This Online Group Is Dedicated To “Mildly Interesting” Stuff, And Here Are Their 50 Best Posts (New Pics)
Interview
Can I get a drumroll, please? It’s time for (in my humble opinion) one of the best recurring features on Bored Panda—a round-up of the best latest photos from the ‘Mildly Interesting’ subreddit. A community with nearly 18.8 million members, r/mildlyinteresting is a haven for original photos of, well, mildly interesting stuff. We’ve been mildly impressed by how friendly and genuinely creative the community is time and time again. And we hope that you’ve been, too, dear Pandas.
Check out their latest top posts below and remember to upvote your fave ones as you’re scrolling down. Oh, and when you’re done, have a look through Bored Panda’s recent posts about the subreddit over here, right here, as well as here. It’s cool. It’s witty. And it’ll improve your week. Mildly.
Photographer Dominic Sberna from Ohio shared his perspective on taking quality pictures and composition with Bored Panda. You'll find his insights into the world of photography below. You'll also find our interview with Cowbeller1, one of the moderators curating the 'Mildly Interesting' subreddit, below.

grotesqueer 5 years ago
Yes! I remember the same with my first ever Tunisian crocheting work! It's strangely both motivating and unmotivating at the same time. While seeing my improvement motivates me, the realization that if I want the finished piece to look as good as I can make it I would have to start it over unmotivates me.

in the UK they have to destroy every empty vial to ensure that criminals don't sift through the medical waste and then refill them with whatever to sell on the black market. It's amazing how much thought has to go into the whole programme

What do you think ?

I agree. And so many different things, some nature, some made by humans. Some close-up detail, some from a distance. And those that are created on-purpose, they didn't always realise what effect it would have once finished.

Sometime in the 90s, I saw a movie marquee with three movies listed on it that could be read as a full sentence: Trainspotting: That Thing You Do To Jillian On Her 37th Birthday. Didn't get a photo, as it was before cell-phones with cameras built in, but it has always stuck with me.
