An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Most days I receive zero packages. Two is so extravagant as to almost not be dull.
Usually if I get a package it means I now have a chore to do.
Is your porch under water ?
Was this photo taken with night vision spy glasses or something?
I can’t take credit for it. It was the picture in the delivery notification email from UPS.
That's the type of camera people use to photograph bigfoot & UFOs.
What’s the thing made of what appears to be glass piping?
My wife is the self-designated glass recycler for our neighborhood. Everyone leaves their glass jars and bottles on our porch and periodically she drives them up to the collection bin.
Picture quality is low, but that’s three or four glass jars all next to each other.
Two packages. Lots of stuff on the porch. Look at that attractive doormat. Hardly dull at all
I’ve found that, with the proper attitude, almost anything can be dull.
Are they usually stolen within ~3 hours?
No, never.
Good. Glad to hear. I've never had one stolen, and hope I and everyone else don't.
