Ambiguity is inevitable. So when people run into it in everyday life, they often rely on their own assumptions, prior experience, or personal biases to fill in the gaps.

Found an anonymous "Thank You" note on the fridge? It's probably your partner expressing gratitude for the lunch you prepped them and not the ghost living under the bed. Noticed an abandoned umbrella in the park? Probably some absent-minded romantic left it there, and not Mary Poppins.

But too few cues can lead to confusion, a notion that the Facebook group 'Please, may I have a Crumb of Context?' successfully illustrates again and again, as its members share random pictures that raise more questions than they provide answers.

    They tried to buy eggs and flour under the age of 18, and now the police are quacking down on antisocial behaviour.

    I’m guessing Wales is being plagued by feral teenagers egging houses.

    This is actually why the children are not allowed to buy eggs.

    Looks like you have a rat infestation judging by the rats nest wiring. Is the cat (sorry, turkey) employed for pest control? Gobble gobble.

    "Tomber dans les pommes" which translates from French into English as "falling in the apples"....basically it means to faint :) I think this bird is demonstrating that 😂
