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.

Kinda cool but nobody plays softball in the dark

I was freaking psyched when I got a glow in the dark football that actually worked! Does not improve depth perception in the dark. There were a few black eyes before we tossed it in the garage.

We had no problems with catching glow in the dark footballs as a kid, well minus me I had lineman hands.

No problems? I had glue hands. Not dick hands. We called them dick hands because football season was fucking cold and every second on the sidelines your hands were in your pants. If you couldn't catch something.... well... dickhands. I haven't drooped anything but weight in most of my life. I don't think the physics of depth perception has changed much.
