    if you want structures, well infrastructure, or something that is natural in some odd way but looks like it, check out the flyby closeup image mosaic called a close detailed look at the craters on pluto.
    tell me those don't look like dirt roads and kaiju size banana slugs driving on them. you need to scroll 2/3rds of the way down the image to see what i'm talking about.
    there's a scale of distance on the image that would make them close to a mile long. so yah, whatever it is we're seeing probable isn't that.
    but some things can sure look like other things sometimes.

    Cool I'll have a look later. I like looking at the distinct straight roads and ways, I know God doesn't build in straight lines so it's always peculiar and interesting.

    Some of the faces and such on Mars I mean you have to have the right imagination to see them, I see the old face, it looks like a face to me but then again I see the face on the moon too, and that's from craters and such. But thay original face on Mars seems very very smooth to me, which is different from all else around it. But there'd also similar structures resembling the formations of Egyptian and souther American cities too which I find interesting.

    That's the original one, there's another new one now that's supposedly female I remember seeing it and you could see it, but half the face is worn away so you do have to use your imagination a little

    Haven’t had a Mars Bar in 10 years, but yes, we have Mars Bars

    Btw the bar wasn’t named after the planet it was named after the creator Frank Mars

    Either at least ten people have to get shot or Trump has to say something for it to make news in the US.

    Yeah when I read that a 14-year-old boy was killed in a car crash in Sydney due to the flooding I figured that was VG for sure .

    Seriously, I had to laugh, there were a bunch of flights cancelled out of Sydney on Saturday because of dust storms somewhere, all back to normal on Monday when I flew out, then a day later Sydney gets its biggest rain storm since WW1.

    God loves this fag at least

    well, actually some straight lines do occur in nature. they're just not obvious or dominant. the edges of crystals are one example, though a small one. a larger example are the edges of clay that cracks from drying out. there is a similar thing that happens even in large rock formations when too rapid cooling causes them to split, and then there's the virtical striations of columnar basalt, though their cause is similar to that of crystal growth dectated by molecular structure. true you won't see any roman rectangular grids though.

    the 'dirt roads' on pluto aren't entirely 'straight' but they're not all twisty either, more like the mud crack effect, which they may be and probably are something similar. but they are double, like tire tracks.
    and there are a couple of darker objects sitting on them at a couple of points just as traffic would be. probably just piles of dark rock, but what causes either effect might be fun to find out, and worth sending some kind of robotic probe to do so.

    What do you normally do in Thailand? You go there often, right?

    I had a Mars bar in America, it was 18 years ago.. but it was NOT LIKE an English Mars bar ( I assume all European Mars bars are the same?)
    It was a whole different thing. Different layers. And rubbish chocolate.
