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.

Specific rules are a response to specific events.

Just like the “Do not throw mice at coworkers” disclaimer on boxes for Dell computers way back when.

Elephants are not allowed to walk free in the streets of Chicago, and barbers are not allowed to consume a bottle of Jack Daniels before going to work. I assume a bottle of anything else is fine.
