Generally speaking, we try to appreciate people who are going against the grain. Heck, we even come up with expressions for it — like "going against the grain" (see the last sentence) or "thinking outside the box." Sometimes, it's hard to tell when these ideas are good and when they're a little too far outside the norm.
16 People Doin' Things A Little Differently
1. The look on the second person's face is all of us right now.
I was already impressed with the whole bunny-on-a-leash thing well before I noticed there was a bird on their head. Now we're just in a whole world of wackiness that I'm not prepared for.
2. When you've got one feature that works for you, so you find every excuse possible to show it off to the world.
For me, it's my sense of humor (I know that's hard to believe based on the crap I write on this website). It's not even really a "good" trait, it's just the top of the bottom of the barrel, y'know?
3. Where some people would see a crisis, Aaron here saw an opportunity.
I mean, he could have taken a few extra steps and gone to a store other than Rite Aid, but I don't think I've ever really put that much work into Mother's Day.*
*Fun fact: I am a bad son.
4. Imagine driving behind this setup and trying to not have the Law & Order theme song play in your head for the rest of the week.
I'd probably also make that "dun dun" sound every time I walked into a new room. I bet I would be intolerable to be around.
5. Well, that's one way to try and do things.
I guess this gimmick was from a few years back and this guy is working in professional wrestling now. So, eight-year-old me would say that he is absolutely living the dream.
6. I'm not sure whether to take this sign very seriously or not seriously at all.
If there's one thing in the world I'm bad at, it's understanding satire. Like that time I tried to open a cannibalism restaurant after reading Jonathan Swift.*
*Fun fact: I'm lying about having read Jonathan Swift.
7. Listen, you gotta do what you gotta do.
Looking a bit ridiculous IRL is nothing compared to letting down your dozens and dozens of Myspace followers. They need to know all of your Linkin Park-related hot takes.
8. Sometimes, life is full of choices that you're just not ready to make.
On the plus side, it encourages you to keep both rooms clean — since either one could be on display at any given moment.
9. Apparently there was a lot of hotel-related content on the internet today. But look! This bathtub fills from the ceiling! How zany is that?!
Is there some kind of practical benefit to this that I'm not understanding? Is this actually just drainage from the roof?
10. "I filled in those potholes like you asked, boss."
At least with the gray bricks, it looks like there was a plan to try and really fill in all the gaps. Once we got to red brick town, all bets were clearly off.
11. This whole time, you probably thought that those glass partitions were to stop people from getting in.
Turns out that it's just a test to see who really wants to know what's up.
12. Normally, I am entirely on board for puns — but I have to draw the line somewhere.
It's embarrassing enough to have to call for a tow. There's no way that this would make anything better.
13. Ah, yes. The most important life lesson of all: that nothing you do is likely ever going to be all that important, unless, of course, it matters to you.
I can't tell whether I just uplifted myself or made myself sad. I'll get back to you and tell you where that landed.
14. Sometimes when you've been partying for a while, you can't wait around for things like your Uber to show up — or more urgently, for that frozen pizza to cook before you start eating it.
15. I could not begin to guess what happened in this situation.
I've left some things on the stove for too long before, but I've never actually summoned a goopy demon before. Anyone care to hazard a guess as to what went wrong?
16. It's weird to carry around your ultrasound to show off to everybody, but thank goodness you've got the opportunity to squee about your new baby via your...fingernails?
I get that you're excited to meet the little one, but...yeah, I dunno. Maybe I shouldn't be so judgmental.
