There’s no shortage of detail-minded people in the world. I mean, I’m definitely not one of them, but I can certainly appreciate their handiwork.
Added details and hidden Easter eggs are some of the more satisfying things to spot in the wild.
RELATED STORIES
Family photo.
Here’s a fun little detail that those NASA types added to the latest Mars rover: a depiction of every Mars rover to date.
Is that true?
This was found at the bottom of a box of beer. Who knows, it might just get more people to recycle.
Who’s Craig?
I appreciate the user-friendly guide here, but it’s a little weird. How loud is ‘very loud classical music’? Who’s Craig? Who’s Troy?
Boat bridge.
It breaks my brain a little to look at this, but it makes perfect sense: a short tunnel so boats can pass over the roadway.
I get it.
This new Volkswagen has pause and play icons for the brakes and gas pedal. I’d think the brakes would have a stop button but I’m not a car designer.
Parent’s chair.
I’ve never seen a rocking chair so highly specialized, but it’s actually an awesome idea. Once your kids grow up, though, it’s kind of unnecessary.
What scar?
This guy needed bicep surgery but the surgeon took care to make the incision in an area where it would barely show.
Little Easter egg.
This electric Ford Mustang has a little surprise hiding under its hood: a message saying “electric ponies live here”. Kinda weird, but sure.
Dual purpose.
This hotel shower has an awesome feature that more showers need: a handy shelf that can be accessed from inside or outside the shower stall.
Mug’s message on point.
I appreciate the work to give this mug a functional handle again, and I really appreciate the on-point message printed on the mug.
Double layered.
This teacup has a hollow cavity between its two layers that keeps it from getting too hot to hold.
Is that how boats work?
Normally, you don’t want to see a boat that’s full of water. But in Florida, they play by different rules.
Vertical chess.
This isn’t 4D chess, but it’s something even rarer: vertical chess. I guess it’s an option for people who don’t have table space.
It just keeps going.
I don’t know what this pickup truck has been created from, but it actually looks well-designed…y’know, for a truck that’s about ten feet longer than it should be.
The past was weird.
This Lexus has a phone built right into the center console. Who’d have thought stuff like this would be obsolete almost immediately?
All in one.
These self-lighting candles from 1900 even include a little stand in the box to give the candles a place to sit.
Fair enough.
This bench in Manchester, England is reassuring. Don’t worry, guys — Motley isn’t dead. They’re just someone who can recognize a good bench when they see it.
Right in his spot.
This mural in Puerto Rico includes something important: the doggo who likes to chill there. You can see how well they captured it.
Nacho Libre?
This taco shop has a random Easter egg on one of its shelves: a candle featuring Jack Black as Nacho Libre?
Proof positive.
This cut of expensive wagyu steak comes with certification that it came from a cow, in the form of that cow’s nose print.
