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.

Wow. How are Colbert and John Oliver not on that graphic? Meanwhile, I don't think I've ever watched more than three or four YouTube clips of Trevor Noah.

Oh god, am I old?

Also, it sucks that Brand's a right-winger. There was a time when I thought his heart was somewhat in the right place even if the execution was... questionable.

Yeah. Seriously questioning methodology here.

Of the blue bubbles that actually have text (which is already a lot less than that of the red ones), I think I've heard of two or three. I've heard of a lot more of the red ones, and I actively avoid right-wing social media.

I honestly had no idea Trevor Noah was still around.

Much like Matt Taibi, Brand got outted as a sex pest and then took a hard right turn.
