15+ Surprising Ways People's Lives Got Weird

You know those 'everything happens for a reason' type sentiments that try to explain away all the carrying events of our lives?

Yeah, I don't believe 'em. Some things happen just to happen, or if there is a reason, it's just to make our lives weird, like the events in these photos!

"Eiffel Tower in the middle of a parking lot."

Travel the world from the comfort of your own vehicle! Not quite the same scenery, but pretty close, no?

"Moments after arriving at the office, my shoes decided to take the day off."

Not just the day off, they're retiring! They bought a beach-side property and are moving tomorrow.

"This mark in the pavement looks like a giant's shoe print."

Whatever paving company has him as an employee is pretty lucky. Sure, he left a footprint, but moving literally anything is way easier with him around.

"The amount of hair my daughter had at 2 months old!"

Look at the way she's staring into the camera, she knows she looks great.

"My bic lighter stayed lit when I put it down."

Congratulations on your new pyromancy powers! I'd start learning how to control them as soon as possible, it's not safe to keep that lighter on.

"My backyard is being projected onto my wall."

Don't worry, you're just entering a dream sequence, close your eyes and you'll be awake again soon.

"I Have 6 Wisdom Teeth Due for Removal Tomorrow."

Now, I'm no dentist, but I'm pretty sure that's more than you're supposed to have.

"I ordered [a $40] usd RGB gaming mouse pad and got this."

It's not your mousepad, but it is still pretty great. I mean, it's Groot, how can you be mad?

"This friendly chipmunk ran inside the house to escape from our cat."

That chipmunk has never been so grateful to see a human.

"Stray hogs slowly displace stray cats in the city of Haifa."

As far as stray animals go, he has a pretty prime spot. A mattress all to himself? Score!

"Old workmate bought an airgun on [Wish] and this is what he got."

His first mistake was ever trusting a single thing seen on Wish. His first and only mistake, really.

"Saw a [Ghostbusters] hearse in my town."

No, you saw the Ghostbusters. There might be a haunting problem in your town, something weird in your neighborhood even.

"This black tomato."

"It's NOT a phase!" cried this tomato to the farmer who picked it.

"So, this is how driving lessons are going with my daughter tonight..."

Did she break it or did it just happen? Either way, you might want to take that as a sign.

"Random abandoned bus near my house on a foggy day. Eerie if you ask me."

Eerie if you ask me too, but it still looks pretty shiny and new to be truly abandoned. Give it some time.

"Teenagers floating away into Lake Michigan on iceberg that broke free [...]."

Suddenly very grateful for my sheltered teenagehood so I didn't go and end up doing something like this.

"My bank sent me 64 copies of the same debit card."

This is perfect in case one or 63 ever get lost!

"What now?"

This grants you a nega-wish, you'll now get the opposite of what you were originally going to wish for.

"IKEA display toilets have directions to the real toilets."

I shudder to think what must have happened at a number of Ikeas for them to need to do this.

"A bug crawled into my camera and died so now it shows up in every photo I take."
