boring cities

List of The Most Boring Cities in the World 




  • Westlock, Alberta, Canada. It’s basically just a few houses in the middle of nowhere. But nice. And there is a Tim Horton’s and an A&W, but the rest of it is home entertainment. I actually liked it so much at one point, I thought I might live there.
  • Pilgrimstad, Jämtland, Sweden. Yes, there is a brewery there, and a marina. Oh, and a holy spring, hence the name. But that’s it. Not even a convenience store. If you are stuck there, all you can do is sit by the lake, watch the boats, pray a bit, and think about all that beer in the brewery:
  • Heathrow Feltham, England. Really the only thing you can do there is wait for a flight out. And that’s what pretty much everyone does. The rest are probably saving up for it:
  • Middlemarch, Otago, New Zealand. Yes, they have a café. Other than that… just lots of quiet.
  • Munich, Germany. I know, I hear the masses cry out “Whhaaatt!?” But it is true. There is something unbelievably dead about Munich. It’s dead in a pretty way, but it still is. Not as in, “nothing going on,” because there is stuff going on there. It just doesn’t seem to have a soul. And yes, I would know. I grew up there.
  • Derby, England. You’d think a place with a name like that is worth visiting, but when you do… uh-oh. Nothing to see here, folks. Go to Nottingham.
  • Filadelfia, Chaco Boreal, Paraguay. While most of Paraguay gives you the thrill of easily falling prey to a mugging at knife point, Filadelfia is a comparably pious settlement dominated by German speaking Mennonites, where you can basically just sit and drink lemonade, and visit a museum with stuffed animals. You’re basically done there in 12 minutes.

Annara Mundu The medieval undergarments of women in Kerala, India

Image
Until about fifty years ago, most of the women of present-day Kerala in India used to wear undergarments called  onnara mundu  that literally translates to ‘one and a half a loincloth’. This was essentially a loincloth made of thinner cotton fabric and tied in a particular fashion. There used to be a little function for young girls on the threshold of puberty to move from a  konakam  or loincloth to the more sophisticated and feminine  onnara mundu . It was one of our rites of passage. The  onnara mundu  did for the waist what the corset did for the upper body for women in the West. The upper portion of the body was bare and so nobody really cared how ‘stuff’ grew :P All the focus was on the waist and downward. Hence the importance of the  onnara mundu.  It was tied very tightly around the growing waists of the girls to give them the trademark South Indian body shape as they grew older. But due to the fabric, it was very comfortable to wear a...

THE WHITE MUSLIMS - A LARGE GROUP SIMPLY NEGLECTED Whites and Muslims are always 2 different groups in the eyes of many westerners. But there are close to 100-150 million white Muslims in the broader description of the white race. and even in the most conservative definition of "white", there are close to at least 40-50 Million Muslims. Chechen Muslim insurgents who fought against Russia for independence There are the obvious white Muslims who live in Europe or on the edge of the continent in countries like Bosnia, Albania, Kosovo, Bulgaria, Russia and Turkey. The Definition of the White race has always been in debate since the formation of USA. America Described "anyone with middle eastern, European or North African Descent as white"  The middle east obviously has people who could fit the visible test of being white but then there are also quite a number of middle easterners who clearly look nothing like white. But despite the American c...

The Boy Who ate 150 gummy vitamins for breakfast  A  14-year-old  boy ate  150 gummy vitamins for breakfast , thinking they were gummy candies. He and his mother were immigrants, and he didn’t know the difference between gummy vitamins and actual candy. Up until this point, he ate  30  to  40  gummy vitamins every day, thinking they were candy. As time went on, his belly swelled up. His mother just assumed that he was eating too much. Then one day, he ate  150 gummy vitamins . One hour later, he can't stop urinating and complains to his mother that he has terrible stomach pain. He trips and falls, and breaks his arm. Then his mother calls 911 and an ambulance takes them to the hospital. As he’s sitting in the waiting room, he begins to lose consciousness. He then slips into a coma. A physical examination showed that there was fluid building up in his stomach, causing hypercalcemia, a high calcium presence in the blood. Which is strange becaus...
