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.

You do lighting for Linkin Park, and you got a sweet packet with Linkin Park written on it in front of you, and are posting an image of same with Linkin Park in the middle of the image. You still misspell the name.

Well, those things are essentially pure sugar, so they are still edible.

Chester wasn't though

Either that or you'll be making Linkin Logs

That’s a quitter’s attitude.

I don’t know if this comment is about stale candy or suicide.

[–] StarvingMartist@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Where did you see that? I honestly can't see it in the image

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 10 points 1 month ago

That's the day Chester took a leave of absence from the band

They just get kind of stale and extra chewy. Still good probably.

Its start with one thing, I don't know why I'm giving you gummies so you don't cry.

I was equally puzzled. The spelling is on the packaging in the picture they uploaded.

They should be worms you insert into your skin.

[–] Zomg@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Yeah, so they can crawl in my skin

Why is Booboo from Yogi Bear the singer?

Not enough people go camping anymore, so the picnic basket market is no longer viable and they were forced to diversify.

The bear (Goldbär = gold bear) is the mascot from the Brand (HARIBO = Hans Riegel Bonn), a German sweets company. They came up with the Goldbär because of the then competitor "Gummibären" (gummy bears). The bear is on most types of gummies the brand offers link to online shop if interested sometimes together with the liquorice-boy.

Yeah, I heard about that from a podcast the other day. 😞

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I worked a show as some sort of stage hand for them one time. It was my first day, absolutely no direction, but it was so much fun

[–] simplejack@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I don’t know why.

[–] BetaBlake@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Scientology reasons

Isn't that a suburb in Chicago?

[–] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I mean, it's on the picture, how do you get the spelling wrong on the title?

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 month ago

Do you work at Haribo? Do you get free gummies???
