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.

Saw this in a parking lot today. I feel bad for the bee but that's pretty mildly interesting.

mildly interesting fact about this type of antenna: see this spiralling wire? it's not there for any electrical reason. it's made this way because it was discovered that wire like this makes antennas wobble less in wind, or when vehicle is moving
