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?

Most unbelievable part: Texas has a US flag but no Texas flag.
So was I staying in the wrong part of Texas? Moving there really made me begin to consider how the climate affects a region's architecture, and I don't believe I ever once saw a building with a gable roof the whole year and a half I was there. You see them very commonly in NC (the AI image is nearly spot on, and almost looks like the house I was born in), but in TX there is no snow, so they don't have to plan around the risk of the roof collapsing under the weight. Every one of them as far as the eye could see was pancake flat.
(I also keep forgetting about the flag thing, which is VERY real and sometimes ridiculous. I was very glad to know what state I was in at all times while getting the groceries)
