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.

This can't be a coincidence. Something has to be going on. Do you have a refrigerator in your attic that is that exact shape?

Is there even a shadow of a doubt?

I was thinking the same thing, but here's my guess:

-Cold, foggy night/morning = frost forming

-Cloudy until early-morning so the sun doesn't warm the shingles

-Clouds clear up a bit by mid-morning, and the sun rapidly warms up the shingles, leading to the frost evaporating quickly relative to the shadow's motion

That's what NASA wants you to believe, so you don't investigate the fridge they put in your attic where they store your precious bodily fluids.

But sure, water sticks to a spinning ball.

What the fuck, bro. You need to cease your investigations immediately. Do your own research people!

Tides goes in, tide goes out. Can’t explain that.

Fuckin’ magnets. How do they work?

When you get in the bath, the water sloshes back and forth. When you hit a tuning fork, it doesn't matter how, it vibrates at the same frequency. Put those two together and it's the same thing with the sea, only bigger and wetter. People are always chucking things in the sea, like new boats and stuff.

Maybe his neighbor is a climate controlling liberal?
