Mildly interesting images, especially popular on Reddit, are more than just a little thought-provoking, despite their name. While you may scroll through these mindlessly, you also might view them with a slight sort of amazement. And either way is perfectly okay, because these images may not shatter your worldview, but they'll definitely make life seem a little more interesting than it was before, and some things you may not look at the same way as before.

From cool manufacturing errors to unusual weather events, there's a lot of unexpected weirdness out there. We can't predict where it'll occur, but we can be thankful for the Redditors who managed to capture a moment of weirdness happening in the wild and share these with the rest of us. Now, we all can be mildly interested together, and maybe we'll even learn a thing or two if we're lucky. These are some of our favorite mildly interesting images from recent days to earn your interest.
