The funny thing about weird stuff is that you literally never know when to expect it. You could’ve had a day full of oddities and still end up surprised by some random thing you find.
Needless to say, I don’t think anyone was expecting these strange sights. But I’m still super glad people decided to take photos of them for the internet.
“This pickle is surprised.”
I have to know, who was surprised first? The pickle, or the person who opened their sandwich and found it? I guess like most mysteries out there, we may never get to know the answer.
“Discarded forsythia bouquet beautifying a Manhattan street.”
I don’t think anyone ever expects to find a whole plant growing out of a trashcan. Especially not in such a busy place like Manhattan. But hey, I guess stranger things have happened.
“The person who lived in my apartment before me planted pineapples.”
I’ve seen plenty of pineapple plants before, but they always weird me out. I guess you just don’t really expect them to look the way they do — or to be growing…there.
“Old garden stone broke and revealed Mary and Jesus inside.”
These are such… different things, put together in one lawn ornament. It’s like some kind of secret Christian message, only I don’t know what it’s actually trying to tell us.
“Thing I saw on a walk.”
I like the fact that OP called it a “thing,” because I, too, have no idea what the heck it is. Some kind of weird, tall plant in a weird, long fountain, I guess.
“There was a billiard ball inside of my bocce ball.”
I doubt OP was looking to break their bocce ball in the first place, but who would’ve expected a whole different ball from a whole different game to be in there?
“Funny sweatshirt I saw today.”
I wonder if that shirt has helped this guy on his stepmom search. Judging by the fact that he still has it on, I’m gonna go ahead and say it probably hasn’t. At least, not yet.
“It snowed last week in Upstate NY. Due to the odd weather conditions, the snow became a sheet and slid down my windshield making a perfect wave.”
This is strange and satisfying at the same time. I literally can’t take my eyes off it.
“Found a toilet full of vegetables at Pearson International Airport.”
Some Reddit commenters pointed out that someone probably had those vegetables in their luggage, and had to dump them before they got stopped at customs. Either way, not something you’d expect to find in a bathroom.
“This house in my neighborhood had a bunch of vultures on it today.”
Weird, and also kind of concerning. According to the Reddit comments, the vultures might be there because they’re attracted to a gas leak. That… doesn’t sound good, if true.
“Spooky forest trash found on my walk.”
I really don’t like the way the eyes on that emoji balloon have faded. Almost like they’ve been… scratched out.
I’m kind of convinced there’s an evil spirit or ax murderer in that forest.
“My dad owns a 200 year old house, just found an old bible in the attic.”
Apparently, finding a random, old bible isn’t as uncommon as you’d think. Especially in super old homes. But it’s still not something you’d expect to find, like, ever.
RELATED STORIES
“My fiancé and I both got the same fortunes.”
I’ve read quite a few fortune cookie fortunes in my day, and I’ve never had two of them give the same fortune in one sitting. Someone at the factory was too busy printing too many of the same ones.
“Family in the hospital parking deck can’t remember where they parked.”
I’d say OP should stop and offer to help them find their way, but they’re Canada geese. Better stay away unless you want a finger bitten off.
“This shadow of an oil rig on the clouds.”
Cool, and also very creepy. I have no idea what kind of weather/lighting conditions you need to get that giant shadow, but at least it’s an interesting sight to see.
“Sunlight reflected off this garbage can.”
Sometimes, when the lighting in your room is juuuust right, you end up with really weird shadows/reflections. Like the citrus wedge that’s surrounding the trash can in this picture. So weird, but so cool!
“Mangoes in the supermarket.”
I love it when mangoes have those little eye stickers on them. They look like cute little birds! Weirdly enough, though, that doesn’t make it weird or uncomfortable to take one home and eat it.
“I put a glass of water in the freezer for a few minutes and ended up with an ice cup.”
I guess OP’s freezer temperature is, like, really cold. Or maybe something else caused this ice to freeze in a perfect glass shape. Either way, cool!
“Cut into a tomato and a tomato farm was growing in it.”
Yeah, that happens from time to time. I don’t think anyone is ever expecting their tomato to be on its way to growing all new plants, though.
“I think I have a new roommate.”
Oh, okay. It’s a bear sleeping on someone’s porch furniture. Nothing to see here, people.
I, uh, think the best thing to do is stay inside and call people who specialize in getting rid of bears.
