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.

cop is genuinely worried about the guy drowning... guy has warrants/is wanted and doesn't want the cop to see his face. otherwise known as a Guatemalan standoff.

Imagine pulling off this amazing prison break only to emerge from the muddy water looking straight into the eyes of the same cop who caught you during your last prison break.

Happened to a pawn in one of my Prison Architect games. Dude tunneled out of his cell right into the largest of my guard rec rooms.

I actually been in this situation fixing a 6 inch main. My boss had us fix all leaks live. He hated dealing with dirty water calls you get after shutting off the water.

I was never under water during a leak or something, but i think people underestimate how easy you can drown by just a shitton of water spraying in your face.

Legend says if your are the chosen one that he'll rise from the water and bless you with a holy pipe wrench.

I've really got to hand it to that guy. If I were in his shoes, your water is now pickup only, not delivery.
