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.

This is where we are as a society. We're here. We're at a place and time where a certain group of children are happy, and the media reports it as "Unusually happy and healthy".
As opposed to being diseased and miserable, like the rest of us!

They're not just happy, they're ranked as happiest in the world. That will always be unusually happy.
