Seems like a lot of businesses take themselves way too seriously these days. Business analysts are hired to maximize profits, reduce overheads and increase professionalism and efficiency in staff, but amongst all this sometimes a little humanity and personal touch is lost.
Not for these businesses though!

This is why you don't yell at someone when they get their order wrong! Not only you're making a person's day bad. You could be screwing up a robot's day as well! We'll all blame you for their hostile takeover!

They Mounted A Vegan To The Wall At My Local Butcher Shop
Can't really decide if stupid stereotype or very clever trolling...
Load More Replies...I love the trolling idea. Being vegetarian, I'm totally putting a hunter on the wall.
Well, I don't own a sweater like that, so this is clearly incorrect!
Easy joke to make. It's not like a vegan will see it. It's like making fun of the Amish on the internet.
Vegans still use the internet and they'll probably see it anyway. Lol
Load More Replies...Ok, it was funny when I thought it was just a human, but now that I know it's a vegan--that's friggin hysterical!!!
Good thing, no vegan will ever get offended by this because no vegan will enter a butcher's and see it
Funny. But it makes me a little concerned about the people who bought the "other" other white meat. Do they know where their "pork" butts came from?
It was meant as a joke i dont think this was meant to be stereotypes

Donut Shop In My Area Is Doing Renovations
Must have gone hitchhiking on a Vogon Construction ship. Hope they thought to bring their towels.
Note: this post originally had 200 images. It’s been shortened to the top 40 images based on user votes.
Does anyone else find it interesting that these pictures show up ALL over social media, but by different users? The - "We don't know what these are" in my local toy store - just happen to also be "In my local Dollar Store" and "At my local grocery store". WOW. That photographer geats the same shot EVERYWHERE! He's got talent.
Humor keeps my stable................even if I don't get a donut.
Dear BP. Stop shortening lists to less than 50. Its obnoxious and unnecessary. I like the long lists. Its more entertaining. Also, please stop with the random facts in between submissions. The "did you know in 1902, blah blah blah, someone something or another did a study on blah blah blah.....". Its distracting and uninteresting. I didn't come here to be educated on random s**t. I can Google my own stuff. I came here to be entertained. Not educated. Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Brilliant, I hope these places sell 'sqids' of stuff cos with that humour they certainly deseve to
I am so sorry you don't have a funny bone. AFV is pretty good for laughs, though
