Do you believe that everything happens for a reason? No matter how minuscule, there’s some sort of purpose behind it?
If so, you might resonate with this list. Though the things shown are strange, there’s reasoning behind it. Maybe. Hopefully.
RELATED STORIES
“[This] wishing well with a eftpos machine.”
What a future we live in where we can pay for wishes with credit cards.
“My 4 year old [daughter’s] fortune.”
What’s the cutoff for ‘children’ here? I’m in my 20s and I’m also feeling this weight.
“The trainer my dog goes to helps build confidence and trust in the dog by having them stand on Tin cans.”
He probably has his reasons, but can’t he at least use clean cans? The rust around a puppy’s paws is making me nervous.
“In my covid vacant office, it’s been this [woman’s] birthday for over a year.”
Of all the things that were left in offices around the world, this one feels the most haunting. Happy belated birthday, though!
“The way this hammer has changed through the years & weather.”
Saying ‘changed’ is putting it lightly. ‘Completely disintegrated and decomposed’ would be more accurate.
“Crazy flooring between two shops in Gothenburg, Sweden.”
The perfect trick for startling phone-staring pedestrians when they look up.
“A random ‘Rick Moranis’ sticker showed up on a utility pole outside of my work today.”
A pretty bright and direct way of declaring you’re a fan! Or a new promotional stunt, we’ll find out in a few weeks.
“A woman came into my work today with her 4 week old goat under her arm.”
Thank goodness he has a sweater on, it’s still cold out these days!
“Japanese mini [measuring] cup looks backwards from the front, but it’s meant to be seen from the back.”
Tiny things like this would make all of our lives easier, yet they seem so rare.
“Found this kid riding an interesting bike around.”
Not just interesting, it’s cool as hell. That has to be the best bike on not only his block, but every neighboring block for a 20 mile radius at least.
‘These large wire cutters tell you to sit on them to use them.”
Alright, wire cutters, if you insist. I think I could manage by, like, stepping on them, but if this is the way you designed them…
‘This Lego Magnifying glass works.”
They wouldn’t just sell a product that doesn’t work, no matter how small!
“My city has an egg vending machine.”
That machine probably gets a lot of orders from that bottom row, no one wants to risk a drop from the top.
“Molar in Moss outside my Dentists’ Office.”
While this is cute, you’d think if they were going to do a plant feature, they’d go bigger with it.
‘Bagpipe Practice Room found in trains – Only in Scotland.”
Is this probably storage or an office? Yes. Would that make it even funnier if someone heard bagpipes coming from there one day? Also yes.
‘This lowercase stop sign.”
Fun fact, since these are custom signs (most often seen around Chick-Fil-A, it seems) they aren’t actually legally binding. This isn’t saying to not obey them, just be careful.
“Left one of my fuzzy socks too close to the fireplace where they were drying and this happened. Fabric is still good.”
That’s one tough sock! Lucky break for you, too. That’ll teach you to not leave clothes by the fireplace all willy nilly.
“Ramen place I’m at has ramen lights […].”
Finally, a food-resin craft I can actually get behind. The setting being fitting is another plus.
“This coffee machine has a soup button.”
As a follow-up, the poster did push the button and got a cup of cream of chicken soup. Technology is amazing.
“The most teal I’ll ever see in one room.”
This is part of an art exhibit called Mesmerize. It’s clear they excell in visual art and not poetry.
