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.

Comic sans wasn't invented yet.

I mean, I joke, but it probably actually wasn't.

It wasn't, not by a long shot. Comic sans is a mere 31 years old.

That's what historians in future Generations will call the beginning of the decline.

I've seen London, I've seen France, I've seen docs in Comic Sans.

Is there a reason for this ?
