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.

Though I'm not sure this holds true for dyslexics.

edit: Apparently it's more complicated than the example claims.

Damn I remember seeing this printed out when I was literally a child. Interesting to see this text come back in 2024.

Same lmao. Sent me back in time a little bit. I have a sudden urge to play Runescape.

Am dyslexic. Can read it just as well as any other text 😆

It certainly slows me down, maybe like 25-50%, somewhere around there. Not quite as bad as reading l33tsp34k, but still less than ideal.
