There's something special about finding an easter egg in a video game or a movie. Someone hid it there for a reason -- to send a message -- and it needs an audience to fulfill its purpose. Without your discovery, it would be like a scream underwater. Pointless.
The beautiful thing is there are more easter eggs than we might think. And they exist not only in media but in real life as well. How do we know this? Thanks to the subreddit r/IRLEasterEggs, of course! This online community is the place where people go to share pictures of their best finds.
Although we at Bored Panda already covered it, the gang keeps stumbling across so many cool gems, we have to make an update!

Even though the name of the subreddit says it all, the moderators still need to curate the content.
"'Not an IRL easter egg' is something that doesn't meet the criteria of what an easter egg is (it wasn't a hidden secret in the real, breathing world by someone for you to find)," they specify in the rules. And these things are not welcome.

A murder of crows. A pride of lions. A family of arguments. Yep, it works.
Digital easter eggs, like screenshots or photographs of screens (games, computer software, TV series, DVD menus) on the internet are considered as regular easter eggs and not IRL easter eggs. For such things, the moderators suggest trying r/EasterEggs.
Barcodes are also off-limits. "As fun as it is to advertise the new cute barcode you've found, please send them over to r/barcodes," the moderators say.
If you like real-life easter eggs, give these two a try as well!

Door Arch With A Unicorn Instead Of A Horse, Utrecht, The Netherlands
I don't think it's an easter egg. Unicorns are quite common in heraldry. They symbolise purity, vertue and nobility. The last one because according to the myth, a unicorn would rather jump to her death from a cliff than be killed by a hunter. According to "Gravity Falls", they're just asshol** though :-)
Lost the picture, but before Aldi changed their shopping trolleys I saw on one of the handles: How about trying something you can't pronounce
Not exactly a real-life Easter egg, but you know that new movie "Space Jam" with the looney toons characters? Well the rings around the space jam logo are the same rings on the looney tunes logo. I figured that out myself and thought it was cool. (Btw I don't know if they're intended to be like that, I just noticed they look similar)
Almost certainly intended. The amount of hours that go into designing logos like that, nothing is accidental
Load More Replies...Number 46, the lottery numbers aren't lottery numbers, but an egg inside an egg :D
If you spell letters associated with the lottery numbers, you get mammoth

The on-off buttons for the slicer at the Deli I work at are the same colors as the Italian flag, with a white hold button in the middle.
My neighbor's Volvo had a little spider engraving in a compartment in the 3rd row. Jeeps and Teslas have some easter eggs too.
