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.

West Virginia is not the south. West Virginia exists because they were so insistent on not being the south.

The sheer number of confederate flags that fly in WV sure does make it feel southern.

You'll also find a ton in Ohio and Pittsburgh and even Canada. At this point, the flag has very little to do with being southern.
