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.

They've already decided those who disagree with them are below them. The people who use transit aren't people in their minds, not truly. Second class citizens at best, untermenschen at worst.

I've frequently broken peoples brains when they're arguing against transit and they use that. "Only poor people use transit". I ride transit, and I make a decent living in tech. They then either make a really lame attempt at a joke like "You must not be doing that well" then or stumble and mutter and change the subject. Can't have anything that challenges their worldview right?
