Hilarious Times People Just Plain Went For It
Every now and then, everybody gets an idea that's too good to pass up. When opportunity knocks, it's no good to let it slip through one's fingers.
However, that's not to say that those opportunities don't carry any risks. But for these people who went all in and kept their eyes on the prize, the risk was worth it.
That's an interesting theory

After coming across this unusual bench in a train station, Reddit user AJAX1814 decided that it was built for people relieved to finally have room for their magnificent posteriors.
However, that fun idea is probably nowhere near the truth. As far as anyone can tell, it's a child's seat on a bench that's otherwise adult-sized. Sorry to disappoint.
They're not the only ones who can misinterpret the world

Some people love trolling Flat Earthers with a picture of dinosaurs being thrown from a flat model of the planet by a meteor, but even great bits get old after a while.
If they want to insist the Earth has no curvature no matter what, then others can pretend tornadoes are just a very unruly stand for the globe. Seems fair.
There are some mixed messages here

It's not often that a road sign encourages people to speed up when there's a hazard in play, but that seems to be what's happening here.
Although most drivers roll their eyes at signs like these, this one must feel like they can go a little faster as a treat. Who cares if it doesn't make sense?
He's playing a dangerous game

Normally, that cat's claws would be in exactly the position to make most guys stand like statues until the cat mercifully loses interest.
Yet, not only does this mad lad tempt the cat to scratch down on the most sensitive area it can with a fish, but that fish is probably how it got into this position in the first place. Is he a masochist?
This person has the right idea

It may be pretty gruesome at times, but 1999's The Mummy holds up well. And, of course, how can anyone turn down Brendan Fraser's boyish charms?
That said, if we measured our obligations in whether they were better than watching The Mummy, we'd never get anything done. It's a good thing they didn't have The Mummy when they were making it.
She was definitely rolling her eyes at this part

Although it's common for kids to bluff an answer like this on their homework when they're guessing at the answer, that answer isn't usually right.
While this young girl may not appreciate this question, it's actually preparing her for life. The working world is such that she'll have to entertain silly questions all the time.
Now it's Regina who's been personally victimized

Those wondering how this woman put together such a perfect Regina George costume one Halloween will find the answer isn't worth it. The brace is real because she was genuinely hit by a car.
However, she wasn't letting that get her down. If nothing else, it gave her an idea she could laugh all the way to physiotherapy about.
What a shame, even the cryptids can't keep it classy

Visitors in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, might come across an unusual statue of a legendary figure known as the Mothman. But one visitor's interest wasn't purely paranormal.
Apparently, somebody noticed that the artist behind this statue gave the Mothman quite the posterior. So this prankster decided to accentuate its goods with a "tramp stamp."
What even is this?

At a flea market in Pasadena, California, someone presented the wicker basket they made and the little friend they've got sitting on top of it. Well, either that or it's using the basket as a toilet.
Unfortunately, what it is is about as unclear as what it's supposed to be doing. But while it looks creepy, there's something about it that makes it tempting to buy. Dark magic, maybe?
What's their ship called, the McNugget Falcon?

Those who were wondering what Grimace was supposed to be all along are in for a real treat because, thanks to this bizarrely impressive paint job, he's a Wookie now.
It's hard to tell what in McDonaldland is causing them such a disturbance, however. Unless Darth Jack Box or Darth King is around, it must be Jar Jar Hamburglar.
Those must get in the way

When people see someone with really long nails, they often wonder how that person can comfortably use the bathroom. Not only is that also true here, but where do they wear these?
It's pretty easy to see a dentist getting a kick out of these, but it's hard to think of any other occasions where this is appropriate attire. Don't forget to brush your nails!
It's just discomforting for some reason

Although the congealed contents of a can of Spaghetti-Os can look pretty unappetizing, they don't get any more aesthetically pleasing when they're turned into a candle.
That said, it only looks weird if this is actual wax. If it's somehow made from the real thing, burnt Spaghetti-Os doesn't seem like it would make for a popular scent.
What are they so smug about?

Look, it's hard enough to buy games without getting judgmental looks from the cashier. The last thing any of us need is the store itself looking like someone just disagreed with them on the internet.
At least their judgment is silent. It takes a bit of the sting out of things when they can't say a sentence that starts with "Um, actually."
"This is the name of a department where I work. How do I give people directions to it without getting fired?"

To any fun-wreckers out there, it's probably true that nobody intended anything controversial with this sign. But why else would the zones in a building be called "neighborhoods?"
As Reddit user Salami__Tsunami put it, "This is the name of a department where I work. How do I give people directions to it without getting fired?"
The greeting card everybody wants!

While walking through Walmart, Reddit user SCNED came across this greeting card that very cleverly explained why this dog is so insecure. It's a bit of racy fun, but the more people saw it, the harder it was not to ask what occasion this was for.
Apparently, it's a birthday card. But rather than "Happy birthday, feel inadequate," the inside says, "I hope your birthday beats expectations."
Even hype beasts might turn this down

While it's true that fashion often isn't practical, this seems more like a design for a weapon than a shoe. Even long feet don't come to a point like this.
Just because "Star Destroyer" would probably be a good name for a trendy shoe, that doesn't mean they actually have to look like the big ships from Star Wars.
No wonder he looks so awkward

Unless whoever made this sign is an innocent little cinnamon roll, they had to have known exactly why everyone would snicker at this. Spare a thought for the poor employee, though.
After all, that's not a face that's annoyed by all the bad jokes. That's the face of someone who's legitimately afraid customers will take this as a challenge.
McDonaldLand has a bloodier history than it seems

People often mistake this painting for D-Day, but the ships look too old. Instead, it seems this is supposed to be spoofing Washington's crossing of the Delaware.
It's unclear whether that makes the Hamburglar Benedict Arnold, but it explains a lot to learn that this painting is in England. Still sore about the American Revolution over 250 years later, huh?
That's some serious commitment

Some folks will snicker and call this Scion model a toaster, but only one person has the courage to commit to it this hard. Note that they even added the labels on a toaster.
What's courageous about that? Well, there doesn't really appear to be a license plate, so they're taking a risk. Granted, how many cars like this could possibly be on the road?
This is one expensive gimmick

According to Reddit user upvoatsforall, this custom sink costs $2,000, and it's very hard to see why anybody would want it. The gimmick is well-executed, but that's it.
Could they really not think of anything else that might actually work as a sink? This is going to cost more than $2,000 once all the broken glass is added up.
Believe it or not, this wasn't on purpose

At some point, everybody gets the inclination to make a silly face in a picture. It's the bane of moms everywhere, but it's true and guaranteed to mess up some nice photos.
However, this isn't what happened here. As the person in this photo said, "So Costco apparently doesn't re-take membership card photos if you sneeze."
This doesn't seem like an official sponsorship

Apparently, this man custom-builds ridiculous car concepts and drives them with aplomb. This giant shopping cart is one of his more inventive ones, but it seems like a deathtrap on the highway.
It turns out this hasn't stopped him, and despite this being the easiest car in the world to describe, neither have the police. They must think they're being pranked with every report.
It's comforting to know we're not the only ones

Everyone struggles with procrastination sometimes, and it seems that one library in the Canadian city of Winnipeg, Manitoba, is doing its part. That's not by offering books on the subject but by procrastinating themselves.
Still, it feels good to know that these are empty shelves of solidarity. And appropriately, they put them up a week late.
Not so scary anymore, huh?

Of all the things that could be turned into something adorable, the last thing anyone would have expected would be the 1973 horror masterpiece, The Exorcist.
And yet, it seems even demonic lesions and vomit can be cute when they're made of yarn. How did the star of our nightmares become an adorable little scamp?
At least they're consistent about it

When people get overbearing about their religion, it's not uncommon to slyly remind them that they're wearing mixed fabrics, which the Bible prohibits. This church saw that coming.
That little checkmate is no longer possible, as this church has rejected satin as much as they rejected Satan. And there's no way he's who they meant all along. No way at all.
They're going to have to be more specific

Since this person likely isn't expressing their love for the smell of campfires, it's hard to tell what they want Elon Musk fired from.
Did they take one look at the cybertruck and decide he was done at Tesla? If it's not that, are they hoping he finally wakes up and sells Twitter?
