If you’re gonna survive in this world, you better have your wits about ya. A little bit of clever thinking can go a long way and, really, it seems more and more surprising to see anyone being genuinely clever these days. But I’m not talking Elon Musk levels of clever here, I’m just talkin’ about your everyday brilliance — the kind of people who made us laugh by doing something different!
So today, we’re taking a look at just that. These are the kinds of LOLs that can only come from those fleeting moments of brilliance that you just gotta respect!
1. Now, I’m not condoning cheating here…but if you’re gonna do it, ya gotta do it right.
Again, I’m not saying that anyone should try this…but don’t get caught! Protip: It’s probably best to take a picture after the test, if you have to take a picture.
2. You don’t have to be very old to outwit your elders.
Take this little girl, for example. Is it her fault that no one made the rules clear enough? This is definitely not cheating, it’s simply — and literally — thinking outside of the box!
3. Not gonna lie, this is one little lifehack that could actually be useful.
No one wants the stupid butt-piece of bread, anyway. Might as well use it as the sponge it was intended to be. Waste not, want not, ’cause no one wants that.
4. Well, be careful what you wish for, I guess.
If you’re gonna do joke gifts, you gotta be prepared to be outdone! And again, don’t underestimate any kids, they’re way more ahead of the game than you’d think.
5. Improvise. Adapt. Overcome!
When the pressure’s on, it’s always good to know you can rely on some friends to help you in a time of need. If this works, he’ll buy a real jacket, I’m sure.
6. Also good to know that your siblings will have your back…and your head?
Basically, if they’re willing to make a decoy version of you, they’re gonna be your BFF, always.
7. This dentist put a Where’s Waldo (or Wally, if you’re outside of North America) on his ceiling — brilliant!
I don’t know if I’d even be able to leave before finding that guy.
8. “Ah, yes — I’m detecting notes of…music.”
“This chardonnay literally sings to me” — like, these are things I could actually picture wine snobs saying! So just flip it on ’em. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
9. There’s no point in getting mad, there’s bonus points for being creative!
They named this piece “Interrupted House (2017)” which just adds to the classiness of their home, in my opinion.
10. I couldn’t even figure out some of the basic functions on those things, let alone making art!
Whether it’s drawing on a wall or drawing on a calculator, the medium matters.
11. This is the kind of badassery that I aspire to.
Honestly, I can’t come up with a cooler thing to have tattooed than this. He definitely has a leg up in the game.
12. Alright, whoever figured out the tune to this advertisement is honestly nothing short of genius.
♫ ‘Cause maybeee, the fries are gonna come with gravyyy. And falafeeel, is a chickpea baaaall.
13. Take that, robots! Now humans are stealing your jobs!
But hey, when the machine’s broken, what else are you supposed to do? Props to this guy for working through it.
14. You never know how or when inspiration is gonna hit.
And sometimes, you can really surprise yourself with what you come up with. They may have been drunk, but I’ll probably use this hack at some point.
15. Ever have problems with people taking your food? Well, not with one of these babies!
Unless they’re really desperate and gross, this should keep those scavengers in the office at bay!
16. The job was done before they even knew it was being made!
And really, this poster is so great. It’s got all the info on there and it’s totally unique. 10/10!
