Ten Most Unintentionally Disturbing Statues In The World

Public art is meant to be eye catching and pleasant to look at, and not something that will make little kids cry or make people feel uncomfortable being around it, so when public art frightens rather than amuses it becomes the talk of the town.

Putting up a statue of Marilyn Monroe’s iconic pose from The Seven-Year Itch is one thing, but putting a statue of a half dissected pregnant warrior woman in the town square for all to see is bound to give the kiddies nightmares!

The artists clearly didn’t intend their statues to be terrifying (although a few are definitely testing the boundaries), but sometimes what looks good on paper, and in the studio, looks rather scary when exposed to the light of day.

Feast your eyes on The 10 Most Unintentionally Terrifying Statues In The World

Men Took Coffee Very Seriously In The 1950s, According To Commercials

(Video Link)

Men took things, like coffee and their hair, way more seriously in the 1950s and 60s than they do today, at least according to television commercials featuring husbands grumping about their coffee to their poor wives.

It’s no wonder the divorce rate soared through the roof, women were sick of hearing about how bad their coffee tastes, and men fell into the arms of the first woman who made them a decent cuppa joe!

Wake up to Coffee Jerks, a vintage commercial compilation featuring old timey ads about homebrewed marriage trouble put together by Shaun Clayton a few years back.

It’ll open your eyes to the trials and tribulations of those brave domestic folks who had to suffer with making coffee at home, back before there was a Starbucks on every block. How ever did they manage!

Stop Motion Animation Brings Folded Tissue Animals To Life

(Video Link)

Normally we think of facial tissue as nothing more than snot collectors or eye wipers, but artist Yuki Ariga has found a much cooler use for facial tissues- she folded them into animal shapes and created a cute stop motion animation short where the little paper animals come to life.

Tissue Animals was created as an ad for the Japanese paper manufacturer Nepia, and Yuki will no doubt see her original concept duplicated by other paper artists who may have previously overlooked the value of an unsnotty tissue when it comes to creating unique papercraft creations.

Photos Of D-Day Locations In Normandy Then And Now

It’s hard to imagine the D-Day Invasion in full swing, with soldiers storming the beaches and explosions peppering the coast, when you look at pictures of the beaches in Normandy, France today, but seventy years ago this was the place where the Allies would turn the tides of war and end the German occupation of France.

Photographer Chris Helgren has compiled a series of photos that show key locations in the D-Day Invasion from then (June 6, 1944) and now, and needless to say there's a lot less barbed wire and a lot more bikinis!

A Rare Look Behind-The-Scenes Of The Price Is Right

(Video Link)

The Price Is Right is one of the most beloved TV game shows of all time, mostly because people from all walks of life who attend a taping of the show have a chance of becoming a contestant and winning big prizes.

TPIR is also home to lots of fun, and colorful, games like Cliff Hangers, Plinko and the unique value bidding game the Showcase Showdown, so those who have their name called not only have a fun time ahead of them on stage, they get to see the magic and mystery that lies behind the curtain.

Backstage is where all the magic happens, and thanks to this lengthy video you get to take a look behind-the-scenes of The Price Is Right like never before.

How much would you bid for a peek behind The Price Is Right curtain? I’d bid a dollar…

(Note: the video is three hours total length, but the content is only one hour in length which is repeated for later broadcast)

Comic Book Panels Seem Dirty When Taken Out-Of-Context

Comic book panels are meant to correlate to each other, as parts of a whole page, but when you take a single comic panel out of the page and read it totally out of context from the rest of the issue things tend to get lost in translation, and the whole thing seems downright dirty.

Sure, some comics contain such laughably bad dialog that you don’t even need to single out certain panels to get a laugh, but in this case we’re talking about stoic, stuffy superheroes like Batman, Superman and Captain America, guys who don’t normally crack a smile, much less crack wise.

Bask in the comedic glory of 43 Out-Of-Context Comic Panels That Prove All Superheroes Have Dirty Minds and remember- they’re only dirty in your mind!


Literal Interpretations Of Nonsensical Song Lyrics

Most song lyrics aren’t meant to be taken literally, if they were we’d all be kissing the sky, putting the ram in the rama lama ding dong and sailing the seas of cheese, but it can be fun to think about what those lyrics would look like if they were visualized exactly as they sound.

Artist Nathan Pyle is obviously a music lover and a lyrically minded fellow at that, so he has created some fun GIF interpretations of song lyrics that make no sense when taken literally.

So, if you've ever wondered what a room without a roof looks like while clapping along, or how it would look if someone tried to set fire to the rain, you can thank Nathan Pyle for the visuals!

Sharkasm - The Fish Don't Think He's Very Funny


Sharkasm by HandsOffMyDinosaur

It's hard to tell by looking at them, but sharks have a wonderful sense of humor. They like to joke with their prey before they rip them to shreds, and they often leave their food to laugh themselves to death when they're just looking for a bite of fish. But you'd better look out for those bitter sharks who don't have a good sense of humor, the ones who fill their days with biting sharkasm and never seem to crack a smile, because their bitterness is contagious!

Bigfoot of Endor - A Strange Chewie Sighting


Bigfoot of Endor by Hoborobo

The forest moon was full of furry creatures of all shapes and sizes, and they generally got along just fine thanks to daily parties and plenty of libations, but when the critter they referred to as Bigfoot moved in things got pretty scary. He carried a big bowcaster and a bag full of tiny bones, and when he spoke it sounded like a sheep was being strangled. The little alien bear people now live in fear of the Bigfoot, hoping to one day hire a smuggler to come and take him away...
