How often do you have a moment of realization that leaves you saying, “Wow,” in an Owen Wilson-esque voice? It happens to me a lot as I love being amazed by the world around us.
Well, I love laughing at the things around us, which is close enough. Please enjoy these people who were today years old when they realized something!
RELATED STORIES
“Found this picture of my sister and I. Taken right about the time I realized that we were keeping her and I was no longer an only child.”
That’s a moment of realization that isn’t going to fade quickly. That will be with you for the rest of your life, I can assure you of that!
“He chewed a hole in the cardboard box, chewed a hole into the beer, and now he’s passed out.”
Ooft, the first time you get drunk is pretty rough! That dog has one hell of a ruff morning ahead of him… See what I did there?
“My daughters job only allows black pants and no rips. Her normal pair was still in the washer so she hacked it. Will it work?”
I mean, they’re still ripped. But, I guess I could see someone getting away with this for a little while at least!
“My dad made this really nice landscaping in his front yard! Then he stood back and saw what he had done.”
“Dad, why did you choose that shape?”
“What shape? What on earth are you talking… Oh, god damn it.”
“I was a teenager before I realized that the labels on our town water towers were just a joke.”
As much as I may laugh at the idea of this, I know for a fact that I would have absolutely thought the exact same thing.
“The moment you realize you married a psychopath.”
Some people just want to watch the world burn. And, I am sorry to have to tell you, but your spouse is one of these people.
“My coworker’s dog when he realized it’s *his* cake.”
The person who posted this clarified that Apollo did not get the whole cake for himself, as people were curious about how much he had vomited back up!
“Squirrel facts on the subway!”
I knew it! I’ve been saying this for years, screaming it from street corners! And to think that they called me mad!
“It always bothered me that the dog got more detail than the man, so I removed it. I guess I get it now.”
Oh, God, yeah you really messed up there. This now looks like a very strange sort of park… A very strange park indeed.
“My cat messed up a single part of my window shades… never realized why until just now.”
This way she can keep a watchful eye on you at all times, and more accurately plan your murder.
“Spotted during the second inning of the Jays/Yankees game today.”
Too long, that’s how long. You’re in the for the long haul here, I’m afraid. Look, I don’t mind baseball, but I like to watch it at home so that I can do other stuff as well!
“Goodbye everyone. It’s been good knowing you.”
If all else fails, you could always try putting it in rice or pressing Ctrl Alt Delete, that should sort it all out.
“My fiancés family always teased him about having a square head, I never understood it until I saw this…”
Look at that little smirk! The person who posted this went on to say, “His head is of normal shape now, hence why I never believed them about the square head!”
So That’s What That Hole is For!
I always thought that you were supposed to drink out of the bottom of the cup, and that this hole was just for decoration. How foolish of me.
“Today was a good day. I’ve learned a lot.”
As funny as this may be, you know that there is probably a person out there with a peanut allergy who ate one of these, not realizing it was a peanut.
First Rule Of Door Club!
And to think that I have been using doors for all manner of other things over the years. I’ve been using them as fans, and even to cook eggs upon… How foolish of me.
“Landlord turned down the heat in my MN apartment as it hit -40°. Must have forgotten he pays my electric and doesn’t realize I value comfort over safety.
I like how this person thinks. I mean, it’s incredibly dangerous and I wouldn’t want to do it in my own building, but you do you, guy!
“My husband and I discovered you can get photo shower curtains!”
This opens up so many possibilities. If you could pick anything for your shower curtain, what would it be?
“My 2 year old is learning that not everything is food.”
In fairness, this is something that your child will be learning for the rest of their life. There will always be a soap that looks like food at some point on the horizon, and you will always fall for it.
“That moment you realize he was never acting.”
Paul Giamatti is his own entity. A being different from ourselves, too pure for this world. We do not deserve him.
“Parents, how’s that home schoolin’ going?”
For anyone out there who has experience teaching, you will also know that there is no such thing as a kid who is a “joy to have in class.” Not one on this planet. I really wasn’t cut out for teaching.
“Brought my puppy to the beach. Took him about 2 minutes to eat enough sand to learn he isn’t supposed to eat sand.”
How much sand do you think is enough sand to eat before you realize this? Two mouthfuls? Four maybe?
“So my girlfriend just discovered I own a Label Maker… within minutes, this happened.”
This cat has the face of a cat who has endured a lot of things in its life. It looks very much done with everything around it.
“My sister finally discovered her purpose in life…”
I’m actually curious if people still get this reference. Do people remember Home Alone 2: Lost In New York still?
“Lesson learned- don’t trust just any tourist to take your photo.”
You’re never too old or too young to learn that you should never put your trust in anyone! Everyone is terrible and you can only rely on yourself! Remember that and you’ll go far.
“My wife on our honeymoon the first time she had seen an ass.”
I love how happy with herself she is! Although, someone rightly pointed out that she is actually looking at the person taking her picture!
“I now realize that half-cooked eggs can’t be cooked further in the microwave.”
This is making me feel ill just looking at it. That is going to take so long to clean, and it’s probably going to stink for a long, long time!
“Today I discovered that our IT guy loves caramels.”
I suppose that it can’t hurt to incentivize people! Especially if those incentives include sugary treats!
“Girlfriend has been using these to do the dishes for the past week.”
Like, the full pod? Has she been popping them or is she just thinking the soap seeps through? I’ve got a lot of questions.
“Not my finest moment.”
I’m more impressed that the yolk didn’t break during whatever journey this egg took. It’s got strong bones.
“My dad ate half his sandwich with the wrapper on.”
At least he looks ashamed. That being said, it must have been a great sandwich if it covered the taste of straight-up paper.
“The moment my mother realized she made a mistake.”
There’s something almost haunting about this picture that I can’t really explain. Maybe it’s just the look in her eye. Either way I’m scared.
“Just realized my soap wasn’t working because it’s literally a block of cheese.”
If that’s where the cheese went, then where did the soap go? Is that why dinner was so chemical-y last night?
“My little brother used this for an entire school assignment before learning it wasn’t a glue stick.”
At least his project will be protected from the sun’s harsh rays! Not a sunburn in sight.
“My new kitten, Riku, will be a handful.”
This face definitely reads “kid who just got caught doing something foolish and knows it, but wanted to do it anyway.” Good luck, this won’t be the last time you see this expression.
“My daughter upon realizing that riding a bike takes practice.”
I know, kid, it sucks. You actually have to do things more than once to be good at them. Life is full of suffering.
“I’ve waited my whole life for this moment.”
Just bursting out of the car and rushing this chicken like, “Sir? Sir? Please, I have to know, why are you doing this? Where are you going?”
“Was looking at a hoodie I bought two years ago and just now saw this is on the inside.”
I always wondered why Unicorn Feathers never became a more popular clothing material, but it’s good to see at least some companies are still using it.
“My boyfriend got me a puppy for Christmas. He didn’t realize this would seal his fate of living a privacy-free life for the next 10-15 years.”
It’s moments like these that make me really glad I grew up with dogs. I know how clingy these guys are, and thankfully I equally like attention so it works out.
“Someone realized mid walk that it wasn’t 1994 anymore.”
I’m really proud of them. It’s time to let go. Wedge flip-flops aren’t going to come back, and thank god for that too.
“Captured the exact moment that I decided I should have stayed home.”
Hey, hiking isn’t for everyone, me included! The only difference between you and me is you at least tried it… I never stepped outside to start.
“Usually my dog likes to chill on the porch. This is the path he made this morning after he felt how cold and snowy it was.”
That was a quick decision at least, and he learned something about himself. He learned that winter will be the new bane of his existence.
“That awkward moment when you realize you are dating your deceased grandpa.”
That’s got to have some psychiatrists positively salivating, doesn’t it?! It would be weirder if your partner dressed like a 1940s pilot as well.
“My chemistry professor today in class.”
If you want a surefire way to get your students to pay attention, this would be it.
“Today I learned that the word for ‘Pull’ in Thai looks like an old school doctor, ready for some fisticuffs.”
This could be one of my favorite things that I have ever found on the internet, and I cannot figure out why. It could also be an irate mine worker, as someone else pointed out!
