Tumblr is the gift that just keeps on giving. It's a place that celebrates all of our strangest thoughts, fandoms, obsessions, observations, etc. You haven't really lived yet until you've fallen with a reckless abandon down a Tumblr rabbit hole or two. For instance, this Tumblr thread about how dwarves have hyper intelligent beards. That's a good starting place. 

This guy might be looking to meet someone special, but he is clearly already in touch with his inner dad. The dad joke is strong in this post, indeed. Check out some more witty and stupid jokes that are technically correct over here.

You meet a lot of interesting people in life, and you get to learn more about them if they're your coworkers. Sometimes you learn that people can be mindbogglingly lazy, mean, inconsiderate, or just impossible to be around. Sometimes for better or worse, people do not give a heck and in the workplace that can lead to some wonderfully unprofessional "not my job" moments. For some more work stuff, here are stories of people who worked smarter, not harder.

Someone on AskReddit got a fun thread going about the totally random things that folks recall from childhood. Some of these might hit close to home. It's funny how unexplainable memories stick with us as we grow older and continue on walking through life. 

It's probably happened to you. You're holding two things with incredibly different purposes. Maybe it's a phone and a banana. You're on autopilot and prone to brain farts so you're not thinking. You take a bite and realize "oh crap I just bit my phone." Then you think that's funny and want to tell someone so you take your banana off its charger to text your friend. For some more mistakes here are some classic facepalm moments of dumbness.

Fully grasping any language is no easy matter. It's tough. And the English language is filled to the brim with difficulties it doesn't get enough credit for. Especially those strange spellings that just don't match up with how we envision the word being spelled, due to how it sounds. These attempts at the English language just crashed and burned in a pit of fail. 

Sometimes dogs get stuck and need a hand. There's no limit to the precarious and sometimes trivial situations dogs can find themselves stuck in, but we can't tell how embarrassed these dogs are, if at all. Some seem to be all too aware of their situations, while others seem to think it's just business as usual. For more dogs being dumb and weird, here are some dogs in awkward sleeping positions.

So it started with a goofy observation on ants getting your attention, and then someone gave it some more thought and re-characterized this whole thing as you taking on the God role in an ant war. A simple story prompt or small idea can spin into a whole thing, like this Tumblr thread about wildlife fighting off an alien invasion or this short story about lies making scars. For short bursts of creative weirdness  here a bunch of Tumblr gems to keep the day moving.

A virtual tour of this house reveals some weird and amazing stuff. And for $159,000 could this even be real? It looks like they have a main area that's some kind of Gothic, space inspired medieval man cave, with extra rooms becoming a space theme, island theme, and what is that, a lab facility? It's nothing at all like this listing for the gaudiest house you've ever seen.

Most of us have wished we could be someone who doesn't give a heck and publicly confront a horrible boss. This person worked for an unfair manager in what must have been a murderous slog, but they got their mic drop moment in the end. For another bad boss story, here's on about a new boss who tried to play alpha.

Tumble users are one part creative chaos, one part boredom, and one part sleep deprivation. Throw in some extremely specific pop culture references and you've got a recipe for some hilarious and totally random Tumblr gems. You never know what people are gonna pull out of their heads and spit out as totally random Tumblr gems to occupy existing.

While we don't always have the intended answers, we can at least be smart asses about things. Technically correct jokes have the benefit of making the teller feel smart while there's not really any new information needed. These silly puns and clever jokes are technically accurate, so you can't say they're completely wrong.

The brain works really hard to make sense of the constant stream of information coming at it, and for the most part it does a pretty good job. That said, a small shift in perspective can turn unassuming situations into double-take inducing photos of intriguing perspective. Your brain is doing its best, but at times it's name match against double-take causing images of skewed perspective.

Puns are a lot like a party guest with a guitar: usually not welcome, but excellent when deployed appropriately. We can't really tell if we love or hate puns, but there's certainly a time and place for them. If you're in need of more wordplay, here's a smattering of puns to fill the pun void.
