Artificial Intelligence, better known as AI, has finally made it out of Sci-Fi novels and into our lives. Whether you like it, hate it, or are prepared and supplied for the Robot Revolution, AI is here to stay. Fortunately, it has been (mostly) harmless in its uses, and in some ways AI can seem downright idiotic. Lacking the common sense of a human being, it mimics us well but is prone to mistakes that can lead into Uncanny Valley. Fortunately, some of those mistakes are utterly hilarious for their bizarreness and make for their own entertainment. So if you’d like to see some of those great mistakes that put Surrealist artists to shame, read on!
That’s one way to get your hands free, though I do wonder what that woman is planning to do now. She looks alright despite an umbrella handle being lodged in her head; at least it will be easy to do some shopping and carry her groceries. Talk about creative problem-solving.
It’s not a very good umbrella, mind, as she’s soaking wet, but maybe it’s part of the new look. AI has learned about trends and, taking a bunch of ideas from various corners of the internet, decided to compile them into something new. Sorry, AI, try again, this one isn’t working.

From seeing ghosts in the hallway to recalling past lives, it seems like kids say and see the wildest things. But are they really seeing ghosts? Parents often take to the internet to figure out why their kids are experiencing spooky or supernatural things. While most experts cite overactive imaginations and cultural influence as the main culprits, it doesn’t make it any less creepy! We’ve rounded up the creepiest stories that people have shared about their kids’ supernatural experiences. So, turn on a light because things are about to get spooky.
It’s kind of creepy babysitting in someone else’s home at night when you’re the only adult in the house. We’ve seen so much media with haunted houses and creepy kids that it’s almost a cliche at this point. That doesn’t make it any less scary when it happens in real life, though.
This girl was babysitting a family friend’s kid, and the evening was pretty uneventful. Then, suddenly, the little girl turns to our storyteller and says, “We’re not alone in this house.” As if that line wasn’t creepy enough, the kid whispered it. Whispering kids are, hands down, the most dreadful thing ever.

You’re trying to make it past your first shift without causing too much trouble or attracting too much attention. If you’re lucky, the worst that could happen is your colleagues chuckling at your silly questions, but you try to keep a low profile. Then there are some people who just can’t help but cause trouble. Here are a few stories of how people’s co-workers got the boot in record time; some of them are truly questionable!
The simplest rule that we should all take to heart is never spilling your company’s secrets. Companies try hard to make sure sensitive information never sees the light of day. However, no matter hard they try, there’s always going to be one goofball that spills the proprietary beans.
The goofball in this story was an intern who signed an NDA. This is pretty standard stuff, and what’s also standard is not taking pictures of your workplace and showing it off to friends. Ten minutes after bragging about his internship on social media, he was shown the door. Good going, guy.
]]>Looking for some inspiration for your next beauty routine? Look no further than history! From slathering themselves in crocodile dung to using lead to whiten their faces, our ancestors went to some pretty extreme lengths in the name of beauty and science. Join us as we take a hilarious and sometimes cringe-worthy trip down memory lane to explore the weird and wacky things people did to their bodies in the past.
Known as the tersorium, this sea sponge attached to a wooden stick was a tool used by ancient Romans to clean themselves after using the toilet. The Romans also had a system for “sterilising” the sponge, which involved dipping it on vinegar before handing to the next person.
I can just imagine the conversations that took place back then. “Hey, Bob, can I borrow your butt sponge stick?” “Sure thing, Frank, just make sure you give it a good rinse first!” It’s enough to make you want to swear off all historical reenactments. But hey, maybe the ancient Romans were onto something. Maybe they knew something we don’t.
]]>In our never-ending search for true love, we all have to go through countless first dates until we find that one person who’s just right for us. Let’s be honest – first dates are almost always awkward, uncomfortable, sometimes boring, and other times downright cringy. Jimmy Fallon challenged his fans to share their funniest, most embarrassing, and cringe-worthy first dates, and you might find it hard to believe, but many of these stories, as funny as they seem, ended happily ever after.
I always thought this kind of stuff only happens in the movies, but I guess I thought wrong. This woman was out on a date on which her date was on a date with another woman! He was on two dates at the same restaurant simultaneously. I’m sorry, but this is as sleazy as sleazy gets.
When you’re on a date, and your date goes to the restroom a lot or finds other reasons to disappear every couple of minutes, it’s definitely a red flag, but what woman would imagine that her date is on another date? It’s a good thing this waiter told her what was going on so that she could get up and leave.

Scott Fitzgerald. “They are different from you and me.” We usually look at rich people with awe and focus on all of the cool ways that the rich are not like us—the amazing cars they drive, the beautiful clothes they wear, their glamorous vacations on yachts on the French Riviera. But unless you know rich people well, or if you work for them, you probably don’t see all of the ways that wealth makes people weird. Luckily for you, we’ve got you covered. We’ve gathered funny and disturbing stories from Reddit users of the strange things that people have seen wealthy friends and employers do.
I can see where this lady is coming from. If you truly love your dog as though it is your own child, as some people do, I can see wanting to give them the best things in life, including fancy bottled water. I mean, I don’t think it makes any sense and that it’s a terrible use of money, but I can at least see where the urge would come from.
But, I mean, has this woman ever seen what a dog gets into? I will bet you several shiny quarters that when her back is turned, that dog is lapping at mud puddles, drinking out of the toilet, and eating its own poop. So any attempt at making sure what goes into your dog is of high quality is doomed to failure.

While Bella Hadid’s name shines brightly in the world of supermodels, there’s a lesser-known chapter in her life that reveals a hidden battle with Lyme disease.

Appearances, they say, can be profoundly deceiving. The glittering façade of celebrity often masks the silent struggles that echo the everyday challenges faced by people from all walks of life.

Jerry Seinfeld has a joke about humans hating rain because we only like getting wet on our terms- we don’t mind getting wet in the shower or when we go swimming, but water falling down from the sky is unacceptable. As it turns out, human skin doesn’t actually sense “wetness”- we only grasp the concept of getting wet.
While our skin doesn’t actually sense wetness, our brain creates this illusion of what being wet feels like based on prior experience and similar stimuli. Wetness is an illusion. You can read all about the science behind this in different researches- but you’ve got to admit it’s pretty mindblowing!
]]>In the era when television was a thrilling newcomer to the entertainment scene, the 1950s, and 60s witnessed an explosive surge in the popularity of television series. Enthusiastic fans eagerly devoted their time to immersing themselves in the captivating worlds of their favorite shows, forming deep connections with beloved characters and adoring the talented actors who brought them to life. Within this cultural backdrop, the American Western television series The Rifleman shot to meteoric success, becoming a memorable part of the television landscape.
Imagine, for a moment, an alternative timeline where someone other than Chuck Connors takes on the iconic role of Lucas McCain in The Rifleman. It’s a challenging thought, considering how Connors’ portrayal is etched in our collective memory. But believe it or not, this almost became a reality when Connors initially declined the role due to a salary dispute.
This left the show’s creators in a quandary, contemplating the possibility of casting other talented actors like John Anderson or James Whitmore to step into the rancher’s boots. The uncertainty loomed until a pivotal moment in the casting process…

I’m kicking off this list with quite a banger. Not only did this guy manage to scam the airport once, but he managed to continue this charade for over a year! Even after they told him to stop, he still managed to make money by getting a refund for the ticket.
I wonder what made them figure out the truth in the end. Perhaps one of the restaurant workers recognized him, or maybe he made a blunder that gave away his secret. Either way, he must’ve cost the airport a pretty penny, and I’m sure that they feel mad about it now!
