It's a well documented phenomenon, and it's weird every single time. When the frames per second of a camera match the revolutions per minute of a rotor just perfectly, that bad boy looks like it ain't moving at all. So here's a helicopter floating into the sky like a glitching video game.

Guy Muds Himself Out Of Unfair Rental Charge

 It's the worst feeling when a company tries to screw you over with a fraudulent fee and just expects you to pay it to make the problem (they created) go away. That's why it's so satisfying to see people push back against unfairness in any way they can, like this guy who got hounded for trivial debt and sent them a dime or this guy who battled a store owner who wouldn't change his phone number.

Ominous Signs That Pump Up The Creepiness

Sure, some creepy signs can ruin the mood, but reading a sign that says "beware of flaming sinkhole" is a whole lot more convenient than falling into one and having all of your clothes burned off while your crush watches and laughs. Just kidding, you'd probably just burn to death. Anyway, the lesson is that we all have something to gain from terrifying signs that speak the language of fear.

People's Brilliant Ideas That Were Dumb Upon Review

It could be caused by inebriation, tiredness or just our own lack of mental faculties, but we get bad ideas. Sometimes our ideas are phenomenal, but that's only because we've just "invented" something that already exists. As stupid as our brilliant thoughts are, we can all have faith that even a stupid thing we invent could be used for something other than its intended purpose.

Tumblr Thread on Statistics Is a Necessary Dumbness Test

Math is hard for some folks on tumblr, but sometimes they really get into it, like the time they did the math on forging a literal blood sword. It's super common to see a headline along the lines of "smoking drywall dust increases risk of boneitis by 300%" which sounds extremely scary. But that number only means something if you know the potential boneitis risks of drywall smoking in the first place. We're not super good at math, but if the risk is only .05% and an increase of 300% raises it to .2%, just go ahead and smoke all the drywall dust you want.

don't smoke drywall dust. Also boneitis is a fictional disease from Futurama.

Brilliant Moves of Highly Variable Effectiveness

It doesn't feel very good to be outsmarted. But at at the same time, it's worth having a chance to be the one doing the outsmarting. All we can really do is hedge our bets and try to be the outsmarter more often than the outsmarted. Of course it's often impossible to tell when you've been outsmarted, so maybe we're all just a bunch of fumbling rubes. For some brilliance in the form of bold shenanigans, here are some mad lads who made the world their big briny oyster.

Bride Asks Shower Guests To Ship Gifts To House, Guests Disregard Request

It sounds like this bride was pretty dang clear about exactly what she wanted/needed when it came to the gift giving process for her bridal shower. Basically, by having all of her bridal shower guests actually present their gifts to her in person, she ended up having to decide whether she'd shell out some serious dough for shipping those gifts to her place in California, or returning all the gifts and then repurchasing them. Both of those routes aren't particularly appealing. Thus, it's no surprise that a fair number of people in the comments section were in agreement that the bride wasn't in the wrong for not being too stoked about the whole situation. 

For some more wedding drama check out this post about a best man who roasted a bridezilla, and the drama that ensued

Tumblr Thread: The Plant World Is Actually Nuts

The plant world is bonkers. There are battalions of mint and strawberry bushes waging war against one another with an unnerving level of strategy involved. Naturally, as Tumblr so often does, this particular thread ends up escalating even further into the nightmarish land of the Kudzu vine. It turns out the Kudzu vine is basically a massive, green, alien life force that's here to literally smother everything to death. If you're looking for some more gold from the world of Tumblr check out this recent thread we shared about a tragically misunderstood, nice guy named Vinny.

Tumblr Thread: The Tragically Misunderstood Nice Guy Named Vinny

This is just the kind of imaginative Tumblr thread that keeps us going. You have a wonderful human being named Vinny who just so happens to carry with him a whole lot of mannerisms that could be easily misinterpreted by suspicious onlookers. Honestly, this is the kind of character that could totally be in a TV show or a movie. Like, for instance Vinny could've integrated himself seamlessly into the infamous show, Brooklyn 99.

The Dumbest Things That Smart People Have Done

Just because someone has the "book smarts" doesn't mean that they're not staggeringly clueless in other parts of life that require nothing more than some common sense. It can be beneficial for the world's brainiacs to have their egos put in check every now and again. Otherwise you run the risk of having to deal with some people that are sold on the naive idea that they know everything of importance in this world. That's just not an outlook that's good for anyone.

What a way to make use of a water hazard. It may have been a single shot 10 years ago, but damn if that's not a beautiful sight to see. The "ghost bawl" will live in our hearts and memories as some of the slickest putt-putt action that there has ever been.

Things People Only Understood When They Got Older

When we're younger, we never think of ourselves as future old people. When you're 19, sleeping two hours a night and being an idiot, it's extremely hard to imagine yourself as someone with back pain and a lawn that these DAMN KIDS WON'T STOP PLAYING ON. It can happen suddenly. Most people can point to the moment they realized they were old. At least as people age they get to pride themselves on knowing things young people wouldn't get.
