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.

No it was when me and the rest of the rugby team crash landed in the Andes Mountains and we had a choice between cannibalism or eating vaginal-discharge imbued sourdough bread and we chose the bread.
Even in the circumstances, having a bread course first is the right thing to do.
Didn't a good chunk of the survivors freeze to death? How did you proof the bread in such a cold environment?
We crashed in the summer.
Ahh, I see you have all the answers
