There was a nicotine + adhd thread today in c/[email protected] and I got to write a few paragraphs about my favorite subject: anything tobacco.
I don’t know particularly what is so cool about it, but I just can’t get enough information on the subject. Old fashioned snuffboxes, cigarette boxes and holders, pipes… And the rich history and culture of each brand and style and how it evolved in every part of the world is just so interesting to me.
So it made me curious about what are some of the other more unconventional special interests around this community
Road signs. I can recognise most countries by the road signs and their fonts. Comes in handy for geoguessr
When I was little I memorised the Highway Code book, which is the UK guide to road law and use - it has a really good sign guide. Risk of Falling Rocks was my favourite, while now I live in Spain I’m undecided between the No Motorcycling and Danger of Cattle signs (the Spanish risk of falling rocks sign is lame)
