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.

The song also mentions the Beatles, and I'm sure there's at least one Belgian still in the Congo.

It mentions Beatlemania, which I think we can safely say has died.

And you'd need two Belgians in the Congo.
