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.

Older, wiser, less desperately horny men: if it doesn't have a flared base, or if there's any possibility it could come apart or break, don't put it in. Source: the internet.
They say you gotta be careful of where you dig in Europe, as to not disturb live explosives from old wars. But this is just getting out of hand!
It was a one in a million shot!
