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.

There are apparently a lot of different words for not-smooth bricks (lemmy.world)

Lmfao I was a part of that thread. Someone said they'd never heard of smooth bricks and I just showed them a picture of a normal red brick.

I hopped into that thread, ready to be an angsty stone mason and be all:
That's not brick you MFR! It might be garbage "cultured stone" where they grind up perfectly good stone, add a bunch of cement and form it in the shape of a proper stone veneer.

But other people had already done that and OP had already answered their own question, so I just took my torch and pitchfork and left.

Hah, i just read that and downloaded your normal red brick picture. Idk, it seemed like i could use this in the future. It's a pretty neat brick pic.

okay but what are perfectly smooth bricks called? I don't want ninjas or anything climbing up

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Glass? Suppose that isn't perfect either though. Better to make it all out of lubricated dildos. Ninjas struggle to hold onto them and you can catch a laugh watching a ninja wanker on up a wall

I know this is a joke but, polished.
