15+ Times That Real Life Had Its Own Special 'Easter Eggs'

While I suppose it was nice to hear about the unidentified woman try to help the man as he tripped over, it's definitely a surreal experience to read an official-looking plaque that expresses disbelief that you're bothering to give it your attention.

And indeed, the messages those symbols convey turn out to be pretty important. For example, that third one means you're not supposed to tumble dry it.

Personally, if I have to get a clothesline for just one article of clothing, I don't care how good it would look on me. It's staying on the rack.

However, if the route you're planning takes you near Mount St. Helens, you'll notice that it looks a little different on the map than the other mountains in the area.

I guess when a volcano is pretty famous for the way it blew its top, it seems like a missed opportunity not to do something like this.

It's a little hard to tell what it's supposed to be at the wrong time of day but somebody obviously thought the top of this fence looked a lot like a roller coaster track.

As one EMS worker pointed out in the comments, it's apparently not hard to underestimate just how tall an ambulance is.

I guess that's something they have in common with 18-wheelers.

It may not take long to notice that somebody painted a curb to look like slums, but that doesn't make the job they did any less detailed or impressive.

At the same time, since its only purpose is to signify the pond in the first place, I guess there won't be much reason to read it if that does happen.

Apparently, the staff here are about to get some new counter tops installed so the uploader left a little surprise for whoever ends up having to replace them somewhere down the line.

That's some long-term thinking there.

Presumably, they put it there because they like how fierce and unafraid the honey badger is to completely throw caution to the wind.

Because if there's another reason, I don't know it.

I think it's a pretty safe bet that somebody forced the hands of the staff at this IKEA by using this display toilet exactly how you'd imagine.

That's certainly not a mistake I'd want to deal with more than once.

We can see that it's depicting a rat but I can't help but wonder why it's shown in such an unusual position.

I don't think we usually ask the same detailed questions about graffiti that we would at an art gallery but here we are.

Apparently, the uploader got this one used and the original owner wanted to leave a little message from the past.

It's certainly more pleasant than the time I noticed the copy of Romeo and Juliet I read in school had the words "true love" crossed out. I hope whoever did that is doing OK now because that was kind of sad.

Like, did someone want Obi-Wan Kenobi to greet anyone who looked over at this plant or is some kid out there wondering what happened to their toy?

For those who aren't sure what we're looking at, it's ASCII art of a guy angrily flipping a table over.

I guess whoever made this anticipated a lot of angry gamers in their customer base?

It's sort of like graffiti except instead of spray paint, it involves people stitching their knitted works around random fixtures out in the wild.

It makes everything look a little cozier, I suppose.

Apparently, this fellow peeking out of the Abbey of Sainte Foy in France comes to us from as far back as the year 1050.

Talk about commitment to the bit.

I guess that regardless of whether you're referring to "walkers" in real life or the zombies in The Walking Dead, this is still pretty good advice.

But on the other hand, it's not like we make a habit of checking under bridges to see if their designs were inspired by Lego before we cross them.

It's a matter of perspective, I suppose.

If you look the spines on the show's DVDs, you'll see that Fox's little space on them also reflects the futuristic update.

It's one of those things we can walk by 100 times and never notice.

And from the looks of things, this company has the same scrub policy that TLC does and resents the implication that you'd describe them that way.

Good to know, I guess.
