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 have freaked out several people because I stop mid-drive to carry turtles across the road.

Remember: take it to the side it's moving toward or it will just cross again.

Slow but determined!

Well, this turtle isn’t really crossing, looks like it is hurrying along the road for an important appointment.

As we discovered in DM: No it isn't, but it's truthy enough for US government work

Wouldn’t that be tortoise crossing?

Technically all tortoises are turtles

Thought they were distinct, never mind me then

All tortoises are turtles, but not all turtles are tortoises. Like all toads are frogs, but not all frogs are toads.
