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.

I'm happy to be corrected

Ha! I've looked at your comment history and modlog and you're really not. You get defensive and have difficulty remaining civil. I'm done with you, goodbye.

Lmao. Did I already seen your alt? Is it lilbokchoy?

Anyway,

  1. That is the only part that even implies kids are included - in contrast to several parts that imply only adults.

  2. Get a life, man

I don't know what that is. My alt died on 7/1 with Lemm.ee.

Good to see you continue to get defensive and struggle to remain civil.

Now I will block you, little child.
