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.

It's just "second to none" but written more verbosely

Wouldn't it be "second to one"?

There's a sentence in Cantonese "我認第二冇人敢認第一", which means "if I declare second, no one will declare first".

I wasn't super sure if they meant that because Simplified Chinese is not likely to be Cantonese but Mandarin.
