Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Huh, that's pretty normal around here. But the German translation of "thread" is wrong. Literally unusable screw, light it on fire immediately.

In spanish it says it is a yellow single thread, no mention to screws

Wrong word for thread though. Should be rosca

In German it should be Gewinde.

Sideways on the corner of the box, "tornillo multiusos"

I love how evocative the word tornillo is. In my mind it translates as "little twisty thing".
