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.

I’m guessing Wales is being plagued by feral teenagers egging houses.
Sounds like something someone with a truck full of overnight baguettes would say.
I always thought Cricket rules to be pretty obscure, but this is even more complex than I imagined.
Even without the weird dot to dot thing that image is strange. is that the wicket keeper or the batter who is catching the ball? why is the cricket bat just sitting there? who hit the ball? Why is the dark haired woman just standing there looking at the ball?
I did this puzzle book and had a similar "WTF is that?" moment when I finished this dot-to-dot
The demogorgon from stranger things? (I had to look up the spelling)
"...and remember, kids, always bring your horribly mutated reindeer to every cricket match! No game is complete without it!"
Setting aside whatever that thing is...I can't even think of what would make sense to fill in that empty space. Or maybe my issue is that I don't know anything about cricket.
Reminds me a bit of the TV ads for the Australian Big Bash League (T20 cricket), because they try sell it as this pumped up form of cricket they have all these shots of big hits with CG lightning bolts added. Except it doesn't really look like a lightning bolt and that appears from their gloves to be a wicket keeper... with a bat next to them... standing nowhere near a wicket? I have no idea what they're going for, honestly.
If you clear downed trees and brush the cricket people will come. The UK reboot of Field of Dreams, perhaps?
would be interesting if there was also a trampoline on the ceiling
Per Ozzy Osbourne, I thought it was "You gotta hear this f****** guy!" He was referring to a 9 y.o. Japanese kid play the guitar on Crazy Train.

I grew up in 2-story house in the Philippines. Upstairs, there was a huge playroom, and 4 bedrooms. When I was around 11 years old, me and my babysitter were hanging out in the playroom. She went to the bathroom, and I got bored so I went downstairs to check out the fridge. I heard her come out of the bathroom, and she started screaming my name. After the 3rd time, she stopped. I thought she figured out that I was downstairs. After a few minutes, I saw her coming down the stairs. As she looked at me, she froze and just stared at me. I asked her what's wrong, and she said she just saw me in the playroom before she went downstairs. She was really freaked out about it, and I don't know--I used to not believe in these things so I just laughed at her. The second time it happened, I was probably 16. I was hanging out at my brother's room cause it's the room with the fastest internet. And then I heard my 6-year old brother (I have 2 brothers) calling me and looking around for me, I didn't a
Had a really bad day today. This gave me a big belly laugh that I truly needed.
I'm sorry to hear that. But I'm glad you found some laughter. Sometimes, a big chuckle can lift you out of the deepest hole.
