Mildly 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.

So it's summer season. Was it supposed to be a bit to the North, or a bit to the south? Or a lot to the north? until when is it considered summer anyway? October? November? It's still pretty hot out there.

The last time that happened, I was trying to hurry back home, before the rain started pouring. And guess what? I couldn't see the sun.
