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.

My God. If wind hits my eyes it hurts. Can't imagine them hitting against a steak. And the jarring effect on vision. Why? Why do this?
Amphibians are weird as hell, that's why.
OP tried to clarify but seems didn't clarify enough: that's talking about normal frogs with normal eyes, they use the back side of the eyes to push down food, presumably it doesn't feel any worse for them than you poking the side of your eye through the eyelid.
