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.

I'm a Michigander. We don't get ridiculous low temps like -70 or anything but, I wish most roads would be left alone. Plow and salt main Highways and expressways but, leave everything else undone. Then we can buy vehicles that can traverse the snow like sleds or good 4x4 rigs.

This would keep our roads nicer and would keep our cars from rotting out

If you have no traction it doesn't matter how many wheels have power to them your still gonna slip.

Amoung the tons of other issues with just not plowing some roads. Comment reeks of brainrot.

Sleds we're mentioned for a reason. Make it the job of the individual to decide if leaving here is worth the work or not
