We humans are wonderful creatures. We have been gifted with a unique intellectual power, capable of forming deep thoughts and creating complex works. But sometimes, just sometimes, our mind wants to take a break and our actions can seem absurd and, well, just plain stupid. Where there is so much space for creativity, the situations in which we all become the masters of unwise actions are inevitable.
Let us introduce you to a Twitter page called “No context idiots”, a place proving that no one is completely immune to foolishness. With over 1.3 million followers, it is a treasure trove for all things irrational and absurd. From unbridled internet jokes to images that leave us wondering what exactly these people were thinking, this page presents us with an unexpected variety of ideas and actions.
Scroll down to witness the peculiarities of human behavior and let us know your thoughts in the comments!

I always do 2nd pic straightaway so my cereal is never soggy.... I just add it in bits
Load More Replies...They're just warning you that if you pour the milk too vigorously, your Cheerios will launch out of the bowl.
Cheerios are made of cat? I know Bouche would launch out of the bowl if someone poured something wet in it. Of course, she would viciously murder that person.
Load More Replies...I always pour my cereal first, then the milk. if I have extra milk, instead of pouring it down the drain, I pour a little bit more cereal until the milk is gone. is this just me?
Then add more milk, because it's too dry. Repeat steps 1-4 and behold: The Never-ending Bowl of Cereal
And sorry boss, can't come to work today, hang on while I think of a reason.
Load More Replies...I thought everyone knew this! are you telling me people do this the opposite way? It' s like make your own food 101 when you're like 5
I have a medical reason (lol) for doing this. I am lactose intolerant, and must limit my milk intake but there’s no restriction on cereal.
actually, i'm kind of relieved to know that there is another parent out there that does these kinds of things. my son is now 44 so it was way before cellphones that i had to discipline him. but, when he did get into problems i would do similar things. didn't have time to do the chores because of gaming? took the controllers/joysticks but left the console so he could stare at it. also took the knobs off the t.v. in his room. missed curfew while out scooter-poopin' with his friends? he got to keep his bike but i owned the front tire. absolute worst thing i did an later felt guilty about was when he didn't remember to some other house chores was to cancel the gardeners and make him weed/maintain garden area. had gardeners only bc i worked full time and he had pollen allergies. this happened only once bc when i saw how badly his congestion was i didn't have the heart to do it again so i had to come up with something else: wash and meticulously detail my car.
I DID THIS. Whenever my son lost privileges, I just waited until he left for school, and collected the power/charging cords. Oh, to be sure, I got called every last name in the book, plus some I think he just made up, but my point was made.
Voice over: It didn't work, as chargers are pretty universal and lying around everywhere.
Load More Replies...Instead of "Baby on Board" they need a "Beware of Flying Coffins" sign.
‘No Context Idiots” joined Twitter in 2020. It didn’t take too long for them to reach an impressive number of followers and become one of the most popular pages that brings laughter and giggles to everyone that stops by. We sincerely hope these images will lift your spirits too!
On a Sunday, make a graven image and when your dad finds it and freaks out, push him down while saying that you didn’t make it; you saw your neighbor making it and took it when he was finished. To preserve the lie, you then go outside and beat your neighbor to death, proclaiming your love and desire for his wife and liberating his wallet as you do so. She acquiesces and the two of you fornicate on the lawn as your spouse watches, both of you shouting “Oh Jesus!” and “I am yours, Ra!” while reaching completion.

Actually, people have made real prosthetic limbs out of Legos. It's totally cool
He picks it up and it becomes part of his leg
Load More Replies...Well if the young one is grown up and has sex with a centaur, there is chance they give birth to a totally normal guy or a totally normal horse. I imagine in both cases their child will be called Steve.
I was hoping for Tony, but I can live with Steve.
Load More Replies...Damn! That was my exact first thought-I was gonna leave it as a comment.....but I see another great mind already thought of it.
Load More Replies...Human behavior and decisions are often complex and depend on a variety of factors. Who knows why we sometimes get involved in questionable situations and do things we feel embarrassed about later on?
However, we believe that we've all had those moments where we begin to analyze our past irrational actions and wonder ‘what was I thinking?’ In moments like these, it may be better to think of any wrong decisions we have made in the past as important components contributing to our maturity. Since there’s nothing we can do to change our past actions, it’s better to learn from them to improve our present.
Yes, so I guess I should downvote as it doesn't belong? Or upvote as it entertained me? Confused.
Load More Replies...FREAKING EPICLY AWESOME!!!! If I didn't love the images for my lock screen (P!nk in the Rosie the Riveter we can do it pose) and home screen (Selfie with the wifey!) both which I haven't changed in 9 years (I don't like change lol) then I would definitely try this!!!!
Kuddos for having a smart phone that lasts you nine years!! 🎉🎉
Load More Replies...Okay, this took far too long for me to get this one! I'm so ashamed! In my defence I'm pretty sleep deprived lol!
Mi scusi, signor caprone, ma può dirmi da che parte andare al negozio di formaggi?
Being yeeted back into the abyss so it doesn't have to suffer human existence lmao
Load More Replies...In case you were wondering, there are ways to better manage our irrational tendencies. To act in a way that won’t leave you embarrassed in the future, it is important to know how to control strong emotions. That can reduce impulsive actions and make you reflect on your behavior before making any decisions.
Awareness and self-reflection are necessary qualities to better understand yourself and your motivations. Critical thinking and the ability to reflect on one's actions can help discover the reasons why the irrational behavior occurred. By understanding these reasons, it is possible to look for alternative ways of acting in the future.
Let’s not forget that by discussing our decisions with loved ones or relying on trusted advice, we can gain new perspectives and insights. Also, by interacting with others, we can learn from their experiences and receive support to improve and manage our irrational and sometimes foolish tendencies.
Slayed the puzzle? I think you mean butchered it...
Load More Replies...Nope, first rule of puzzles, you have to turn all the pieces over to the picture-side-up. . .!
What is 'insecurity' supposed to do? Stalk customers? Stalk security?
The fact that you're worried about what to do suggests you are, in fact, already on Team Insecurity (AKA Team Anxiety). So go get your hoodie today.
Load More Replies...I don't need the shirt....why? People can tell just by looking at me. 😩
So THAT's what happened to the sphinx! (Not really.) What-Happe...gypt-1.jpg
And just with the tip of his thumb he smote the nose off of Cassiopeia, mortified, she stood as still as stone…
As we can see from the images, we humans are not always rational decision-making beings. Reckless instincts, emotions, or even unconscious processes are often at work. Some psychologists believe that our choices can be automated, based on learned patterns of behavior. So, sometimes we act in almost mechanical ways, even if we appear absurd or plain silly.
WAIT! NO! THAT ISN"T HER! SHE GOT EYEBROWS!

I got hacked randomly. From two locations, someone signed into an alt account I had for a game :,) turns out RubberDuck isn’t the most secure password…

You need to be in a bubble for the sake of *waves arms around* everyone

I'm afraid your syphilis is infested with crabs. And those crabs are carrying a nasty case of gonorrhea.
Worse, they're using oxygen that could be otherwise employed by thinking people.
Load More Replies...That's not how it works. It means your kid is pregnant with another kid who is pregnant with a third kid
Prolly gonna suck, she's gonna be pregnant for 27 months! /j
Sure man. You took a COVID test 3 times, comes out as positive and voila! You have the disease 3 times stronger than the average human. RIP logic.
Oh, but they can! There was a girl at my high school who got pregnant, but didn't tell her parents. She was a tad bit on the heavy side, so she was able to hide it. She and her boyfriend were both whom were startled to find that you CAN, in fact, get pregnant the FIRST TIME These marshmallow heads also believed that babies "only come at night," so she could have the baby and go back to school the next day. What a world of education she received when she gave birth in a high school ladies room … at 4:00 in the afternoon. (The poor girl had panicked when she didn't think the baby was breathing, and she stuffed it in the garbage can. Luckily, a teacher came in just then, and all worked out for the best. Both sets of parents were supportive
Load More Replies...I thought that was some kind of high dollar lawn mower at first.
Senza Patente Minicar is what I am finding with a very quick and extremely unthorough search. I doubt they are street legal in some countries or they could only be driven under strict conditions. I wouldn't expect to see them on the US interstates.
Load More Replies...also finding ur teacher out of school. happened once to me and the teacher started talking to my parents💀

If they both have to stay for some absurd reason, play Uno or something!

Omg I'm laughing I know I shouldn't be...the coffin picture started it
. . . when you have had to sit behind this kid since forever, and are bored out of your gourd by the lecture yet again. . .!
More money for the school system and teachers, they need motivation to teach things correctly. Then again, with new math......
I asked it to draw me a circle and it said "no I can't but I can send you a pic of one" so I was like ok send a pic and it said "sorry I can't send pictures"
Just proves however, that they do know where all of the McDonald's are located. . .!
Guess the kids would need to wait until they're 20 to be given a car!
Doesn't every beach have that eccentric old guy with the metal detector? Call him over.
My brother did this when we were on holiday in France. We did find them, though.
Hahaha, how long did it take to find them, and did your brother " get it" for burying the keys?
Load More Replies...I did't read keys at first and I was amazed that 2 kids buried a car. How did nobody see them? How deep did they burry and how damn long does it take to find a big a*s car buried by children at the beach....sadly this is not that story.
If it was the car, it would have been washed out to sea, maybe left on the beach when the tide came in!
Load More Replies...Late one night, I was waiting for my bus after work, and another city bus rolled by with all of the interior lights off. I could see the silhouettes of the people sitting inside, and the destination on the front said, "Nowhere." To this day, I have no idea what that was.
LOL don't ask me...I'm usually lost on the bus too. Too easy to zone out looking at s**t rather than pay attention to the stops
I've actually been on a bus where the driver didn't know her route. Everyone has one of THOSE days.
We had a few times when that happened on our school bus. Nothing like 50 kids yelling that you turned the wrong way to scare you into failing worse! I think one time they went the wrong way up a one way street.
Load More Replies...Mine just left rosary beads on my pillow every time she visited and ostracised family members for not being good Catholics. Probably why none of her grandkids cried at her funeral.

So sweet. Now you can feed the whole train!! She wants you to have friends...or if she's like my Aunt Betty be irate that I didn't eat it all myself
Side eye on her phone every time she gets a text , and if it's from taco bell say something like "oh cool, you ordered tacos" and then she has to order tacos for you. Repeat until she runs away broke.
Nothing compared to the nightly "I Love U Babe" Pizza Hut sends my GF.
If he doesn’t know then that means it’s working… well, working out for the girl at least. We’ll just text him saying we’re from Wendy’s. Then the girl will get confused too! 😂
Load More Replies...The defect is that the front bumper isn't syncing to the cloaking device like the rest of the car.

Load More Replies...and over here is the flamboyant car stack of 2023. still haven't gotten Jerry out
And it's ironic this is the movie most associated with the song, when in fact the song was made specifically for an entirely different movie which turned out to be a massive box office bomb (Mystery Men, 1999)

My 6 year old thinks this is one of the most disgusting things she's ever seen. my bf totally agreed that this was indeed how we did that. Because it was easiest when the computer thingy ( tower???) Was so big and heavy it was always just placed on the floor. If you were lucky it was a good foot rest as well 😁
makes me miss my E-Machines. yes, i loved them. best computers ever.
Now my power button’s on top of my case, and I had to tape an old pill-bottle lid over it because I have two cats XD
Mean. Hope they had a real iPhone waiting once they were done making their tiktok pranks
At least the Apple still has the label on it, so you can return it and get a refund.
No way! My secret Santa at work gave me this mug and... wait a minute... 🤔
Load More Replies...Un drinkable if you’re left handed. And for some reason my uncle IS right handed, but he drinks with his left 🤔 the cup’s ears would poke your face and it wouldn’t reach your mouth
Load More Replies...I saw a mug like this in a charity shop (goodwill) but didn't buy it for this reason. I'm left-handed, but still didn't think I could drink from it.
This one does. If it was normal it wouldn't be shown on BP.
Load More Replies...So where can I get this even though I'm a narwhal and don't sleep in a bed?
someone wanted to steal a ps5 because it’s about the size of the package but it was just essential oils and a litter mat
Load More Replies...Funny how boxes of a certain size always get opened or lost, usually mobile phone sized boxes.
I had 3 boxes of this size for Christmas come and they were all opened and rummaged through. Busted a shampoo bottle open and ruined half my stufg
I knew someone who had a "promising-size" package stolen off her porch. It contained 500 live grasshoppers for her Master's degree reptile project.
Guten Morgen deutsche Pandas. Ist sowas jemals einem von euch passiert? Ich habe sowas noch nie erlebt. Das Einzige, was dem nahe kommt ist ein idiotischer Hermes Lieferant, der mein Päckchen bei den Nachbarn abgegeben und mir keinen Zettel geschrieben hat „weil die Nachbarn so vertrauenswürdig aussahen und versprochen haben es abzugeben“. Hab den Inhalt meines Päckchens dann fast 2 Wochen später bei den Nachbarn in der Vitrine gefunden!
Gave one of my kids a used Altima on her 18th birthday. Later that night I am awakened by her standing at the foot of my bed saying she needs me to come outside and pay the tow truck driver.

Delta Math is still the bane of my existence when it comes to correct answers.
ughhh i hate deltamath but IXL and getmoremath are even worse
Load More Replies...This has happened to my brother (we’re homeschooled and use a homeschool math app) and he actually cried
When in college, we had a few like this. There would be two answers that were the same and had to choose one. anyone who picked the wrong one the teacher fixed. lol
This is why i love this website. The posts are funny, but then you get comments like this, and suddenly you're laughing out loud, and you have to pretend you thought of something funny so your parents won't realize you're not doing homework. 10/10.
Load More Replies...It's probably a scout thing. Those look like Boy Scout pants and the only way I can tell my friends apart when at camp is by looking at they're shoes. Or their face, but that's too much work.

In anime, they draw that shape near someone's head when they are angry
Load More Replies...One would think, being parked in the handicapped parking spot, with a handicapped placard hanging from my rearview mirror that that would be enough to tell people I need extra space to get in and out of my truck. I get people parking next to me leaving only inches between their vehicle and mine. Sometimes I want to throw my wheelchair through their windshield and then let my service dog into the car to pee on the seats. Leave extra space for the handicapped parking, PLEASE, I gotta open my doors all the way
We had similar happen so often when my brothers were alive. We had a van with a hoist at the back and despite the sign on the back saying we need at least 1.2M behind people would park right on our tail. Mum had a lot of altercations with people!
Load More Replies...Once a car parked so close that I had to get into my car through the passenger side!!!
I once took a picture of my car and the one next to me (& their license plate) cause they were parked so badly. Came out, car door is scratched & dented. Plus, genius left a message on my car. Was happy to have the police write a report. Insurance went after the dumba$$ for repairs.
If this was my tap I would pat it's head everytime I washed my hands. I love Scrat

I see no problem with this. In the UK you're not legally obligated to tell your employer you're pregnant until 25 weeks. If a female employee has to keep their pregnancy a secret to ensure she doesn't lose her job, I'd say she's not the problem.
Does the company have to hire a replacement when this happens or do her coworkers have to pick up her work? If they hire, does that person get laid off when she returns if they don't need 2 people in that position? I'm wondering what the true impact of this is.
Load More Replies...I used to work for a diaper manufacturer and we had this happen all the time. They didn’t get much by way of maternity pay, but the company gave 2 years worth of free diapers and wipes to all staff who were expecting, regardless of length of service. Which added up to a pretty big saving.
I did that with an Easter Peep (annoying marshmallow candy) when I was eight. Did you know that moms get reeeeallly mad when they open the microwave and see exploded burnt sugar everywhere??
HAS NO ONE NOTICED THE DECAPITATED BABY HEADS ON THE SIDEBOARD?????!!!
This might just be me.. but at first glance I saw her shirt and thought the girls headband were two closed eyes…
If I recall, I’ve seen this image around a few times and sometimes it’s captioned “she wanted to make paper dolls” or “she wanted to make a cutout book” or something similar. So, AFAIK, kids just doing kid things because they don’t understand money and just want the picture on it XD
Load More Replies...It's actually a paper/cotton blend, probably for that very reason; I've accidentally put enough money through the wash in my pockets to assure you it can survive water -_-
Load More Replies...Not to be that person but...there's still a lot of yogurt in the container. Who opens a yogurt cup and eats only half of it, c'mon. Some might say "maybe she tried it and didn't like it". Well, ok, then empty the container, throw away the food, clean the container and throw it in the recycling bin. They were going to put a half-empy container in the trash bin like that? What about the spillage? And the odor after a few days? Bah 🤷♀️
my wife has a bad habbit of leaving spoons in yoghurt pots, or forks in take out boxes and chuck them out together :(
Way to miss the point, genius. She's thrown the METAL spoon intended for washing into the bin and put the PLASTIC pot she intended to throw away into the sink.
Load More Replies...I doubt this changes the weight at all, just changes the center of gravity further to the back...
I would never be able to hold it steady so the numbers will keep going up and down
Back in the day you used to buy super skinny shrink to fit jeans. Before a night out you’d get in the bath wearing them, then as they dried they’d shrink onto you. Looked great but a nightmare if you needed to pee later.
Did this in the 1970's also. Levi 501's jeans didn't fit right unless you took a shower in them first and let them dry onto you.
