The world does have a sense of humor — it's just not the sort that we can always appreciate. I mean, sometimes the joke is on us, right? There's always a twist!
And just when you think we can have nice things, along comes one of those twists to shed a different light on the matter.

Unfortunately, it wasn't able to make it back to the hive with all that pollen, however.
I mean, yeah, the tile is in, but it's not exactly...flush.
Apparently this fine fellow and three of his friends managed to set up shop in a newly built house for a month before anybody discovered them.
It just happens to be more than 700 years old. It's located at Pec Patriarchate, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Kosovo. And, amazingly, it's still growing.
But it's entirely possible that the plane's wing is blocking out the sky on the right, which kind of steals some of the magic from this.
And then there's this, just getting to the point of the cure, as the nurse couldn't hit a vein when putting in an IV.
Note to self: check home's fortifications. I want my place to be able to stand up to trebuchet fire.
That's the look of experience right there. These guys know how to treat themselves properly on their lunch breaks.
I'm sure it tastes great and everything, but the texture must be...different.
So, I guess credit goes to the USPS for their perseverance.
If you thought heterochromia just meant two eyes that are each a different color, well, here's heterochromia in just one eye.
But it's there for a good reason — to ward off predators. It seems unlikely, but donkeys will make short work of coyotes.
It's a scallop, just with its eyes and teeth intact. You'd probably recognize it better if it was wrapped in bacon.
Bubbles that form on the bottom of the egg will naturally only be able to float up around the edges of the eggs.
It actually costs more than the value of the bills themselves, presumably for the novelty. Most people buy it as a cool art or collector's piece, but technically, you can actually buy things with it.
If you're lucky, you could get a shot like this one, where lightning strikes part way through the pan. The reason the color is so different is due to the automatic color-balance feature in the camera.
At least there are three pieces that are 1/5. Any more people sharing than that and things are going to get ugly.
It's a hammerhead hammerhead shark. A model of a hammerhead shark made of hammerheads.
This box is both a birthday present and contains the rest of the presents. The keys to the 18 locks are also inside, so the recipient is going to have to pick their way in.
This person mopped the floor of their LA apartment two days before this picture was taken. However, they also had the windows open during those days, letting in the dirty air.
I wouldn't buy one of my own because it's not a very efficient way to store pens — either the decorative part faces the wall or your pens do — but it's definitely worth a chuckle or two.
Kudos to the artist, who did a great job making it look so realistic.
For the record, "Made in China" in French is "fabriqué en Chine."
I'm going to choose to believe this is to allow people in wheelchairs to enjoy the greenery and not simply there to make the job easier for the guy mowing the lawns.
Unfortunately, this rose has a bad case of spider mites, and it will ultimately be the flower's doom.
But nor is it a space station. it's actually just a remarkably spherical cloud that looks so soft that I want to cuddle it.
This one's swirls look like a beautiful blue rose. It's a shame that it'll need to be destroyed, but at least the painter appreciated it enough to snap a photo first.
These little pea crabs aren't that uncommon since the species lives inside the shells of mussels and even oysters. They're totally edible, so consider them a little bonus snack.
These are actually slices of a lime with an ungodly amount of pith.

And boy, what a sacrifice someone had to make to find that out. Science is a harsh master.
It's what's inside the container that counts, right? Right? Yeah, maybe not. Neat phenomenon, but not a huge vote of confidence.
And they're great! But for something that had millions of eyes on it, do you think anybody would actually have seen all those little pineapples?
Just in the background is Cafe du Monde, famous for its powdered sugar beignets. Check out the ground under the benches — powdered sugar all over the place.
Purple skies typically show up after heavy rains, when large particles in the air get washed away, leaving smaller particles behind, which causes light to scatter.
I wonder if Michael Bay knows about this? It could save some heavy CGI budget to just use the reflection off a window instead.
It's even more special than it seems, because the geyser in question is now considered almost inactive for how seldom it erupts.
Lots of things can cause a flower to get confused when it's growing, but this is usually the result of environmental factors.
