ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

The Longest Way

Imagine you and your friends want to get from your house to the park. There are many different ways to get there, but your friends want to take the longest way.

The longest way means taking the route that goes the farthest distance from your house to the park. This might mean going down streets that are out of the way or taking longer turns that loop around.

Even though it takes more time to get to the park, your friends might want to take the longest way because they enjoy seeing different parts of the city or they think it's fun to take a longer trip.

While this might not always be the most efficient way to get to your destination, it's a fun way to explore and see new things. Just make sure you have enough time to travel the extra distance!
