weird

Maybe it's a 6th sense, maybe it's sheer panic, maybe it's using your eyes to see an angry pig barreling at you like you're made of slop. There are moments in our lives where we know that the right thing to do is just leave and never come back. There are also those moments where a particular place beats us down to the point where we say "screw this, I'm out.' There are moments we just know when it's the time to nope on out.

Cursed Images are a good reminder of how lost and repulsed we can be by random images with zero context. You could call it something like a sensory response to cognitive estrangement. You could also call it "being disgusted by seeing a bowl of pennies filled with milk." Little of column A, a lot of column B.

As not-total-idiots, we spend a lot of time worrying about making the right decision. Sometimes we can thank ourselves for avoiding a bad situation, and sometimes it's totally up to random chance whether we dodge a huge bullet or not. Everyone has a moment in their lives that the think about "man if that had gone just slightly differently I'd be in some serious pain right now." Hindsight is 20/20 and life is just a constant act of dodging massive bullets.

The subway is a bit like everyone's car, and you've seen some people's cars. But hey, people have got to get to where they're going whether they're in costume or an actual duck. What are you lookin' at? If the answer to that question is "more weird things on public transportation, then here's more strange and cursed moments on the subway.

So this guy knows that he's bad at cooking, absolutely hates cooking, but still insists on secretly adding stuff? That's some weird junk, man. It's like having a narcissistic spicy-salt gremlin lurking in your house. In terms of cooking themed childishness it's a little bit like this picky eater husband who demanded fancier meals.

Cats on catnip: the saga that starts and never ends, the most amusing piece of entertainment any of us ever get to watch, the madness is long and hilarious, but the crash is even funnier. There is nothing in the world that makes me laugh harder than watching my cat lose her mind with a catnip toy in her mouth. I never see her as active as when she's got that nip available. 

And so the madness continues, with people sharing pics of their cats losing their minds on nip. Have you got some pics of your own to share of your cat losing your mind? Come share them with us and make us all laugh in our Facebook community: ICanHas Storytime.

As much as we'd all like to think we're perfectly rational, we're all creatures of suspicion and superstition. Sometimes we see strange events that we can't logically explain like having some weird premonition or out-of-body experience, and all we're left to do is sit there and go "alright, that was weird. People aren't going to believe this."

We live in a world of unconventional hazards. It might seem cartoonish to think that you might get hit by a propeller, get bit by a plague-carrying rodent or fall down a hidden mineshaft. If those weren't things that could happen, we wouldn't need ominous signs that mean serious business. While sometimes horribly weird and unsettling, these creepy and ominous signs are doing their job.

It's hard when something extremely strange or unlikely happens, because you want to tell someone without sounding like a liar or moron. People are right to be skeptical, but why would anyone lie about walking in on a vested goat eating a roll of toilet paper? You've got moments like these strange events people can't explain logically that make you think, "how am I gonna tell anyone about this?" It's so hard to explain rare and unlikely moments that went against the odds. 

Knowledge is power, and some weird knowledge has the power to alienate strangers. Knowing how bleak, desolate, painful and precarious the world is can be a lot to handle, but it might make people think you're smart. That's kinda cool, right? Some facts are too sad, which is why it also helps to know wild sex facts to quote during an awkward silence.

Why do we get joy out of seeing things in other things? Is it because we want to imagine we're surrounded by friendly objects? Is it because it's like a fun visual puzzle? Maybe it's because we're just wired to see faces? It's very apparent in these inanimate objects with a whole lot of personality.

What's the use of throwing anything away? If someone finds some dumb junk, they're gonna try selling it online. It's amazing what kinds of things people will try to pass off as collectable these days, but that doesn't stop anyone from trying. Old Taco Bell furniture, unique-looking cheetos and homemade lawnmowers are all at the top of the list of ridiculous junk people try to sell online.

It's weird that we're surrounded by people all the time, but it's against social convention to have a meaningful relationship with any of them. As rare as it is, people will take time out of their lives to make more of an impact than being just a face in the crowd. Some of these interactions are strange encounters, others are wholesome, but the one thing they all are is memorable.

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the weirdest things that happened to people that people simply can't logically explain. Sometimes you're out and about, going through your day's series of obligations, and then all of a sudden you witness what basically feels like a "glitch in the matrix" moment. This universe is brimming with far more mysteries than we ever really stop to stew over. 

Sure, the world might have its own expectations about what is proper conduct, but the mad lads of the world don't see it that way. Mad lads pave their own way through shenanigans, trickery and bold brashness of all kinds. They may have different ideas of what counts as out-of-bounds, but they're all maniacal mad lads who don't give a dang.

Given the amount of time we spend just existing, it's pretty likely that we're bound to see a few unlikely occurrences and rare moments in our lives. But thanks to the fact that there's a lot of us all existing at the same time, doing all sorts of stuff, rare moments and unlikely occurrences happen way more frequently than they feel like they should. And that's kind of cool.
