Someone needs to check this sign.

Wow, the legal age to purchase tobacco has really taken a dramatic turn! Babies fresh out the womb are now eligible for a pack, apparently. This sign might need a slight update, unless there’s a Rugrats reboot I haven’t heard about.

“This bike parking spot is placed right in front of a bench that requires you to raise your bike up to place it on the bench.”

Absolutely loving the design choice of making you perform a bike-lifting feat just to use a bench. Nothing says 'accessible' like an aerobics warm-up. Perfect for those who think parking your bike should be a CrossFit challenge.

Wait, what? So the real ‘deal’ is paying extra when you’re a club cardholder? Somewhere, a rewards system designer is cackling. Normally you expect a discount, not a price hike for joining the club. Plot twist!

So this is what happens when packing material is just a distant memory. Four delicate ceramic trees, zero padding, and a whole lot of Christmas chaos. May your ornaments be less fragile and your shipping more considerate.

Eggnog is back! Or is it? Because apparently, it’s already gone for the season. This feels like the ultimate coffee shop bait-and-switch. Hope you weren’t too thirsty.

The bedding says 'Please input in English' and honestly, same. Love to see a little software error snuggled up on my pillow. Nothing says tranquility like a reminder to debug your dreams.

“I guess they want to represent folks with polydactyly.”

Either this train really wants to represent everyone or I’ve just discovered a club for six-fingered folks. How inclusive! Giving new meaning to 'lending a hand,' but now I’m just wondering how they find gloves.

“This badly stamped out fork I found in the work canteen.”

That’s one unique fork — or should I say, 'threek'? Digging into salad with this would be a real adventure. Just adds a bit of extra challenge to lunchtime. Who really needs straight prongs, anyway?
