Everyday Objects That Make Us Believe In Intelligent Design
Ever see a bisected onion that looks suspiciously like President Nixon? Or some faces in places they shouldn't be? Merriam-Webster defines pareidolia as, "the tendency to perceive a specific, often meaningful image in a random or ambiguous visual pattern."
Either we all have pareidolia or fruits, vegetables, clouds, and furniture are starting to conspire against us. Read ahead for a potato that could be mistaken for a marine mammal, cartoon characters just lying on the ground, and a mattress that looks good enough to eat on a hot summer day.
Duckmato
I don't know if I want to put this rubber duck-shaped tomato in my bath or eat it with cucumbers and feta.
Apparently, this happens quite often. Every year some new gardener is in the news reporting a duck shaped tomato. Now I can't even look at a rubber duck without getting hungry.
I Scream, You Scream
When was the last time you looked at an ice cream sandwich and thought, that looks comfortable, I'd like to sleep on that? Last week? Me too.
Well, this mattress company definitely had the same idea. If only we could harness the smell and temperature of an ice cream sandwich and somehow infuse that into a mattress too.
The Circle Of Life
This septic tank looks exactly like Rafiki from The Lion King. Don't see it? Look haaarrrrder.
It's all part of the circle of life — the antelope eat the grass, the baboon goes under the grass, the baboon decomposes sewage... Read ahead for a Sesame Street character in the last place you'd expect to find one.
Magic Helps The Medicine Go Down
Today I learned that if you leave daytime cold medicine in the car on a hot day, it could melt into elf shoes. Clogs to clear your clogged nose, if you will.
Now we just have to find some cough drops to fashion into a little elf hat and we'll be all set.
Highway Hummingbird
The tire marks on this highway barrier look just like a dainty, peaceful hummingbird, but I bet whatever happened here was anything but dainty and peaceful.
Let's just hope that whatever car made those tire marks is still on the right side of the barrier.
C Is For Cargo
I know this truck is just carrying rolls of plastic, but now I want to stuff a whole bunch of cookies in my mouth.
Can you imagine how many cookies it would take to feed a Cookie Monster truck? Thousands, probably. We'd better get baking. Read on for baked goods that look too cute to eat.
Nutty Duck
A peanut that looks like a little duckling is almost as good as a duckling that looks like a little peanut. Would you rather have one duck sized peanut or 100 peanut-sized ducks?
This hybrid is giving us the best of both worlds. I just hope nobody quacked his shell...
This Little Piggy Rode A Carousel
The angle of this picture makes it look like this guy has pig legs, and honestly, they don't look that bad on him.
There are worse legs that you could have, I guess. Maybe next time he'll sit on the horse and he'll look like a centaur.
The Deadliest Sins
Two of the seven deadly sins have joined forces in a single photo: sloth and gluttony. How can we resist such temptation?
What is even the point of pain au chocolat if it doesn't look like a sloth face? Read ahead for a pepper that's ready to pick a fight.
Concrete Giant
I don't know the intended purpose of this bit of concrete, but if Vin Diesel's voice doesn't come out of his mouth soon, we riot.
Looks like he's found himself a nice patch of gravel to spend some time in. Nothing but respect for MY Superman.
Wall-E-noculars
These binoculars look exactly like Wall-E's eyes. Maybe the director of the Pixar film had the same pair.
Andrew Stanton got the idea for WALL·E’s design from a pair of binoculars someone handed him at a baseball game. He said he missed an entire inning because he couldn't stop staring them.
Pepper Packs A Punch
At least this pepper looks like it's going to hurt you before it sets your mouth on fire. Most peppers look sweet and innocent, and then bam, you can't taste anything else for hours.
This pepper says, look out friends, things are about to get spicy. Read on for another pepper that spicier in shape than it is in taste.
Shuffle Off To Buffalo
This dentist lamp looks so much like a bull that it's hard to know if the resemblance is intentional or not.
If I had a happy cow looking down on me as I was getting cavities filled, the whole experience would be much more pleasant.
A Subtle Abduction
It looks like this U.F.O. shaped cloud is about to beam up some unsuspecting house dwellers.
Or maybe that really is a U.F.O and aliens have gotten really good at blending into our surroundings. Let's just hope they come in peace, and that whatever they probe us with is also as fluffy as a cloud.
Green Bell Pepe
We have found him— the rarest Pepe of them all. Feels good man. This sweet bell pepper was just minding his own business in somebody's garden when he was discovered.
Let us treasure him always. Pepe is just an innocent meme. Don't blame him for how he's been mishandled.
D.J. Carotene
This carrot looks like it's about to drop the healthiest verse of all time. His haircut also suggests that he's into alternative dubstep.
Skrillex doesn't have anything on this crunchy disc jockey. Are you spinning records or spinning salads? Either way, I'm here for it. Read on for a tantalizing tuber, a potato too good for this world.
The Great Gig In The Sky
Thanks to some curvy clouds and a really good camera angle, this guitar in the sky is making our day feel a little more musical.
Now whatever deity you believe in can jam out with the birds and the wind. I hope they know Wonderwall.
A Spudly Seal
This is the best potato I've ever seen. Please do not mash him.
I wonder how much this potato would sell for on eBay. I'd pay a solid $10 for it, but I bet there are some wealthy businessmen who love both seals and potatoes who'd be willing to shell out the big bucks.
You May Kiss The Cooler
These two water coolers only dated for 7 months before Mr. Cooler got down on one spout and popped the question.
The quick engagement gave rise to some pregnancy rumors, which we can now confirm are true. Mrs. Cooler is indeed expecting a little water bottle in January.
The Empire Strikes Backpack
As if you needed any more convincing that homework was a product of the dark side. I don't care whose father this is, I still don't want to do algebra.
Are there any C3PO backpacks where this came from? He's the droid I'm actually looking for.
