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.

They really fell out of popularity here. I'm the only one of my peers I know who wears them at all. They definitely imply trashy with some crowds.
