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.

Ignorance of the past isn’t really an excuse to keep being ignorant of the future.

“It’s a museum” is a reason why people ignored the British outright stealing India’s cultural heritage.

Sure it COULD be a monument to the ignorant usage of petroleum. But why are you so desperate to make it such?
