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.

I agree! Double disgust seems more like revolted or nauseated. Or maybe aversion?

Revulsion is probably what I'd go with. Change fear and disgust's combination to dread.

I'd also probably change the combination of disgust and sadness from self-loathing to either regret or pity since I don't think all applications of both sadness and disgust would be self-directed.
