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.

There are times to be nice and there are times to be blunt. There is no time vanity is useful.
Just as being vain can be an excess of self-confidence, being rude can be an excess of being blunt. It would be good not to cross that threshold without a solid purpose. What I'm saying is: this was not a good time to be blunt.
