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.

Having grown up Mormon; this was obvious. I could always feel my brain being choked off but would get in trouble if the tie looked loose.
Mormon, brain choked off, ๐ค
My parents almost joined a Hindu cult while I was a kid. Thank goodness they found it and the people annoying so we never attended again. I have distant relatives in that cult and they're crazy people. They swap wives and do drugs and then say we're not pious and god fearing enough.
Your parents took you to a swinger party?
Ugh not in the cult. I'm trying to point out how hypocritical they are
...how do I sign up?
