Several interesting answers from everyone. Congrats to a few who got it right.

This is a picture of an aisle in an abandoned store in Fukushima Japan, 10+ years after the 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear plant incident that devastated the area.

[abc3643]

A supermarket or other market in the aftermath of the Fukushima earthquake / tsunami.

I guess this because:

1) it looks like a supermarket,

2) the products have an Asian language which, to me, appears Japanese,

3) the dishevelment would be due to an earthquake or other natural disaster,

4) the cobwebs indicate abandonment which would happen in a radioactive area.

WOW! I was right!

Picture #2 of 30.

So, with the advent of online shopping, there are a lot of abandoned shopping malls in the USA. The shopping mall boom was in full swing in the 1980's through the 1990's.

So, I am going with an abandoned shopping mall, that was vandalized and then sat empty for the last decade awaiting demolition.

Or its some type of public building that was hit by a natural diester and then abandoned... or maybe it is from the Chernobyl Accident 1986, or an old mining town that was abandoned.

The boxes have Japanese writing on them? Is it some storage unit abandoned after a natural disaster? Stuff on the floor suggests an earthquake or lack of women. The spiderwebs mean it's not deep inside a building and exposed to the open air. Unbroken suggests no one goes inside to nick stuff pointing to a continuing danger that frightens people off. Radiation? Is it near that radiation leak in Japan that happened a few years ago?

Maybe its the factory where they make Mr. Sparkle dishwasher powder...

It looks like a store with shelves that now messed up with everything on the ground, perhaps due to a tornado or earthquake. Why? I see a black shopping cart to the right in the foreground. The web-like cracked portion of the picture suggests the picture was taken through a cracked window of the store.
How’s that for doing detective work?

[Amy10223]

Thanks for the MHO.

[Amy10223]

A lot of earthquakes have occurred in Japan, the more recent ones after New Year’s Eve this year and later a few weeks before I left for there.

I have no idea what this is, but it reminds me of a joke:


W. What do you get when you throw a grenade into a French kitchen?
A. Linoleum Blownaparte!

A look at Donald Trump's, um, brain.

[OlderAndWiser]

Why must everything be divisive politics?

[handsomelad70]

As opposed to bonding politics? Don't know, OAW.

It's an abandoned grocery store from the looks of it, you have a shopping cart, obviously shelves were product used to be, you can see labels were prices would be and what looks like some sort of deli or counter in the back.

[Iron_Man]

it looks like a rat hole a place where drug users would go to drug use drugs dealer and just store a bunch of garbage and sleep for a few hours and do their drugs and leave. It’s absolutely depressing and disgusting. They probably sell their stuff there as well

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I think it looks like maybe a factory of some sort. Like maybe mailing or paper possibly. It's looks like this because it's been abandoned for years and was left a mess for whatever tragedy happened before.

[NathanDavis]

that has to be Australia...

and probably their smallest spiders too...

I don’t know!

probably America after trump loses the elections.

disclaimer, I’m not an American so I don’t have any political views.

It’s just a show to me, keeping up with the Americans reality show.

[Opinion Owner]

As for the real answer, It’s China’s Fukushima's abandoned radioactive exclusion zone.

[Anonymous]

A place that had to be abandoned due to contamination or something

[FunkyMonkee]

It's part of an old grocery store that hasn't been used in decades and the mess is probably due to assholes that broke in and threw everything all over the place.

@AviatorTom A grocery store in Gaza that was bombed at?

This is the filing system in Joe Bidens brain.

[msc545]

You ever comment on anything on the site without referencing Biden or Democrats in a derisive way? How about even when it has nothing to do with the original question at all?

[exitseven]

@msc545 sorry, but the jokes just write themselves.

[msc545]

I don't think anybody finds it funny. I certainly don't.

[exitseven]
