There's no denying it: there's a whole lot of inanimate objects that look like other stuff. Among those car bumpers that look like the faces of presidents and clouds that look like mythical creatures, there is a darker, more sultry variety of object: those few but bold fruits and vegetables that look like someone's lunchmeat. It's not a potato's fault for being a total smokeshow, but it's no one else's for noticing.

Living in a remote place is a great way to not have access to fresh fruits and vegetables, and this is wild. Twitter user KataraPiujuq showed some of the crazy high prices for fruit and vegetables, and how it's a bit of an issue. Just seeing a bag of oranges go for 20 bucks is enough to make anyone frustrated.

So like does this guy want his wife to make two dinners every night or something? Seems like if he doesn't want to do any cooking, he might have to learn how to grit through the pain and learn how to eat a vegetable. It's dietary drama like this that harkens back to this uncle who couldn't handle a vegan meal at a wedding and demanded a meat one.
Mark is out here hooking it up with great advice on how to grow eight different kinds of vegetables at home, in a hurry. He manages to crack some jokes throughout the informational presentation as well. Love it.
Twitter user @BailyCarlin started a thread about what fruits and veggies people think they could throw the farthest. This is no laughing matter. There is a lot at stake here. The very worth of fruits and vegetables as flying projectiles is being contested. I'm thinking an apple would have the best shot.

Mr. Broccoli really missed his opportunity to capitalize on having a platform to discuss climate change. Instead we just watch a moron use the platform to roleplay a vegetable. Yikes.
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"

Having kids is hard. I don't personally have any, but I was a kid once, so I can only imagine what my parents went through. Children have their own agenda, which includes eating candy for dinner and complaining if asked to help. As a parent, getting angry at your children probably isn't the most effective way to mould them into good human beings. But there's this thing called reverse psychology, and it's amazing. After reading the following posts from AskReddit, I realized that my own parents duped me with reverse psychology. Sneaky... and clever. Well done, parents.

His credibility with his mother just went down the drain.
After all your mother’s done for you, this is how you repay her? The woman who cooks for you, cleans for you, puts a roof over your shoulder, makes sure you don’t end up dead in a ditch somewhere, this is how you repay her? By sticking a leek in her sink and screaming “there’s a leak in the sink,” so she frantically searches for water escaping her pipes. The ol' leek in the sink routing? You know how expensive water damage can be. It's not funny. For shame.
Good for this woman for standing up for herself and beating her son with a root vegetable. Ingrate.
