Talk about a creative way to go about ensuring someone gets their lost wallet returned to them. Every now and again it's nice to have the pleasant reminder that the world has its fair share of considerate, awesome human beings. 

You can't knock people for their hustle, even when that hustle is trying to re-brand a useless 70-year-old couch as "vintage." Okay, maybe you can knock them a little bit. People will create and find some strange and dumb junk and immediately think that someone might pay top dollar for it. At least some folks have a sense of humor about it.

People will try to sell anything that isn't nailed to the floor, and sometimes they manage to pry that junk of the floor and sell it anyway. A lot of weird stuff goes down on facebook marketplace and craigslist, like this mistaken person who thought they found a stray cat. Here's any manner of wild junk people posted to get a dollar.

Whether it's a Dorito full of screws, an unfinished meal, a sofa made of crushed doll heads or a stolen port-a-potty, people will still try to make a buck out of it online. Craigslist, Ebay, and trading pages are home of some of the weirdest business propositions and posts that you can come across. If it's dumb junk, then someone will try to sell it online.

When most people find themselves with garbage, they throw it away. But a select charismatic few of us will look at a broken hammer and say to themselves "someone will pay top dollar for this vintage, fixer-upper hammer." They will go on to try to sell dumb junk online. Does any of this unusual stuff ever sell? Who knows. At least someone tried.

Someone's always trying to make a buck. So why not try to sell bizarre stuff online? If it's old and broken, that just means it's vintage. Is it a horrible failed art project? Well that just means it's unique, baby. Five hundred dollars sounds good, right? There's no limit to the weird and dumb stuff people will try to sell online.

Most of us understand a tongue-in-cheek reference from a well known satirical news network, but sadly, there are those among us who just don't get the joke, or worse, believe the absurdity and pass it off as actual news. It's sadly too common to see a sorely mistaken person not get satire, like an aunt who actually believes scientists have made a voice activated grapefruit.

It's like a mix of creatively repurposed garbage, disturbing art projects, and stuff that's probably not legal or physically possible to sell. Whether it's intended as a joke, cheap attempt to hustle, or get rid of odd garbage, people are trying to sell some weird stuff online.

People absolutely love leaving extremely critical, sometimes untruthful reviews of stores and restaurants. Sometimes it's even a lie made up by their competition. Business owners will go to bat online to defend their honor, like this guy who leveled with a customer who complained over buying a single dollar taco. Sometimes customers are lying to save face and the business brings in some critical details, like this tattoo parlor that had an epic response for an entitled customer.

Anyone who has ever had to navigate customer service with a massive company knows that getting a specific demand through can be frustrating, especially when a few mistakes have already been made. Sometimes when you buy stuff online, what you purchase is not what you get.

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. 

We love to honor those folks out there that keep themselves busy by upholding the truth online, and calling out the dumbest of the lying liars. There's always going to be a soft place in our hearts for bullshitters getting outed. 

You may have seen sponsored ads for random doodads in your various feeds from time to time. Since online stores will sell everything and anything, people find themselves seeing ads for stuff that you uh.. normally wouldn't see ads for. Not just sex stuff, but strange products with almost no discernable use, or at least something that seems like a very questionable purchase for 3 dollars. The world of online shopping can be strange, with people dropping creative reviews for stuff like massagers, or funny reviews for just about anything else.

For some reason, people can't stop lying on the internet. Whether it's a scam, spreading BS information that they wish was true, or straight up making crap up for revenge, there's some imaginary incentive a lot of people have to be dishonest to strangers. Sometimes these liars get caught while trying to sell their lies to the world, and the results make us froth with justice juice.

In our world of buyer beware, all you have is your wits keeping you from falling prey to manipulative and terrible products and ads. It's even harder when you're shopping online, since not seeing a physical version of the product will pit your expectations vs reality. These people definitely felt the pain of misleading advertising and the results are pretty damn funny.
