Mildly Interesting

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.

Aren't signs like these out up by a private entity, like an HOA? I think the law is that a public and legally enforceable sign is all caps and these are legally distinct enough that they can't be confused for public signs (hence the lack of capitalization) but still communicate the intent.

These signs are also unenforceable so you're free to disrespect them if that's how you feel.

Iirc they're still treated as stop signs by insurance companies in the event of an accident
