An outspoken few of us are scouring our lives looking for unwholesome imagery in television, music and apparently, elementary school art exercises. Some real wild stuff gets passed off as legit by mom groups. This misunderstanding had some extra facepalm on it. Fittingly, people made an even bigger mockery of the situation. Being a teacher can be hard especially when it comes to wild parent teacher conferences.

Some days are easier to adult than others. If you ever wake up and reach the bold conclusion that it's time to call out sick from work, you might find yourself getting very creative when it comes to hatching up an excuse. Some people have no limits when it comes to the "reasons" they're calling out sick from work.

All that Wendy's had to do was ask for McDonald's to roast them, and the rest of Twitter proceed to roast McDonald's. That's when you know you've got the power as a roast master on Twitter. When you can literally point in the direction of McDonald's who was minding their own business, and get people to roast them on your behalf, just by asking McDonald's to roast you. It's some kind of psychological trick, and it played out in brilliant fashion. People were quick to deliver on the roasts about McDonald's broken ice cream machines.

All of these signs have the potential to instill some good old fashioned fear. Some of these spooky signs are probably incredibly helpful and we're lucky to have them. Some terrifying signs just sound like a threat. For a break from the scary, here are some funny signs.

This tenant found themselves in a deal they didn't agree to with a landlord who tried to steal from them. So they took stock of the things that they could legally control, and made them an ultimatum. Sometimes landlords will try to scam their tenants, but it doesn't work out for them.

A public restroom can be a strange place. It's a public place built for some of the most private things people do. You end up meeting some wild characters and your most vulnerable of times. For some toilet humor here's funny bathroom graffiti, and a bunch of creepy cursed toilets.

This granddaughter hit the end of her rope. It sounds like grandma had all kinds of toxic boundary issues, and went so far as to steal her granddaughter's new clothes to trade them in for some new utensils. New utensils! Pure madness. From there, it was a quick and brutal revenge that resulted in those very utensils being donated. The look on the grandma's face must've been priceless.

It's kinda hard to look at our distant ancestors as people who had thoughts and feeling similar to ours. Like yeah, a neanderthal didn't know what it felt like to be stuck in traffic, but they still had families and priorities. This Tumblr thread expresses an interesting way of thinking about life before us. Tumblr can actually make history fun. For some more historical stuff, here's Tumblr's discussion of where ideas for some mythical creatures came from.

Twitter user @JewelKnightJess kickstarted a thread that has people combining the last TV shows they watched with video games, for creative crossover results. Pretty fun to try out!

Every artist has their own idea of what people will like. Whether or not these people were successful in their day, it's clear that their album art has not aged well with the passage of time. Some of these unfortunate covers look like mugshots. Here are more creepy and weird album covers of the past.

If you asked us whether we expected someone to go ahead and rank the Marvel movies by if there are any trains in them, we'd have said, no way. But here we are. Good old Tumblr never lets us down when it comes to surprising us with hyper-focused posts on various subject matters. We'll never look at Marvel movies the same.

Who would've known that the easiest way to toy with a telemarketer would be to meet all their questions with "yes." It's obvious and absolutely brilliant.

We like that he's trying to talk, and we like it even more that he even sounds condescending. When someone gets in our face with BS, we'd love to be able to quote Charlie.

This plumber unknowingly traumatized the hotel staff when it came to the innocent act of trying to unclog a toilet. That snake must've looked like it was actually possessed by some kind of demonic spirit.

This pizza delivery employee couldn't seem to catch a break. The poor guy just stumbled from one fail into the next. Fortunately, it sounds like everything ends up working out for him with his especially unlucky customer. Probably best that the two dudes go their own separate ways.

Almost everyone likes pranking, but no one likes being pranked. It's one of those fundamental problems that comes with messing with your friends. Sometimes smart employees prank bad customers, sometimes customers try and fail to prank employees. Sometimes people realized they've been pranked, but they don't realize they're on live television.

This wholesome moment from humanity actually being pretty awesome never fails to hit the spot. Twitter user @solucity shared some hot takes about the great game of hockey ended up landing him at a Blues game. He'd go on to become a superfan, and we can't blame him.

When this guy complained over a taco, the owner got realistic with him about what it costs to sell one taco for a dollar and change, especially when you bring credit card charges into it. Sometimes folks have unreasonable demands, and these entitled people need to abandon their nonsense. For a real good one, here's an entitled mom who lashed out when her babysitter got a better job.

Twitter user @isabelzawutan started a viral Twitter thread that inspired many who have worked in the service industry, to share their experiences fielding customers' most ridiculous demands. Some people seem to believe that customer service existing grants them the ability to turn their brains off when entering a store. That is not how it works.

There are a lot of reasons for failure at someone's one job. Sometimes it's negligence or laziness. Sometimes someone is in the process of learning something new. Sometimes an otherwise competent person has to do the same job with no resources and in a quarter of the time. Sometimes it's the profound ability to ignore common sense. That one is our favorite. It's the main force behind design fails that didn't go as planned.

Tumblr has a never ending interest in mythical creatures, and naturally, people are inclined to ask difficult questions. Since centaurs aren't a real thing, people just kind of use their imaginations, general concensus, math and doodles to get to the bottom of things. For another interesting one, here's the time a doctor on twitter asked where you would defibrillate a centaur.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share the biggest plot holes they've ever seen. For many of us this thread will hit close to home. We've all had that one movie or moment out of our lives, where the various factors just didn't add up. Something was noticeably amiss. These plot holes demand more of an explanation. We need answers!

Yeah, Mondays are stupid. Most of us have to go back to work and deal with with our idiot bosses, horribly boring coworkers, demanding clients, and irrational customers. Whether you're dealing with a hangover or just the dread of another finished weekend, even a normal Monday isn't a good day. To put things in perspective, here is some misfortune, failure and general chaos to make your probably regular day seem a little better while you're on the toilet at work.
