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 saw Mickey Mouse shaped fireworks at Disney world. The only thing was they clearly couldn’t control the orientation so occasionally Mickey would be upside down or sideways. I would imagine the same would be true here.
