Those who can rely on their wits are in luck because they always seem to have an option or two when the chips are down.
And it’s good for the rest of us that these folks had their wits about them and shared some of their better ideas with us. Check out this delightful goodness!

Piping hot brilliance.
There are two kinds of people: those who can’t stand spicy food, and those who can’t get enough of it.
We know exactly where the person who attached a spray bottle nozzle to their sriracha stands. And where anybody else should stand, for that matter.
That’ll last.
Some people out there will mock the need for cupholders in cars but they’re clearly a dealbreaker for a lot of drivers.
Well, at least this driver. If you’re going to put a cinder block in your ride as a cupholder, yeah, you need that thing.
You know where this is going.
The scissors served with the French soup at this restaurant are actually doing double-duty. They both allow you to get into the soup and provide you an opportunity to tell your date that you’ve cut the cheese. Perfect.
One-stop shopping.
I’d like to nominate whoever put this display together for a raise. I know it’s simple but putting the watermelon next to the watermelon cakes isn’t as obvious as it seems, but it’s ideal.
That’s one way of putting it.
This cafe in Malaysia has an interesting way of referring to water: “Sky Juice.” Sure brings up an image, doesn’t it?
It’s appropriate but at the same time, you kind of hope it’s not actual rain that they’re serving.
Out, out damn spot!
Spotted on an English Lit class door in Scotland, what could be more appropriate than a Shakespeare reference for a hand washing reminder? And they don’t even have to say the name of the cursed play.
Yeah, that seems important.
We can all use a reminder when we’re learning something new and this motorcyclist has a pretty good system. Maybe just don’t mention that the tortoise won the race against the hare.
Old school GPS.
Before there was GPS in your car or even on your phone, there were paper maps. But they weren’t terribly convenient for someone driving alone.
Back in the day, these rolling wrist maps were an option, and they’re pretty much the predecessor of today’s navigation apps.
Ooh, fancy!
As the uploader likes to call it, this is their “$500 laptop stand.” Of course, that’s probably what they spent, not what those textbooks are worth now.
Textbook buy-back day is not the joy it sounds like. They’re about the only things that depreciate faster than cars.
Well done.
Somebody should go over that in red ink just for the sake of authenticity though, don’t you think? But still, it’s worthy of a slow clap.
Excuse me?
I mean, I guess that would do the job, sure. But isn’t it better to just eat the raspberries? You know, right away? And not end up with weird globs of hot glue in your berries?
I know where he can start selling these.
I do admire the creativity of the various modding communities and you have to admit, you never saw this coming.
Who turns a watermelon into a handheld gaming system? I have to think it’s someone who wants some attention on the train because that’s what they’re going to get.
Go big so you can go home?
Man, if this guy is trying to say sorry in the grandest way possible, I think there are a lot of people out there who can relate. There never seem to be enough gigantic roses around when you need them, do there?
If it can still write, it’s good enough.
There are plenty of examples out there of people going to great lengths to reduce, reuse, and recycle things to prevent excess waste.
But is sharpening both ends of a pencil down to the very nub taking it to extremes? Someone sure doesn’t think so.
Does it go to 11?
This kitty sure looks cozy in the record player/radio its owners turned into a bed. And considering how many cats would be happy enough with a cardboard box, this cat might be a tad spoiled.
Not more than mine, but still.
If you can’t beat them…
It has to be weird to find yourself or your brand swept up into internet meme lore, as Pepperidge Farms has been thanks to an episode of Family Guy . Guess they’ve decided to steer into it!
“My secret stash of toilet paper in case no-one replaces rolls.”
Desperate times call for desperate measures, I suppose. But I’d almost guarantee this person was a Boy Scout. Always be prepared, they say, and this person sure is!
That spells it out nicely.
The last thing anyone wants to do is mistake an unlocked porta-potty door for a locked porta-potty door. That is not a spectator sport. So, thanks to the heads up, kind labeler!
She’s going places.
“Last year my 3 yo daughter convinced her camp counselors that it was her birthday,” the uploader of this pic wrote. “She got cake, they sang to her and treated her like a princess all day. Her birthday was 4 months away. We only found out about it when we found this photo in her backpack weeks later.”
A master-class performance.
Wow. Just, wow.
I have never done anything this perfectly in my life. Clearly, whoever packed up this moving van has played more Tetris in their life than I have, and that’s saying something.
Stand aside and recognize that accomplishment.
