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 call them “knuckle dents” because that’s what they look like, and knuckles are what caused them. They’re really fractures from childhood. They are more visible in certain light, but here is one on the left side of my skull.

I do not support just calling that wiki "wiki" without including a crucial part of it.

I can't figure out how it could possibly be drawing enough nutrients to live, and yet there it is. I'd have chopped it up and dragged it away but now I'm impressed and want to see how long it goes on.

Happen to see lots of 3's on my ODO. Sad I missed the 133,333 mark, but at least I caught it before four 3's went to three 3's.
