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 miss finding this kind of cool website on something like StumbleUpon back in the day

That's where I found a lot of those visual illusions back in the day. Like you could would stare At them and they would rotate in your view but weren't actually moving, and if you changed your view they could move the other direction or such. Those were neat.

Smoke breaks figure is ludicrously high. Come on Brian, we all know it doesn't take 20 minutes to smoke a cigarette!

I'm glad I quit smoking, but I can't deny I miss smoke breaks.

When i quit smoking i still took smoke breaks with the smokers. Just called it a mental health break instead. If smokers need a few minutes to ease their nerves with nicotine then the rest of us can take a few minutes to calm our nerves with fresh air.

Kinda makes you wonder why employers don’t just give everyone ten or so minutes every hour to… do nothing of value to the company.

Hey! It's me! I'm finally part of the 1%!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Why is it decreasing so much. Shouldn’t it be flat?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

Man this gives me a weird feeling. It's like the dashboard a god looks at while he plays Sim City with us.

It bugs me that it's not sorted in order of most to least, but it's a very cool page regardless :-D

Ah, well. That's fewer people having sex than I thought.

Wait that number is currently linearly increasing.

Goddamn
