It's a terrible day to have eyes, folks. We can easily forget that the world is filled to the brim with cringeworthy sights that have an uncanny knack for making our insides squirm, if we unfortunately happen to see them. That being said, there's always been a strange element with cringeworthy images, in that it's hard to look away from them!

Pavlovian conditioning can be a powerful thing. Just by sheer association, pets can learn very specific things, like how this smart dog learned the dinner criteria. Some pets take it a step further, like this dog who figured out how to herd a lawn roomba. Pets can learn a lot of very specific things. Usually it has to do with treats.
The internet has a bunch of funny stuff floating around it, a decent amount of wholesome stuff, but what it really has a crap-ton of is bizarre junk. There is no shortage of weird stuff from the crevices of the internet, from trippy images to strange goings-ons. It could be a cat at a weird angle, or it could be a goose getting arrested.
Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about truck stop and interstate employees' most bizarre stories from their days on the job. It shouldn't come as too much of a surprise that those long, winding, dark roads are filled to the brim with all kinds of unexpected characters. Truck stop employees can really be put through the rounder. As will happen in these kinds of threads, we've got plenty of accounts from people that didn't work at truck stops, but were just passing through. That story about the mayfly hatch madness is something else.
Tumblr users banded together to illustrate just how terrifying angels would look, using nothing more than historical imagery. There doesn't seem to be anything about these that scream, "angelic." Nah, getting more of a monster vibe than anything else.
Check out some more fun from Tumblr with this thread about how death isn't a bad guy.
The one thing that makes you feel dumber than making a stupid mistake is when you make that mistake for a seriously long time. In this case, this person found some "snacks" they liked, and since the packaging wasn't obvious, they bought it again and again. A lot of people realize obvious things too late, but that doesn't make it much less embarrassing.
You could call it narcissism, a compulsion to brag, or just a lack of self awareness, but some absurd people think they're total geniuses and they absolutely must let everyone know online. Methods include saying you know how the universe works, bragging about being an "early reader" and completely missing the point of a joke. There are a good amount of ridiculous people out there who think they're geniuses.
Most people have a decent sense of when they're wasting someone else's time, but a select few of us don't care, and probably love the attention. Here are some entitled folks who made ridiculous demands, whether they be requests for free stuff, absurdly low offers, or completely dumb demands for things that benefit no one but themselves.
You can never be too sure what kind of dumb junk people will try to sell online. It could be a morbid art project or completely obsolete item that's been re-branded as "memorabilia." Either way, it doesn't seem like too many of these folks are gonna get a response to their offer.
Many people have this skewed idea of divine knowledge and love at first sight, like a relationship is supposed to be "meant to be." but sometimes you get hit by a stranger's car and smash through their windshield and right into their heart. Uh, metaphorically. The circumstances that lead to marriage can be funny, wild, and unexpected.
We try to not be superstitious, but sometimes it's hard to notice when certain objects are so deeply associated with consistently unfortunate goings-on. And it doesn't help that this robot looks creepy as hell. For some more strange and interesting tidbits, here are some random golden moments from the world of Tumblr.
Sometimes you can't know exactly how life is going to mess with your day. It could be as small as you forgetting to wear matching shoes, or it could be as big as your car getting completely covered in eel slime. You just can't know what kind of unfortunate moments of failure and chaos could be coming your way.
Sometimes you see a real straight forward warning sign like "don't step over cliff" and you're like "alright that one makes sense." Then sometimes you see one like "bad place" and you're like "alright what the hell happened here?" The one thing that you can accept is that spooky signs mean serious business.
For everything that humans are good at, we can be pretty dumb sometimes. For a lot of people, the process of thinking something is working is more important than it actually working, so we get weird things like unnecessary loading screens and needless weights in headphones. For more intriguing behind-the-scenes work, here are sketchy secrets from various industries.
Back in the old days, some governments threw a few amphetamines into their soldiers' supply kits. This guy might be one of the reasons why they don't do that anymore.
