Cardboard cutouts can be a fun thing for an event, doesn't matter if it's for kids or for adults. You can put your face inside a hole and become an animal, a character from your favorite franchise, or just use it as an opportunity for a silly photo op. Unfortunately, not all cutouts come out anatomically correct.

Or maybe, for our laughing sake, fortunately? This selection of weird and laughable face cutouts from our listmakers is proof that this is an art, too, and that designers should approach it with artistry and care. So scroll down the list, dear panda, and upvote your favorite entries.

    It says it's financed by 'Heineken for Communities' in Romania. I guess they also financed drinks for the person who made this?

    This one’s helpful, as it helps identify choking hazards. In the uk, we were told to use a toilet roll inside, and if something fit through the tube, a toddler could choke on it.
