Most optimists can be a little pessimistic at times, and no matter how much they want to believe their glass will always be half full they know sometimes it’s just plain empty, and there are no more free refills. But eternally cheerful guy Kevin sees the silver lining on every mushroom cloud and gold nuggets in every pile of poop. Comic strip Kevin & Friends shows how sickening an eternal optimist can be. It’s demotivational, dark and disgusting in all the right ways, and even though life sucks for saccharine Kevin his misfortune makes us smile, so that makes it all worthwhile, right?

These pictures are truly heartbreaking. You can see a silent scream for help in every single one of these photos. The other thing you will notice: the look of betrayal. Those eyes are saying: “I trusted you… Now I’ll have to murder you in your sleep, human.”

So why do cats hate water so much? There are three main reasons:
1. Behaviorally cats are generally less tolerant of change and new experiences than, say, the dog. A cat that has never been exposed to water probably won’t like the feeling of having their body drenched in it. A cat that has regularly been exposed to water as kitten may be more accepting of it.

2. Cats are also very fastidious creatures. They spend a lot of time grooming themselves and likely aren’t big fans of having anything that doesn’t smell “normal” on their fur. Wet fur is extremely uncomfortable for a cat and often takes a long time to dry. Wet fur is also heavier than dry and thus makes a cat less nimble and easier for predators to catch. In their eyes, you’re creating more work for them by bathing them.

3. There are likely biological reasons as well. Even though many cats love the taste of fish, they are not ocean or river dwelling creatures historically. Because the species evolved in dry climates and had little exposure to rivers or lakes, water (except for drinking) is an element they are unfamiliar with and thus avoid. They have never learned to swim because there was no evolutionary need for it. This behavior, or lack thereof, has stuck around in our modern day cats.

The good news is that bathing is rarely needed for cats. If your cat does need to be bathed for medical reasons, or if they became overly dirty for some reason, here are some tips to make it a little less stressful: fill the tub first, the sound and splashing of running water will make things worse. Line the tub with a folded towel (which will of course become wet) so they feel like they have something to grip onto. A slippery tub floor will also cause more stress for the cat. Use a container to carefully pour water over, versus using a faucet. Lastly, be really careful around the face and eyes!

You can almost hear them saying “I’m not angry, I’m just disappointed”. Please rethink your poor life choices so that these cats can stop judging you. Turn you life around!

Dog owners is a weird crowd. They like to give their pets makeup eyebrows, make them wear tights, and even make them stand on mushrooms. Is it any wonder that they also take photos of them wearing watermelon helmets and share these weird photos on Instagram? No. No, it’s not.

Medieval art sure is weird. We’ve already featured people happily dying, battle snails and cats licking their butts galleries that dived deep into the craziness of medieval drawings. But there’s one more mystery to solve: why were the artists of that era so obsessed with depicting murderous rabbits? Scroll down to see the examples and read the explanation!

The most probable explanation would be that these drawings are just a medieval sense of humor: in traditional medieval symbolism, rabbits were generally harmless and cowardly creatures. But in medieval manuscripts, the rabbits were depicted as violent. The role reversal of these rabbits in the marginalia was mainly used for humor. The world turned upside-down was portrayed where the innocent rabbits could take revenge and hunt humans, dogs, or other predators. The ‘mean rabbits’ theme also was at the simplest level a form of “topsy turvy”, related to fools being able to make fun of kings and women beating their husbands or foxes running away with cocks (NOT male chickens). It was considered humorous because it subverted the “natural law” of things.

A majority of artists at this time also were not monks, but professionals who worked on commission and did what the patrons requested, although they certainly had quite a bit of artistic license in marginal paintings. But a lot of what they did was work with commonly-understood (and thus easily-readable) comments, jokes, and sometimes patron-specific images. The images had to be easily understood / readable because marginal paintings rarely had captions.

Alternative explanation is that hares and rabbits in medieval imagery were said to depict women, which is actually why they are usually shown doing damage to men. Medieval law allowed a man to beat a woman as he saw fit, as long as he didn’t kill or maim her, whereas if a woman laid her hand on a man, it was classed as “petty treason” and she would be executed for the crime. These rabbits were an artistic way of depicting a woman’s revenge.

Meanwhile on Instagram, men have been sporting a glitter beard… For those who wish to participate in this trend and help to pollute our planet with microplastics here’s what you must do: Step 1: Grow a beard. Step 2: Put some glitter in it. Step 3: Post a picture on Instagram with #GlitterBeard tag. Step 4: Collect your likes.

Short history of glitter beard: the reason behind this trend in beard style is the Instagram duo known as @TheGayBeards. Composed of Johnathan and Brain, both of whom have beards, The Gay Beards started the trend of adding glitters to facial hair in 2017 when they decided to style theirs that way and posted it on their social media pages. The fact that the two are fun-loving people who are not too concerned about conventionality is one reason why others also started to follow their example.

You would probably not be surprised that glitter beard is not the only weird Instagram trend involving glitter. People are also putting in their armpits, on their butts, and even licking it. We truly live in an amazing time of brilliant self-expression, don’t we?

Have you ever wanted to have a taxidermy mouse in your home? What about taxidermy mouse that’s doing various things that only humans do? Well, you are in luck! Taxidermy Tom is here to help you. He has makes and sells the exact thing on his Etsy store. As Tom himself puts it: “They’re great fun to make and I love giving them different personalities and costumes. I have lots of ideas in the pipeline, the only limit is my imagination.”

Please not that all mice are made to order so a 30 day dispatch time is standard. If we have to guess – it’s because Tom have to find a dead mouse, dry it, stuff it, and dispatch it. This is no off-the-shelf stuff we’re talking here. Tom claims that his rodents have been sourced from a large supplier operating within Europe. The mice are bred and used as animal food within zoos, animal sanctuaries and wildlife parks. These animals have veterinarian checks on a monthly basis and are humanely euthanised.

If you’re into this kind of stuff, we recommend you also check out taxidermy deer butts, taxidermy chicken lamps, and taxidermy animal drones that we have previously featured on this amazing site.

To purchase Taxidermy Tom’s weird creations check out his Etsy store.

We’ve previously featured this restaurant in Texas that’s making its customers and the internet laugh out loud with their brilliant signs. Now it’s time to check out their latest additions!

Internet is a strange place full of weird people doing weird things for attention. Turns out some dog owners are not any different from general population and do suffer from human stupidity by participating in #DogsInTights Instagram trend.

There isn’t anything in the world that a good owner wouldn’t do for his beloved pet. So when a health emergency comes up, some of us panic and rush to the vet, which is a completely normal reaction. However, in some cases, what we thought was a major problem turned out to be something completely silly. Scroll down to put a smile on your face, and don’t forget to share your own story in the comments!

This Twitter thread was started by Kristin Chirico and quickly went viral with thousands of retweets and replies. One thing that it showed us is that, fortunately, not all health emergencies are as bad as they seem. There’s also a subtle hint there that vets have the patience of saints and the sense of humor of stand-up comedians.

Happy events in your life must be celebrated properly. Like when stupid, annoying people leave your life for good. What better way to tell your co-worker that you won’t miss him and that you hope he fails in his next job than with a delicious cake?

Remember the monkey tail beard we told you about some time ago? If that wasn’t weird enough, now guys have started having a circle beard. The cut involves first growing a beard to meet the hairline and then shaving off all the hair except a circle that stretches from head to chin. We truly live in an amazing time of creativity and self-expression!

This new look has been called “worse than mullet”, “circumcised penis”, and “crime against hair”, while others have even expressed an urge to commit violent acts: “It makes your face look more punchable than the average.” What’s your opinion on this? How does seeing a circle beard make you feel? Would you ever join this trend? Let us know in the comments below!

To be fair, reusing an old doll head is more eco-friendly than buying a new pot. It’s up to you whether or not it’s worth it. For us, we’ll take a larger carbon footprint in exchange for not being menaced by these tiny monstrosities found via #DollPlanters Instagram trend. If you wish to take part in this nightmare-inducing trend, but don’t have a creepy baby doll head laying around, you can purchase these planters from hell from various Etsy stores.

Why are dolls so creepy anyways? It begins with how we see faces at all. Humans pay special attention to them, and have done so since we were babies, and we are very good at it: it only takes us 170 milliseconds to recognize a face. In this rapid face recognition, our brains are not very picky. That’s why we often see faces in inanimate objects. Yet we must be able to discriminate faces worthy of our thoughts, feelings, and actions from false alarms that are not actually faces. Enter the dolls…

We already know the first stage: that a face is rapidly detected. But there’s another, longer process where our brains try to determine if a face has a mind. If the brain decides that face does, your attention stays with the face. If you deem something not to have a mind, then your attention wanes. And that’s where the creepiness can come in. With dolls your brain is searching for a mind and not finding one. But it’s getting a lot of the same cues (eyes, mouth, expressions) that it would receive in faces with minds. There are these signals that are telling our brain this thing is alive, but we know it is not alive. And that juxtaposition is really creepy.

Don’t have a creepy baby doll head? Not into DIY projects? These Etsy stores got you covered.

The proud people living on the rudely named street in Shepshed, Loughborough, UK have remained defiant that their beloved street will not be renamed. They love it. And so do tourists who flock to this street sign and happily share their photos on Instagram with a #ButtholeLane hashtag.

Rather than being just a joke that went too far, Butthole Lane actually takes its name from the old English word “butt”, which was a target. It’s believed Butthole Lane was where archers practices shooting at targets during the Tudor period. The people who live on Butthole Lane have better sense of humor than their counterparts on Butt Hole Road in South Yorkshire who, in 2009, had their street renamed as Archers Way (they were reportedly sick of people exposing their rear-ends while having photos taken next to the street sign).

Butthole Lane would actually be a perfect place where to eat Edible Anus chocolate candy which is also made in the UK. Hopefully someone does it and takes a picture, we would love to include it in this gallery.

Who said churches are boring and pastors don’t have a good sense of humor? Scroll down to see these funny church signs: a living proof that both of these statements are not true.

Why are funny church signs so popular across America? First and foremost exterior church signs create awareness and keep the community informed and engaged with messages and above everything, they give people a sense of church’s personality. There’s also a wrong presumption that everyone knows where the church is. No, they don’t. And it’s not their fault. An outdoor signage plays a crucial role in this regard.

Funny church signs also appeal to the Millennials and Gen Z. Churches are notorious for failing to keep up with the times and are often regarded as places where only elderly gather. Religion has a very different place in people’s lives than few decades ago. It used to be commonplace to go to church every Sunday and barely a soul grumbled about it. But nowadays, more and more individuals are acting like Homer Simpson and wondering if it wouldn’t be better to sleep in and stay toasty in bed. Millennials and Gen Z dominate today’s population. Attracting these age groups is essential for the survival of the church in the future, that’s why they try so hard.

For example, Pastor Ron Garner of the Wantagh Memorial Congregational Church explained the inspiration for the witty signs and talked about the role of religion in the 21st century: “Our church is located on a very busy street in Wantagh. I want to convey to the public that Christianity doesn’t have to be staid. I also want to convey to passersby that I believe people who follow Jesus are not called to be apolitical but are called to take social justice issues seriously. We are a small congregation but we have new members who came because of our signs.”

While many people think of the United States as a very religious country, the fact of the matter is, faith is declining in the US. According to The Guardian, Pew Research Center has shown that within the last decade there has been a 12 percent drop in people who identify themselves as Christians. It’s mostly younger Americans who are moving away from the faith of their forefathers. Fewer people are going to church as well. Those who attend church at least once or twice each month has fallen by 7 percent in the same time period. Attendance has fallen so much that nowadays more Americans say they attend church a few times each year than each month. Would putting up funny signs help? Who knows. It surely won’t hurt.

Remember Shittens we featured some time ago? Well, there’s a new similar product, but this time for your nose. Snittens are winter gloves that are made specifically for wiping your nose while outside on extra cold days. You probably already wipe your nose on your jacket sleeve, so why not just use these extra soft snot absorbing gloves instead. Just don’t go shaking anyone’s hand with them on after using them…

Regarding shaking hands: in many countries it’s actually is considered very rude to shake hands with gloves or mittens on, so you should always remove them before greeting someone – doesn’t matter if they’re covered in snot or not. Anyways, back to the Snittens. The company behind Snittens claim that they are actually able to absorb 28x their weight in pure human snot (yes, they measured). This is a pretty good gag gift, though they’re actually quite useful for people who need them.

One side of the gloves is meant to absorb your snot (on the outside), whereas the inside of the gloves are meant more to absorb your tears. So don’t mix the sides up and end up wiping snot into your eyes! These mittens are machine washable so once you get snot and tears all over them, just throw them into the washing machine to use them again the next day.

There are two different versions of the Snittens, one version for men, and another version for women. The only difference is the style and size of the mittens. The snot holding level and general performance remains the same. So what are you waiting for? Get ready for the winter now, get your Snittens on Amazon now!

Photos of a male lion at a Chinese zoo sporting straight bangs went viral online, leaving many wondering how the staff managed to pull off the haircut, yet they claim they didn’t… leaving this mystery unsolved. Maybe the lion did it all by itself?

The lion’s mane is the most recognizable feature of the species, and even though its size and color vary by a variety of factors, both genetic and environmental, we can say that it never has that tidy “salon” look. But there are exceptions, like this specimen at a zoo in Guangzhou, China, which recently went viral for sporting an impeccable mane that seemed styled after the straight bangs we see human women sometimes choose to have. The unique look has sparked some controversy online, with many accusing the zoo staff of cutting the animal’s hair for no good reason at all, a claim that the zoo has repeatedly denied.

Just look at that thing. It looks like someone tried to give that majestic lion Joe Exotic’s iconic haircut. It’s hard to believe that hairdo isn’t the work of humans, but the staff at Guangzhou Zoo insists that they did not go near the lion with shears. Cutting the lion’s mane is too dangerous, according to an official statement, which mentioned that the look of the lion’s mane might be influenced by the humidity in Guangzhou.

Few have taken the zoo’s statement seriously, and several social media users even accused the staff of lying, claiming that when they last visited the place a couple of months ago the lion had a normal mane, and now it looks like it’s been to a hair salon. What do you think? Is there any truth to zoo staff’s claims or you believe that they simply cut lion’s mane as some kind of weird prank? Let us know in the comments below!

Yes, the title is correct, there really is a chocolate brand that makes and sells candy that looks like a human butthole. “Edible Anus” Belgian chocolates are handmade in the UK and the company claims its brown star mold comes from a sphincter model whose trunk is as fine as the chocolates themselves. They believe their anus range of confections can “dissolve cultural boundaries of race, gender, class, and sexual orientation”. You can get them on Amazon and, as you can see from the pictures below, people actually are buying and eating them. We truly live in an amazing time!

So what’s the story behind this unusual treat? The “Edible Anus” first saw the light of day in 2006 when the London artist, Magnus Irvin, made a range of them in multi-coloured chocolate to present in an exhibition. It was at the ensuing show that he met and formed a partnership with Mr Ritzema, a tall man of Dutch desent. Since then the two of them have worked together to make the magic happen in your mouth… and anus.

Initially Mr Irvin tried to cast his own anus with messy and disastrous results. Whilst explaining his failure to a chance acquaintance at a bus stop he was gratified to find that his fellow bus passenger was willing to allow him to cast her anus. The job was done in just over half an hour later that afternoon and all subsequent anuses have been based on this casting. The person who kindly donated her service has no idea that her anus has now gone global. She truly is an unsung hero of our times.

If this mouth-watering origin story made you crave some chocolate, you can get “Edible Anus” candy on Amazon… or you can purchase it as a gift with an added bonus to watch grandma’s face light up as she unwraps a homely selection of chocolate cracks. The perfect gift for all the family!

This attention-grabbing flipping key holder will all but guarantee that you never leave your keys behind. The moment that you hang your keys on this seemingly inconspicuous key holder, the middle finger shoots straight up. Brilliant, isn’t it? Actually it’s more than just brilliant, it’s pure genius! This just might be the greatest invention since the wheel, electricity, and penicillin!

Where does the middle finger gesture come from anyways? The origin of the sign dates back to the English archers in the middle ages. The bows used by English archers were called LONGBOW and used the middle finger to stretch the bow. Its effective distance was around 250-300 meters. They were trained at a young age to use this bow. The French, on the other hand, used roller bows. Since the British were generally fighting with the French at that time, the middle fingers of the British archers when the two sides came face to face meant that “the arrows I shoot thanks to this finger will take you to a suitable place”. The French also punished the English archers they captured by cutting off their middle fingers if they did not kill them.

Back to the middle finger key holder. If you have a 3D printer and don’t want to spend so much money buying it, you can get a printable STL file here, and take the DIY approach to adding a small detail in your life that will make you smile when your come home. For those who don’t have a 3D printer, the key holder can be purchased from this Etsy store.
