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 didn't have a budget or anything so I found it mildly interesting that it turned out an even number.

Literally any time you do anything like 10 × n it will end in a zero. All multiples of ten end in zero.

Same with 100 × n: it will always end with 00.

if it makes you feel any better, I did a couple semesters on math college plus a couple years on computer engineering and recently went to a therapist... When they asked me how old I was, I couldn't calculate my age for the life of me

I stayed about 2 fucking minutes trying to calculate it... And in the end it wasn't even the right age lmao
