Tumblr User Says Fish Aren't Animals, Meltdown Ensues


This is one of those conversations that's just an absolute train wreck. We all hope that this is nothing more than a drawn out act of trolling, and that there wasn't actually any mystery around whether fish were animals or not. Truth is that there really is that level of cluelessness out in the world right now. At least we get some fails out of it.

Strict Teacher Tells Student Not to Speak, Totally Backfires


When you have a strict, or even angry teacher, you never forget about them. If only there was some way to simultaneously follow a strict teacher's rules, while also exposing their tyrannical ways? Well this person figured it out. For a better teacher, here's a Tumblr story about students who worshiped a stuffed octopus.

Tumblr Users Illustrate Terrifying Angels Using Historical Imagery


Tumblr users banded together to illustrate just how terrifying angels would look, using nothing more than historical imagery. There doesn't seem to be anything about these that scream, "angelic." Nah, getting more of a monster vibe than anything else. 

Check out some more fun from Tumblr with this thread about how death isn't a bad guy.

1.

Line art - What do angels actually look like per the bible? anonymous Well, according to Ezekiel 1 they might look something like this...

2.

Wing - According to Daniel 10 something like this... According to Isaiah 6.

3.

Human - In Ezekiel 10...

4.

Wing - Again in Ezekiel 10...

5.

Text - Basically, when the people writing Scripture tried to describe what they saw when they saw an angel... they run into the end of their imagination... they can never quite seem to fully explain it because they had trouble even comprehending what they saw, let alone being able to describe it to someone else. revelation19

6.

Hair - musiqchild007

7.

Text - revelation19 Yeah, that's usually how people responded to seeing them in the Bible.. the-unreadable-book There's a good reason why angels' standard greeting is 'Do not be afraid'.

8.

Text - glitterbomb-goblinking I used to listen to this radio show and one thing I remember because it was so funny was a Christmas special where an angel showed up to tell the shepherds about the birth of Christ. The conversations went: Angel: “FEAR NOT." Shepherds: *screaming* Angel: "I SAID FEAR NOT." Shepherds: *screaming LOUDER*

9.

Text - Angel: "WHAT PART OF FEAR NOT ARE YOU NOT UNDERSTANDING?" cameoamalthea So demons are fallen angels but they don't look scary because they're fallen, that's just what all angels look like.

10.

Text - Maybe that's why so many Christians see visions of Saints or the Virgin Mary instead.. like Jesus is all.no, no see being human made me realize sending Angels might not be the best idea. I don't know if humans can handle this. So I'm gonna just send mom bamf-castiel @fem-deanwinchester mathblr I'M GONNA JUST SEND MOM

Text - veronica-rich God: The humans are scared. Mary: Fine. I'm on it. upallnightogetloki Jesus: It's either Mom or the thousand eyed flaming wheel, Dad, do you really think the humans are gonna be chill with that when they're terrified of spiders already?

Tumblr Thread: Death as Not a Bad Guy


This thread asks the question, why would any God of Death every really need to be a bad guy? Why feel the need to speed things up if it's guaranteed to win in the end? These Tumblr users flesh out the idea of a death who's not that bad of a person. For some more creative tumblr musings on life and death and gods, here's a story about a selfless farmer with a heart of gold, as well as a tumblr thread on demons bonding over sandwiches.

1.

Text - mikkeneko concept: a death god that is actually surprisingly supportive and on the side of the good guys, supporting actions and promoting policies that will lead to the kingdom growing and thriving instead of being destroyed, because the more the kingdom grows, the more people there are, and the more people there are the more people will eventually die, and when you're an immortal god of death, you know there's no need to rush. you'll get them all in the end mikkeneko i like how the resp

Text - honourablejester Yes. A Death that is kind, and patient, and inevitable. A Death that need not fight against you, that will often fight for you, because why not? It will gather you home eventually. Why not enjoy you first? A Death that treasures those who fight it most ardently. That loves healers and defenders and survivalists and necromancers and mad scientists and immortal gods. That lets them pour everything they are into fighting it, denying it, adoring every desperate scrap of stren

3.

Text - A Death who will not seek to hasten an inevitable end, who will chastise those who seek to hasten it for others in Death's stead, who will slowly and patiently plot and sow and siphon away from the great monsters of the world. Because who are they to hasten Death's domain, who are they to deny Death its time and its place, who are they to cut short these vital glories that illuminate it so? Who are they to presume upon its will, that is so much larger and so much longer than theirs? Who a

Text - A Death that is not a hunter but a gatherer, who is always and eternal, who loves you, and can afford to wait. A Death who will fight for you and defend you, who will place its hand upon those who would speed you to its embrace, who has no need to rush you, only to greet you when you call. A Death who is kind. And patient. And, before all and above all, inevitable.

Man Has Glitter Bomb Delivered To The Office, Coworker Gets Surprised


This guy should've known what he was in for when he had a glitter bomb delivered to the office. Those things are no joke. No joke at all. It's only a matter of time before his coworker gets back at him. For an example of the sheer power of the glitter bomb, check out this video of a glitter bomb vs. a package thief over here.

1.

Text - r/tifu + Join u/mmmjr16 • 11h TIFU by buying my coworker a huge glitter bomb, and having it delivered to the office. M TIFU by buying my coworker a huge glitter bomb. So spent like $35 on the hugest glitter bomb could find online. I had it shipped to my coworker and good buddy, thinking he would open it as his desk after retrieving it from the mail room, as was normal when we get a package. The idea was that he'd open it at his desk, creating a beautiful glitter covered canvas of his own

2.

Text - Anyway, it had been a long time since I ordered and I honestly kind of forgot about it. We were coming back from lunch together and entered the huge front lobby area of our building. Our front desk secretary just finished signing for the packages that day and says: "Hey Jimmy John (fake name), you have a package that just arrived", which is not uncommon for him. However, usually we retrieve our own packages from the mail room. So at first I didn't think anything of it. That's when he says

Text - That's when it hit me....This huge as glitter bomb filled with like 1lb of "super fine" red glitter has arrived like 2 days earlier than expected. As he's unknowingly inspecting this massive spring-loaded mystery tube, I quickly try and sneak away towards the elevator, not knowing what is going to happen next. There is absolutely no way I would be able to keep a straight face, if he was to open this sucker RIGHT IN THE FRONT LOBBY! Welp, sure enough, this mother fucker decides to open thi

Text - He and the office lady stand there in silence for what seems like a solid minute as they try and process what has happened. The elevator had just dinged for me to make my "sneaky getaway", drawing their attention towards me as I stand there like a deer in the headlights, not moving and staring straight back at them. My buddy turns right to me, apparently looking guiltier than sin. He looks me right in the eyes and says: “You. Mother. Fucker!" The whole office must've heard. Hahah! What a

5.

Text - Anyway, I felt so guilty I ended up cleaning the whole thing up myself. It took almost an hour of vacuuming, sweeping, and wiping this super fine red glitter off of everything in the front lobby space. I was so embarrassed as everyone was coming back from lunch seeing me vacuuming and cleaning the front lobby, which was pretty strange for me to be doing when our regular custodians are also standing around watching the show. I finally get the mess cleaned up and had a good laugh about it a
