Camouflaged Cushion Cake
This is not a picture of a piece of cake that has been placed on top of a chair. It is a picture of a part of a chair that has been cut out to look like a piece of cake and then put on a plate and put on top of the chair. It still looks kind of delicious, though.
This is the four-part story of a chocolate King Kong put in a pot to melt. It’s slightly more fun than when he climbs up buildings and swats down airplanes.

Cupboards located on the corners of a counter intersection can be difficult. This was a DIY job that probably is a big source of pride for the person who made it.

There is quite a bit to unpack with this photo. First of all, a man has decided to wear a tuxedo and hold a sewing machine in the park. Behind him, it appears a delivery van has fallen down a cliff and the driver is speaking with three policemen. This is one of those photos you don’t want to have all the answers for.

Have you ever been shoveling your driveway and just when you were close to being finished your shovel runs out of battery life? No, you haven’t because shovels don’t need to be charged. This one can be, however.

It appears that the person in this photo is taking a selfie in a mirror. Upon closer inspection, however, ramen noodle seems to be in his hand instead of a phone. He can download a lot of apps on that ramen too.
