“This movie theatre has deodorants in the restroom.”
Whoa, this theatre takes its customer service seriously! Not only can you freshen up your hands, but you can walk out of the bathroom smelling like you’re ready for a date, not just a movie. You wonder if this is a helpful trend or a friendly nudge about your popcorn-induced musk.
"Was waiting for the elevator when a short-circuit forced the doors open and left the whole thing like this."
Well, if there's one advantage to seeing this frayed, cluttered wiring after this short-circuit, it's that nobody's going to be mad about the inconvenience here. It would take an act of daredevilry to want to go in there after seeing this.
However, the only downside is that this deterrent might work a little too well and make people nervous about using any elevator again. Oh well, taking the stairs is supposed to be healthier for us anyway and fear can be a pretty powerful motivator.
"Bunnies decided to use the sidewalk"
When sidewalks go unplowed for too long or get icy, it's not uncommon for people to chance walking on the road instead. Fortunately, it tends to be doable because most drivers don't want to be out in inclement weather either.
However, it appears that the bunnies of the world have the opposite inclination when things get cold. As these adorable little tracks prove, it seems they've come around to the idea that we humans know what we're talking about with all this sidewalk business. Maybe they're also using crosswalks properly, too.
“Human used in billboard for a holiday company, Shoreditch - London”
This ad campaign is on another level—literally! Featuring a real person sunbathing right on the billboard, it’s hard to tell if I should book a trip or just clap for the live performance. Points for creativity; London’s Shoreditch always finds ways to surprise you around every corner.
“Canadian businesses are not allowed to use the maple leaf from the Canadian flag”
That’s some very specific leaf law! Who knew there were rules about how pointy your maple leaf can be in Canada? I’ll never look at autumn crafts the same way again. Somewhere, there’s a designer quietly cursing botanical accuracy and regulatory agencies at the same time.
“I saw 2 people fall asleep in the same position”
I’ve never seen synchronized sleeping until now. Did exhaustion hit these two at the exact same angle, or is this some new relaxation trend I don’t know about? Honestly, they look like a modern art piece titled ‘Monday at Noon.’ Sometimes the best nap spots are also the most photogenic.
“Beef jerky bag only had one large chunk of meat”
Wow, talk about a one-piece snack! This beef jerky bag decided to skip the traditional slices and hand out a full-on slab instead. That’s efficiency—or maybe just confusion at the packing plant. Either way, snack time just got more challenging. Do I eat it whole or break records?
“My puzzle has cat pieces in it.”
I love puzzles, but this is a new one—cat-shaped pieces scattered among the classic jigsaws! Am I assembling a sunset, or a mysterious feline takeover? Either way, I feel like every puzzle should come with hidden surprises like this. Purrfection in cardboard form, really.
“The top glass of this light fixture is opaque while the bottom is not”
Am I the only one bothered by mismatched glass on a light fixture? Top half says, ‘frosty vibes only,’ while the bottom half is clear and proud. It’s a lamp with an identity crisis—but hey, in today’s world, why not let your lighting live its truth?
“The Queen Mary 2 stores extra propellers on the deck and calls it "Prop-Henge"”
Propellers on deck, dubbed ‘Prop-Henge?’ This cruise ship wins at both safety and quirky naming conventions. I’d half expect to find Stonehenge souvenirs in the gift shop too. Next time you’re at sea, keep an eye out for mystical nautical monuments hiding in plain sight!
“Found this smooth piece of wood from the sea shore”
This piece of wood is smoother than a river stone and looks oddly like a mystical artifact. Forget skipping rocks, I might get special powers if I hold onto this for long enough. If only every trip to the shore rewarded you with souvenirs this zen.
“This Donkey Kong mural painted on an apartment building”
Someone leveled up their whole building by painting Donkey Kong pixel art right onto the exterior! It’s nostalgia AND curb appeal rolled into one giant mural. All apartment complexes should be this fun. Forget keys, I just want to conquer a few levels before going inside.
“My ring fingernail grows with a permanent groove in it”
Wait, not everyone’s ring fingernail grows with a built-in groove? I thought this was just an optional update from nature or something. Guess my hands have a permanent ‘feature’ that keeps life interesting. At least it’s an easy way to recognize my own fingers in a crowd!
“My blueberry has letters and a number on it”
Hold up, is this blueberry trying to tell me something? Since when did fruit come with cryptic codes? Maybe I just unlocked a new flavor or accessed berry VIP status. Suddenly my snack feels like part of a secret inventory. Should I still eat it or send it for scientific analysis?
