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've eaten a lot of Tony's chocolate, and one day I was strolling around Amsterdam on Street View and noticed a whole shop devoted to it. Wow! And I thought, huh, in Holland they call it ChocoLONELY, not ChocoLONEY.

Fast forward and there I was, scouring UK grocery sites and discovering the horrible truth: it had always been lonely. Why? WHY, TONY? What are you trying to say?

My own little Berenstain Bears moment.
