isn't bringing up any picture.

Anonus

^^I don't know if it sucks (I have a pleasant memory of it raining there during my 2002 road trip), but what about the place is notable?

(I ask because of cuisine)

Hey, it works for Canada too!

I live in Florida now. Sure beats living in Lima.

Anonus

For some reason I thought you lived in Europe.

[Deleted User]

Maybe later.

I love how many people inadvertently revealed their location.

Not that it matters, I guess. I'll admit I live in Seattle. It's a nice place.

Electivirus

Tennessee for me.

>_>

Tnophelia

What is argyll

occono

Hmm, do you live in a really obscure place Tno? :P

It actually said "Limerick" and not "Ireland" for me, so I assumed it gave your town name. You guys are only getting your state name? Huh.

[Deleted User]

...what?

occono

I was asking if Tno lives in an obscure place that there isn't a picture for.

I stated my surprise that people were only seeing the name of their State, when I see my Irish town name.

What was confusing?

[Deleted User]

...OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

THE IMAGE AT THE BEGINING IS DYNAMIC, IT DOESN'T SAY "FLORIDA", IT SAYS "$LOCATION"

That explains everything! And there I was, thinking that it was quite a coincidence that it just happened to mention the state that I lived in and not quite getting the point of the thread... talk about failing to notice confusion.
