16 Freaky Things That Don"t Belong In This World

For about as long as we’ve been around, we’ve wondered why bad things need to happen to good people. Most of us are just trying to live our lives and aren’t trying to bother anybody, so we can find ourselves expecting the world to leave us alone in turn.

Unfortunately, it seems that “if I don’t bother them, they don’t bother me” really only works for bees.

For everything else, many of us can just find ourselves at the wrong place at the wrong time and we’re suddenly forced to deal with a situation that seemed to come out of nowhere. Whether it’s a sudden disaster or something nightmarish and unexplainable crossing our paths, they can make us wonder what we did to deserve them. But of course, that doesn’t usually matter and these things will sometimes just happen.

Even if we’re still trying to figure out what happened in these 16 photos, they’re definitely things we don’t want to happen to us.

COMMENT and tell us about the times the world decided to be a jerk to you.

1. Yikes, Santa looks absolutely terrifying when he’s on fire.

It really doesn’t help that the only clue we have to his expression is one large, unblinking eye.

2. The wildfires gripping Tennessee are so intense, they’re actually melting the metal on cars.

Although the fire has been slowed down by firefighters and heavy rainfall, the threat is still very real. Now, 14,000 people who were forced to evacuate wonder what’s left for them to return to.

3. This is apparently a “facial fitness device” called Pao.

Like many similar devices of the past, it’s not likely to actually do much except look really creepy.

4. This man’s gravestone was built like this because he wanted to look into his wife’s face for all eternity.

While that’s a very nice and romantic reason for this, I wonder if there was a way to construct it that didn’t look like he was carrying a severed head. 

However, sometimes the strange things we see are just as sinister as they look.
