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.

There's a part of me that kind of wishes my town had surveillance akin to China's that is effective in preventing this kind of petty crime. I'm jealous of how clean Chinese cities are comparatively.
There's also a part of me that is well aware I sometimes just run red lights on my scooter at 5AM when there are no cars around, or sometimes forget a doggie bag when I'm out walking the pups, and then I'm well aware it would be used against me too and no system is perfect.

And even if we rolled our own, some of those asshole in the neighborhood would be bitching about kids riding bikes on empty sidewalks.
