"Caught My First Tube This Morning ... On A Motorcycle"

DC Shoes

OK, this is obviously a crude Photoshop that somebody slapped together so they could copy-and-paste random inspirational quotes onto it and convince your aunt to share it on Facebook. "In order to succeed, we must first believe that we can." "Stop Wishing. Start Doing." "When life gives you lemons, ride a fucking motorcycle across the ocean."

In a stunt that marketers would be physically unable to describe without adding at least four X's to "extreme," professional motorbike guy Robbie Madison bolted water ski attachments onto his dirt bike and rode it on water.

The engine runs on Red Bull.

Of course, anybody could do that. So Madison pushed it one step further and caught a wave that, if it didn't qualify as a tsunami, was at least, like, a junior tsunami. Again, on a dirt bike. If he doesn't change his legal name to Motorcycle Jesus after this, we fail to see the point.

He's Going Super Saiyan

All Things Gym

This looks like somebody was trying to Photoshop this joyous weightlifter and his barbell into a different background (maybe one with more product placement) and saved the image before he'd had a chance to drag the cropped image to the floor.

Instead, you're looking at a fortuitously timed photograph of Lesman Paredes competing at the Junior World Weightlifting Championships. The pose is the result of a combination of him a) doing his lifting on a somewhat bouncy surface b) dropping an amount of weight capable of launching a human being three goddamned feet into the air and c) being super pumped that he managed to do so without transmogrifying his vertebrae into lumps of wet toilet paper.

Man, Chlorine Really Works Wonders

Thomas Peter/Reuters

So your backyard is a literal cesspit. That doesn't mean you can't have nice things! Look at this lovely oasis amidst an endless sea of shit. Of course, if the harsh cleaning chemicals we use are capable of doing that, it's a wonder every public pool doesn't transform into the pool scene from Poltergeist.

The image above is an aerial view of the extensive flooding that took place across Central Europe in 2013. The walls of this one lucky swimming pool were just high enough to keep the rising waters out. The resulting dichotomy is so perfect that it looks as if you could still lounge in one of those cabana chairs and enjoy the view, if only said view weren't the aftermath of a vengeful god's wrath. On a similar note ...

Architecture Inspired By Jenga

Alaska Channel

Building codes take the place of toilet paper in the restrooms at the Dr. Seuss Museum and Gift Shop.

We're being facetious, of course, but there's a good reason the locals of Willow, Alaska (insomuch as Willow, Alaska can be said to have locals) refer to the teetering building above as the "Dr. Seuss House." The house is the brainchild of attorney Phillip Weidner, whose dual majors in college appear to have been Nonsensical Architecture and Sharp Dressing.

God's Sandal Shows Its Support For Gay Marriage

Peter Fell

This photograph of what appears to be an outtake from the intro to Monty Python's Flying Circus was taken in Australia, mere seconds after God's great be-sandaled foot crashed through the clouds to crush the koalas clear out of existence, because seriously, fuck those things. The pretty rainbow is his assurance to us that humanity's flesh is now forever safe from their knife-like teeth and ever-flicking, probably forked tongues.

In reality, this is a natural phenomenon called a fallstreak hole, and it can happen any time clouds form high enough for the water within them to become supercooled. As soon as one ice crystal forms, it causes nearby water to crystallize in a chain reaction. The result is a circular, frozen (and therefore heavier) section of cloud. It's the same phenomenon that creates contrails when super-hot jet exhaust collides with super-cooled water at super-high altitudes. That, or they're both evidence that an alien race and/or The Man is out to fry your brain. Your call.

"Excuse Me, Ma'am, But If Your Child Can't Fit Into A Quart-Sized Baggie, He Must Be Checked."

Guardia Civil

What we appear to have here is a marketing poster created by a budget airline to better appeal to the cheapskate demographic. "We keep our ticket prices low so you don't have to sneak your child onto the flight jammed inside a suitcase, you unimaginable monster." The tagline could use some work.

Shit, We Accidentally Included A Photo Of A Boring Clump Of Leaves

There is in fact a creature in that picture, and if you stare at it long enough with your eyes squinted precisely right and maybe a little bit crossed, it'll eventually pop out at you like a Magic Eye. Spoiler: It's a lizard, and it's sporting the most batshit camouflage this side of the actual Bat Shit Camouflage (TM) at your local Bass Pro Shop. More specifically, it's a satanic leaf-tailed gecko.

The leaf-tailed bit is clear, but satanic? Seems harsh.

The Trees In Woodstock Just Grow That Way Now

via The San Francisco Globe

If you were to show this tree to your grandma, she'd probably either a) slap the everloving shit out of you for getting mischievous with the Crayolas again, or b) flash back to her hippie days, strip down, and rub mud all over her bare breasts. It's probably best to avoid showing this tree to your grandma, now that we think about it.

What looks like the tragic aftermath of an explosion down at the black light poster factory is a rainbow eucalyptus, and yes, it really does grow that way. As it matures -- doubling its size each year -- it gradually discards strips of its brightly colored bark, resulting in a veritable living rainbow. We're not saying somebody should sneakily plant one in front of the Westboro Baptist Church, but somebody should sneakily plant one in front of the Westboro Baptist Church.

"I Need You To Photoshop Us An Album Cover, And You Only Have Five Minutes"

Dustin Humphrey/Insight (NSFW)

This one not only looks fake, it looks like a lazy fake. Are we supposed to think those guys are underwater? The perspective is all wrong. And how the hell would you even get that shot?

The answer is: very carefully.

This was part of an ad campaign for beachwear manufacturer Insight (warning: boobs ahead), in which photographer Dustin Humphrey arranged bizarre underwater scenes, ranging from people driving Dr. Seuss cars to an upside-down Victorian bedroom, and then photographed them as pro surfers whizzed overhead.

At that point, you need a camera with a special lens and a glass dome on the front, positioned right at the waterline. We're not entirely certain how any of this was supposed to incite people to buy T-shirts, but really, all of modern society depends on us not asking such questions.
