Author F. Scott Fitzgerald once wrote, “Let me tell you about the very rich. They’re not like you and me at all.” We tend to admire the wealthy and notice how they differ from us: the fancy cars they drive, the designer clothes they wear, and the luxurious yachts they charter for trips to the French Riviera. However, you might not notice how wealth alters people’s personalities unless you have close ties to the affluent or work for a wealthy family. The good news is that we have you covered. We have compiled a collection of bizarre things that rich friends and employers have done, both humorous and disturbing, as told by Reddit users.

Money Saving

Many of us suffer from a fundamental misunderstanding of what the wealthy are like. Many of us automatically attribute their wealth to their affluent parents and picture them living ostentatious lifestyles as a result. Certainly, that is true of some wealthy people. However, that’s not true of everyone.

Examine this tale as an illustration. This is a woman who appears to have earned at least some of her wealth the hard way by strictly controlling her spending to remain within her means. Although this woman had some strange habits (like wearing designer jewelry to the gym), it’s encouraging to see that we, too, can become wealthy through thrift.

Being frugal as opposed to being cheap

The benefits of frugality have already been lauded elsewhere in this article. A quick way to have more money is to not waste the money you already have on dumb junk, so I encourage everyone to adopt my frugal lifestyle. Frugality is a commendable trait, but it should still have boundaries.

That’s because some people confuse thrift with being cheap, and there’s a significant difference between the two. Also, never treat a guest in your home like a cheap jerk. Even if they work for you, it’s still petty and rude to buy them the cheapest coffee you can find. Get the woman a good cup of coffee. It won’t put you in debt forever.

Voluntary Fasting vs. Involuntary Fasting

Being a live-in nanny has always seemed strange to me. Can you imagine spending all of your time at work? Your employer has control over your personal life.

What do you do, for instance, if you usually eat with the family, but sometimes nobody in the family feels like eating? I mean, in this situation, you should probably speak up and advocate for yourself, or at the very least, make yourself a sandwich, but doing so can be difficult and scary when dealing with an employer, especially if you’re afraid of losing your job.

Inundated with Money

The next tale is mind-boggling in its own way. Most of the time, we assume that the events depicted on screen are fabricated for dramatic effect. The wealthy can afford to buy an outfit, wear it once, and then toss it. The wealthy shell out to reserve an entire eatery to themselves.

Another example is affluent people filling a hot tub with pricey, bottled water. That’s so absurd and wasteful that I think we’d all be forgiven for thinking it couldn’t possibly be true. But this guy claims to have witnessed it happening more than once! Something about this is beyond my comprehension. Is it true that Evian water is more beneficial to the skin? Is it true that inhaling Evian steam is more soothing than regular steam? What the heck is going on, right?

Really Bad Hygiene

For the wealthy, having their home cleaned on a regular basis is a luxury that comes with the territory. As a result, having a dirty home is an unacceptable excuse for the wealthy. Well, that’s an odd tale. Until you discover that the parents had a history of poor personal hygiene, in that light, the whole thing becomes clear.

Even so, if I’ve learned anything from movies and magazines, it’s that the wealthy are always hosting dinner parties and cocktail gatherings. If your silverware is dirty, you can’t have guests over. Or, at the very least, you can have each person over once before they decide they would rather die than set foot in your house ever again.

Catastrophic

If you have white poodles and you want them to keep their white coats, what should you do? What if you used the same solution you do for your laundry—plain old bleach? Please don’t get a poodle if you really thought that was the answer. , for that matter, a dog of any breed.

We need to point out that the woman in question was described as “elderly,” so it’s possible that she was suffering from dementia rather than actually believing that bleaching her dogs was a good idea. It’s worth noting that you can buy specialized shampoos for white pets if you’re interested.

Feeling the Cool Airflow

In the following case, I find myself empathizing with both parties. Casual nudity, on the other hand, is extremely widespread in Germany, unlike in many other countries. The health benefits of going nude, especially when exposed to natural light, are widely touted by proponents of the Freikörperkultur (free body culture) ideology.

But that’s the sort of thing you should caution your hired help about, especially if they’re not from the same country where that’s the norm. If you intend to go nude not only on beaches but also at the dinner table, you should probably let her know in advance.

Indulge My Dog with Only the Finest!

I get the lady’s point of view. If you treat your dog like a child, as some people do, then it’s understandable that you’d want to provide it with the finest amenities, including expensive bottled water. Even though I disagree with the decision and think it’s wasteful, I can understand the motivation behind it.

But, like, has this lady any idea what mischief a canine can get into? When she turns her back, I’d be willing to bet a few quarters that the dog is drinking from the toilet, eating its own feces, and lapping at mud puddles. As a result, you should give up on trying to feed your dog only the best quality food.

Give Me the Socks

When I was a poor college student, I refused to buy more socks when I was running dangerously low. Therefore, when the holiday season arrived, and people inquired as to what I wanted, I requested nothing more than a new pair of socks. And they came through like gangbusters. That’s the most socks I’ve ever had at once, too. Some of the pairs I believe I still have some.

All of this is to say that, despite appearances, I don’t find this one all that strange. It’s possible the guy had an unusual preoccupation with socks, but it’s also quite feasible that he simply acquired a large number of socks through some means and decided to keep them until they wore out.

I Can See His Point.

Regarding the following tale, I find myself with mixed feelings. On the one hand, it’s admirable that this wealthy man didn’t fill rooms he never planned to live in with unnecessary furniture. He did not cave to peer pressure and waste a lot of money decorating his home in a particular style.

Contrarily, the author makes a good point in arguing that there is no point in purchasing a home of excessive size if you have no intention of living there. Buying a smaller home would have saved you money that you could have put toward a nice vacation or several hundred steak dinners. Take a deep breath, and use your brain.

Bargain with the Chips

The value of thrift has already been established elsewhere in this article. Knowing when to be lavish and when to be frugal is an important part of being frugal. Spend lavishly on something you care deeply about and will use frequently, but be more frugal with less important purchases.

Some things, however, should not be dismissed as trivial. Being a welcoming and accommodating host, especially to the friends of your children, fits the bill. If you have a guest over and they’ve been nice to your kid, you might as well let them pig out on potato chips. This is not a difficult task. If it costs you an extra $2, so what?

Behavior That Is Completely Worthless

Some people’s sense of entitlement is, well, astounding. That and their laziness. I really dislike cleaning, so it’s not surprising that I sometimes fantasize about hiring a maid service.

But even if that were the case, I wouldn’t dream of asking them to drive an hour just to dispose of my trash. Taking out the trash shouldn’t take more than a minute or so, and that’s true for any size of home. Why would you expect someone to spend two hours doing something you could do in one?

Keep Out of the Basement

Try reading the next piece and convincing me that it doesn’t set the stage for a horror flick. In the gentle Southern hills stands a grand and stately old mansion. While on her maid’s job in this new town, our protagonist can’t help but be impressed by its picturesque landscape and assumes the locals have it pretty well.

But soon, she realizes that something isn’t quite right. Despite the lavish exterior, the home’s interior is surprisingly run-down, especially the kitchen and bathroom. She must be strictly forbidden from venturing into the cellar at any time. Then one day, she can’t help but peek, and what she sees there is shocking! Maybe the twist that “the basement is full of old clothes” isn’t the most effective for a horror film. But even so.

Overall, It’s Just Weird.

Listen up, author of this piece: you’re right. It is strange that all of your boss’s underwear was so tattered. If she has a high-powered position that requires her to dress the part, then surely a woman with her wealth could afford some nice undergarments.

Yet, it is very strange that you rummaged through her underwear drawer. Even if you had reason to suspect that her underwear was in poor condition, putting it away without her asking is weird and totally inappropriate behavior on your part as an employee. Before you start judging others, you should focus on improving yourself.

In this case, only the best will do.

I never really got into Legos as a kid, so I was surprised as an adult to see how much some of the sets cost. We’re talking tens to hundreds of dollars for some of them. To put it simply, if you love them, it’s all for the best. Spending a ton of cash on ritzy Lego sets for a kid who isn’t old enough to play with them seems like a terrible waste of money.

I’m curious if these parents are aware that there’s a version of Legos designed specifically for younger children called Duplos. Just saying it seems like it might be nice to get your kid a toy that he or she might enjoy. If I had to choose a toy based on one criterion, that would be it.

Toss and Turn

As you can see, I’m just as susceptible to the allure of a bargain as the next guy. When there’s a great sale, I’ve been known to buy five pounds of almonds even though I only need a few. I bought two pairs of the same black leggings when they went on sale because I knew I would wear through one pair quickly and then switch to the backup pair.

However, I only used examples of manageable, low-impact actions. I mean, five pounds of almonds is way too much, but I think I have enough room in my pantry to store them all. No matter how small your home is, it is impossible to accommodate four bathtubs, and you aren’t even getting rid of the ones you already have. Not sane, even if the price of the bathtub was a steal.

Tidiness Is Appropriate Before God

Also, I can’t decide how I feel about this. Obviously, it’s insane to hire a maid service and have them come three times a week if you only use the house a handful of times a year. It would probably be fine if the housekeeper only cleaned it once a week or once a month.

In contrast, I’m sure the housekeeper is thrilled to have landed the dream job she’s always wanted. Just picture yourself at your weekly cleaning on a Wednesday. So you take a look around and tell yourself, “Well, it’s still sparkling clean because no one has been in here since the last time I cleaned it on Monday.” After that, you sweep the floor and exit. I’m willing to bet that woman is having a great time at the bank. But I’m not sure how that squares with the principle of never wasting food.

The Rich Yet Affordable

I find it endlessly fascinating to hear about people who spend lavishly in some areas of life while being extremely frugal in others. Perhaps the father in this story is trying to instill in his children an appreciation for hard work and financial responsibility by having them pay for a portion of their meals.

However, the mother’s obsession with collecting shampoo and conditioner samples from hotels is a bit more puzzling and becomes completely bizarre when you consider that she never uses any of them. Doesn’t she realize she can go out and buy her own shampoo now that she has her own money?

Evidently a Enthusiastic Blu-Ray Admirer

I’m a huge Blu-ray fan. It seems I’m not one of those people who believes it’s okay to eat the rich. They worked hard for their money, and I believe it is their right to do whatever they please with it. Obviously, it would be awesome if more people were willing to make charitable contributions, but ultimately, it is their money, and I have no right to criticize how they choose to spend it.

However, there is one exception to this rule, and that is the present circumstance. How can you be so casual about spending such a large sum of money without even making sure the jet you’re considering buying has a Blu-ray player, which seems to be a deal breaker for this guy? And it’s beyond me why you’d rather have lawyers handle it. How much do you think you’ll spend per hour with them?

To the Flames

This is such an emotional roller coaster of a story with an unexpected and heartbreaking conclusion. We’re talking about going from having nothing to having everything, complete with flashy cars, fickle friends, and a devastating house fire.

But do you want to know the most important thing I have taken away from this story? If you win the lottery, your first order of business should be to purchase homeowners insurance. Second, for the same reason, you shouldn’t store large amounts of cash in large bags inside your house. If your home burns down, you might lose everything inside, including the charred remains of your Lamborghini.

Nobody Has a Clue Here

The characters in the next piece aren’t bad guys so much as they are incredibly oblivious. That goes for the story’s author as well. Who accepts a minimum wage position that requires a two-hour daily commute? Sweetie, I swear there are low-paying jobs in the neighborhood.

Then, there’s the couple that’s the focus of the narrative. To be honest, I’m not as taken aback as the author seems to be by the fact that they failed to appreciate the great distance from which she actually hailed. For what reason would they come to that conclusion? The expectation was probably that she would choose a job that would have a manageable commute. The smell of the husband is what shocked me the most about this story. It always surprises me to find married people who stink. Why don’t their significant others chime in?

Declined

If you plan on making significant purchases while away from home, you may want to contact your bank or credit card company in advance to let them know you will be traveling and will be using the card. If they notice a large purchase coming from a location you don’t typically shop from, they may flag it as credit card fraud and cancel the transaction.

Even though I’m not particularly well off, don’t get out much, and don’t have many opportunities to make truly substantial purchases, I do know this to be true. If I know that, then why don’t these wealthy people? How often do they take such big trips or make such large purchases? What the heck is going on?

How to Get Used to a Hotel

Close your eyes and think of an absurd purchase you would make if you were flush with cash. What do you think about owning an exotic monkey? Planning on purchasing a Segway so that you can swiftly traverse the city? Why not have a harpist play for you every night while you eat?

If you had an infinite amount of money, you might consider paying for an extra night at the hotel even if you don’t plan on using it. Does this dude not know that each guest’s room is cleaned after they leave? It’s also possible that your hotel room could be dirty even if it hasn’t been occupied for a day if you’re staying in a particularly bad establishment and they don’t clean it at all. Unfortunately, I think he hasn’t given this much consideration.

Congratulations, the wealthy!

In the next piece, we see someone complaining about the strange activities of wealthy people when in my opinion, these people are just being reasonable. I think it says more about the author than it does about the companies mentioned.

To begin with, is it really so unreasonable for them to have a babysitter on hand if they plan on going out drinking with friends and are worried that they won’t be in a fit state to watch the kids? Second, if you can help it, please reuse your plastic grocery bags. The environmental damage caused by single-use plastics is staggering. There should be nothing but praise for this family.

Nothing to Gain Here

Frankly, I’m not sure anyone in the next entry is making a particularly good impression. It’s not ideal if the employer in question was cruel and nasty and if she paraded around in a bikini in front of the staff.

However, the author also comes across as rude at times. So she hung out with guys a lot younger than she was. So what if everyone agreed to it? As an added insult, calling an elderly lady “crusty” and having “reptilian skin” is not a very nice thing to say. Perhaps there’s more than one vile character in this tale, and the homeowner isn’t the worst of them.

True KO

Where Were You While I Was Sleeping? If you haven’t already, I recommend you do so. Please wait for me. So, are you back now? The scene in which Lucy opens Peter’s wallet to reveal pictures of his family only to find photos of Peter is one of my favorite jokes from the film because it hints at what a narcissistic jerk Peter really is.

I think we may have stumbled upon the inspiration for that scene in real life. Suppose you have your own family, people you claim to love and cherish, but all you have in your home are pictures of yourself. Even if you’re a famous boxer, give them at least some of your attention.

Origins from a Variety of Places

Dating someone who doesn’t come from the same socioeconomic class can be challenging. The way our parents handled money can affect how we view and handle money in our own lives. One’s relationship with money can vary greatly depending on one’s upbringing, and those who were pampered as children are likely to view money in a different light than those who came from less privileged backgrounds.

Growing up wealthy and dependent on one’s parents is a blessing that has nothing to do with the value of the experience. However, if you aren’t financially stable as a child, transitioning into adulthood can be difficult, and you may end up relying on others to help you out.

50/50

Not too long ago, many women were barred from the workforce, making it the man’s responsibility to provide for his wife or girlfriend. In recent years, however, attitudes have shifted dramatically, and more couples are splitting bills evenly.

An essential step toward a less chauvinistic society is to divide everything in half. However, things can get complicated when one partner earns significantly more money than the other and refuses to cut back on spending. It’s sad and harmful to the relationship to miss out on life because your partner can’t afford certain experiences.

Changes in the Wealthy Dynamo

Thanks to the internet and reality shows (looking at you, Real Housewives and Kardashians), we now know that the wealthy can be as insane and malicious as anyone else. On the other hand, this person learned firsthand how dangerously insane the wealthy can be. You’ve been warned: the ending is bad!

You’d think that with so much money being spent on private jets and gourmet meals, there would be plenty of opportunity for arguments, but alas, peace of mind is priceless. At least she had that insight and didn’t settle for an unfulfilling existence despite its material trappings.

Car Mania

There are many possible explanations for the protagonist’s anger in the following tale. Perhaps his schedule was full of errands. He could have been on his way to pick up his kids from school, take his sick mother to her dialysis appointments, or simply satisfy his craving for Chik-fil-A at the drive-through. It’s not out of the question that this guy really needed wheels for important reasons.

But if, as this author assumes, he just wanted to drive himself home from work—a home from which he could have walked in five minutes—then perhaps he should relax. Perhaps he could relax after a nice walk.

Collapse Into Monkey Craze

Let’s be honest here: who among us has never wished they could keep a monkey as a pet? I mean, please tell me I’m not the only person here who has secretly always wanted a monkey as a pet. They are so adorable! They’re great climbers and have sage expressions on their monkey faces.

Eventually, though, I realized what this couple apparently did not: keeping a monkey as a pet is bad for everyone involved. Also, I don’t think a monkey would do well in a lab if it wasn’t suitable as a pet. What the heck is a test child, anyway? Is this some kind of strange new fad in parenting that I’ve somehow managed to avoid?

Stay Awake

This doesn’t sound so much like an odd occurrence as it does, like someone finding out why a certain couple is so wealthy. If you want to get rich, you’ll have to pull n some serious time and effort. This, of course, necessitates that you find a way to maintain lucidity.

Naturally, this makes me very concerned for this couple, as caffeine is not good for you, and drinking a lot of it is especially bad for you. I’m curious if there’s been any research into whether or not high achievers are more likely to experience health issues associated with caffeine consumption.

Influence of Streisand

Have you heard of the Streisand Effect, in which people’s natural curiosity is piqued when you try to hide something from them? It’s named after Barbra Streisand, who tried to have photos of her home removed from the web but instead made people curious about seeing and sharing them.

Just five minutes ago, this woman’s home had absolutely zero appeal to me. I can’t wait to check it out in person now that I know she has been trying to hide its location from Google Maps. Even if it’s just to see her platinum reindeer, perhaps we should all take a field trip and check it out.

The Brat Pack

There are, in my opinion, only two possible directions for a person’s life to go in if they are born into affluence. Because of the potential damage that their children’s exposure to the family’s wealth and status could cause, some parents take extra steps to ensure that their offspring develop into well-adjusted adults. Of course, I have my eye on Kate Middleton, the most popular member of the British royal family.

There are also those who, despite their best intentions, turn out to be entitled brats like the kids in this tale. It makes me wonder if the parents realize what a disservice they are doing by allowing their children to develop into such vile brats.

Why Are You Still Mad at That Tree?

I don’t automatically look down on city dwellers who buy a house in the suburbs and try to pass themselves off as farmers; I’m sure there are some very nice people who have made this choice.

A part of me is puzzled by people who relocate to the country in the hopes of relieving emotional stress through physical activity, only to spend their time aimlessly hacking away at trees. There’s no way the countryside would benefit from that.

Recreational Area

This next tale is very endearing and good, in my opinion. Sure, if you are having trouble making rent, the idea of dropping a ton of cash on a toy for the kids to play on may seem shocking. On the other hand, I appreciate the thoughtfulness of the parents who bought this for their kids.

Many parents resort to forcing their children to watch television or play video games in order to keep them quiet. Incredible as it may sound, this couple actually encouraged their children to play outside, enjoy nature, and use their creativity. In other words, you’ve done a great job as a Formula One driver. Don’t give up!

Massive Issues With Food Waste

I think we’re all horrified and fascinated by the number of preservatives in our food, so the topic of food that never goes bad is always a hit at social gatherings. People claim that Twinkies don’t spoil and that McDonald’s burgers don’t either, but I’ve also heard that the latter isn’t true and that the former just dries out first and then molds.

A Monster Energy drink, on the other hand, would be able to survive a nuclear winter if I had been asked to guess its shelf life. Nothing in a Monster, as far as I can tell, happens by accident. When I heard that some people actually buy cases of Monster energy drinks just to throw them away, I was shocked.

In other words, don’t forget to leave a tip.

Baristas and waiters typically don’t make much money and depend heavily on tips. That means that no matter how well they perform their duties, their pay will ultimately come from the goodwill of others. Some customers, like the guy in the following story, don’t think it’s appropriate to leave tips for wait staff.

This prominent lawyer frequented a neighborhood bagel shop, where he would routinely leave a quarter for the waitress. Did he seriously consider his quarter to be a generous tip of which he could be proud? Did he seriously believe that by helping this waitress, he would earn her undying gratitude?

Gift-giving Season

The true value of Christmas presents, and of any gift, lies not in how much money was spent but in the care and attention that was put into their creation. So, “it’s the thought that counts,” as the saying goes. The problem arises when it becomes clear that neither money nor thought was put into the present. This person experienced this exact thing when they received a Christmas card from a coworker that completely baffled them.

What’s worse is that everyone in the office knows this particular coworker is extremely wealthy, yet they still bought them the cheapest card available. Actually, that’s pretty strange. Why bother giving anything at all when they could have spent more money on a nicer card and clearly didn’t put much effort or thought into choosing this card?

Basically, do you have a Venmo account I can use?

As a general rule, it’s not a good idea to keep tabs on loved ones because nobody likes a cheapskate. If you cover the bill for them occasionally — especially if you can afford to do so — you shouldn’t make a big deal out of it or ask for repayment unless you’ve lent them a substantial sum of money.

Someone obviously didn’t get the memo. He repaid his wife’s mom for a $4 soda. It would be impolite and tasteless regardless of whether or not he was as wealthy as the OP claims. The fact that his income is over $500,000 per year makes the situation even more intolerable.

Also, not one cent more

Look, you and I might think this is very strange, but it’s how the wealthy keep their wealth and how some of them get it in the first place. It’s counterintuitive, but it’s hard to imagine how someone could remain so wealthy without setting limits on their spending.

Their refusal to pay the extra dollar for bread probably makes perfect sense to them. They can justify spending $45 on a bottle of wine, but they would never pay more than $1 for bread from a local bakery or anything else that isn’t absolutely necessary for the meal.

To Put It Simply, That’s Just a Hat

We have all heard tales of spoiled, condescending affluent people, as well as those who are simply clueless and out of touch. Here, however, is a tale about a wealthy individual who is also violent and a genuine threat to society.

What gives you the right to demand another person’s hat to the point of threatening murder if they don’t give it to you? My best guess is that this stems from a mix of mental and emotional issues brought on by extreme wealth because not even the wealthiest and craziest individuals are this insane.

issues with pets

That next family fascinated me because they hired an au pair to live with them and a pet sitter to visit their home when they went on vacation. Just because they didn’t trust the au pair to take good care of their pet? If that’s the case, it’s at once hilarious and tragic that they place greater emphasis on the care of animals than on the care of children. If they did that, it would reveal a lot about what’s important to them.

I’m sure the pet sitter and au pair were happy with the arrangement overall, though, because they both earned money with minimal effort and shared household duties. That is the dream job right there!

How to Clean Your House

Living with someone who had never had to clean before and therefore did not know how would drive me absolutely crazy. She really ought to inquire with her folks as to whether or not they would be willing to pay for a maid for us, and I feel like I might start dropping hints about this. That’s the best-case scenario, for sure.

And please hear me out on this. Her method of cleaning is absolutely fascinating. I mean, I realize that it’s nuts, and when I clean, I use actual cleaning materials in the way that they’re intended to be used, but now I’m so curious: do you think that would work? I mean, you’re just kind of bleaching everything. It should clean things up, at least in theory.

Absolutely Brilliant!

So, you have a thing for eating hard-boiled eggs, huh? Certainly not to that extreme. There are those who can’t get enough of hard-boiled eggs. Perhaps she was inspired by Gaston’s song in Beauty and the Beast: “When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large, and now that I am grown, I eat five dozen eggs so that I am roughly the size of a barge.”

However, I fail to see the logic in consistently producing twelve, eating two, and discarding eight. Does she have no idea that hard-boiled eggs last forever in the fridge? One of their best qualities is that they are so adaptable. That, and it’s loads of fun to dye them and hide them all over the yard for Easter.

The Sheets and Laughs Experiment

This next story has me scratching my head. It’s not even a toy-related issue. Some parents simply don’t buy their children toys because they are adamant that their kids spend as much time as possible outside, engaging with the world and not being sheltered from it. We have no problem with that.

The kids’ beds don’t have sheets on them. I’m going to assume a premise here and say that having bedsheets is the norm. If the woman is indeed wealthy, then why did she omit to purchase bed linens for her family? Why would a mother who has been described as “amazingly kind” would choose to go without buying her children proper bedding?

Just Doesn’t Make Any Sense

Fruit consumption? Yes, that’s a fantastic plan of action. Considering how much-added sugar many of these foods contain, I wouldn’t say they’re the healthiest option. Although this may be the case, fruit is still preferable to a wide variety of other foods. Have someone else do the fruit peeling for you? Slightly odd, but by all means, indulge if you have the means to do so. Even if it is for something trivial, I’m sure someone is happy to get paid.

But having someone you don’t know leaving peeled fruit in your refrigerator at a home you rarely visit? Seriously, what gives with that? Why do they keep fruit on hand as if someone might walk in at any second and want some? If that’s the case, the housekeeper can probably buy and peel some within a short amount of time. This is totally insane.

The Perfect Family

Look, it’s a sad reality that many families and couples have a lot of issues behind closed doors despite how things appear on the outside. There are many reasons why people prefer to keep their troubles to themselves while putting on a show for the rest of the world.

Perhaps they want everyone to believe their marriage is perfect so that no one feels sorry for them or tries to intervene. Who can say? The fact that this au pair felt this way is unfortunate because, as she points out, au pairs typically integrate into the host family.

Promoted on Television

I suppose you’re bound to see some strange things when your job requires you to go to people’s homes every day. As we’ve seen in this thread, the wealthy lead such radically different lives from the rest of us that touring their mansions is like going on an anthropological expedition.

In this case, the TV installer visited a mansion and discovered that there were already 14 TVs present, including six in the bathrooms. What’s the point of having a dozen screens in here? How big is that restroom, exactly? Not to mention, we have no business prying into the reasons why his wife is sleeping elsewhere in the house or why his children refuse to speak to him.

Totally Ruined

Having wealthy parents could have both positive and negative effects. If you were constantly showered in opulence and given your heart’s desire, you might develop a warped view of the world. It’s not surprising that affluent kids lose touch with reality to some extent, right?

On the other hand, you’d have a great childhood where you always got what you wanted (including a sweet car on your sixteenth birthday), where you never went hungry, where you never wore out your clothes, where you never had to say no to anything you asked for. Forget it; it’s not much of a sword and a shield. Sure, it would have been great to be a privileged kid.

You are, of course, but what am I?

To be honest, I wasn’t expecting to find the next story so irritating. Perhaps the experience of gaining wealth through chance and then being a jerk about it is much more unpleasant than having it bestowed upon you at birth. It’s somewhat more understandable that someone who was born into wealth would be completely out of touch with reality.

I mean, really, dude, you’re a schlub who can’t run a business, and the only reason you have any money at all is that you married someone who was rich, and you have the audacity to complain about people who are “entitled”? There needs to be some serious self-reflection on your part, pal.

No Big Deal, It’s Only a Hamburger

You can still be a decent human being even if you become wealthy. You have the option of becoming a super wealthy person. They’re out there in droves, and they’re the ones who put their wealth to good use and avoid being entitled, rude snobs. But there are also plenty of wealthy people who have allowed their wealth to corrupt them.

This guy, for instance. It’s perfectly fine to decline a burger because the bun has sesame seeds on it, especially if you ordered it without realizing that it would come on that kind of bun. I can’t think of a single circumstance where it would be okay to throw the burger at the chef. You might as well just expect the guy to spit in your burger when he remakes it.

Seems Like a Good Time With These Folks

In the next tale, I have many inquiries about the household. To begin, there’s no reason a kid that age would require such a complex hair routine. Do you want their hair to be shiny so that you can get them modeling jobs? Perhaps this was all meant to encourage hair growth in the child who was born bald, but it seems excessive.

Second, it’s great that you’re trying to feed your kids healthy food, but are you positive they’re getting everything they need from a diet consisting solely of fish and salad? Third, wouldn’t it be better to stop worrying about whether or not a child’s hair is in good condition and whether or not their diet is balanced and instead concentrate on why a child of that age is not yet potty trained?

Procedural Approach

Now I’m starting to second-guess myself because of the author’s condescending tone, but… Shouldn’t you wear an Apple Watch on your shoe instead of counting steps with it? In any case, it wouldn’t mistakenly count steps when all you were doing was swinging your arms. That makes a lot of sense.

It’s not hard for a smartwatch to mistake arm motion for walking. Out of curiosity, I once wore my smartwatch on my right hand while strumming a guitar, and by the end of a two-hour session, I had logged seven thousand steps. Putting it on your foot might give you a more reliable total. That’s all I’m saying.

Fashion is a constantly evolving industry that often pushes the boundaries with stylish and innovative designs. However, it is not uncommon for fashion to venture into the realm of strange and unconventional garments. From inflatable balloon pants to towel gowns and even the infamous Moschino baguette bag, some designs leave us scratching our heads in bewilderment. Despite the best intentions of designers to showcase their creativity and be recognized as visionaries, they sometimes forget to consider the practicality of their designs for everyday wear.

Footwear is no exception to this trend. Over the years, we have seen some truly bizarre footwear designs that have left us questioning the judgment of those who created them. Thankfully, an Instagram account named “crimesagainstshoemanity” has compiled some of the most outlandish footwear designs for our amusement. So sit back, prepare to laugh, squirm, and be amazed at the same time as we explore the weirdest footwear trends.

Fishy Footwear: A New Trend to Watch Out For

At first glance, it’s quite evident that there is something unusual about these shoes. When it comes to footwear, comfort should be a top priority. Nobody wants to suffer from painful corns, calluses, or ingrown toenails caused by uncomfortable shoes.

Unfortunately, these fish-inspired shoes are not likely to provide the comfort that one is looking for. Instead, they are guaranteed to attract attention and elicit strange looks from those around you. The unusual design of these shoes makes them look like they belong in a lake rather than on one’s feet, and they are sure to raise eyebrows wherever they are worn.

The Fish Footwear Phenomenon: Strange Looks Guaranteed

The term “camel toe” is not a new one and has been discussed extensively in the past. However, in this case, the term refers to a fashion faux pas that needs to be addressed immediately. This particular type of camel toe is located on the foot, making it an even more unfortunate occurrence.

While wearing these shoes may be a fun way to shock your Sunday school peers, it is not appropriate for other settings such as the office, social events, or school. It’s best to avoid wearing these shoes in public, as they are likely to be met with disapproval and confusion.

Confusing Shoes: Coming or Going?

This pair of shoes is quite unique, as they seem to be indecisive and can’t seem to decide if they are coming or going. For individuals who have trouble making decisions, these shoes would be a perfect fit. They would make for a great gift for these individuals, serving as a humorous reminder of their indecisiveness.

While these shoes may make for an interesting conversation piece, it’s not advisable to wear them in public. They are likely to cause confusion among those around you, as they would not be able to determine which direction you are walking in. This could result in people accidentally bumping into you, leading to an unpleasant experience. It’s best to keep these shoes as a collectible item rather than wearing them in public.

Grass on Your Feet? A Footwear Design Gone Wrong

The thought of moss growing on one’s feet due to poor hygiene is a disgusting one. However, the shoes in question are not actually covered in moss, but instead, they are designed to look like moss and grass are growing on them.

While this design may not be as revolting as real moss on one’s feet, it still raises the question of what the designer was thinking. It’s hard to imagine that anyone would want to wear shoes that resemble unkempt feet, and it’s even harder to understand why the designer thought that this design would be a hit in the footwear market. It’s safe to say that these shoes are not something that anyone would want to be caught dead wearing.

Spaghetti and Meatballs Shoes? No Thank You

Spaghetti and meatballs is a classic dish that is loved by many and is hard to resist. It’s a meal that is best enjoyed on a plate, where one can savor the flavors, and fill their belly to their heart’s content.

However, the idea of having this meal on our shoes is nothing short of an atrocity. Wearing shoes that resemble spaghetti and meatballs is not something that anyone would want to do. Not only is it unappealing, but it also gives off the impression that one has lost their mind. It’s best to keep such designs far away from our feet and opt for footwear that is both stylish and practical.

Soda Bottle Opener Shoes: Convenient or Annoying?

Opening soda bottles can be a challenging task, especially when you don’t have the right tool at hand. However, with a special pair of shoes, you can enjoy your soda easily . These shoes come with a built-in bottle opener, making it easy for you to open your soda and quench your thirst.

While these shoes are indeed useful, it’s important to keep in mind that not everyone would appreciate being approached by strangers for help in opening their soda bottles. It’s possible that the person wearing these shoes might get frustrated with the constant requests for assistance and might even resort to hitting someone with the bottle. Hence, it’s advisable to use these shoes only for personal use and not as a tool to help others.

Glittery Skater Heels: Skate Your Way to the Party

Have you ever found yourself torn between wearing glittery heels that grab attention and skating shoes that allow you to move freely? Well, now you don’t have to choose between the two. A new type of footwear has been introduced that combines the best of both worlds. With these shoes, you can now have the best of both worlds and don’t have to make any compromises.

Glide into the party on your skater heels, and watch as everyone turns their heads to take notice. If you opt for a bold shade of red, you’ll stand out even more and be the center of attention. These shoes will make you feel like you’ve stepped into a different world, much like the famous quote from the classic movie “The Wizard of Oz,” “I have a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore, Toto.”

Hairy Shoes: A Footwear Design to Avoid

It’s not often that you come across shoes that look like they’ve hit puberty, and unfortunately, the result is not a pretty sight. These shoes are not only visually unappealing but they can also be quite discomforting to look at. It’s unclear where designers get their inspiration for such designs, but they seem to miss the mark with this particular creation.

It’s difficult to imagine anyone wanting to wear these shoes in public, unless it’s for the purpose of a joke or to dress up as a werewolf. These shoes just don’t have mass appeal, and it’s highly unlikely that they will be a successful product in the market. It’s best to steer clear of such designs and opt for footwear that not only looks good but is also comfortable to wear.

Shoe Pockets: The New Must-Have Accessory for Women

Women have long relied on bags as an essential accessory when going out. Bags serve as a convenient storage space for everyday items such as makeup, money, tissues, wallets, and other essentials. It’s rare to see a woman leave the house without a bag in tow.

A new type of footwear has been introduced that aims to eliminate the need for a big bag. These shoes come with pockets where women can store their essentials. While this may sound like a great idea, it also brings a security concern. With the contents of the pockets visible, it could potentially attract the attention of robbers and increase the risk of theft.

Frustrated Ballerinas Rejoice: Uncomfortable High Heels Now Available

For those who have dreamed of becoming a ballerina but never had the opportunity to fulfill their childhood aspirations, this pair of shoes offers the next best thing. However, it also comes with a high price. The discomfort and pain that come with wearing these shoes is almost unbearable to imagine.

The red color of the shoes is visually appealing, but the thought of wearing them for even just a few minutes is enough to make one cringe. Ballerinas are known for their grace and beauty, but the toll that dance takes on their feet is a well-known fact. Wearing these shoes, with their high heels and tight fit, is sure to result in discomfort and pain. It’s safe to say that these shoes are not for the faint of heart.

Minion Lovers Unite: Show Your Love for the Yellow Characters in Style

Minions are undoubtedly one of the most popular cartoon characters today, and for good reason. Their distinct yellow color, cute appearance, and humorous speech patterns have endeared them to audiences around the world. The characters have been featured in at least three movies, and it’s likely that we’ll be seeing more of them in the future.

For fans who want to show their love for the minions in a subtle and classy way, these high-heeled shoes are a great option. They are perfect for wearing to parties and formal events, as long as people don’t take a close look at them. The shoes offer a fun and unique way to express your love for the minions while still maintaining a level of sophistication and elegance.

Get Creative with Your Feet: Paint Your Shoes and Make a Statement

When wearing shoes, our feet are often hidden from view. This can be disappointing for those who enjoy showing off their favorite colors, patterns, or designs on their feet. This particular pair of shoes aims to address this issue in a unique and humorous way.

With these high-heeled, closed shoes, you can now paint your “toes” and still wear shoes that conceal your feet. While this may be a fun way to express yourself, it may not necessarily make the best impression on others. It’s important to consider how others might perceive you and the message you are sending through your choice of footwear. It’s possible that wearing these shoes may give the impression that you are eccentric or a little off-beat, which may not be the desired effect.

Eco-Friendly Footwear: Separate Ecosystem for Your Feet in a Shoe

These shoes claim to create a separate ecosystem for your feet, offering a unique way to clean and maintain hygiene. However, there are some concerns about the potential for health issues, such as the growth of fungus, that may arise from having your feet constantly soaking in soap and water.

While keeping our feet and legs clean is important, the idea of soaking them in soap and water while on the go, whether it be to work, the supermarket, or even in the office, raises some questions. It’s unclear whether this ecosystem is meant to clean the feet or if it’s simply a source of humor, but either way, it may not be the most practical solution for maintaining foot hygiene.

Lizard Lovers Beware: Creepy Shoes That Will Keep People Away

If you find yourself on a blind date that isn’t going well and you’re looking for a way out, consider showing your date this pair of shoes. The unique and somewhat creepy design is sure to be a conversation starter, but it’s also likely to put your date off and ensure that you won’t hear from them again.

These shoes are designed for those who love lizards or aspire to be like them, and they are perfect for cosplay events. However, walking in them might be a challenge, and they may not be the most practical shoes for everyday wear. Nevertheless, they are sure to make a statement and will definitely be a conversation piece.

Horse Power: Unique Horse Face Shoe That’s Both Pleased and Tired

At first glance, the horse face shoe might seem like a quirky and fun accessory. The horse’s expression appears to be both pleased and tired, as if it has been taken on long walks. However, despite its charming appearance, this shoe has the potential to be unsettling for some people, especially at night.

The idea of a horse shoe coming to life and trampling everyone in its path is a frightening thought. It brings to mind the years of hard labor that horses have undergone and raises the question of what could happen if this horse shoe were to come to life. While the horse face shoe may be intriguing and appealing to some, it’s important to consider its potential to be frightening for others.

Gotta Catch Them All: Pokemon Fan Showcases His Love on His Feet

As a true Pokemon fan, the goal is to catch them all. This person has already captured one of the creatures, Pikachu, and has it displayed right under their feet. It’s a unique way to show their love for the beloved franchise. However, with over 800 Pokemons still out there, the task of catching and displaying them all is a daunting one.

Not only does this person need to have enough pairs of shoes to accommodate all the Pokemons, but they also need to have enough space to display them. It’s a thrilling journey to catch them all, but it’s also a long one. With so many Pokemons still out there, we can only imagine how long it will take for this person to complete their collection and have all of them displayed in such a unique way.

Upcycling with IKEA: Company Goes into the Shoe Business?

IKEA, the Swedish furniture retailer, was founded in 1943 as a mail-order business. It has become one of the most valuable companies in the world, offering both affordable furniture and the famous Swedish meatballs. The company has a reputation for offering affordable and functional items for the home.

Recently, a new item has caught our attention – a shoe that could potentially be sold on IKEA’s shelves. While some IKEA products may require patience during assembly, the impact that the company has had on the furniture industry is undeniable. Will this pair of new shoes be well received by customers? Can it become a popular item in IKEA’s product line?

Keep Your Pet Fish Close with this Fish Bowl Shoe

Having a pet fish can bring joy and comfort to many people, and now, you can keep your pet close to you at all times. With the innovative design of this shoe, you can carry your fishy with you wherever you go. However, while this shoe may seem like a fun and unique way to keep your pet close, it may not be the most practical. Taking care of a fish requires regular feeding and water changes, which can be challenging to do when the fish is in your shoe. 

Additionally, it’s important to consider the well-being of the fish and make sure that it’s in a suitable environment for it to thrive. Overall, while this shoe may be a fun and creative idea, it’s important to think about the practicalities and the well-being of your pet before opting for this type of solution.

Stride in Style with Barbie-Inspired High Heels

Wearing high heels can be a fashion statement, but it can also be painful and cause long-term damage to the feet. This particular shoe design, which seems to have taken inspiration from Barbie’s legs, takes the potential for discomfort and injury to a whole new level.

Not only does it appear to be unstable and potentially difficult to walk in, but it also raises the question of how many Barbies have been dismembered to create these shoes. It’s a strange and concerning trend that we hope won’t catch on, as the last thing anyone wants is to end up in a wheelchair or with a limp due to their footwear choice.

Makeup at Your Feet: The Dual-Purpose Shoe

With the constant need to look put-together, having a practical and accessible place to store one’s makeup is essential. While the concept of a shoe that doubles as a makeup holder is innovative, the design may not be the most practical solution. 

Bending down to access makeup every time it needs to be touched up could quickly become tiresome and may not be the most hygienic option. A handbag or purse may still be the better option for keeping cosmetics within reach.

Ronald McDonald’s Missing Shoes: Found!

We can imagine that the beloved character of Ronald McDonald must be feeling quite upset at the moment. It seems that his favorite shoes have gone missing, and he has reported the incident to the authorities. We can imagine him relaying the story of how he washed his shoes and put them out to dry, only to come back in the afternoon and find them gone.

However, fear not, Ronald, as we have found your missing shoes. A single glance at them, and there is no mistaking that they belong to you. Unfortunately, we do not have any information regarding the identity of the culprit, but if you can make your way over to our location, we would be more than happy to return your shoes to you in person.

Cowboy or Beachgoer: The Confused Shoe

This pair of shoes is struggling with a sense of purpose. They seem torn between being a pair of boots or flip-flops and can’t decide whether they want to attend a rodeo or the beach. The indecision is akin to an identity crisis, which is a common experience among people who question their place in the world.

We can understand the confusion and frustration that this pair of shoes is going through. However, we believe that with time, they will eventually find their true purpose and identity. Until then, we encourage them to keep exploring their options and find what makes them happy and fulfilled.

Sneakers and Heels Combined: The Indecisive Shoe

It seems that in the world of fashion and footwear, there are no limits to creativity. However, it can also lead to some confusing and bewildering designs, such as this pair of shoes that can’t seem to decide what they want to be. On one hand, they embody the comfort and casual style of sneakers, but on the other, they also feature the elegance and sophistication of high-heeled shoes. It’s a conundrum that leaves us scratching our heads.

While it’s important for designers to push boundaries and come up with innovative ideas, it’s also crucial for them to strike a balance between creativity and practicality. Shoes should not only look good but also serve their purpose, whether it be for sports, work, or leisure. We hope that in the future, designers will come up with concepts that not only captivate the eye but also make sense.

Wrap Your Feet in Cling Wrap: A Dangerous Solution

Being in a hurry can be a stressful situation, especially when you can’t find your shoes. Some people might opt to go barefoot, while others might grab any available footwear they can find. However, the image shows that someone chose to wrap their feet in cling wrap before leaving the house. 

This is not a practical solution as thin cling wrap won’t provide much protection for the feet. It’s safe to say that this was not a comfortable experience for the person.

Candy-Filled Shoes: Sweet but Unhygienic

Having sweets within reach sounds like a great idea, but what if the sweets start to smell like feet? This could be a problem, especially if you’re at a children’s party or trick or treating. The last thing you want is for the sweets to be unappetizing.

It’s much better to keep your candies, chocolates, and other sweets in your bags or pockets where they are safe from any unwanted odors. Not only will this ensure that the sweets remain fresh and delicious, but it will also prevent any potential embarrassment or disappointment. After all, who wants to eat sweets that smell like feet?

Fashionable Footwear with a Price: The High-Heeled Shoe

Fashionable shoes, especially those made by the biggest names in the industry, often come with a price. Despite the pain and discomfort that women put themselves through, they still choose to wear these shoes because of their enviable design. But what’s the point of sacrificing comfort for fashion if the shoes don’t even receive a compliment for their appearance?

It’s a common dilemma that many women face: the desire to look good and the reality of wearing shoes that cause blisters, corns, and calluses. While some may argue that the design of the shoes compensates for the discomfort, the truth remains that uncomfortable shoes are, well, uncomfortable. It’s important to find a balance between fashion and comfort. After all, what’s the point of wearing shoes that cause pain and discomfort, especially if they don’t even receive a compliment for their appearance? The next time you’re considering a new pair of shoes, think about the comfort factor before making your purchase.

Sweaty Feet Solution: The Moisture-Absorbing Shoe

It’s a well-known fact that foot sweat can be a major source of discomfort and embarrassment for many people. While the exact causes of excessive sweating in the feet are still not fully understood, it is believed that there may be a hereditary component to it.

Despite this, the designers of this pair of shoes seem to have taken it upon themselves to offer a solution for those who suffer from excessive foot sweat. With sponges built into the design to soak up moisture, it’s clear that the intended purpose of these shoes is to help alleviate the problem. However, it’s important to note that simply soaking up the moisture may not be enough to combat the unpleasant odors that can often accompany excessive foot sweat.

Gaming Underfoot: The Computer-Loving Shoe

Finding the perfect gift for someone can be a challenge, especially if they have specific interests. If your friend is a gamer, computer enthusiast, or simply loves his PC, these shoes might just be the perfect gift for him. Not only do they reflect his personality, but they also bring his passion right under his feet.

When he’s not in front of his computer, he can still feel connected to his favorite hobby thanks to the design of these shoes. They might be considered a quirky gift, but for a nerd or gamer, it’s sure to bring a smile to their face. The best part about these shoes is that they don’t come with a hefty price tag. In the end, it’s the thought that counts, and this gift is sure to show your friend how much you care.

Teeth-Decorated Shoes: A Frightening Fashion Statement

This pair of shoes is quite the oddity. The use of teeth as a decorative element is not something that is commonly seen in the world of footwear, and it is sure to turn a few heads. The appearance of the teeth on the shoes can be unsettling for some, as it may conjure up images of being bitten or stepped on. The use of teeth in such a manner raises questions about the source of the teeth and why they have been used in this way.

The shoes are not likely to be seen as a fashion statement, as they are quite unconventional and may be perceived as frightening by some. It is important to consider the impact that our clothing and accessories have on others, and it may be wise to think twice before choosing to wear these shoes in public. While the idea behind the design may have been creative, it is important to consider the message that is being conveyed and the reactions that the shoes may elicit from others.

Money-Saving Solution for New Shoes: Phone Boxes

The purchase of the latest iPhone model can have serious consequences on one’s budget. It can leave you struggling to afford even the most basic necessities, such as shoes. However, there is a solution to this problem. If you find yourself in this predicament, you can always make use of the empty phone boxes to create your own shoes.

This woman in the photo is an example of someone who had to get creative with their limited resources. She may not have had money for shoes, but she was able to find a solution by using the phone boxes. Although the footwear she created may not be the most comfortable or durable, it is a testament to her resourcefulness. She was able to make the most out of her expensive iPhone purchase.

At Least It’s Pink – A Fashion Risk Too Far?

This footwear might look appealing to some women who love the color pink, but we have to admit, it’s just not our cup of tea. The design is a mixture of different styles, such as Crocs, Ugg boots, and Vans shoes, which in our opinion, is a little overwhelming. 

The overall appearance of the shoes looks like something Bigfoot would wear, and we can’t think of any occasion where it would be appropriate to wear them. We prefer to steer clear of such shoes.

Taking Care of Your Feet: Don’t Follow This Example

The importance of taking care of our feet cannot be overstated. Our feet are constantly in use, bearing the weight of our bodies and carrying us from one place to another. For this reason, it’s essential to treat our feet with the same love and care that we give to other parts of our body, such as our face.

Unfortunately, the woman in this picture seems to have disregarded the importance of foot care. The shoes she is wearing appear to be extremely uncomfortable and potentially damaging to her feet. We can only hope that she realizes the harm she may be causing to her feet and switches to a more suitable and comfortable pair of shoes. If she continues to wear shoes like these, we fear that her feet may suffer greatly.

Long Toenails or Toes? Protect Them with These Shoes

Cutting your toenails can have a significant impact on the health of your feet. If you cut them too close to the skin or around the corners, you could develop painful ingrown toenails. On the other hand, leaving your toenails too long can also lead to various foot problems.

When we look at these shoes, it is difficult not to think about the length of the wearer’s toenails. It almost looks like they could be exceptionally long. However, if that is the case, we are grateful that they have chosen to keep their toes covered. Long toenails can be unsightly, and it’s always a good idea to keep them well-manicured for both comfort and appearance.

The Dual-Purpose Shoes for the Athlete and Elf in You

Sometimes, when faced with limited resources or conflicting desires, we need to make choices and prioritize what is most important to us. For individuals who strive to have the best of both worlds, these shoes are designed to cater to their needs.

With these dual-purpose shoes, you have the option to embrace both your athletic side and your whimsical side. Whether you want to stay grounded or have elevated feet, these shoes provide you with the flexibility to do both. It’s a unique and innovative solution for those who want to have the best of both worlds. Imagine being able to combine the practicality of athletic shoes with the playfulness of elf shoes. How cool is that?

Shoe Fashion or Electrocution Risk?

The idea of incorporating electricity into footwear is a strange one and raises many questions. Why would designers choose to create shoes that could put the wearer at risk of electrocution? 

The presence of a long cable attached to the shoes only adds to the confusion. It appears as if the wearer would have to be connected to a device at all times, limiting their freedom of movement. This idea seems to resemble a form of house arrest, and we are left wondering about the purpose and practicality of such a design.

Lady Gaga’s Fashion Inspiration or a Fashion Faux Pas?

Lady Gaga has always been known for her bold and daring fashion choices, pushing the boundaries of what is considered acceptable in the fashion world. Throughout the years, she has made headlines with her unique and often controversial outfits, such as the infamous meat dress she wore to an awards show. Despite this, her recent fashion choices have been somewhat more toned down, but that doesn’t mean her sense of style has diminished.

When we look at this particular pair of shoes, we can’t help but think of the iconic singer and her earlier days in the entertainment industry. Her flamboyant and extravagant style is evident in these shoes, and we can easily imagine her wearing them with glittery and sparkling clothes, demanding attention and making a statement wherever she goes.

The All-in-One Shoe: Good Idea, Bad Execution

Despite the bold and unusual design of these shoes, we must acknowledge the designer’s creativity. The design of this shoe may appeal to some fathers who are looking for a versatile accessory to bring on their vacations. However, we would feel self-conscious wearing these shoes in public.

Although the concept of having multiple pockets and compartments in a shoe is innovative, the zippers may not hold up over time and become weak. We recommend avoiding this particular design, as it is likely to malfunction in the future.

Comfortable or Sporty? A Questionable Shoe Design

It’s important to note that this shoe, despite being a more reasonable option compared to the other bizarre shoes we’ve seen, is still far from ideal. The designer’s attempt at combining a moccasin and a sneaker into one shoe raises questions about their thought process. 

If we had to pick one shoe from this list to wear, we would likely choose this one, but only out of sheer necessity and with the intention of getting rid of it as soon as possible. The end result is not a suitable footwear option and is a clear violation against good taste and comfort.

Not Shoes, But Still Strange: The Flip Flop Drawings

This solution to the problem of missing shoes is not a practical one, as it offers no protection or comfort to the feet. The drawn on straps may give the illusion of flip flops, but in reality, they provide no support or cushioning for the feet. Additionally, this is not a sustainable solution for long term use.

Imagine having to draw the straps on every time you want to go out, or having to walk around with feet that are exposed to the elements and potential hazards. In conclusion, while this may seem like a creative solution in the moment, it is not a practical or long term solution for the problem of missing shoes. It is always better to invest in a proper pair of shoes that can provide comfort, protection, and support for your feet.

When the Shoe Doesn’t Fit: The Pain of Fashion

We can all relate to the situation of wanting to wear shoes that are stylish, even if they don’t fit properly. Just like Cinderella’s stepsisters, some individuals may go to great lengths to make a certain pair of shoes work for them. However, this often leads to disastrous results, such as wearing a child’s sandal that is too small for their feet.

While it is important to be fashion-forward and to look good, it is equally important to prioritize comfort and avoid sacrificing the well-being of our feet. Wearing shoes that do not fit properly can cause discomfort and even lead to foot problems in the long run. It is always better to invest in a well-fitting pair of shoes that prioritize both style and comfort.

Centaur in the City: A Shoe Design to Avoid

This pair of shoes might be suitable for individuals who have a desire to resemble a horse, but the appearance of these shoes is questionable, to say the least. Although comfort may be a factor, we are not willing to compromise our sense of fashion for it.

The color of these shoes might blend in well with various outfits, and they may be sturdy enough to withstand daily wear and tear, but the fact remains that we do not want to be mistaken for a mythical creature like a centaur. This could potentially lead to unwanted attention and even the possibility of being put on display for others to gawk at. So, we’ll pass on this footwear.

Glove Shoes: A Statement Piece for the Grand Prix Fan

This unique pair of shoes is for the fashionista who wants to make a statement and stand out in the crowd. The combination of high heels and racing gloves creates an eye-catching look that is sure to turn heads. 

The woman who wears these shoes is not afraid to be bold and different, and will feel right at home at a Grand Prix race. As she cheers on her favorite drivers, she’ll make sure everyone knows she’s a true fan. With her unique footwear, she’ll be a standout in the crowd, shouting “Go Hamilton!” and “Go Verstappen!” as she watches the race unfold.

Crocodile Leather Footwear: A Revolutionary Concept

While the authenticity of the leather used in these shoes may be impressive, it’s clear that not everyone is ready for such a unique and daring footwear concept. The intricate design, complete with the head, legs, and other parts of a crocodile, is sure to make a statement, but it may not be the kind of statement that everyone is willing to embrace.

Wearing these shoes may attract some attention, but it’s also possible that it may cause people to shy away and steer clear of the wearer. In a world where tradition still holds a strong sway, it’s understandable that not everyone is ready to embrace such a bold and unusual fashion choice.

Flood-Proof Shoes: A Creative Solution

Wwhile this solution may seem clever, it is not the most practical or safe way to deal with the issue of floods. The plastic stools may not be sturdy enough to support the weight of the person, and the cable ties may not hold up against strong currents of water. Additionally, this method does not provide any protection for the rest of the person’s body or belongings, leaving them vulnerable to the potential dangers of floodwaters.

It is always best to take proper precautions and take necessary measures to ensure safety during floods, such as elevating property, having an evacuation plan, and staying informed of weather updates and alerts. This innovative approach may be a temporary fix, but it is not a long-term solution to the problem of floods.

Sighting a hummingbird means that you have to deal with life’s challenges and are in a perfect place of healing. That’s always the case with family. It has also been said that hummingbirds have a spiritual significance. If you spot one of them, it may mean a loved one is nearby. In this case, that seems to be true. Wherever these two fly to, they will always have each other to keep them company.

In My Genes

If you are tired of those one-liners men asking you, such as “where did you get such beauty?” you wouldn’t have to waste a minute of your breath. Show them this tat, bat an eyelash, and then say, “it runs in the family.” Mom and daughter have a love for simplicity. It makes for a beautiful yet meaningful design. These blueprints define how they choose to live their lives and react to life’s adversities. Fancy getting these for you and your mom?

Where One Ends

The Buddhist symbol represents the path to enlightenment, reflecting a person’s life path. Where one person’s life ends, another person’s life begins. No matter what happens to these two and where they may find themselves, they will always have each other. This daughter is a continuity of her mom and is the means through which her mother has found her life’s purpose.

Taking After Mom

This woman had grown up seeing her mom with this tattoo. When she decided she would have one, she knew she had to get the same. Her mom was with her every step of the way, showing the artist the design she wanted to be inked on her forearm. Another thing we love about these two is that you can tell just how beautifully this mom has aged. You can see the freckles on her skin and how that contributed to the richness of that beautiful tattoo design.

Keep It In Your Pocket

When this mom had gotten this tattoo, she only thought of getting it for good luck. And now she has much to share with her daughter. It seems like she’s passing on some of the stardust she had saved in her pocket for her daughter’s journey.

In Bloom

It’s bittersweet to see your child grow up before your very eyes. You wonder where the days went as you went from nursing them to dropping them off in college. This mom watched as her daughter grew in full bloom. Once again, this tattoo design would be perfect for the gals who love simplicity. Adorn it with a color and bud of your choice. Or better yet, go for a full bouquet as this next mother-daughter duo did.

You Are My…

Don’t let this design fool you. It took over six hours to get this done. But these two claim that they have no regrets. If anything, that tattoo session only brought them closer. Sometimes, all you have to do is draw inspiration from nature.

Remember when…

Despite the years and the distance, this mother-and-daughter duo has always bonded over their love for outdoor activities. They still camp out in the wilderness and tuck themselves inside their cots while pointing at the stars in the sky. “Remember when you could barely babble ‘bear?’ It took you so many times to get it right. But I always understood you because you would keep staring at the sky as if to point out that great bear constellation,” this mom fondly recalls.

You Make Me Happy

Sometimes the secret lies in going back to the basics. You must tear away the complexities and baggage and look inward. What is it that you truly feel? Well, these two couldn’t help but hum a familiar tune. Unlike the song, this daughter knows how much her mom loves her. And nothing can ever take this little sunshine away from her mom. No one else could come between these two sunflowers.

When we think of sports, we often think of basketball, football, hockey, baseball, etc. But remember to include golf in the list of famous sports. Many golfing legends are on par with other major sports. Of course, it’s not just the players that make the game great. As the saying goes, “behind every great man, there is a great woman,” and we cannot ignore the women who support their husbands and boyfriends when they are out and about. Here’s a sneak peek into the lives of these amazing WAGs.

Kelley Cahill

Kelley Cahill became Kelley Rahm when she married Jon Rahm Rodriguez in 2019. The Spaniard pro golfer crowned world No. 1 after winning the Memorial Tournament in July 2020 seems to be the man too. Number one in Kelley Cahill’s lap. The two met at Arizona State University, where they both attended. This beautiful couple has been happily married since 2019, and they are fortunate to have a son Kepa born around November 2020, a week before the Master. Perfect timing. Otherwise, he would have missed the game! But before all this, Kelley was a javelin thrower and a gifted tennis player at Arizona State University.

Erica Herman

Eldrick Tont Woods, aka Tiger Woods, is a golf legend. He holds countless golfing records and has taken first place during his winning streak on the PGA Tour, but his personal life is still controversial. On the other hand, his girlfriend seems to have stability in life. The Florida native and Tiger officially made their relationship public at the Presidents Cup in September 2017. Tiger’s side is her since they announced it at major events, competitions, and even when they made the announcement. He was injured. She is close to Tiger’s children Charlie and Sam from his previous marriage to Elin Nordegren, Tiger’s ex-wife.

Sim Jena

American actress Jena Sims has a new role as the fiancée of Brooks Koekpa. Brooks is the fifth golf player in history to win the US Open and USPGA Championship in the same year, in October 2018. After four years of dating, Brooks boldly proposed to Jena in April 2021. Jena Sims has participated in a few films, such as Attack of the 50-Foot Cheerleader. She won the Miss Georgia Teen USA contest in 2007. She also runs a non-profit organization, Pageant of Hope, to organize beauty contests for children with cancer. Above all, she has an online presence as an influential person.

Paulina Gretzky

Paulina is the daughter of the legendary hockey on Canadian band Wayne Gretzky. She won the heart of the legendary golf Dustin Johnson, the third person holding the world’s number one position in a significant period after Tiger Woods and Greg Norman. Paulina was born in Los Angeles, California. She is a singer, actor, and model. They were fortunate to have two sons – Tatum Johnson (born in 2015) and River Jones (born in 2017). They started dating in 2012 but finally officially opened in April 2022.

Pollyanna Woodward

Despite having experienced a broken marriage, British professional golfer Paul Casey did not let the pain stop him. As soon as he pursued his career, he followed the host, singer, actor, and the beautiful British column; Talk about the complete package! The couple married in 2015 and had two children, Lex and Astaria. Having the highest ranking of all time in third place in 2009, Paul had a successful golf life. Despite being married to the famous TV host Pollyanna, the couple still lived a peaceful and quiet life in Arizona on a remote farm.

In recent years, Japan has become a cultural center and a place for those who love history, food, art, music, and more! As a result, many foreigners have chosen the country to reside in or vacation in. However, Japan has a set of traditions and cultural values that are unusual and foreign to Westerners. As such, making social or social mistakes without knowing it is possible. Here are some tips to avoid embarrassing yourself when arriving in the land of the rising sun.

A new meaning of Christmas

In the West, Christmas is a public holiday celebrated by everyone. This is a time for presents, Christmas trees, presents, singing carols, and more. However, in Japan, holidays are not treated as such. Christmas is celebrated in Japan, but mainly for couples. They will go out to dinner on Christmas Eve and have a romantic activity the next day. 

Slippers in the bathroom

In Japan, special slippers are worn when going to the toilet. These slippers can be shared. After using the slippers, you need to return them to their original position and location in which they were found. Failure to do so can disrespect the host or embarrass guests if they forget to remove their slippers before leaving the bathroom.

Four is an unlucky number.

Like the number thirteen in Western circles, the number “four” is taboo in Japan. This number is banned mainly because it sounds like the word for death. For visiting expats, you must not give anything in sets of four, as this will be seen as disrespectful and a bad omen.

Never give tips

In the West, tipping is a way to show someone they’ve done their best to serve. However, in Japan, tipping is an insult, if not outright humiliation. The Japanese believe that hard work is essential, so everything counts towards the cost of service. If you leave a tip, workers will return the money. 

Don’t dance at nightclubs.

This can be one of the most complex problems for ex-pats, as nightclubs are almost synonymous with dancing for them. However, in Japan, dancing is strictly prohibited in lounges. Nightclubs help reinforce this rule by posting polite signs asking those inside not to dance. All of this stems from a law passed in the 80s that required a specific floor area to be licensed to dance, and given the high cost of real estate in Japan, most places cannot. 

No trash can

If you are a tourist or visitor in Japan, finding a place to throw your trash will be hard. This is because, in the past, people have abused the privilege. So for those visiting Japan, leave your trash in a bag or bring a garbage bag to take it home at the end of the day.

We would never have guessed what spooks some of these stars, but Hollywood is home to strange and unusual phobias. From Kristen Bell’s aversion to pruney fingers to Channing Tatum’s fear of porcelain dolls, here are some bizarre phobias among celebs.

Kendall Jenner

Kendall Jenner allegedly has a super bad case of trypophobia. For anyone unsure about what that is, she says tiny little holes set in random patterns put her on edge. For example, she can’t look at things like lotus heads, honeycombs, or even pancakes. Imagine being unable to eat pancakes for breakfast due to fear.

Britney Spears

Britney Spears has spoken about her herpetophobia many times, which is a fear of snakes. Specifically, the superstar is most terrified of the Komodo dragons, but any reptile sighting is enough to make Britney freak out. We are guessing that the reptile exhibit at the zoo is not a place the Princess of Pop will be seen at any time soon.

Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson has been in dozens of movies, and we are sure that at least one featured her greatest fear. That is, Scarlett is terrified of birds. The actress told New York Magazine that “Something about wings and beaks and the flapping” angers her. When she encountered some peacocks on set, she said that she definitely tried to keep her distance. So, if we see Scarlett shouting in fear, we can assume there’s a bird nearby.

Channing Tatum

If not for Channing Tatum confessing that he has a severe fear of porcelain dolls, we would have assumed he is fearless. We should know by now not to judge a book by its cover because Tatum recoiled and panicked when Ellen DeGeneres brought out a porcelain doll while interviewing the actor. Perhaps he should try playing with his daughter’s doll house to overcome this fear.

Johnny Depp

With the number of fantasy films Johnny Depp has acted in, we would have assumed that the actor would not possess a fear of clowns. Nonetheless, the Pirates of the Caribbean star gets rather scared by the idea of people walking around with big red noses atop white face paint. Back in 1999, Depp was quoted saying, “there always seemed to be a darkness lurking just under the surface, a potential for real evil.”

Taylor Swift

Sea urchins sure ruin a perfect beach day, but to be honest, they are not enough to deter us from going into the water. On the other hand, Taylor Swift is so terrified of these spiny sea animals that if she knows that sea urchins are lingering beneath the waves, she will not dare step into the water just in case she accidentally steps on one and gets pricked.

The internet has transformed into an abode of information, knowledge, and entertainment, providing many resources for individuals to learn and quench their curiosity. One such form of entertainment is the vast collection of photographs of celebrities, often portrayed in an amusing and lighthearted manner. These images often depict the stars in situations that appear uncomfortable, sometimes even humorous, owing to their unexpected encounters with their fans.

It is common to see celebrities appear ethereal, elegant, and stunning 24/7, with their impeccable looks being their trademark. For instance, Beyoncé is often depicted as someone who wakes up looking gorgeous and remains that way throughout the day. Similarly, conventional wisdom suggests that Brad Pitt cannot be caught looking anything other than perfect, while Kevin Hart is thought to be unable to maintain a straight face for more than a few seconds. Additionally, Vin Diesel is believed to be nearly impossible to catch with a grin. However, these perceptions are merely assumptions and are far from the truth.

As much as we may overlook it, celebrities are ordinary human beings like us, with genuine emotions and struggle they face daily. They experience moments of happiness, sadness, and vulnerability and have authentic bags under their eyes, like any other person. Therefore, it is essential to realize that these larger-than-life stars are not immune to life’s stresses and challenges.

We have compiled a collection of the most realistic images that depict the human side of celebrities, capturing them at their most authentic and relatable moments. These images serve as a reminder that behind the glitz and glamor of the entertainment industry exist real people with genuine emotions and human experiences, just like everyone else.

From an unconventional romance to one of the world’s most coveted singles settling down and getting married, there are plenty of fun facts about how George Clooney and Amal became a couple. If you want to know how this relationship plays out, here’s George and Amal Clooney’s complete timeline!

They met at a party in July 2013

The actor met the love of his life through a mutual friend at a party he hosted. The party occurred at one of George Clooney’s houses near Lake Como in Italy. On the other hand, Amal was on her way to Cannes with a mutual friend. Although George Clooney admits there is an immediate attraction, the romance begins much later. They started talking because she had to send pictures of his parents at the party, which is how their affair began.

Their first date was in London.

Later that year, in October 2013, George Clooney asked Amal on a date in London. At the Abbey Road studios, he was working on his directorial debut, Monuments Men. George reminisced that London was the perfect place for a first date. Amal chose a modern and stylish restaurant for their first date. When they came out, they were surrounded by the paparazzi, but Amal handled it all like a pro. That must be the effect of being a good lawyer. After the first date, things got dire for this couple.

They are on vacation around the world.

Even though George is working on another movie, he’s still having a good time with Amal and traveling the world together. That year they enjoyed each other’s company, including Christmas in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. After they emailed repeatedly, George realized that he and Amal were more than just friends, so they wouldn’t let time pass. They went entirely ahead, knowing each other and building their relationship. But they still need to finish their adventure.

Amal and George visit Africa.

George and Amal’s trip to Africa is significant in their relationship. The two went on a safari in February 2014. In an interview, George revealed that when he looked back at the photos, he realized he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. The couple went hunting in Tanzania and then took a tropical vacation in Seychelles. George and Amal are pictured on the beach holding a tropical fruit. The actor said the travel and Amal looking at the giraffe made him want to propose.

Proposal in 2014

Surprisingly, the actor is the chef in the family. And for this special occasion, he decided to cook Amal a special dinner in April 2014. After sitting down, George asks her to take something from the drawer. When Amal went to get a lighter, she found a ring instead. The actor got on his knees, proposed, and did everything a gentleman should do. Amal was shocked and kept staring at the ring as George knelt and waited for an answer for almost 20 minutes until she agreed.

They got married in September 2014

If getting married in the same year and receiving a marriage proposal seems rushed, it doesn’t seem to be the case for this loving couple. They exchanged vows on a beautiful altar in a luxury resort in Venice, Italy. Their marriage proposal and marriage shocked many ardent fans of the single guy. Friends and family joined them in their multi-day love affair with many celebrations to celebrate the newlyweds. Among the guests, there are many famous people.

The world of the red carpet is filled with all sorts of glitz and glamour. Everyone dresses to impress in jaw-dropping outfits, fighting for the best shots from the press. However, did you know that most stars have a trick or two to stand out from the crowd? From butt pads to specialized shoes to prevent slipping, here are 10 red-carpet tricks used by celebrities to do at our next event.

Volume Hair

Have you ever noticed how complete and luscious nearly every celeb’s hair seems? It’s like they were born with super genes and the perfect hairdo. But we aren’t buying that. So, what’s the secret? Celebrity hairstylist Jen Atkin, who works for the Kardashian and Jenner sisters, recently revealed she uses eye makeup to touch up the roots and hairline of her client’s hair to make it seem like they’ve got more volume than they do.

Defining Shapewear

Sometimes, we only need a bit of sculpting to achieve that hourglass figure. That’s where Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS Collection comes into play. It isn’t the only shapewear line out there but one of the best. The line includes bras, bralettes, shorts, and bodysuits, and we can even see Kylie, her younger sister, sporting one of the brand’s products in the photo above. If you want to showcase your perfect body for an event, putting on shapewear is the way to go.

Tricking Mind Games

Some of the most head-turning looks in red carpet history are often the most daring. While celebrities like Rihanna, Miley Cyrus, and Kendall Jenner have famously been known to rock “nude” looks on the red carpet, other celebs like Beyonce prefer to wear dresses that seem scandalous. Celebrities have achieved that nude look without being barely clothed on the red carpet floor using a unique material known as illusion fabric or tulle. 

Cover Up

Besides the apparent sewing using a needle and thread, we can use many other items to help outfits stay in place. They can be convenient for deep cuts like a plunging neckline and a high slit. One of those items happens to be some good old sticky tape. It’s a quick solution for a daring outfit to ensure a celeb shows just the right amount of skin and offers some extra support so they don’t unintentionally show too much. 

Costly Skin Care

That glowing and glass-like skin you see on many celebrities isn’t a result of genes or makeup alone but also pretty extensive skin routines. Besides the traditional skin care procedures, celebrities have taken their facials a step further by booking appointments to get those tiny strands of hair on their faces shaved off. In addition to the traditional methods, some others also get derma-planes, a procedure where the top layers of their skin are removed. This way, the skin has that super neat, shiny, and soft red-carpet-worthy appearance. 

Emergency Tailoring

Most red carpet looks, unless custom designed, have a less-than-glove-like fit for the celeb wearing them. So, there’s got to be a lot of slight adjustments that have to be made to ensure the wearer fits into the clothes just like it was made for them. This can be tricky, especially if the event’s date is right now. This is why a tailor is usually needed on-site to handle any last-minute stitching or wardrobe malfunctions.

Wet Hair Look

The “wet hair” look some men prefer is done to give them a super sultry appearance, though the ladies have been catching on in recent years. Now it’s so popular. We can’t help but wonder how exactly they manage to keep their hair looking like that. The secret lies with lubricants like oils and gels — a ton of them. We’re curious how they wash it off and how long it takes. But it’s worth it if it looks this good.

Rubbing the uncomfortable way

Between going up and down the red carpet and wandering all over the venue exchanging pleasantries, it’s clear celebs have to do a lot of walking while they’re at the events. For this reason, their outfits have got to be comfortable. Since style and comfort don’t always go hand-in-hand, there’s always a risk of discomfort from their dresses rubbing with their skin. And there’s a limit to what celebs can carry with them. So, stylists like to bring some hairspray or fabric softener to keep their clients comfy.

Butt pads

It can be frustrating to have your perfect outfit picked out, but some areas need to be fixed when they’re supposed to be tightly fitted. Whether it’s the wearer’s or the tailor’s fault is debatable, but luckily, there’s a quick solution. And in Kristen Bell’s case, it was some excellent ol’ butt pads. Yeah, they’re associated with weird and insecure teens, but those can be handy for this situation. Achieving that full-figure look in just the nick of time has never been easier!

Oily Skin

Have you ever touched your face and noticed it feels much greasier than it should? Well, that’s a result of the over-secretion of sebum, the oil from our sebaceous glands — or pores, as they’re often called — making our skin oilier. Celebs are humans, too, and they also face this issue. But, since it interferes with their makeup, the oily skin has got to go, and their stylists have found just the thing. Coffee filters work wonders on oily skin. Who would have thought?

Game of Thrones might have ended, but the show still lives in the hearts of the fans. Creating eight seasons of the highest quality of content must have been quite a tough job. In between the hard work, life on the sets of this show was full of fun, and these behind-the-scenes photos shall prove it, accompanied by so many secrets you may not yet heard before.

Good things come with a fine price

We don’t need to point out the fact that the last season of GoT was one of the most highly-anticipated season finales of all time. We were all clueless about the ending, and we were all eager to see what would happen. At the time, fans were waiting for the last few episodes with different emotions. Now that you know what went down in the end, did you know that each episode from the eighth season cost up to $10 million to produce?

Most challenging tasks

GoT fans know The White Walkers are some of the most frightening creatures in the show. But let us tell you something about how these characters came to life. Some of these were doctored with the help of CGI. But, the actors who played these characters had to work with some very complex prosthetics on their faces. You can’t just buy this kind of stuff from a store. In short, making just one of these took six weeks for a team of 10-15 artists.

The weapons

While you were watching the fighting scenes in the show, it would’ve been pretty easy to assume that the weapons used were real. That’s understandable because the characters put a lot of effort into throwing those spears and swinging those swords. But in reality, it’s not what you think. The weapons weren’t even replicas of lighter metal or steel. These weapons were made of 99% rubber by the weapons master Tommy Dunne. He knew that the real-steel heavy weapons wouldn’t be a practical option for filming.

Repercussions

Many people love Brienne of Tarth from the show; it was a big break for Gwendoline Christie. But every knight needed a strong costume, so she also had to don an impressive and heavy suit of armor for filming the show. It might have looked cool on the screen, but unfortunately, it adversely affected her. She said that her costume was pretty intense and painful. Its weight made her change the way she walked. Because of that, it also affected her walk permanently.

Inspiration

If there’s one thing that makes Game of Thrones the show, it’s those dragons. The creatures did well with the Mother of Dragons. Emilia was told to treat the dragons as if they all were her cats. In reality, she had to sit on wooden dragons and pat cushions covered in green fabric. The dragons were created with CGI and special effects, but much planning had to go into making the creatures look believable. Here’s an interesting fact: The dragon roars were inspired by the sound that tortoises make while mating!

Characteristics

Fans went through a lot of emotional ups and downs, especially during the finale. The characters from the Seven Kingdoms had it quite rough. Characters had to wear a lot of layers. We hope you remember when Cersei Lannister’s hair was chopped off. Therefore, Lena Headey, who played Cersei, had to wear a shorter wig that she called “The Trump wig!” It was itchy, and she wanted to burn it after filming, but that didn’t happen.

Furry Cloths

If you think of Game of Thrones, you think of the phrase “winter is coming.” That means that you need to wrap yourself up! On the show, you could often see Jon Snow wearing some fancy capes that would shield him from the cold Northern winds. Although these rugs looked like they were made of expensive animal furs, they were actually from IKEA! The costume department didn’t want to get costly animal furs for filming, so they chose a cheaper option. But they did add their own touches!

My co-wig friends

You might know her as Khaleesi, Daenerys Targaryen, Breaker of Chains, or the Mother of Dragons. You could always recognize her from her platinum-blond hair. Other cast members loved trying her wigs on, but it was a huge struggle for her. Emilia had just one wig during season one. Fast forward to season eight, and she had four wigs! She named the wigs Dany, Diva, Candice, and Blondie.

Devotion

Without a doubt, Emilia Clarke played the role of one of the strongest women in the world of movies and shows. Fans commended her for her portrayal and her real-life power. While shooting Game of Thrones, Emilia Clarke had to go through two brain aneurysms, but it didn’t stop her from perfectly portraying the role. The first aneurysm was during the first season, and she underwent brain surgery during the third season. She had another aneurysm shortly post-that.

Costumes Change

Thinking up the costumes for TV shows and movies must be pretty cool, especially for shows like GoT. There are so many characters and so many areas of the Seven Kingdoms. But it looks as if the costume department struggled with the Kingsguard. Michele Clapton, one of the costume designers for the show, said that the early Kingsguard costumes had to be changed because they made a lot of sounds, which were too loud for the mics. The suits had metal scales like armor, which caused the issue.

These celebrities don’t just act; they also have many other hidden talents that we may not even hear about most of the time. Did you know Lady Gaga could cook or Zac Efron could pole dance? These are all the fun talents these stars have held back from us. Take a look at this list to find out!

Snoop Dogg is a football coach.

Snoop Dogg is one of the most renowned and legendary rappers. Everyone knows him as a talented rap and hip-hop artist, but we doubt many know he was a football coach and mentor. He started a youth football league in 2005 and has coached many people who played in the big leagues. Snoop has also revealed that coaching has improved his life.

Mark Ruffalo is good at riding unicycles.

Anyone who’s ever learned to ride human-powered vehicles knows the order of difficulty increases from tricycles to bicycles, then unicycles. Riding a unicycle is incredibly hard work and takes a lot of practice. It seems like one of Hollywood’s most delectable actors is skilled at riding a unicycle. We wonder what the backstory is behind this talent of Mark’s, and we’d love to see him showcase his skills to the world someday.

Sandra Bullock is bilingual.

The Golden Globe and Academy Award-winning actress has made a name for herself in America’s entertainment industry. Yet, many people need to learn she has another unique set of skills. Although she doesn’t make much fuss about it, Sandra is also fluent in a central European language: German. Her mother was German and was raised in Nuremberg (a city in Germany) for twelve years, which explains her fluency.

Harry Styles loves to knit

Everyone has one activity they love doing during their leisure time. Former One Direction member, Harry Styles, is not any different. During a tour, when the group was still together, Harry would reportedly knit to relax and help himself deal with all the hustle and bustle of life on tour. Some fans can get a little crazy, and we don’t blame him for wanting to keep his mental health in check!

Terry Crews is skilled at drawing.

We’ve come across quite a list of actors here who’ve got a knack for a thing or two besides playing roles, and Terry Crews is one of them. He’s not just an actor, host, and former football player but also a skilled illustrator. Many of his works have made the rounds on the internet, and we were some of the millions amazed by his unbelievable skills. We’d have never guessed that Terry was also good with a pencil and some crayons in a billion years.

Harrison Ford is a pilot.

Hollywood has several legends, and Harrison Ford can easily be called one of them. He’s one of the highest-grossing actors ever and has many accolades under his belt. Besides acting, he’s also a pilot. The actor started flying far back in the 60s, but it wasn’t until much later he was given his license. Now, the legendary actor has thousands of flying miles to his name and can call himself one of the best pilots in Hollywood. 

Vin Diesel contributes to the development of video games.

Anyone who’s into action movies must know a man named Vin Diesel. He’s been the star of numerous blockbusters, some of which have featured him in their video game versions. Vin founded a video game company, Tigon Studios, which has been the creator of these video games. He also joined Studio Wildcard, an American video game developer, as their president of creative convergence, contributing even more to video gaming.

Angelina Jolie is a skilled knife thrower.

We’re not the best at statistics or guesses, but we can comfortably say it won’t be all that easy to meet people fascinated by knives. We can also say it’ll be hard to find one good at throwing them. That’s exactly why we think Angelina’s talent is one in a million. She even told Conan O’Brien, the popular television host, that she’s been collecting weapons since she was a little girl and showed off her super cool butterfly knife skills during the interview.

Bradley Cooper speaks French.

We’ve already talked about a bilingual star who has a lot of success in Hollywood, so this next one isn’t as much of a shocker. Bradley Cooper is another star who speaks a foreign language fluently. Bradley has a good command of French as he studied in France for a short while. The actor has shown his French language skills in public as he’s spoken the language during an interview, setting the internet ablaze.

Steve Carell played ice hockey.

Besides Mark Ruffalo’s unicycling talent, only a few of what we’ve seen so far have required that much physical strain. That’s why Steve Carell’s talent for playing ice hockey is an impressive one and another favorite we’d like to see in action. We don’t need to wish for that to happen. Steve displayed his impressive ice hockey skills during an episode of The Office, a comedy series he starred in. Watching the episode puts some perspective on how great he is at the game.

Being a lead actor in a TV show or movie can be challenging. It usually takes some major acting chops and charisma to pull it off. But some would say it takes even more skill to take a relatively minor role and make it your own. These actors made the most of their supporting roles and became fan favorites on the TV shows and movies they were in.

Sydney Sweeney as Eden – The Handmaid’s Tale 

Eden was brought in in season 2 and married off to Nick by the oppressive government of Gilead. A pious 15-year-old played by the baby-faced Sweeney, Eden got more attention from viewers and critics than the actor herself had anticipated. Was Eden a spy for Serena or the Eyes? We kept guessing all season, and the answer turned out to be shocking, heartbreaking, and a potential turning point for the show.

Alexandra Breckenridge as Moira – American Horror Story 

Moira O’Hara in American Horror Story: Murder House was played by the iconic Frances Conroy, who went on to play the Angel of Death in Asylum and the unforgettable Myrtle Snow in Coven (“Balenciagaaa!”). As Moira occasionally took the form of her younger self, they needed a younger actor. Sharing a role with Conroy is a tall order – but Alexandra Breckenbridge’s stunning red hair and stocking tops proved unforgettable.

Alexandra Daddario as Lisa – True Detective 

The first season of True Detective was criticized for its portrayal of women. Detective Rust Cohle’s big notebook is given more agency than the female characters, who mainly move the plot by meeting an untimely end or trying to date the other detectives. Still, you have to admit they look good doing it – at least when it comes to Alexandra Daddario as Detective Hart’s bit on the side, Lisa Tragnetti. She reportedly received marriage proposals from fans after her nude scene in episode 2.

Rose Leslie as Ygritte – Game of Thrones 

Game of Thrones left us with many memorable lines: “Winter is coming!”; “Hodor!”; “What do we say to the God of Death? Not today!”; “If you think this has a happy ending, you haven’t been paying attention.” Each is a winner, but perhaps no line has been quoted and seemed quite as much as, “You know nothing, Jon Snow,” spoken by the flame-haired wildling Ygritte. Fresh from Downton Abbey, Rose Leslie made an impression not only on viewers but on Kit “Jon Snow” Harrington himself. The two of them got married in 2018.

Reese Witherspoon as Jill – Friends 

Now that Reese is a media mogul in her own right, it’s hard not to see her appearance as an attempt to inject minor stardom into the saggy middle of season 6. But this was before Legally Blonde, before Sweet Home Alabama. We had no idea just how huge Reese Witherspoon was about to become. And what’s more, Jill’s character worked brilliantly. She takes all the mistakes Rachel made in the early seasons — expecting shopping to fix all her problems, staying tethered to Daddy’s credit card, dating Ross — and makes them her own.

Norman Reedus as Daryl – The Walking Dead 

The Daryl Dixon character didn’t exist in The Walking Dead during its preparation phrase. When Norman Reedus auditioned to play Merle Dixon, the creators knew he wasn’t suitable for the part, but they also knew they wanted him in the show. So they created the role of Daryl, especially for him — and the character quickly became such a fan favorite that he was upgraded to series regular after season 1. He eventually became the series’s main protagonist following Andrew Lincoln’s departure as Rick.

Charisma Carpenter as Cordelia – Buffy the Vampire Slayer 

In the early episodes, Cordelia’s role seemed set in stone: she was the well-dressed, popular girl who was mean to the nerds. By opting to be friends with Willow instead of her, Buffy showed viewers that she was turning her back on the high school life she could have had. But throughout the show’s first three seasons, she transformed from an antagonist pitted against the Scooby gang to their ally — even doing a little vampire slaying herself — before she crossed over to Angel with David Boreanaz.

Krysten Ritter as Gia – Veronica Mars 

Everyone has a favorite Krysten Ritter vehicle — Jessica Jones, Breaking Bad, Don’t Trust the B**** in Apartment 23 — but Veronica Mars fans have loved her longer than anybody else. She took Gia Goodman (a ditzy, privileged character that could quickly have become just another rich girl trope) and made her such an integral part of the show that there was no question of her not returning for the fan-funded movie in 2014.

April Bowlby as Kandi – Two and A Half Men 

Kandi is the classic example of a sitcom character working her way up from a single appearance to the main cast. April Bowlby appeared in season 3 of Two and A Half Men as a one-off bimbette with a different name: Kimber. Kimber had so little discernible personality that we’re wondering if Kandi was a new character or just had a new name. Either way, Kandi was a main character in season 4, eventually becoming Alan’s second wife and returning in season 10 for a surprise twist.
