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.

Mcdonald's is going away from self-refill. You can still refill it but an employee will do it.

Jokes on them - if they’re also pushing to reduce headcount by making people pay online, I’ll get it to go and I never buy drinks to go. There goes your biggest profit center

Interesting. Do you know why?

I remember decades ago the ads on TV when burger king added self service fountains. It was a BIG DEAL to have unlimited free refills.
