We can't really explain it. Maybe it's instinct, subconscious reasoning, survivor's bias, luck, or the intervening will of the universe. Sometimes people get a spidey-sense moment that ends up saving their own ass. Here are more times people trusted a gut feeling and avoided disaster.

It's the medical question we've all been wondering about. For the sake of wondering out loud, this doctor asked where you'd have to defibrillate a centaur. It's at least fun to know that doctors can still be weird. For medical stuff, here are stories of the dumbest things medical professionals had to explain to people.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share the very best of their useless facts. Never know when you might need to break one of these out at the next social gathering, to break the ice for everyone else. Can't quite put our finger on it, but there's just something so interesting about useless facts.

It can be really frustrating to realize your boss is a goddamn moron. Some bosses are just good at hiding the fact that they have no idea what they're doing, but some are not quite so good. Don't get us wrong, many bosses are competent, but these ones really let the stupid cat out of the idiot bag.

Ah, good old Tinder. It's like people get on the app to bust out the very best and worst of their pickup lines, just to see how badly things can go. And even then, sometimes Tinder users actually find themselves defying the odds and getting somewhere in the process.

This guy asked the people of Reddit whether or not he was in the wrong for hiding his inheritance money from his girlfriend and her family. The tough part about this particular predicament is that they had a kid together. A fair number of people are suggesting that the guy should try to be transparent when it comes to those finances.

We're back at it again with a fresh collection of people getting absolutely crushed by words. Sometimes people just nail it with the comeback or the insult to such an extent that there's really no coming back from it. A whole lot of this wreckage could've been avoided if people didn't act a fool to begin with.

Whether it's an ungrateful kid who wanted something more expensive for Christmas, a low-balling deal-hunter who won't take no for an answer, or just a straight up stranger demanding free crap, the world has an excessive amount of entitled folks who need to leave and take their attitudes with them.

Ah, good old Tumblr. It's a maze of people getting real meticulous and obsessive when it comes to overanalyzing movies, tv shows, and other facets of life. Never know what kind of wisdom you might come across while you're exploring the ins and outs of Tumblr.

At least the "Cats" movie is bringing on a tidal wave of hilarious commentary. People can't seem to help themselves when it comes to poking fun at all the strange and absurd moments from the film. There was a whole lot to work with.

This guy shared a powerful story on Twitter about an experience with his buddy, where he ended up having to spend the night after having one too many drinks. From there, it ends up being a wholesome tale of his friend being a genuinely great dude, who didn't feel the need to defend his actions just because of what society might expect him to do. Good stuff!

This guy tells the story of how he managed to keep a cool temper (thanks to his wife), and go on to outsmart what was arguably his worst customer of all time. Fair to say that this choosing beggar got so destroyed by this pro revenge that there's no way he'll think about trying his scam on someone else anytime soon!

We remember being idiot kids and doing stupid crap like wasting an employee's time on a joke order. That said, the humor is really lost once you've realized you've just spent money for a joke no one even payed any attention to. Here's a fun workplace prank of an employee who gets fake fired every time an awful customer shows up.

Maybe this driver was having a particularly bad day, maybe the box was heavy, but what seems clear is that this guy really doesn't care. Actually it's almost as if he hates the box and wants it to suffer. Word has it the package contained computer parts.

They say that that nothing can be certain except death and taxes, but it seems like there's always something trashy going on somewhere. You can trust that someone will be acting selfishly, be it stealing dinner plates for no reason, or leaving a futon on the highway. Trashy moments are a regrettable fact of life.

In an effort to try to recognize everything at a glance, eyes sometimes throw information at us that doesn't exactly make sense. Strange perspective can give us things that shouldn't exist, for instance, a valley inside of a fence post, or a cat with a human butt.

This guy made a grave mistake. And that mistake was one of him trying to tell a lady asking for money that he didn't speak English, while he very well did the whole time. It's tough to pull off the whole "I don't speak your language" thing when you're literally speaking their language right back to them.
