In typical tumblr fashion, we've got a situation that upends ye olde sci fi tropes with the prospect of a regular person chilling on a ship full of cold, calculating Vulcans. It's reminiscent of this study into human nature featuring a space-worthy weaponized Roomba. Tumblr has its own Star Trek ideas, like these questions Tumblr had about gay Klingons.
Life has all this boring convention and expectation to it. That's why mad lads who play by their own rules can be such a refreshing change. The mad lads of the world are out doing shenanigans, subverting the world's expectations, and going the extra mile for their own ridiculous ends. It's all about those mad lads who play the game their way.
Back when Mike Judge was doing Beavis and Butthead, or as some would call it, Porky's Butthole, he got a strange and interesting critic who would one day become the inspiration for everyone's favorite mushmouthed jargon-spewer Jeff Boomhauer.
Ever seen a big bucket of molten metal and wondered what would happen if that thing took a little spill? Thanks to terrifying workplace accidents, we have the answer. Now it's time to wonder what it's like to have to clean up a few hundred gallons of cooling aluminum. Get the mop.
Gotta love a manager with a sense of humor to match their intolerance for idiotic customers. Employees have dealt with some ridiculous customer demands, having to debase themselves for the flawed and almighty " customer is always right" mentality. Here's another one where a customer weaponized a tip jar to defeat a Karen.
The world is full of unforeseen hazards, and we can thank creepy sign makers for clueing the rest of us in on all the junk we could step into. Spooky signs say a lot with their creepiness and sometimes the sign itself is scarier than the danger. That said most of us would prefer not to fall into a radioactive mine shaft so we can thank these spooky signs even if they're too dang scary.
Sometimes you meet someone and you just know they're going to be nothing but trouble without even knowing them. This revenge story's villainous couple certainly gave off those shady vibes. Bill had the audacity to steal the guy's power and water over and over again, and vastly underestimated the guy's capacity for executing a beautiful, calculated revenge. The pool salt was just a plain old brutal touch.
Check out another glorious pro revenge tale from the same guy over here. Can't decide which one's better.
Bootleg products never fail to capture our imaginations. When it comes to off brand toys, some are just weird amalgams of spare parts and others are freaky new mutations. Outside the safe and predictable world of branded, trademarked products lies an untamed land of uncredible bootleg products. Welcome to the jungle, baby.
Nothing quite like a good old neighbor quarrel over a parking spot. In this case, the invasive neighbor at hand refused to be reasonable and park where they should've in the first place. So, naturally, the person being blocked in had them towed away. Honestly, it seems like that was the only move available at their disposal after trying to reason with them. The moral judges of Reddit's AITA community seem to be in agreement as well that the towing was completely appropriate.
Every school had it's extremely compelling drama, from ways people rebelled against school rules to weird and wild junk said by teachers. Every class had a quiet kid, and while that kid wasn't always the center of attention, they had their moments. When push came to shove, that quiet kid had something insightful or hilarious to say.
Just in case you haven't seen the iconic, cinematic masterpiece that is "Ratatouille", it's a lovely animated film that follows the adventures of a struggling 20-something named Linguini. The dude falls on hard times after his mother passes away, and then proceeds to be thrown headlong into the challenging pits of a competitive Parisian restaurant. To make matters even more wild for the poor kid, he ends up befriending a rat who knows how to cook like nobody's ever seen. It's really a miracle Linguini didn't have a full on mental collapse with all that going on. This Tumblr thread honors his struggles that were kind of skimmed over in the film.
Check out some more totally random, strange, and funny Tumblr gems over here.
Sure the internet has the potential to connect us with savvy, like-minded individuals, but it also gives us more deaf ears for jokes to fall on. Maybe it's poor reading comprehension or maybe it's not wanting to get the joke in the first place. It's amusing, but also kind of sad to see so many people aggressively not getting the joke.
While the internet is the painful home for a whole lot of strange and cursed images to feel weird about, no cursed images hit that peculiar disgust-factor quite like cursed foods from lucifer's larder. It's a dark carnival of horrible food combinations, bad ideas, and food caught up in intriguing situations. Whatever it is, it's a lot.
We've all been there at one point or another in our lives. We're going about our daily business, just trying to check all the boxes without completely failing, and then boom, someone you know, never met, or you ends up spewing out something into the atmosphere that is discouragingly devoid of common sense. Maybe it's an innocent brain fart, or perhaps it's something more ominous, like pure ignorance. This collection of the dumbest things that people have ever said might at the very least serve to make you feel just a bit better about yourself.
Our brains think they're good at identifying things, but sometimes it's better to clear the pipes and show those brains of ours just how dumb they really are. A few double take images of skewed perspective are enough to show your brain that it's not so smart after all. Take that brain, you wet, electricity-powered moron.
