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.

No, I'm pretty sure it's like a baseball game. Some dude runs out there every so often and chalks the boundaries a mile or so in width so you can see them from space
