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.

Your-anus is posessive. You have an anus.

You're-anus = You are the anus. You are an asshole.

Hope this helps.

Wikipedia quotes BBC as saying /ˈjʊərənəs/ is closer to the Greek and preferred by astronomers, and /jʊˈreɪnəs/ is accepted by OED.

Unless this is just a butt joke, I didn't watch the video, that's cool too.
