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.

No one going to mention the Granny kinda casually lifting over 100kg?

I was thinking the same thing but the red plates read 2.5kg. not sure what the others are but I'm assuming 22kg in total? Still very amazing considering my mother, who is 20 years this woman's junior, couldn't do this.
