Yay, another shining Tumblr gem that managed to put a smile on our faces. Tumblr is filled to the brim with totally random and hilarious nuggets. Sometimes, even some cursed images that are strangely hard to not look at. In this case though, we get to enjoy some nice, bubbly, wholesome art. 

Ah, yes, another sweet case of the choosing beggar waving their entitlement around, and in this case, getting their comeuppance. It's nice when someone involved in a negotiation with a choosing beggar tacks on the responsibility of serving the choosing beggar up a nice reality check. It seems like this particular reality check still might've soared right over their heads. Oh well. 

As long as the choosing beggars continue to present themselves, it's up to the rest of the world to serve them up reality checks, free of charge. This particular impatient choosing beggar experienced a nice wakeup moment, after pestering an artist to rush a free drawing, after they already received one free drawing. The artist absolutely delivered. 

These influencers can be a real handful to deal with. 

Ah, yes, another case of the choosing beggar resorting to threats, after being told that they couldn't get their way for free. This choosing beggar wanted that drawing for free, and when that request was denied, they figured it was a good time to break out the threats. There's no negotiating with that kind of dramatic entitlement. 

For some stupid reason, people think they can bully artists into drawing stuff for them. Seriously, this happens a lot, like this artist who trolled entitled fans who asked for free drawings. That said, every entitled individual with unreasonable demands is an opportunity to make a jerk look dumb.

Alright, this is downright, straight up, all around impressive. And the final result was good enough that you could tell the trees were pretty happy. Tumblr users are a creative bunch, doing stuff like writing an alien invasion story where the aliens are fought off by wildlife or expounding on wacky historical facts. Seriously, following along with MS Paint is brilliant and highly commendable.

Thomas Romain is a French artist who takes inspiration from his kids, adapting their own characters into incredibly elaborate and creative pieces of art. It's pretty cool where a kid's imagination can go, and with the technical skill of an artist applied makes it that much better.

According to this thread, Disney's strict policy that grants them exclusive ownership of any of their employees artwork also gives them the rights to any of the filth that those artists also end up creating as well. We hope Disney has a smut vault/porn cave, but it seems unlikely whether or not they would officially confirm the existence of such a thing. Tumblr has come through with some weird cartoon lore, like this dark thread on Garfield. Tumblr users also share some pretty incredible experiences, like this pizza deliverer who made a list of all the insane people she met.

We like learning how our favorite movies achieved their astounding visual effects, but sound effects can make or break the tone of a movie. It's pretty cool to think that it's someone's job to figure out what it would sound like for a mooshy robot body to be pushed through metal bars. What's even more interesting is that they decided it would sound like dog food sliding out of a can.

In terms of choosing beggars this ableist takes the cake for being a terrible display of a human being. Upon learning that the artist has autism, the choosing beggar angrily demands a refund on the grounds that the artist has autism. You've got to be kidding me! 

This one makes zero sense, Elon Musk. Was the intention with this series of incendiary tweets to get people riled up? That seems like the only possibility, cause people were bound to get all kinds of fired up. Don't credit artists...okay then Elon Musk, okay then. 

Old but gold and also weird. Last year a facebook post of this strange conversation featured an apparently very defensive James Barrett's wife taking over JB's facebook account to deliver a prickly message to someone whose only crime was planning to draw vegetables. Anyway the lack of context, unbridled aggression and overt weirdness caused it to be shared thousands of times. Plus, it spawned a bunch of memes. It became the viral sensation known as "James Barret's Wife"

Actors, athletes and artists get a buttload of attention, but some of the best stories about them are when they don't. Sometimes these people didn't even know they were talking to a celebrity. Did you know Ben Affleck is into StarCraft? For some stranger celebrity encounters, check these out.
