Whether our eyes light up like a magpie or we’re sketched out by what we find, we can usually at least tell what we’ve come across. We might not know how diamonds came to be scattered on the street (we wish) or why someone’s toothbrush ended up in an alley, but it’s at least clear what we’re supposed to do with those.
But sometimes, there comes a time when we stumble across something that only leaves us scratching our heads. However, it seems that some among us have figured out what you’re supposed to do when that happens as well.
RELATED STORIES
From the looks of it, you take a picture and share your strange discovery with the internet.
It’s hard to tell what the inspiration here was, but this art piece in the Dominican Republic is an even more ambitious crossover than *Infinity War*.
Did the artist just notice that Thanos’ jaw looked a lot like Homer’s beard? Is this a commentary on how the media we love has been awkwardly smashed together under Disney’s umbrella?
If that’s true, is the McDonald’s gauntlet a reference to the partnership they had with Disney for years?
Am I overthinking this?
Sometimes, a perfectly normal scene can stand out thanks to someone’s clever observation.
In this case, the uploader said, “Went on a hike yesterday and stumbled upon a sniper convention.”
I’ll never look at any grassy mounds I come across the same way again.
I’m curious as to why somebody went down into this dark crevice in the first place, but I imagine they have some questions of their own.
I suppose I can understand why somebody would construct a shrine to Nicolas Cage, but were they actually hoping to summon him?
I don’t think that’s how it works.
Even in perilous situations like this, the toys have to pretend they’re not alive when someone like the uploader comes along.
I’m not sure why Woody is passively looking on in this situation, though. He’s not trying to get rid of Buzz again, is he?
I’m the furthest thing from a golfer there is, but I know a rage quit when I see one.
I’d wonder how mad someone would have to get to wreck several hundreds of dollars’ worth of sports equipment, but I guess the cost of replacement video game controllers can add up, too.
Fair enough.
I’ve got to say, the level of ingenuity that went into making this bridge is pretty impressive.
That said, I’m still guessing that it would be uncomfortably wobbly to actually walk across. At least we wouldn’t have far to fall.
While on a walk, the uploader watched a very strange scene unfold.
Considering that somebody appears to be filming this, maybe what we’re seeing here makes more sense when you watch the finished product?
I’m definitely curious about it if it has a gun-toting Easter Bunny, though.
If I had to pick which image on this list I expected to get an explanation for, I probably wouldn’t have chose this one.
This just seems like a bizarre doll that someone made for a mysterious purpose, but a collector of a type of doll called American Primitives said this was a fraudulent specimen that someone made and stained with tea to make it look older.
We never run out of devious ways to make a buck, I guess.
While it could be a little odd to find one pair of discarded skates, it’s likely to make us shrug and figure some kid doesn’t want to play hockey anymore.
That said, I have no idea what we’re supposed to think about over a dozen pairs of skates just left lying around like this? Were they all left here at once or did they build up over time?
And even if an entire hockey team quit en masse for some reason, this pile would still seem like it has a few extra skates.
This mini-putt course probably looked pretty cute and whimsical once, but time and neglect have made it really creepy.
And considering that a New Edition fan apparently tagged it up, I’m guessing this place was abandoned a really long time ago.
Someone just tied this gym locker together with paper towels.
Sure, it would be insultingly easy to open this, but I’m guessing they thought people would be too suspicious of where this has been to touch it.
Does that make this the best or worst way to keep people out?
When someone turned a corner, they were greeted by a whole lot more than they bargained for.
It’s hard to tell what this mural is supposed to represent, but it obviously took a great deal of talent and effort considering that the faces actually look distinct.
It’s definitely startling to have so many eyes staring back at you when you’re expecting zero, though.
This has to be one of the most specific parking spots I’ve ever seen.
This was apparently found in the parking lot of a Canadian bus station, so I guess someone in charge of it figured out what most people come here to do.
Although most of the people on this list happened to wander into their weird scenes, the uploader of this one was supposed to be there.
As he put it, he’s a mailman and he was delivering a package of logs to the…eccentric person who lives here.
He also said he didn’t walk them up to the door, which is a little understandable in this case.
Some of the things these folks have stumbled across have mysteries that we may never solve, but this one couldn’t be clearer.
I’m guessing that the next parent-teacher conference this parent attends will have a very appreciative vibe to it.
It seems that somebody jammed a bicycle seat into a log, but your guess is as good as mine as to why.
At the very least, one commenter had heard of people doing this to make makeshift sleds.
I guess I’ll go with that as an explanation for now because trying to imagine another function just made me picture myself shrugging my shoulders in defeat.
I guess it’s because I never had them myself, but I wouldn’t have guessed that these dolls have a weird stick holding their bottom halves together.
And to think, I never would’ve seen behind the curtain if someone didn’t really hate this doll for some reason.
A horseshoe crab isn’t such an uncommon sight depending on where you live, but they don’t usually have googly eyes on them.
And it may seem like whoever did this was really daring to get so close to the creature, but it turns out that horseshoe crabs are only poisonous when you try to eat them.
You simply never know what objects plants will find a way to grow out of.
When a Nerf fight breaks down, there’s an understanding that some of the darts we fire won’t make it back home. But in this case, it seems one became a home instead.
There’s no wrong place for a party.
At least, I’m assuming this is for a party, that or the coolest music video I’ve ever seen.
A community building activity gone a little awry.
Apparently painted rocks are commonly found in this community, with most families participating, but that doesn’t make this one any less weird. Also, now I want cheese.
Dinner and a book.
This user’s boyfriend found what seems to be a bit of newspaper in his chicken, but really they’re just doing you a service. They want you to to catch up on the latest happenings while you have dinner!
Found behind a picture frame was this little man.
And he’s incredibly pissed that you found him! Mad in the cheery way people get when they’re a terrifying blend of annoyed and angry. I hope you turned him back around!
A cat with a penchant for bottle cap collecting had his stash discovered.
Even he looks impressed by it. “Dang, I really got this many? Maybe I do have a problem.”
Someone found this Daniel Radcliffe lookalike at a thrift store.
I know he’s been taking on a lot of different, weird roles since Harry Potter , but even this is a big departure.
The things that farmers find.
This is an egg. Yes, a chicken egg. In wondering how it got like this, user bigredcar laid down some info, “The first egg that a hen lays usually has very little shell and so can be almost any shape.” We all learn today!
A legend falls.
Though this is on an Ohio plate, apparently the same joke was made in Virginia and the man who did it was forced to change it. Dang government, can’t take a joke.
Rocks and minerals and glass eyes.
I guess I never considered a glass eye to be something one could lose to the sea and find washed ashore, but, ah, she is a thief of all things. Also, someone just didn’t have it in when they should have.
Always be cautious while driving.
Be sure to follow road signs so you and other drivers don’t get carried away by giant mosquitoes.
Imagine returning to the parking lot to get your car and finding this.
Though kind of creepy, a user came in to let us all know that it’s an art installation in France. I don’t get art sometimes.
When you leave a vehicle parked downtown overnight on a Friday, there’s a good chance it’ll look a bit different the next morning.
In this case, it apparently picked up a passenger because some prankster thought it would be cute to put a trash bin on it and make “vroom vroom” sounds.
At least, I’m assuming they made the noises. Otherwise, what’s the point of doing this in the first place?
Breakfast, the most important meal of the day.
What is that even? A big fruit loop? A chunk of sugar? I guess there’s only one way to find out.
University dollars being put to good use.
Yes, this was found in a university, and no, it seems no one thought that calling an exterminator or pest control was an easier solution.
The action figured we’ve all been waiting for.
For $1.99? You bet I’m grabbing this. Great on its own, but also bound to be a collectible in a few years’ time.
It’s not every day you find an elk on your roof.
This just means you got an early visit from Santa! An early, personal visit. He wants to talk to you about your sudden move to the naughty list.
