    You know, U.S. Route 666 used to be a real highway. It was a spur of the famous US 66, running through Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah.

    US 666 was renumbered twice: in 1991, the Arizona portion became an extension of US 191, and in 2003, the rest of the highway became US 491. The changes were made in response to high rates of sign theft and—I shit you not—the belief that the highway was cursed (as the NM portion had an unusually high fatality rate).

    You can split it into multiple posts over a few minutes of time.

    You act like belief in curses is some weird thing

    Sometimes I worry that believing in them gives them strength :/

    Well, it's unusual (or at least uncommon) for legislative decisions to be made based on belief in curses, right?
  • Ugggghhh where is my supervisor

    One time during my internship last year I got to work and our office was locked.

    Only then did I think to check my phone, to see that my supervisor had sent me a text telling me she would be in late and I'd have to let myself in with the spare key she hid in the break room.

    YNTKT

    After all those years of going out of my way to look at road work sites, they're finally bringing one to me! :P

    two screens' worth isn't stupidly long

    two screens' worth isn't stupidly long

    Especially given this forum's layout, where the post itself occupies only like half the width of the actual screen.

    As soon as I got in from photographing that "no parking" sign it started raining

    Yay good timing!

    oh, i remember hearing that there were supposed to be hellhounds and phantom hitchhikers sighted around Route 666

    Also, another one for the collection:

    In the early 2000s the BMV tried switching from 3M reflective sheeting to cheapass Avery stuff, so a lot of these Bicentennial plates haven't aged well. :\

    It does, mean, however, that I have a full run of expirations from 2007 to 2012 now! (Though the '08 and '11 stickers are on the same plate)

    moogoo

    Yep

    Also, more trivia: Route 666's parent route, the famous Route 66, technically hasn't existed since 1985, when the designation was deleted from the highway system. But it still functionally exists, as it's shown on nearly all maps and the individual states have all posted signs for "Historic Route 66".

    My grandma taught me how to curse people once.

    I love my grandma.

    Does liking shiny things make me childish?
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    liking shiny things seems to be a human universal so i'd say not
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    tho it could also mean you are a magpie, i guess

    Well like I was looking for something in the garage and I found the reflector from an old bike so I brought it in and started playing with it with a flashlight

    Seems like the kind of thing that a 3-year-old would be entertained by, and I haven't been a 3-year-old in a couple decades now

    ooooooooooooooh shiny

  • More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
    Mega Man X6 is bad but at least it has its cool moments. Mega Man X7 is worse and finishing it without falling asleep was hard.

    I like cowboy hats and fezs

    Cowboy hats are cool. I don't know how you'd pull off a fez without looking like you belong in a tiny car.

    dear somebody who needs brainless wage slaves to make them money: please offer me the privilege of being one. sincerely, someone "unhireable"
