3. Double Eggs
Hard boiled eggs are delicious. However, imagine cracking one open only to find another miniature egg inside. The worst part is having to peel everything twice.

4. Horror Movie Warning
When we see a red triangle on an object, we immediately know that it’s a caution sign. However, we expect it to be warning us about hazardous waste or a sharp object or something. If you open this box, the sign shows that you will get chased by a person wielding a chainsaw.

5. Incredible Fossil
Not only is this Ammonite fossil extremely well-preserved, but it also comes with a special bonus. Several opals formed inside of it. The beautiful opals match up perfectly with the spirals of the ancient shell.

6. Fruit Face
Slice open this fruit and you’ll find a surprise face in the middle. There are two seeds for the eyes, and below, two big seeds as front teeth. It’s strikingly human-like.

7. Wardrobe Malfunction
It looks like someone must have gotten out of bed in a hurry. The woman accidentally put her top on backwards in the morning. The funniest part was that she had no idea.

8. Friendly Visitor
How exactly does a wild kangaroo end up in a person’s living room? We aren’t entirely sure. All we know is that it’s something that could only happen in The Land Down Under.

9. Child Free Life
Having kids comes with a lot of positives, yet everyone knows that kids aren’t cheap. Sacrificing finances for the sake of a having family isn’t a tradeoff that every couple is willing to make. Some prefer the boatloads of money.

10. Cactus Stuffing
This cactus dog toy comes stuffed with an additional sad cactus inside. That way when the dog inevitably rips the first one open, there is still one more cactus to play with. It’s such a creative idea.

11. Dinner For Three
Some people love their dogs more than is reasonable. We think we would draw the line at bringing a dog to a restaurant in a jacket and feeding it french fries. That’s taking things too far.

12. Miniature Orange
In the center of this orange, a tiny additional orange was discovered. Just for curiosity’s sake, the man decided to peel the tiny orange. He found that it contained an equal amount of tiny slices.

13. Public Reading
Most people go to Apple stores to try out the new tech merchandise. From iPads to iPhones, there are all sorts of cool gadgets to check out. Yet, the young boy in this photo brought a paperback book with him to the store to read instead.

14. Bedroom Guest
Goats are outdoors animals. They belong in a field or in a barn on a farm. On top of a bed is pretty much the last place that a goat should ever be.

15. Misprinted Chapter
It’s pretty common to find a couple of typos when reading a book. Occasionally, an error or two happens. However, what’s not common is finding an entire chapter from a separate book printed in the middle of the text.

16. Baby Fish
This woman went to Petco and bought a fish. She intended on being the mother of only one fish, but she got much more than she bargained for that day. It turns out, the fish that she bought was pregnant!

17. Blocked Camera
This car has a rearview camera on it. The other drivers on the road must not like it very much, as one day, the owner discovered a small action figure taped across it. They went to back up and this is what they saw on the screen.

18. Snacking Student
During a university statistics lecture, one of the students was spotted eating a steak and lobster dinner. A granola bar or something, we could understand. However, lobster is definitely way too fancy for math class.

19. Shark Rock
Despite what it may look like, there is not actually a shark jumping out of the water. Someone just painted the rock to look like the vicious sea creature. It’s shockingly accurate and we bet a lot of swimmers are fooled by it.

22. Canine Graduation
Dogs deserve graduation photos too. Our pets are a part of the family and we don’t want them to feel left out. They should get just as much recognition for their achievements as the humans in the family do.

23. Saving Seats
Most people save seats for their classmates using book bags or coats. However, when you are as flexible as this woman is, there are other potential options. You can do a split across four seats.

You never know what you are going to find inside an electrical panel. Anything is possible when you take off the panel and peek inside. A big angry snake could be waiting to jump at you.

25. Balancing Skills
Balancing a Pringle on your finger out the window while driving is not easy, but with a lot of practice you can do it too. This person’s record was 100 kph. The wind must have been ripping at that speed!

26. Dice Tricks
It turns out, many manufacturers reuse defective dice by placing them inside of new dice. It’s not great if you are hoping for die that are completely random. However, it is a very cost-effective manufacturing strategy.

29. Taxidermy Fox
It looks like the girls are ready for their weekly lunch date. Both of them are very excited. Their chosen destination is their favorite place to eat together — McDonald’s. Although, it is a little strange that a dead fox is eating McDonald’s…

38. Gift Ideas
Somehow, we don’t think the store really thought the placement of this advertisement through. They never considered the fact that putting a sign that says “surprise her” right above a bunch of knives could be a bad look.

45. Informative Pockets
We suppose that it doesn’t really matter what material is used for the pockets of jeans. This company used old fabric with the periodic table of elements printed on it for their pockets. It’s so random, but in a way, really cool too.
