This Online Group Is Dedicated To ‘Mildly Interesting’ Stuff, And Here Are Their 50 Best Posts (New Pics)
InterviewI’ll be completely upfront with you Pandas—one of my favorite parts about living on Planet Earth and being a human being (instead of, for example, a chill banana tree or a rat who can cook French cuisine) is the vast amount of new, creative, and interesting things I get to learn about each and every day. Life’s full of magic, even if it’s not as flashy and obvious as in the Harry Potter books and movies. And one of the cozy nooks on the internet that shows us just how neat the world can be is the ‘Mildly Interesting’ subreddit.
Rapidly closing in on the 19-million-member mark like a marathon runner in sight of the finish line, r/MildlyInteresting is a completely community-driven online group where people post photos of the things that interest them. Mildly, of course. And despite the name of the group, plenty of these photos are actually vastly and deeply interesting.
Redditor RedSquaree, who has been moderating submissions for r/mildlyinteresting for almost a decade now, went into detail with Bored Panda about how the type of content posted changes with the seasons and how much the subreddit has influenced people in real life. You'll find what they have to say below, so be sure to read on, dear Pandas.
While you’re checking out some of r/mildlyinteresting’s newest photos and upvoting the ones that made you smile, I’ll just quickly remind you that we’ve got some more of their amazing pics in Bored Panda’s earlier articles about the community here, here, and here. Happy scrolling!

I Like To Make Little Drawings Of People That I See
I have the same fountain pen. But mine is black! Good thing for writing and drawing!!!
I'm guessing, but is it a Lamy brand pen? Sakura are also very good. *Other brands are available.

This Crack In The Pavement Filled With A Stained Glass Cat Portrait
Mosaic, I think. Not stained glass. A ceramic mosaic would be a lot more durable and make more sense. It looks nice though!
I could be wrong. It totally could be glass. I just don't understand why someone would put forth the effort of stained glass if light can't get through it. Am I missing something?
Load More Replies...Retired Art teacher here. It is a ceramic tile mosaic. A stain glass piece would get broken very quickly and the pieces would be transparent. These are opaque. Both are created with special nip tools to break the glass or tile into smaller geometric pieces. Or you can put a whole tile in a towel and wack it with a hammer. Same basic technique for glass or tile. But the difference is that thin set mortar goes underneath and then grout between the pieces once they are in place. If you put ceramic tile mosaic art in a search engine then click images and you will see a lot of great designs. If you put in ceramic tile mosaic instructions you can pull up how to make them. I'm sure YouTube has tutorials.
I'm retiring soon and would like to try this!! Thanks for the tips!

These Chairs Made From Old Fire Hoses, In Front Of A Fire Station
"Yes, the seasons affect the type of content we get," moderator RedSquaree told me when I enquired about this.
"This leads to content which is extremely common, particularly during the winter. Take frost on cars, for example. We get this kind of photo daily during winter months, and often we mark with an 'Overdone' flair because the people who hang about /r/mildlyinteresting will see these time and time again (whereas more casual readers probably still enjoy seeing them). Another common one is the pattern of ice or frost on the wheel, seen here," the mod gave Bored Panda a couple of examples of how the particular season, in this case, winter, affects what redditors are more likely to post.
Of course, holidays like Christmas, Easter, and Thanksgiving also influence what people tend to focus on. "We see posts about eggs, gifts, people receiving the same card from multiple people... and I'd bet, in the latter example, at least one person has lied about this and purchased two cards of the same type and posted a photo just for karma! Stranger things have happened," RedSquaree said.
My Rhododendron Looks Like It's Trying To Run Off
I have never seen a rhodi with bare stems, they all are covered in flowers and leaves down to the ground in the UK, why are they different in the USA?
Many Vegetables In The U.k. Have The Name Of The Farmer Who Grew Them On The Packaging
Everyone should do this. It gives credit to the people who deserve it.
Honestly, we would give more credit if we paid more for our food.
Load More Replies...Go on, Ted, say it to him. I bet no-one EVER says it to him!
Load More Replies...Still don't pay our UK farmers enough however - the supermarkets are terrible at putting pressure on farmers to accept less and less. They have unrealistic expectations of the perfect veg, meaning a lot of veg is wasted for not meeting these standards and they often cancel contracts with farmers without any explanation, knowing the farmers cannot afford the legal team to fight it.
On the other hand, no such thing as a poor farmer. Source, working on construction projects on farms all over UK
Load More Replies...All major UK supermarkets show where it's produced fruit/veg/meat/fish. Beef has the number of the individual cattle on it ( I think- don't quote me on that). Reassuring the consumer - doesn't mean the producer gets a great deal. Even milk tells you where's it's from. Being from the UK. I like this but I also support farmers best I can.
We need this on everything! Except the name of the animal on meat. That's creepy
Saw This Logo For A Pet Grooming Service On My Drive Home
I once saw one for a landscaping business called Lawn and Order and I cracked up.
The moderator shared that one thing that they find interesting is that some people actually think about the subreddit when they spot something interesting and go to take out their phones to take a photo. That just goes to show how much influence the 'Mildly Interesting' community has on the collective psyche.
"Being an original content-only subreddit—and quite a niche one at that—causes those chain of events which I find fascinating. If our (not-so, these days) wee subreddit changes someone's behavior in real life—to find something nice where others might let it pass them by without a second thought—that's a great thing. Maybe the sub does inspire some people to appreciate the smaller things in life."

Why would one correct grammar in comments like these. Good griefness. Bet you need those gloves for that job with a 🌵.
According to the moderator, if we want to keep our sense of curiosity burning bright as we grow older, we ought to expose ourselves "to more novelty and ambiguity" in our day-to-day lives. Seeing or experiencing something fresh and unexpected brings you out of your routine and provides you with a different perspective in life. Hopefully, one that inspires you to dig deeper and learn something new.
"Much of our content is novel and/or ambiguous. Go about your day tomorrow and think, 'If I were to submit a photograph to /r/mildlyinteresting, what would it be?' Be on the lookout for things that are just novel and ambiguous enough to arouse only mild interest. Snap."
Coffee Stain That Looks Like Earth
OMG Its coffee arttttt. Surely coffee artists exist, right?!
yes they do... a lot of people paint with coffee :) i personally used coffee as a watercolour base for one of my cats' portraits
Load More Replies...maybe a parallel Earth. If you're basing this on what's supposed to resemble Africa, because that's the only thing to go on here, then nope... Africa does not look like that, even remotely.
Is it a moon or is it (cue theramin music) a UFO?

A Vibrant And Clear Spectrum Of Colors Refracting Through My Apparently Prismatic Window Onto My Arm
It's actually so vivid that I suspect the photo is more than a little enhanced.
Load More Replies...The colors are so bright I even see a reflection when I look away. WTH
For our last article about the ‘Mildly Interesting’ community’s enrapturing photos about life from different perspectives, I had a chat with redditor Cowbeller1, one of the group’s moderators, helping maintain the standards and the quality of the content. Luck, according to the moderator, is an important part of getting attention online.
My Girlfriend Bought Some Particular Measuring Spoons
I have a set of these, that were given to me as part of a wedding present. I’ve actually had several occasions to use them.
Whenever I ask my dad for any measurements he always says oh it’s about an inch of a bulls foot lol for everything lol what does that even mean lol
It's generally regarded that the proper length of the hoof on cattle should be 3" (from the hairline to the tip of the hoof), so if you divided 3" by 12, you'd get 1/4". So an "inch of a bulls foot" would be .25"
Load More Replies...There Is A Free “Period Pack” At My School For Girls Who Are Unprepared For Their Periods
I think every school should have this, especially for girls who don't know or are shy.
Every school needs this. My daughter is very irregular and she forgot to re do her stash in her backpack and started and the school refused to give her a tampon. The did not like me by the end of the day. The told her and me, they're for emergencies only... I was like wtf do you call this Karen?
Isn't that the exact emergency they have them for??
Load More Replies...We need this in all bathrooms. Definitely would have saved me from stealing a box of tampons when I was 15 or 16.
This should be implemented everywhere not just schools, we are caught unawares so often 😔
this should be everywhere, would have saved me from embarrassment when i got my first period in school 22 years ago
I totally didn't screen shot this to try and convince my school to get these
This "thing" which happens to half the world, this "event" that occurs for every female and why is this recognition just happening??? God we are such duds........yell it from the rooftop, scribble it on every bathroom wall, and maybe someday it won't be an "event" but so darned normal that every male will know what it's about and we won't be traumatized by it's occurrence!!
Share The Dignity is a wonderful charity. They also provide period packs to homeless shelters and hand them out in known homeless congregation areas. Not only does this help to ensure as few women as possible are left without menstruation products, but it also means those women aren't risking criminal charges and the humiliation of arrest due to the need to steal these items from supermarkets and convenience stores.
This Shopping Cart Has A Magnifying Glass Attached To It
Rossmann is a German drug store chain, so this cart is designed for old people needing health stuff. But other stores have these too, but not that big... 😂
I don't think it's just for old people. People every age can have bad eyesight.
Load More Replies...Need these in the UK, I'm always forgetting to take my glasses. I'm the bloke holding stuff a few inches from my face, then ½ metre, then a metre, then right back to my face.
Same, I swear the manufacturers go out of their way to make the text as small as possible.
Load More Replies...When the carts are left outside in the summer I wonder if the magnifying glass starts fires or burns ants in the parking lot?
Now that sure could be a handy tool to have when trying to read those microscopic labels!!
This is brilliant. It's not just my age. Even younger folks are complaining that the print is getting smaller and smaller. As long as they have it printed on the container, whatever that may be, I dont think there is a policy that says you have to be able to read it. Any company that does this says to me they don't really want you to know.
The moderator divulged that we can’t always predict what posts will become very popular on the subreddit. “A lot of it has to do with luck. Maybe you come across something interesting in your day-to-day life and remember to take a picture, maybe you're just lucky enough that something is interesting to the community. No real rhyme or reason aside from that," the moderator said that it’s not an exact science.
Which, in a way, is actually inspirational and chill: that means that you can focus on sharing pictures of what you love and what you find interesting instead of vying for karma on Reddit.
This LEGO Set Has Loose Change In The Couch
These details nowadays ...! My mom had one of the first Lego sets (she was born in 1959) there were only red and white bricks, later very primitive windows were added to her Legos.
LEGO bricks were first introduced in 1949, then also with windows and doors, they were named LEGO System in 1955 and the tube feature was patented in 1958. The same year sloped bricks were introduced. Right from the start, though, LEGO bricks came in white, red, yellow, grey, blue and green.
Load More Replies...I remember the red and white bricks and where I live they weren't hard plastic. They were rubber.

It's nice that that's true, but it's a shame this is a noticable fact.
Load More Replies...should just make clear ones and be done with it. It's not like any of those different skin tones actually match any real skin color
I think most of us know the answer to that...Sadly...
Load More Replies...Even transparent ones have a little pad in the middle with a colour, most often of a beige tone.
Load More Replies...Why do plasters/band aids need to match skin tone anyway? Ive seen blue ones, and cartoon decorated ones.
Those are usually for kids. But I'd wear them.
Load More Replies...Calf In The Checkout Line
The subreddit’s moderators value stability and original content above all else. “We will just continue doing the same thing. We've found that being boringly consistent is the best way to remain fair to the community. There haven't been any major changes in a while," moderator Cowbeller1 told Bored Panda earlier.
My City Has Public Defibrillation Stations And The Sign For It Looks Like A Video Game Health Bar
One should always keep in mind that defibrillators are meant for treating a disrupted heart rhythm - their main purpose is not making stopped hearts start beating again (as often portrayed in movies and TV shows).
Hmm, it the heart has stopped, I'd say it's disruptive.
Load More Replies...Probably not in the US, or anywhere with a huge crime rate.
Load More Replies...That's pretty cool but I can see some dumb ass kids or meth heads trying to play with it
They'd get bored pretty quickly cos you can't really play with them. Plus I imagine the system is set up to ring the authorities once the box is opened.
Load More Replies...I bet you'll get a happy feeling seing the heart even if you don't need the defibrillation
Septic Truck I Got Stuck Behind The Other Day
You must live near me, because I've also seen that truck. Either that or more than one company uses that phrase.

*whew- I thought i was the only one not getting it. And I thought they were wasps, not bees.

His paintings were featured in the movie "Amelie" which is where I first saw them. I have a large print on canvas of his "Girl with Bear" above the cabinet where I store my bear collection, and I use his "Herbert" (a woman holding a dachshund) as my avatar on a few sites.

Yes they do, every time. Also with my Covid vaccination. But I think my vaxx was faulty because even after two weeks I don't get 5G signal. Do I get it after the second shot? And magnets are still repelling me, I believe my microchip is installed upside down. I hope my government will answer these questions, I mean they have been reading my mind already for two weeks. Ok, I"ll stop now.
The person who gave you the shot wasn't very well educated. One should never penetrate the skin wehere there is a tat, you can easily get an infection due to pigments being pushed into the flesh by the needle. But the tattoo is very nice and the "eyepatch" lifts it.

These Two UK Phone Booths Have Been Repurposed
Most of the red phone boxes in the UK have already been repurposed, from everything to mini library's to restaurants. The remaining one are available to purchase and are half price if you take them away.
Most the ones around me have been repurposed to house defibrillators, although I saw one a couple of days ago which was a tourist information booth with leaflets and a map on the wall inside.
There is one near me which is a little library and I have seen a coffee shop in one as well
I think they should be different colors to aliviate confusion from a distance. Red for heart defib, green for cash, etc... Would be a shame if someone ran down a block or two for a defib., and found an atm, or something.
Dobby’s Fan-Made Grave In The Precise Location Of The Film!
in 10,000 years there will be an archelogical excavation here and they will conclude that there was a might king named dobby who people worshipped and revered at this shrine.
Had to call my niece for this one. She’s highly offended that her beloved uncle did not know what a doby was.
"Rip Dobby - covid would have done ya if not 2021" under wooden plank with "RIP Dobby the Free Elf".
In the movie, Dobby rescued Harry, Ron, Hermione, Luna, and Griphook from being tortured and killed by the Death Eaters, but was struck by a knife thrown by Beatrix LeStrange as they disappeared. They ported onto that beach, where Dobby, a Free Elf, died in Harry Potters arms. Dobby is one of the most important characters in the Harry Potter movies.

This Is Me Wearing My Great Grandmothers Traditional Finnish Dress From 1936
Very well protected and looked after. This is a wonderful heirloom.
There are dozens of different ones. Each village seems to have had their own variation. I believe this is Kaukola dress. Lovely! My grandma is 98 and she has traditional dress from her home village which is now part of Russia. 3 of my grandparents had to leave their homes behind during the war.
On the other hand, even though i do have some of my great-grandpa's clothes from the 1900s, there's no way I would ever fit into them because he was 1.55m tall, while I'm 1.80... That's what better nutrition does to people.

I Ordered A 119 Year-Old Book Online And Quite A Few Pages Are Uncut- Meaning No One Ever Read It
Been there! Love it, you feel so special reading such an old book for the first time
All those words sitting patiently on those pages, through global conflicts, watching Kings, Queens, Presidents, Dictators and Despots rise and fall, as man travelled off this planet and saw the furthest corners of the universe, and then created technology to bring a universe worth of knowledge into the palm of every person. Sitting patiently on those pages waiting for the day when someone would open the cover and absorb those words into their minds, their job simultaneously completed and only having just begun.
I feel happy for this book, it must be relieved to finally get read.
I have a book of a Shakespeare like this. Half the pages have been cut but look like grandma never got thru the book

My Son Was Born With A Black Spot Of Hair In His Blonde Hair. It Grows In Black, And There Is No Birth Mark Or Discoloration Under It
My hair is black, but I remember I used to have one peculiar red hair years ago. But it seems to be gone now.
I'm blonde, but I've always had a few completely black hairs mixed in - like 10 or 20 of them
Load More Replies...Looks cool! My husband has dark brown hair with a blond patch in pretty much the same spot like this boy. He started out as a blond kid and not all of his hair grew dark (some of his hair refused to grow up apparently 😜). A black haired coworker had a naturally white streak of hair starting in her eyebrow and continuing in her hair, that looked absolutely amazing.
My friend has the exact opposite - his hair is brown apart from one blonde patch, yes at the back of his head (left hand side). His patch isn't as big though.
My cousin has that exact thing. It appeared after he had his appendix removed, unsure if it related

Why would the Tahoe beaches have magnetic or iron-filled sand? The sand on the beaches seems to be broken-up granite, all of the surrounding mountains are made of the same pale gray granite rock! Where would iron come from?
Granite is often made up of a ton of different quartzes, ores, and minerals (hence its speckled look) so the granite in those mountains might contain iron ore in them.

It's a greek cola product with stevia. You can find it in Greece, Spain, Germany, Cyprus, Baltic countries, Middle East, Romania Slovenia and other countries, so this could be anywhere.
Load More Replies...Reminds me of a time when a friend of mine got all excited when I went to visit. "Look what I got Julie for her birthday party tonight, a huge bottle of champagne" as he went over to the freezer. I was just about to say "Please don't tell me you put it in the freezer" when he opened the door to see lots of broken glass and a pattern of white frothy ice like above. Expensive mistake.
Probably intended to just quickly get it cold and forgot about it. I've done this an embarrassing number of times
Stevia used as a sweetener in "green" cola is a Keto friendly substitute for sugar or aspartame.

"Not Oj" License Plate
OJ Simpson, a famous ex-football player, went on a lengthy car chase before he was arrested for the murder of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. He was in a white Bronco, hence the license plate. The glove not fitting was a stunt the defense attorneys pulled in court to prove the leather gloves found at the scene didnt belong to OJ because they didnt fit him. They went so far as to have him try to put them on in court to demonstrate that. Hence the famous statement by one of his lawyers, Johnnie Cochran " If it doesn't fit you must aquit."

This is the LAST box you seal (and should go in YOUR car, not the moving truck), and the FIRST box you open. Moving is stressful and always takes longer than you think, but this box should contain the essentials to make things a bit smoother. Oh, and if you're familiar enough with the area, a takeaway menu - you'll not want to cook on your first night, even if you CAN find a saucepan!
You are my kind of person. ;P A failure to plan is a plan for failure.

Well, they're bricks. They keep for quite a while. I mean, just look at the Ishtar Gate from Babylon. Built roundabout the 7 century BC, it still looks seriously good. Of course, it's now in Berlin, because, you know, early 20th century archeologists had the tendency to just bring stuff home...
Load More Replies...It's a technique called diapering. Became very popular in the 16th and 17th centuries. When bricks are fired they are stacked in rows with the end of each row facing a central fire tunnel. So the sides of most bricks are fired fully and remain red, but the ends of the bricks which come into direct contact with air are oxidised and blackened. Bricklayers realised they could use this effect to make patterns in walls. You see all sorts of zigzags and chequerboards on old buildings in the UK.

A Satanic Temple Adopted A Street In My City
Yeah, the Satanists do a lot of stuff like that. And for those who don't know, mostly their doctrine is atheistic (not Atheistic, there's a difference) but focused more on the fact that the majority of Christian sects are hypocritical and repressive. They seek to do the opposite, not literally worshipping Satan.
Can you please explain what you understand to be the difference between atheism and Atheism?

Load More Replies...The Satanic Temple is an organization that mostly exists as a counter to overly-Christian public policies. They step in when people attempt to involve religion in public funds. For instance, if a church petitioned to place a religious statue in a public park, the Satanic Temple would file an identical petition to place a statue of Baphomet. Likewise, when churches find a way to distribute materials to public schools, they do the same. They have after-school clubs and do charity work. They don't actually worship the devil. https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/after-school-satan

A bit of an overreaction from Reddit there. He's got none of the identifiers for Marfan, he's too short, he's not abnormally skinny and his fingers aren't overly long. All he has are disproportionately long arms which aren't as uncommon as you may think seeing as Alexandra and I here in a comments both have it too.
Load More Replies...I have the exact same measurements! Your arm span is meant to be your height, so it's very unusual to be so much longer!
Somewhat related, plasterers also all get a 'wingspan' significantly larger than their height; the rest of us fit the 'Vitruvian Man' proportions. Maybe he can enlarge his by becoming a plasterer --- he'd be a super(stucco)spreader.

My mom invented a game to play with a bag of M&Ms. You take out 5 and place in your palm, you pull out another and if the color matches any in your palm, you eat the pair. If it doesn't match it's added to the ones in your palm. Keep going until the bag is gone. You only win if you finish the bag and ones in your palm at the same time. You lose if you run out of M&Ms in the bag before pairing off all of the ones in your palm or if you pair off all the ones in your palm before the bag is done.
I don't like the taste of the blue ones. (Yeah, my children say they all taste the same.) I miss the milk chocolate color.
Would have been a lot easier on the guy who had to take out all the green ones.
