Dullsters
Inspired by the Dull Men’s Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This isn't an advice forum
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I've enjoyed it when I've visited but I'd probably go insane if I had to actually live there. Broadway? Nice. Fun times. Restaurants? Cool. The park??? Real neat. Living there??? Nuhuh.
I think I can say that about any North American city. I used to love the idea of living in Vancouver, but the reality is having to cross an 8 lane stroad to get to the bus stop on the other side and the bus is late because that lane is also used for parking and no one wants to do anything about than because storing private vehicles on public roadways is apparently a god given right.
Also there's barely any public washrooms so the whole city is basically roads and overpriced apartments.
That's just North American cities in general though. Shitholes because the infrastructure needed to develop a healthy economy just isn't there. People will pich ideas to develop it more but there's always the WhErE wiLl i PaRk My CaR push back.
