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.

Same brand of soup, but one soup package has a slightly different shape and a different folding.

Thought this was Mildly Annoying, and I would have agreed. As a retail stocker, the shelf expects them to all be the same, but the one that's a slightly different shape usually doesn't fit as many as the rest. It's even worse when companies decide to change the packaging for the same product, like Stouffers, and I have to spend an extra five seconds determining if the items are the same or aren't.
