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.

Probably intended as "[Did you remember to] turn mirrors in ???"
I'm more interested in why people shouldn't wash dueling rear wheels and oversized ones. Maybe they're like cats and spraying them with water will stop all the fighting.

Thanks! Credit to World of Warcraft for my sensitivity to those kinds of typos; all those duel wielding rouges looking for Mankirk's wife and whatnot.

They probably don't fit on the car wash tracks.

I'm not a car person but I'm assuming they meant to prohibit dual (as in 'double') rear wheels as I don't think there's a configuration that would warrant using duel (as in 'fight').

I imagine them being forced to constantly run so close to each other can lead to a build up of frustrations that could eventually culminate in a duel. I'm not sure why the carwash would discourage people from breaking up a good wheel-fight, though.
