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.

It always amazes me that in the USA you can go and get a free refill at McDonald's. Like you can get unlimited soda just by buying a cup?

I mean it costs the company ~10¢ per cup and they charge ~$2-$3 for the cup so I'd damn well better be able to refill it for free

When I worked fast food, the cup was about 10x more expensive than the contents of said cup. Since nobody will fill their cup 10x, the cost of the drink is negligent.

If the cup cost them 10c then likely the soda is at like 1c to fill it.

Fill it ten times for 20c total and they still making bank.
