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

"Meat candy" does not sound very enticing, at least not to me.

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.

Edit: Article with some background and history on her + a better and longer YT vid (hilariously titled “The Weaker Sex”)

Hadn't seen this before - I wonder if that was once on the potato outside and then grew closed?

  1. PCMag - I used to physically walk into a store and buy that magazine to read about computers…before the internet was so clean and fast it made for a better news and media experience. I’m pretty sure PCMag has been around since they included AOL cds with an isssue.

  2. Woot! Lol…why? Woot was always stupid. The deals were never good. There is no need for it.

Both of these give me a lot of nostalgia for the early 2000’s. Playing games on Yahoo messenger. GameCube, PS2, OG Xbox.

Shocked they still exist, let alone have the funds to be running Facebook ads.

I was thinking of how people on the old internet would just create and share stuff for the simple sake of doing it, without trying to grind the algorithm. This woman in the mid 00's would bike through Chernoby, taking pictures and checking rad levels along the way.

Her anglefire page is defunk, but she has a youtube page now.

And for an added level of interesting, here's the slashdot page where I originally found it.

A family member found it while cleaning and didn't want it, gladly took it. eBay and etsy listings say it's from 1989, and I saw this listing for an unopened one where it turned brown like nutella (more interesting than this one) https://www.ebay.ca/itm/334507017510
