r/Mildlyinteresting | oh no 

Fun fact also Nintendo puts bitter coating onto the game cards for the switch, so children don’t try to eat them, apparently it lasts hours on your tongue so it’s not a good idea to lick it

7:07 That's the camera obscura effect, also known as a pinhole image. It's created when a dark room has a small hole allowing bright light in. In fact, the word 'camera' comes from shortening the term camera obscura, which means 'chamber of darkness' in Latin.

4:15 technically the tipper can be charged for distribution of counterfeit money, cause the tipper is leaving fake money to tip for services rendered.

Had a coworker get one of those chump 2024 bucks, she tore it in half and said "keep the change." I laughed my ass off, she was a supporter too. 🤣

5:49 the reason why Raspberry flavored stuff is normally blue is when the artificial flavor was created there was an issue with some of the red food dyes leading to health issues. So the companies decided to color the flavor blue to avoid the red dye scare.

Im 27 and still have baby teeth. my premolars never developed permanent teeth and thus never got pushed out. they're still in pretty good condition for teeth that werent really supposed to hold up this long. we cant really afford to do anything about it, so they get to hang on for dear life until they become a problem

Notice that at 6:54 the coipon says no expiration. GET THAT FREE MEAL GOOD SIR/MA'AM YOU DESERVE IT HAHAHAAAAAA

Bacon bits (that red crunch kind) are in most cases vegetarian. Loaded with protein too lol. I use em all the time. They are pretty much just smoke flavored soy crunchies. xD

Friendly reminder that Sun is an unit of measurement is cosmology

7:15 keyhole projection 😂 It's so beautiful 🥹 An itty bitty, teeny tiny hole between the room and the sun is the key to magic ✨💖✨

Friendly reminder NOT to tip fake money. Just don't. It's not only rude but also illegal.

9:41 as a person who collects dolls...yes, unfortunately. The 6 dollars is paltry compared to what some dolls can sell for nowadays. (If you want to have an aneurysm, look up either the Grady Twins or Pennywise Skullector dolls. Then remember that those ORIGINALLY sold for 75 and 60 dollars respectively at retail. And don't get me STARTED on Barbie. Some of her dolls can go for even more if the market is there.)

5:56 Welcome to the world of Blue Raspberry. It tastes like Blue. It may be called raspberry but it tastes like the color blue

Small gripe of mine. That bottle of Pepsi does NOT have 130% your daily value of sugar. It has 25%. Sugar is a carbohydrate. US law just demands they tell you how much sugar was added on top of any other naturally occurring carbohydrates in the food. The daily threshold for added sugars is much much lower than total carbs. Pepsi, being carbonated sugar water and water being something that does not naturally contain carbs, is nothing BUT added sugars. Edit: For example, take a fruit smoothy and a bottle of soda with the same 25% daily value of carbohydrates. The fruit smoothy has no added sugars because the fruit naturally have sugar in them. So it will have 0% added sugar while the soda is sugar water and thus has 130% your daily value of added sugar...even though they both have the same amount of sugar.

Blue raspberry flavor is actually flavored like black raspberries, which still aren’t actually blue or black, but they’re very dark purple. And also completely a different thing from blackberries. And 7:12 there is a cute old children’s book called The World Upside Down because two kids find a cave to hide out in which has this sort of phenomenon happening.

9:04 Under a section in the official tournament policy titled Hygiene, it is against tournament rules in Yu-Gi-Oh to "neglect to wash or put on clean clothes" as it "contributes to an unpleasant atmosphere". These rules can't be enforced at a local game store unless they are hosting a sanctioned tournament, but Konami's public stance on the issue could have inspired this store to actually offer deodorant for their male customers to use.

8:32 this is called Heartwood, it’s bitter and unpleasant to insects so it remains untouched

2:55 It's Mr Grizz! angry squid noises

7:02 IT SAYS NO EXPIRATION, IT'S STILL VIABLE!

I imagine foodture was meant to be food future, but my mind read it as food torture.

0:06 I've interlocked my hands for no reason before, never heard of or even succeeded at whatever this guy's doing. 0:16 I can't believe I'm looking at a very normal looking turtle immediately after sending someone a video on how to care for trimmings. 1:10 Glitch in the matrix 1:44 Now this is just weird, but hey? At least Jack's right about the vegetarian thing? 2:03 Interesting...

0:52 I can relate to this. I can't even use baby body wash. Scented anything tends to irritate my skin. So the majority of, hand soap, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, perfume, deodorant, lotion, some razors, makeup, toothpaste, mouthwash, floss, pads, tampons, and more. Life sucks. Lol

that fence 0:19 looks pretty old/rotten anyway. It was about time it got destroyed.

You'd be suprised what you can check out at a library, books aren't the only things people need to study.

2:17 my ex used to cut the faces off barbies to use them for masks for other barbies so not alone lol

I'm 33 and I still have a LOT of baby teeth! They're still strong, healthy and there's no adult teeth growing in behind them yet to cause issues.

8:18 That's a type of rosewood! The wood is very pricey depending on species and quality. It 'bleeds' red when cut, really pretty for furniture.

The library where I work also has art prints to check out! We hear that they're great if you're trying to sell your house. They make the place look nicer for prospective buyers.

2:39 Nintendo Switch games also have a coating that tastes really disgusting to prevent swallowing

The stupidest part of that fake tip is that someone thought that giving fake money would be a great way to convince them

10:45 took a moment to recongnize the tree, 'cause the way Jack said Jacarandá made me think of some exotic Australian tree.. lol

7:20 The paintings are most likely for artists who want to practice by making copies of them. You often see artists doing this at Art museums, this would give them the chance to practice from a real painting in their own homes.

0:57 Join to the club, we've got antihistamine and benadryl

4:36 it would be so easy to cut the fish fillet in half and stack them in the burger but you chose to leave it long af

I love how Aussies say "Far out!" When something is unbelievable.

0:52 holy shit

6:40 and if you imagine the taillights were eyes...

2:55 Mr. Grizz??? What are YOU doing here?

8:35 blood tree

2:50 Nintendo did this with Switch cartridges, to keep people from licking and accidentally swallowing them. It failed, because when people found out, they immediately began licking them, because human curiosity.

0:19 Forget TMNT, he came in like the Kool-Aid man " Oh yeah".

4:59 don't know where this is in particular but where I live in Northern Ireland we are close to a load of real traditional bars & pubs (none of the ones that advertise it they are often tourist traps & overpriced) I can name 2 off the top of my head the Salt water Brig, & a golf club outside of Cloughy. If anybody wants a good meal after heading to Irelands only Aquarium I think the Portaferry hotel does similar things as well as Captain Jacks in Portaferry as well. Basically so much food from just the starters that eating the whole main is impossible so you bring it home & eat it the next day.

This is the funniest, best Emkay video ever. Whatever it took for you to get into the mood to do this this way, always do that 😅😅😅

3:55 did not expect that

7:30 I imagine it would be very easy to forget you needed to return the painting to the library. 10:50 This is why I found tree law stories so interesting a few years ago. A stuck-up neighbor complaining about someones tree and deciding to remove it themself only to then be sued for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Depending on the tree, it doesn't take much to maintain them but the time it takes for them to grow to a decent size is a lot plus other factors makes grown tress very expensive.

0:58 Ok, Ive seen this across the internet for years now and I have to chime in Its the reaction of getting prickled/pierced by a needle, essentially the same as mosquito bites Real allergic reaction is itchiness. I know this because recently I found out another food that contained shrimps, and Im allergic to shrimps and prawns. My arms had some rashes and very itchy

9:20 Emkay strawberry! 👌🤘🤙👆👍✌️

0:50 Apparently there are several possible causes of this happening. I've known people this happened to, and the doctor told them that they had 1-2 allergies, but the body just over-reacts and attacks whole categories of things if they come in contact with their allergen. So, like, you're allergic to mold. But you're *soooooo* allergic to mold, that of you are near mold your body decides to attack everything you've ever touched, just to be safe. There are also certain autoimmune conditions that cause allergies to everything, and even some medications can supposedly cause reactions like this.

The paper towel without a hole isn't mildly interesting, but rather mildly satisfying

It does say "Blue" Raspberry with the sweets, haha! XD I'm also guessing the dolls are wrapped up to keep their hair and outfit neat, which I think is a fantastic idea!

7:03 does the no expiration mean you can still use it now? boy would that save a lot.

7:30 also for fancy parties and zoom backgrounds, and photo ops...

6:28 Heimdall OPEN THE BIFROST!!!

6:55 "No expiration"? Is that real?! Wow!

Hello, emkay! Just to let you know, one of my cats passed away recently and your videos helped. And something ironic is that i found a shiny delcatty (a gen 3 pokemon) which looks exactly like him! All i got to say, is thank you for that luck. I’ve been with you from the start, and you make my day!mind having lexi go onto r/balloonanimal ? I think she would adore all of it, and even possibly have a laugh or two like me as mentioned before! Sincerely:aj

i feel bad for the allergic to everything guy (i have allergies myself)

2:12 therapy is an option… *or* give them a camera and $10000 and they will make the greatest horror movie humanity has seen.

5:48 grape is goated. THE WATERMELON IS THE WORST!

Hmmmm this might be interesting, we shall see. Edit:it was indeed interesting

modern librarys nowadays rent out not just books but also videogames, newspapers and magazines, videoconsols ans houseutensils/gardenmachines (library of things) paintings (art-libraries) or seeds for the garden (seedlibraries). What you find depends on funding and interest of the librarians and the customers. Its really cool. Bigger librarys can also have makerspaces with pcs, musicequipment, coding-stations, little workshops for tinkering etc.. Go use your public Library, be nice, influence what they have to offer

7:02 wait is says “no expiration” which means you could get that food right now

2:40 they also have this on the metal parts of Switch cartridges, and it tastes oddly like earwax.

2:19 Oh no! Sid got to the Barbies😱😂

2:15 at least I know what to do with the box of barbie dolls I have in my room (never really played with them, because I only wanted them to fit in when I was still in daycare). Now, I'm in uni, but nearly all the small children in my family for the last 8 or so years have been boys (and girls didn't want over 10 year old barbies) so I don't have anyone to give them away to (asked local immigration centre and homeless centre and they told me that almost all people give them toys and hardly ever anything else; and we don't have something like a charity shops here)

3:57 DAYUM their yard must be **FERTILE**

4:12 Plot twist: it is actual new currency the government forgot to announce so very few ppl have it

0:15 No, I’ve tried that before. It hurts, but you could get used to it eventually

0:51 It's the body reacting to the "scratch" allergy test it's a form of "skin writing disease" iirc I have a form of this and it's very irritating, the body overreacts to the scratch itself and sometimes can scar

justice for grape flavored jolly ranchers, they're one of my favorites

The skin test show the possibility of allergy due to how the immune system reacts to said irritation

0:50 just had a skin test last week! 39 different allergens tested, only 3 I did not react to. entire back was red and bumpy even to the next day

Ok but for $15 for all those Barbies, it would be so satisfying to cleanse them all (both physically and spiritually) and work on returning them to good condition and/or customising them.

You definitely deserve more recognition for this!

those are typically called Artificial Bacon Bits for a reason. Theyre just supposed to be crunchy and taste like bacon while also being shelf stable

If a burger costs 25 at anything except a FANCY restaurant I am leaving because I speak only in broke

5:49 blue rasberries are an actual berry, its called a whitebark raspberry. Though its more of a dark purpleish blue.

The back, omg.........bros allergic to everything.

Bacon-flavored bits are indeed vegetarian. Which is why some people who otherwise won’t eat pork may consider them an exception.

I have always loved bitter things.. And that battery would definitely have been my favourite chewy death toy

7:11 I had this once too. This looks so cool.

That coupon specifically says that it doesn't expire, I would absolutely go and get my free burger.

I had 6 'baby-teeth' without any adult teeth underneath. Last one came out when I was 55! Now I don't have any teeth on the upper jaw...dentures instead of adult teeth. BTW: it's a trait in my family...all three of my brothers had the same 'arrangement'.

4:42 When I get a sandwich like that, the protruding parts get nommed first. 😉

8:28 how ba-a-a-ad can I be soundin ahh/j

Those crucified Barbies would have belonged to me back in 79!😂😂 I HATED Barbie and was always getting one for my birthday or holidays.😁😈

2:07 trust me, thats normal.

r/mildlyinteresting: oh no! Me: oh my!

My mom went into anaphylactic shock when she was scratch-tested for allergies, so I decided it was safer for me not to get tested.

In America we have a flavor called blue raspberry. it doesn't taste like any fruit. it just tastes like electric blue

Turtles and tortoises are slow moving tanks so naturally they bust through a fence like a swat team

the rasberry jolly ranchers are blue because back in the day there was a red food colouring and it turned out to be poisonous so the government just banned ALL RED FOOD DYE, so they made the rasberry blue :D

I did an allergy test for 23 substances a few years ago, on my arms. Just all kinds of pollen. ALL OF THEM WENT UP. The doctor's assistant (who must've had like 40 years experience) looked at my arms and went "huh....well that's a first"

I KNEW IT! BACON IS A SPICE!

those kind of batteries at 2:50 tasted abit citrusy or something close, it has this like tangy for a bit then citrusy then none.

Grape jolly ranchers are honestly so underrated/srs

at 6:30 ther refraction kinda looks like the prismatic ability from destiny 2 or the portal that the witness opened, in destiny 2

Im liking just for that last line about skin

"I don't know how I feel about encouraging people to be more relaxed and having 138% of their daily value from ONE DRINK!" Maybe just... don't down the whole damn bottle in one day ? Self-restrain and all that ? Also, no-sugar versions exist.

6:26, Didn't think that they would get mentioned here, but to be fair T.A.D.C. has as many views as a small country. Still waiting for Murder Drones Episode 8.

The upside down neighbors house is a case of camera obscura.
