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.

You get that fish feel pain right? Would this still be considered funny if that was a domestic cat in excruciating pain and terrified?

Why are you upset at nature being brutal? Should we put the osprey on trial for crimes against fishdom?

It's not nature being "brutal" that's the issue (I wouldn't even call it brutal because nature is what it is regardless of how we feel about it) - the issue is humans mocking or taking delight in an animal's pain.

What's the point. The osprey are so well connected it's never even gonna go to trial - mark my words.
