This guy had just finished installing a new battery on the ol' golf cart before realizing the accelerator was open. Usually the universe gives us a break between projects, but not so this time.

Smart business people all around the world have realized that there's money to be made recreating products from well known brands, especially when it's changed just enough to avoid any of those pesky licensing fees. How could that plan go wrong? The results make up some highly absurd off brand and bootleg products.
Why do we get joy out of seeing things in other things? Is it because we want to imagine we're surrounded by friendly objects? Is it because it's like a fun visual puzzle? Maybe it's because we're just wired to see faces? It's very apparent in these inanimate objects with a whole lot of personality.
In a true display of entitled folks with their outlandish demands, here's a dude who had a website made for him for free, but was absolutely livid the deal didn't come with free hosting for life. Stuff like this just makes you realize that however low you set the bar, someone will take it upon themselves to smash through it on their way further down. It's hard to avoid guffawing at the spectacle of these Entitled folks and their bold demands.
Interacting with a dysfunctional institution is an interesting thing. To see something so big not work correctly is a sight to behold. Whether it's working at a place that inspires a "screw this i'm out" moment, or somewhere that's so bad up front that you get a real red flag interview, or just being a customer at a place so unprofessional it's shocking, we can pretty safely assume that it's better to spend your time in businesses that actually function.
Navigating a bureaucracy can be stressful and brimming with pointlessness, especially when dealing with someone who's in a position to make dubious claims about databases and such. Seeing a stupid opportunity, this person used the rules to get themselves in the door. Here are some more great, stupid loopholes that worked.
There are few companies where management actually knows what's going on. This person had a nearly unusable computer that doubled as a server, and since no one wanted to actually do anything about it, the company felt the pain for the next long while. Weird how some stuff just slips through the cracks. In an opposite but similar vein, here's a guy who improved company efficiency but had that disbanded by management. For an IT triumph, here's a time when management illegally banned overtime pay but IT got it all back.
With just a few simple strategies, you too could look like a moron and ruin your life. Dumb and bad life pro tips will help you go out of your way to antagonize people, live a horrible life, and be sad all the time. There's no reason to not streamline your life with a few bad life pro tips to not do. What's stopping you? Other than decent judgement.
Most of us will do whatever it takes to avoid doing our actual jobs. For some, it's almost a challenge to see how much we can get away with not doing. Our drive to not do any actual work leads to some impressive "not my job" moments of professional ineptitude. Toilets get installed sideways, billboards get crammed with typos, and things go awry in these "not my job" moments of professional failure.
Let it be no surprise that kids are weird and dumb. Not only do they not know things and have bad ideas, they can also be extremely creepy and weird. We remember all the stupid and psychopathic crap we did as kids, and acknowledge that it's best to keep your distance from this unaccountable and idiotic group of people. There are more than enough moments to confirm that kids are weird and dumb.
Every day it becomes more apparent that some folks live in a fantasy land where they can just flout the conventions of decency and demand free stuff. Entitled people with their absurd audacity will expect people to work for them for free, try to abuse the trust of strangers, and throw tantrums when they don't get what they want. There's no good way to deal with entitled people and their laughable boldness.
We know that big movie studios stick to classic money making formulas, and that can lead to bland, predictable movies. But it looks like it's way worse when it comes to advertising for those movies. It's interesting, but a little disheartening seeing how predictable human behavior is, especially when it comes to entertainment. It's like they said, you can't unsee it. If anyone thought this was enough, Tumblr went hard analyzing The Incredibles to oblivion. Tumblr has a thing for analyzing movies, like this hyper analysis of Davy Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean. Here's a tumblr user who ranked the marvel movies based on how many trains were in them, and here's tumblr's dicussion of the visual affects of Jurassic Park.
Why should we be so obsessed with being completely factually accurate when being technically accurate is at least half as good? These technically accurate moments that aren't exactly wrong serve as a guide for what we can get away with saying without being totally inaccurate. Sure, it might completely miss the point and make you look like an idiot, but you'll still be right in your own, little way.
One doesn't have to go rooting around in history books long to find something extremely weird about our collective past. There are too many history moments that are too dumb to seem real already, and we keep making more every day. If there's one reason to get into history, it's so you can get these sweet historical memes to become one with time.
There are some people and jobs out there that it just feel too good to get away from. In this case it was a tyrannical boss who flouted the rules and tried to make someone work after firing them. Quitting a frustrating situation and having a "screw this, I'm out" moment can lead us to reevaluating ourselves and moving on to something better. Bosses can suck, like this incompetent manager who forbid overtime and had it totally backfire.
There's no question that a lot of craftsmanship and creativity went into these skillful creations of dubious taste. It's just that they're also kind of also weird and scary. It takes a specific type of person to want to make a 20-foot peeing dachshund sculpture on the front of a building, but the world is...better... for it? At least there's no question that questionable taste and skill go hand in hand.
