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.

The sun in Japan is on a whole another level. Even if it's cloudy, even if it's winter, it's easy to get a sunburn. People with sensitive skin need to be especially careful.
The phrase is a whole 'nother level or a whole other level if you're boring.
Why is that?
Guess because UV levels are higher.
