Things That Are Not Aesthetic has amassed more than 3.4M followers who seem to enjoy the stranger than strange pictures they post daily. From silly clocks and bizarre billboards to furry skeletons, the creators continue to puzzle their fans with the most ridiculous images found online.
This Facebook page is a part of the Dank Channel project, which was started by Levi Cameron Grenko in 2013. He is a social media manager who "grew to love the internet culture of memes" ever since he made his first meme page. With this project, he strives to "make a difference on the world as a whole". By sharing funny pictures and jokes, the accounts he created allow people to let out a few laughs and share their opinions with others.
If there's a prize, you should give it to the 2nd place winner. Honestly though, it doesn't matter who submitted the design, just as long as it's really good.
While we may feel uncomfortable looking at terrible objects or unaesthetic design, it's intriguing how we also find them weirdly attractive. Funny and perplexing pictures are the perfect attention trap—once your eyes land on them, it’s hard to look away.
An influencer marketing agency Mediakix explained that in the past couple of years, meme accounts that appeal to audiences of all types seem to be on the rise. One reason for their popularity is simply their format. Funny pictures are easy "bites" of content that can be consumed in mere seconds and always feel fresh for the audiences.
"Compared to more traditional forms of media like news articles or YouTube videos, memes require little time and effort to consume and understand," they explained. They’re designed for our fast-paced lives and can give us temporary shelter from the troubles we may have in our lives.
Schrödinger's teapot: Unbroken and broken at the same time.
Having a decent grasp of gravity, I'd start by seeing if some cardboard could slide in without letting the teapot fall. If that wasn't possible, and depending on what else is in it, I'd carefully tip the cabinet backwards before opening the door.

You need two people: One to whip the door open, and a second with great reflexes to grab it on the way down. Assuming it starts out around eye-level you've got just over 0.5 seconds before it hits the floor.
by my count, you'd need 7 people: 1 to open the door, and one for every falling object - 3 cups, 1 teapot, 1 teapot lid, 1 plate. everyone grabs ONLY the item they're assigned to catch. good luck.

Flip it so the glass is turned to the ground. In theory, because now I see it's quite a big ehh cupboard (what's the right word?)
There's quite a lot of other stuff in there too, so it would probably break the glass panes.
Load More Replies...We discussed this in another forum. First we need more info: how much does the cabinet cost and the teapot. If the cabinet is basically worthless you can find an entry by breaking in controlled, and save the pot. Otherwise various solutions are possible, from using thin cables, to carefully tilting the whole thing. Inserting foam was another interesting idea.
Pfft..Peter Parker from the first Spiderman movies would make short work of this...
maybe there is a back panel that can be unscrewed... tipping the cabinet back might break things on the lower shelves.
Tilt it towards the back or open from the back or the side... very... carefully, without breathing
Open the door just one or two millimetres to insert the blade off a knife (long bread knife I'd say), put it under the plate and try to push everything back up, carefully opening wider if you need to tilt the blade. Good luck!
Another important factor is their content. The majority of such accounts target Millennial audiences and, according to Statista, they were the largest generation group in the U.S. in 2019, adding up to 72.1M people. "Unlike other social media influencers that create content around specific niches like beauty, family, or sports," meme accounts also tend to function on a broader scale. That’s why they appeal to many different users instead of just targeting one kind of Millennial.
However, there also seems to be a growth of category-specific pages. "Themed meme accounts toe that fine line between being particularly relatable to a specific group of people, but universal enough to attract a large following," Mediakix wrote.

So when you take a look at pages and accounts like the one we feature in this list, you can’t help but think that the younger generations have a seriously weird sense of humor. Turns out, Millennials and Gen-Z were brought into a world where to live an easy life and find a well-paying job is harder than it was for their parents or grandparents. Well, if you’re drowning in student debt and have to give up on the idea of buying a house one day, the world can start to seem like a pretty dark place.
“Furry skeleton” are two words that shouldn’t go together.
According to Elizabeth Bruenig, one reason why Millennials' sense of humor is so dark and surreal could be that the world has stopped making sense to them. "Long-lasting careers seem out of reach; millennials are told to go to college so they can make money, but mostly they just amass debt and then job-hop in hopes of paying it off. In the meantime, they put off getting married, having kids, buying houses and so on. And waiting feels like — well, waiting," she explained.
When you’re bored at your fam holidays and start getting creative.
It really shouldn’t surprise us that the increasing complexity of our lives impacts how we see the things around us. The meaning itself might start to slip away, and that’s why Millennials often find themselves immersed in a peculiar and chaotic form of comedy.
"Rather than trying to restore meaning and sense where they’ve gone missing, the style aims to play with the moods and emotions of an illegible world," Bruenig continued. "In a way, it’s a digital update to the surreal and absurd genres of art and literature that characterized the tumultuous early 20th century."
These signs came from VictoryStore.com in case anyone was wondering. They have cool signs for any occasion, I have a few sets myself (birthday & grad themes).
Posts you can feel
However, even if we’re attracted to unaesthetic things because we want to laugh at our way of living, it doesn’t mean that we can't see the joy in them. As they say, taste is subjective, and while some people could be appalled by what they see shared on this Facebook page, others can find it even inspiring. After all, there’s some amount of beauty in any imperfection, only if you’re willing to see it.

Someone doesn't understand what aesthetics means. Many are very humorous, not unattractive and tasteless. Only a very few have anything to do with aesthetics, ie beauty and harmony. Hillary Clinton and Pete Davidson are warm and charming. A trucker watching a projected movie is creative. Thanks for a fun, if mis-titled thread.
To be fair, anyone who expects the title to be spot on probably hasn't been watching bored Panda very long. But definitely fun!
Load More Replies...It have no idea what any of this has to do with unaesthetic pictures, but I'm rolling with it.
Bored Panda scrapes the bottom of the barrel of the Internet for content, so...this is what you get.
