You can instantly tell that they are stock images when you see funny and weird pictures depicting an improbable scenario, lousy acting, and that peculiar editing style. Cue: ridiculous stock photos.
There’s just something about these strange photos that makes them so distinguishable and often laughable. And though these weird stock photos were primarily made to be sold, it’s impossible to think anyone would choose these weird pics even if they were given for free.
However, we like weird stuff, and we know that you do, too! Hence, Bored Panda has collected a mass of strange and funny stock images from sites like iStock or Shutterstock that no one will ever use, and that will definitely make you say, “WTF is this photo?”
From a grandma teaching a group of blond children the secrets of “stab between the fingers” to a female version of Adolf Hitler peeling potatoes, the photographers behind these weird, funny photos that seem almost unreal were probably trying a bit too hard.
And it’s not that we don't appreciate all the work that went into producing these ridiculous stock photos. We just think each one should come with an in-depth commentary by the author, explaining what was going on in their head while creating these weird, funny stock images worthy of our list.

Grandma Teaches Blond Children Important Life Lessons

What trick? I don't see what they're trying to cut. Very interested in more details. I kinda really hope you didn't also learn it on the living room floor, shirtless for no apparent reason

Don't see the problem here. The kids seem to be using normal knives, without a sharp point. It is probably summer so they aren't wearing much, like children do when it is hot outside. I like the picture actually.

Is it now a crime for children to be blonde? Even saying their hair colour is divisive AF. Go be offended about something that matters. Please !!!

Maybe we shouldn't mention that they are kids either, or that the woman is a granny. Or that she's a woman.

Why mention their hair color? What does that have to do with anything? If they were all brunette would you have said the same thing? "Grandma teaches brunette children......"

Oh shut up, it is not. Hair color has NOTHING to do with someone's personality. It is just very strange that BP had to mention that in the title.
