30 Moments That Got Us Good

You hear it all the time, people life is about 'the little things' or something to that effect, trying to convince us that the tiny details of our day to day lives really do make it better.

And sometimes, they're right.

In this list of moments that got us good, we encounter tiny, captured seconds that show something funny. Real day-brightening stuff.

"Happy birthday, grandma!"

Some people noted that this photo looks like an ad. If cigarette ads came back and looked like this, I think they'd be pretty effective.

"This is my dad, currently working from home and on a call, shooting a blowdart gun at a box for target practice."

Many of us took up new hobbies this past year to make working from home more bearable — his is just of the potentially deadly variety.

"My son, the thief."

He has that running stance on lock. Spoils out of his hands so he can keep his balance, long strides, and fire in his eyes.

"Some people never outgrow their toys."

This person just saw a prime opportunity and took it, as should everyone who drives this type of car.

"The way my girlfriend 'changed' the toilet paper roll today. How do I tell her she needs to move out?"

This is beyond just moving out. This is grounds for breaking up. You might not want to but it'll be better in the long run, promise.

"The face she made when she had to pose with my MIL."

Your dog has a terrible poker face. She would have done terribly in that one painting.

"Time to talk about the elephant in the room..."

There is so much slightly off about this kitchen that it becomes really easy to ignore the elephant, actually.

"The Tesla King Ranch Edition."

Buying a Tesla then doing this to it is more of a flex than just owning a Tesla. Maybe even two.

"I was taking photos of my friend and the guy in the background decided it was his photoshoot."

You have to go through life believing that you're the main character, that's where all the fun and whimsy comes from!

"What a deal."

They're gonna count, though. If you have more than 100,000 hairs on your head, too bad, that's where they're stopping.

A spitting image.

As explained best by the uploader, "My wife took a picture of our youngest son and showed it to me. I responded saying I think I've seen that before. She asked what I meant and said she just took that picture so I [couldn't] have seen it before. A little while later I send her this and said I told you I'd seen it before."

"Happy Father’s day to my dad (up front) and that random guy making the same pose at the General Sherman Tree last week."

Dads have a max of three poses queued up in their heads when they need to take a picture. It was only a matter of time before two collided like this.

"This can happen when you blink faster than the shutter on the camera."

You mean 'this' being your child's demon reflection string back at you? Good to know! Very upsetting.

"Did this Uber driver just bring me to the Vet again?!"

"Like last time, I wanted to go to the park. Zero stars, no tip, and I'm reporting you."

"At least they're not being sneaky about it."

Forward and convenient. A clear, direct service that's transparent and helpful!

"We were trying to take a nice photo with the dog. Wet boy had other plans."

He was sad that you didn't come swimming with him, so he brought the water to you!

"Local convenience store tip jar..."

This looks like a great way to bring mullets back into style, let's do it. No one tip here!

"We work in the Center for Advanced Genome Engineering - the CAGE. So naturally..."

This will answer the question that scientists have been asking for ages, is Nick Cage a natural deterrent, or a welcoming presence?

"Please don't break my window, the dogs already dead."

Huh! Certainly not how I expected this notice to end but...it sure did. The Instagram account is really the icing on the cake here.

"She's 4."

She sure is four. Whether or not she's excited or pissed off about it remains to be seen.

"I’m going to need a loan to pay the late fees for this tape I found in my basement."

Everyone who accidentally kept these are the reason Blockbuster had to die. The end of an era, all thanks to you.

"[Cut] open some red pineapples at work."

Red pineapple? Are you sure? That straight-up looks like...ham. Pineham. Hamapple.

"My daughter made me this bracelet today."

Oh, children. So cute, so loving, and so very brutally honest.

"Behold my webbed (fused?) toe tattoo!"

The clear instructions are appreciated, but surely there's a better way?!

"One of my relatives saw this guy in the Atlanta airport."

Better to be overly cautious than overly negligent, I guess?

"Husband made me a Mel-o-lantern for Summerween!"

Spooky season is always and forever if you want it to be. No need for it to be October, you can invite the Halloween spirit in during any month!

"My [friend's] girlfriend moved out and took everything, including the drawer handles."

Sorry for your friend, but this is so perfectly petty, I'll be filing this one away.

"Proposed to my girlfriend yesterday and just noticed the guy in the back is not having a good time [...]."

This is like a situational version of 'one man's trash is another man's treasure'. Good news, it's not just another proposal pic though! It has a bonus story behind it!

"He heard the treat bag open."

That pup's moving at Mach speeds, no one will reach those treats before him!

"You didn’t expect that prison to hold me, Charles."

You knew of this duck's powers and still believed a flimsy iron gate would hold him? Foolish. You've brought upon your own demise.
