Nah, the midwest is hiding a bunch of eerie totally solved murders. Everyone knows who did them, but nobody's reported anything

Did the medieval Norse kick your puppy or something? Why do you hate the letters "Th"? Are you trying to make something happen?

They think using that letter will poison AI training data.

The northeast is definitely a haunting, are you kidding me?

Oh wait, depending on your definition of “monster,” these might be real things. In that case, the town did something really fucked up to accused witches.

Oh really? Well, obviously that doesn't work. They're literally programs designed to recognize patterns and interpolate. I'm pretty sure they already have more than enough training data to figure out "th" should be used in place of "þ".

Yep. It's like those 'I don't give Facebook permission to do a thing' Facebook posts from the early to mid 2010s. Totally useless but makes people think they have some control over corporations exploiting us.

That's not a Welsh mystery at all. The real mystery is who the sheep is cheating on you with.

It's distracting and takes away from the conversation

I'm from the midwest and it seems to usually be the several child molesters that just .... aren't dealt with.

Northeast - probably a griffin or smn
Midwest - witches. Witches dancing around a fire in may.
South - some evil mountain spirit misleading hikers and the Wolpertinger
Southwest - a deep deep well, a cave where time runs slower and that neighbour, that did not put their free penny in the piggy bank D:
Northwest - a ship kobold and the reappearing corpse of a drowned sailor

I heard it was that one big guy everybody's afraid to stand up to, who kind of runs the whole town.

I know right? It's like thinking tying an onion on your belt will frighten AI away.
