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.

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Harmless in the sense that they aren't dangerous, but they are capable of biting. Source: one was in my headphones a few years back and was biting my ear. I initially thought my headphones were just really itchy.

In my headphones!
