We may all have another week of busy days ahead of us, but that doesn’t mean we can’t take a nice, long break every now and again. And the best thing to do while on an impromptu break is to surf the web.
Let’s face it, you’re going to look at all the weird, absurd things the world has to offer. Lucky for you, you don’t have to look too far for them; there’s a bunch of them right here!
RELATED STORIES
“Never thought it would happen to me. We were the only people on our flight.”
Considering how many people take to the skies at any given moment, this seems like the rarest thing that could happen to a traveler. And yet, it happens every now and again. Might as well enjoy it.
“The impressions a frog made on my truck this morning.”
I’m not sure what would be weirder, finding a frog on your car, or just finding frog marks. Either way, though, you have to admit that it’s the last thing you’d be expecting when you’re about to go on your morning commute.
“11 DeLoreans in a parking lot.”
Finding just one DeLorean in a parking lot would be really odd. I can’t tell if the fact that there are 11 of them in one spot makes it better or worse, though.
There must be some kind of Back to the Future convention happening.
“I inherited an airline beverage cart.”
I guess there are weirder things out there that you could be inheriting. Like, a life-sized doll, or keys to an unknown safety deposit box. At least this beverage cart has a purpose that would make sense, even if it isn’t on an airplane.
“These large pumpkins I saw on the freeway.”
These pumpkins are so absurdly huge, and I can’t get enough of them. They look big enough to climb on, which sounds like a lot of fun, to be honest. I wonder if they’re, like, world record-shatteringly big or something.
“This 2D Cafe in Shinjuku.”
This is one of those things you really have to wrap your head around. It took me a good couple minutes of staring just for my eyes to finally get it. But now I really want to go to this cafe, just to see what it’s like in person.
“This single seat bench.”
I guess this would eliminate the awkwardness of sitting next to a complete stranger on a park bench. But… it just looks so strange. Like it’s just a random chair that someone put along this park trail. I really don’t know how to feel about it.
“This house is a converted indoor pool, the basement is the bottom of the pool.”
I guess building a house like this would save a lot of the time and money that would’ve gone into demolishing the pool and putting a basement in its place. Still though… it just looks so weird.
“The shadow that this seemingly straight stick made.”
It’s amazing how this pretty smooth-looking stick can make such a strange shadow. From this angle, the stick doesn’t look like it has all those sharp bends. But shadows don’t lie.
This is really weird, but also so cool!
“Bag of chips swelled up after driving from 400′ elevation to 4400′ elevation..”
Well, now we know what would happen if we took an unopened bag of chips to the mountains. Remind me to not pack chips next time I go mountain climbing—or maybe this is a reason why I should?
“A dove made a nest on the wreath hanging on my front door.”
Honestly, if I didn’t know any better, I would’ve assumed that the dove on there was fake. It really blends in with the whole serene, delicate floral arrangement there. It’s almost like the dove is camouflaging into its surroundings.
“Caught a purple lobster.”
I didn’t even know lobsters came in this color. That’s so strange! It would almost be a shame to cook it since it kind of looks rare. I guess the best course of action is to just take a bunch of pictures and let it go on its way.
“One of my bananas didn’t ripen.”
You’d think that all the bananas on a bunch would ripen at the same pace. Or, they’d at least ripen at similar paces. That one green banana didn’t even try to keep up with the rest of the bunch.
Well, at least it’ll be good for later (hopefully).
“My neighbor has a big inflatable thing to protect his car from hail.”
It looks really strange, but it seems like it would be really handy. Granted, it’s not like hail happens that often, and you don’t always know when it’s coming, so putting this thing on your car kind of feels like a shot in the dark.
“My Rite Aid keeps candy bars locked in cases.”
I guess some places have serious shoplifting problems. When something as cheap as a candy bar has to be locked up, you know things aren’t looking too good.
And it just seems so strange, to boot. Like, they shouldn’t be locked up like that.
“This tiny Tabasco that came in my lunch.”
That’s got to be the smallest bottle of Tabasco I’ve ever seen! It’s kind of cute, actually. Like, it probably won’t last more than a few meals, but something like this would be great to keep in your bag. You know, for spice emergencies.
“This light bulb filled with salt rock pebbles.”
I’m not really sure why there’s a bunch of rock salt in this lightbulb, but at least it looks kind of cool. I have to wonder if the heat from the light would affect the salt at all, though. Not that you’d be eating that.
“Someone put googly eyes all over the menu at my local Starbucks.”
Someone went through a lot of trouble to put googly eyes on all the pictures on this Starbucks drive thru menu. Like, a lot of trouble. Was it worth it? I honestly don’t know if I can even answer that.
“My dad got the battery in his pacemaker replaced and they let him keep the old one.”
I’m not really sure what use anyone would have for their old pacemaker battery, but I guess it would be a kind of cool keepsake to have. That thing was inside someone’s body at one point, after all.
“Every early October around noon, the sun shines through my parents’ bathroom window and perfectly illuminates their toilet bowl.”
I love how strangely specific this is. Like, of all the places for the sun to land, it ended up directly on the toilet bowl. A little cursed, and a little blessed.
