19 Things That Weren't Funny On Purpose

There's the kind of humor that's carefully crafted in advance, and then delivered in the form of a perfect joke.

Then there's the kind of humor that just kind of shows up, out of the blue, and takes you by surprise.

Today, we're going to celebrate those instances of wild humor appearing.

"Suppressing every childhood video game urge in me right now…."

It's a good thing they're suppressing that urge, because I'm absolutely certain any attempt to ramp that truck would not end up the same way it might in a GTA game.

"This sticker on one of my dad's cd cases."

Reddit | Yes_v2

Back when Guns N' Roses was the biggest band in the land, stickers like this were about the edgiest, most controversial thing possible. Yeah, we've changed a lot since the '90s.

"Gonna have to call that repairman back."

Reddit | jmcnamararr

This is like the IT version of a surgeon leaving their scalpel inside a patient after they've sewn them back up. In this case, fixing the issue is a far less gross proposition.

"Thrilling chase underway here..."

I wonder if the driver of the front truck knows what the back truck is all about. If they did, it would probably chill them to the bone to know that they had a pallet-obsessed stalker.

"And that, my friends, is how clouds are formed…"

Reddit | corey333

Seeing this pic makes me want to travel the world capturing photos of clouds that look like they're being farted out. Is there a market for something like that outside of Reddit?

"You are NOT going to believe what happened while you were gone."

Reddit | kpclaypool

I can just picture this dog trying to come up with a plausible story to tell.

"This whole room just got messed up, and I tell ya, I'm just as mad about it as you are!"

"Today my little brother came to me to show me what he has invented. Something is very wrong with this child."

Reddit | SirPagac

You've gotta love it when something that's explicitly designed to be safe, like a Nerf dart, is rigged to be extremely dangerous.

"There are perks to numbering rooms."

Reddit | AggressiveBaby

I'm not sure if it would be funnier if this was an accident or if it was done on purpose. In any event, I'm sure it's inspired quite a few chuckles over the years.

"My friends got married. Did NOT know they were taking a photo in the window and photobombed the pic."

Reddit | Fartica90

Nothing beats a good photobomb. The best kind is demonstrated above: subtle, all face, no body, and funny but not particularly inappropriate.

"My brother cleaned and organized our bathroom while I was away last week. Last night I accidentally left some things out, so he set this little scene up with his Legos."

Reddit | Literally_Jaden

The poster is so certain that their bro did this that they're not even willing to entertain the possibility that the minifigures came to life.

"Don’t you want to know the truth?"

Reddit | FraternityMan

They almost had me in the first half, not gonna lie. Also, on a semi-related note, can we stop pretending that vaccines are some kind of unknown technology? We've had them for over a century. They work.

"Car maths."

Reddit | someonewithacat

No one, least of all the driver of this car, was asking a random person to work out a math problem in the grime on the bumper. But then again, you don't need to be asked to spring into action.

"Can someone explain what is happening here at H&M? Who is buying these gowns from the 1918 funeral collection?"

Reddit | Siovhan

Seeing these, I'd probably think, "Huh," then move on with my day. But the comment about the 1918 funeral collection had me giggling a bit.

"Local Wendy’s meets its end."

Reddit | anotherguy252

This is the way a Wendy's ends: not with a bang, but with a cheerful and polite sign informing customers that no one showed up and the last remaining employee plans to quit soon enough.

"John Cena looks like a jacked Jim Varney, and this has bothered me for YEARS!"

Reddit | smoffatt34920

Do you ever see something that makes so much sense you'll never be able to unsee it? Yeah, I think that just happened with this photo.

"Daughter was told to write about something she likes."

Reddit | Stag328

It kind of seems like this girl asked her dad for help with homework and he just went on a free association digression about how much he loves steak. Well done.

"In a brief lapse in judgement, I asked what the difference between left and right tampons were."

Reddit | yellowbythedozen

I don't know if I should even ask this, but if OP thought there were left and right tampons, where did he think each side would go?

"My son turned 1 yesterday. This was the topper to his space themed cake. Left is what we ordered, right is what we got."

Reddit | Drewlyn

If there's any consolation, a one-year-old won't remember how nightmarishly terrifying the topper on this birthday cake looks.

"I have questions."

Reddit | countrybuhbuh

I also have questions. For instance, why is it such a good deal to milk two people? Why do you have to pay a full dollar more if you want to milk two cows? I demand answers!
