20 Strange Pics More Interesting Than Pretending To Read Another Work Memo

Let's face it, the workday is pretty long, and pretty boring. We can't always avoid doing our jobs, but we can distract ourselves for a few minutes.

I know that, if you're reading this, you're probably avoiding another boring day at work. But don't worry, there's nothing boring about the pictures in this list. In fact, you could say they're fascinating.

"This 100-year-old perfume bottle that glows under blacklight."

I guess this is uranium glass? I'm not sure why this was ever a thing, but at least it's cool to look at. Even if you can't really do anything else with it.

"The view from the bathroom on my cruise ship last week!"

This is equal parts fascinating and terrifying. Fascinating because the view is so cool! But it's also the middle of the ocean, which automatically makes it way scarier than it should be.

"My sink has a light that changes depending on the temperature."

Wait, that's actually so awesome! You wouldn't have to stand around and stick your hand under the running water every few seconds to see if it's hot or cold yet.

"My tortoise has a paw print on the bottom of his foot."

Considering paw prints are at the bottom of a mammal's foot, this is actually in the perfect spot. Too bad this tortoise won't leave cute pawprints everywhere. Just cute tortoise prints instead.

"Someone in my building left refreshments out for delivery drivers during the holidays."

This is honestly such a nice gesture! I'm sure that delivery drivers are running on overdrive during this time of year, so even something as small as a free snack must be a great morale booster.

"My two-year-old rearranged the Santa blocks in front of the TV."

I doubt the kid knew what they were doing, considering two-year-olds can't really read. Or, maybe that's just what this toddler wants us to think. Maybe they're in cahoots with the devil himself, and we're none the wiser.

"My local pizzeria has a glaring typo on all their boxes."

I mean, I'm sure they had thousands of those boxes printed. So they're probably going to use those typo boxes until they run out, which could take some time.

At least it didn't accidentally spell a bad word or something.

"My wrapping paper’s pattern matched up perfectly on this box."

In all my years of present wrapping, I've never seen the paper line up as perfectly as it is right here. I don't know if it's luck or skill, but I'm still super impressed.

"The other day I just saw this stick floating in the air."

Either someone nearby is practicing some advanced magic skills, or this twig got caught in a spider web. As cool as the former would be, you know it's probably just spider webs.

"This skate case I bought in PA in 1995."

This looks exactly like any suitcase you'd find in an old movie about someone traveling. I don't know why, but I can't stop staring at it. I just think it's really neat.

"Spotted this lighter set into a stone slab at the beach."

I have a feeling no one's going to be using that lighter anytime soon. It must've fallen when the person who made this was, well, making it. But still, what are the chances?

"Found this glass lizard in my yard this afternoon. It is indeed a legless lizard but they are often confused as snakes. This particular one was just over a foot and pretty chill."

I'm honestly having a hard time believing this creature is anything other than a snake. I mean, isn't having no legs their whole thing?

Man, nature is full of surprises.

"This ant hill built around a boot."

Wow, the nerve of these ants. How dare they take someone's boot and build their colony around it? It may look kind of cool, but it also goes to show you how annoying ants really are.

"My daughter's toy has two left handed arms."

I'm sure most kids will just overlook this, but it's really bothering me. How did this Donald Duck toy end up with two left hands!? Did they run out of right hands in the factory?

"The snow on my roof is melting in the shape of incoming sunlight."

Yeah, snow tends to do that on a sunny, mild day. It's always really funny when you're walking down the street, and one side is still full of snow, but the other side melted.

"Found safety glasses in my Chinese food."

That's one big thing to lose track of in the factory. Even though I wouldn't know how I felt about eating the food (even with the goggles removed), I'd rather this than, like, a rat or something.

"A tiny pencil next to a huge one."

Both of these pencils are absurd for different reasons. One is absurdly skinny, while the other one is absurdly big. They're like polar opposites. And they both seem like they'd be really annoying to use.

"My (non-functional) prosthetic legs wearing mum jeans without me."

They may not be functional prosthetic legs, but they sure are fashionable!

Seriously, though, what a cool picture. I honestly can't stop myself from staring at it right now.

"This disposable fork/knife set that snaps apart."

I'm not gonna lie, this is pretty awesome. I'm not really sure it saves a lot of space or resources, but the concept is so much fun that it kind of doesn't matter.

"My partner bought a bright red OPEN sign for no reason."

It's amazing how that bright red open sign transformed this house into a really shady-looking shop. Or, like, a shady hair salon or something. It goes to show you how lighting can really change the mood of a room.
