The world is full of fantastic surprises , but it is also full of surprises that make you kind of wonder what the hell is going on…and not in a good way.
So, from people who found some of the most tone-deaf examples of advertising to individuals who came across the very stuff that nightmares are made of, here are 30 moments where people were left marvelling at the insanity of the world.

“This just can’t be legal.”
If they go over one single beasty speed bump then there will be absolute pandemonium. It doesn’t even look as though they have tried to tie these tyres down in any way whatsoever?!
“This Seashell Kitten my mom loves is just absolutely horrifying.”
There would be no way that I would have that thing sitting around in my house while it stares silently into the depths of my soul. Why does it look so discontented?
“Do I have to explain?”
Is she really the bets person to be putting on the front of a packet of apples? I really don’t fancy trying one of these apples now, for fear of sleeping for years…actually, that sounds pretty relaxing now that I think about it.
“Pennywise Vans…”
And it is original recipe Pennywise Vans as well. I like Bill Skarsgård’s Pennywise sure, but there is just something really unsettling about Tim Curry in that pasty makeup. The weirdly cheap wig is also creepy as well.
“When you get a Labrador thrown at you.”
This picture really messed with my head for a while. Although, I would much rather have an actual dog thrown at me instead of it being a bucket filled with whatever that is!
“I give you the greatest warning label ever.”
Another individual added:
“No joke, as a kid I owned a magic set that had a picture of a young boy on the box doing the tricks and a warning label [that read], ‘little boy not included.'”
“So I went to a shop selling plenty of granite today.”
Wow, that is one hell of an intense way to give people a warning about moving slabs. There was zero chill from the person who okayed this warning sign design!
“He is not like other guys.”
I would love to know what they were trying to translate to end up with this being the English reading of that sign. Maybe they are actually selling one man called Jake though? You never know!
“They are actually the same height.”
Even though my brain knew what was going on in this picture, it just could not quite piece the damn thing together. I also love how disappointed the person in the background looks.
“All windows were boarded up like this except for the windshield.”
Who says that you need to be able to see out of your windows when you are driving? Bloody nerds, that’s who! Real men drive without their peripheral vision!
“Wait, which floor am I on?”
I reckon you just split the difference and say that this is the fourth floor. Then at least you will be definitely only one floor off as opposed to potentially being two floors off!
“This is the way that my parents display their books…”
This is the perfect way for you to display your books if you blatantly have no intention of ever reading them! What a great way to easily piss off every book-lover who comes to your home!
“I don’t think that they quite understood the brief…”
I actually quite like the tone that they have gone for here! I think that having an inflatable flappy-arm guy at any funeral would really make it a more cheerful occasion!
“Mosaic embedded on a street in Detroit.”
I do not know why this thing exists, but I am glad that it does! Apparently, if you stand over it, the piece looks like a raised steak in the street. Now I’m just hungry though.
“What Thanksgiving dessert starts with a K!?”
Kie is actually a well-known delicacy in certain parts of the world. It looks and tastes pretty similar to regular pie, but it is spelt with a “k.” A lot of people can miss that subtle difference.
“My friend went to work with a pair of underwear hanging out of her pants all day.”
I think that everyone has done something like this at one point in their life. Although, maybe the world is full of people who are much better put-together than I am.
“This water-like epoxy floor.”
There is an element of this that is actually quite cool, but I just don’t think that I would want it in my house. Imagine being drunk and trying to walk on this, no thank you!
“That time that I simply couldn’t obey the sign.”
“I think that it is trying to say that the actual button was deep inside of you this whole time.”
“Seriously, Dave, this isn’t the time for that kind of thing, I’m bleeding out man!”
“Had a magnet pen for 4 years, sister borrowed it for 1 DAY and I have 6 missing magnets, 5 damaged beyond repair and a whole bunch of missing metal parts.”
You have to go out of your way to destroy a pen so effectively in just one day!
“I Hate UPS Just A Little Bit More Every Day.”
“I don’t need to read that sign as my job is to deliver packages and that is all!”
“But you aren’t even delivering the packages, you’re literally not doing the one thing that…”
“La la la la la la, I can’t hear you!”
“It’s shuesday…”
This is the perfect look for if you want it to seem as though you were born from the floor of a forest. I am sure that there are some people out there who are into that sort of thing.
The Worst Crime Of All!
“5 PM, Rush Hour. At least 3 cars are waiting to get to an open pump. These 2 have been done pumping gas and have been holding a causal conversation for 8 minutes now,” explained the person who posted this.
Well, That Was A Choice.
It was a pretty bold choice to go for a carnivorous plant when they were thinking of what plants to use for a urinal! Make sure that you don’t pee in those plants whatever you do.
“Someone cut down the tree that was planted in the memory of a family member.”
Maybe someone found something out about the person who this tree was planted for and decided that they wanted to forget them. It is pretty brutal though if that is the case.
“Picking up plastic on the beach today… Oh, the irony.”
Something tells me that the person who threw this into the ocean did not watch it first. Or, if they did, then it really did not have the desired effect!
“Is there a podiatrist on the plane by any chance?”
This is pretty hard to look at actually. I don’t think that I can look at or think about this for too much longer, let’s just move on nice and swiftly.
“This is a standing room only terminal. Karen held this row for an hour and a half. We are now about to start boarding.”
I am almost kind of impressed that anyone would have the gall to pull off such a scam.
The Worst Hiding Place Of All!
The backstory to this picture was expressed by the person who uploaded it as: “Well done Amazon. Been looking for my ‘delivered’ packages for the past few days. Check my orders, they were delivered to my cardboard recycling bin…which was collected 2 days ago!”
“The page numbers in this book being all over the place.”
Does the person who designed this book just hate everyone on Earth? Why would anyone be possessed to do such a thing?
“Designed by a genius!”
I cannot see there being anything wrong with clipping a plastic container of flammable liquid into your hair, that seems like a perfectly sensible thing to do! I mean, what could possibly go wrong?
