I just saw the community name. Why is this mildly interesting? This is at best, pretty depressing.

I think it's mildly interesting. I'm not American, so maybe that's why.

That which is depressing can also be interesting.

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.
