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.

You'd have to defeat the native emu population, though. Good luck with that

Kangaroo is good too. Very lean though, gotta add a little fat to it
