Artist Fred Barnard was right on the money when he said, “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Some of the most attention-grabbing photos are the ones that lack context, just like the ones you’re about to see.
These posts are from a Facebook page simply labeled Oh. All one million followers share a liking for ambiguously humorous images. Describing them in writing is quite challenging, so you’ll have to see for yourself.
Without further ado, here are some of the best pics that may provide today’s free chuckles.

If these images convey an underlying message, photos have immense power. Their ability to evoke emotion without words should not be underestimated.
But what makes a successful photograph? Authenticity is one element, according to celebrity photographer Mark DeLong. It should make the viewer feel like they are in the same space as the still image.
Most of these images are random occurrences from daily life, snapped from a person’s smartphone. They exude a sense of originality, which DeLong says is another trait of a successful photo.
“One of the most effective ways to create a meaningful photographic image is to take a picture of a subject in a way that no one has ever seen before,” he wrote in an article for his website.

As proof of Barnard’s statement mentioned in the intro, the Washington Post’s director of photography, MaryAnne Golon, once presented a photo story in China without saying a word. As she told Time Magazine, the audience took it all in and “fell quiet in all the right places.”
“After the last frame, we all just beamed at each other. It was so thrilling,” Golon recalled.
At the end of the day, a photograph is an immortalized moment—a captured minute that preserves a memory forever. National Geographic’s director of photography, Sarah Leen, said it perfectly: “It can defeat time.”
“Images can keep the memory of a loved one alive, hold a moment in history for future generations, be a witness to tragedy or joy.”
Now, we’d like to hear from you. Which of these photos is the funniest for you? Are there any that stood out for reasons other than humor? Let us know in the comments!
My bits and pieces are already internal, but they just tried to crawl in further
And the pole holding up the sign kinda looks like a pair of khaki shorts!
That bike's so tall you didn't even notice the three other illogically tall bikes.
Well, guys don’t like using urinals right next to each other, anyway
Could be one of those magic books that glow and have the angelic choir behind it.
My mother does it to the seat. I don't know how she's survived this long

The toilet paper, on the other hand, has been sitting there soaking up the stuff flying out of the bowl for hours or days. Much like the "seat protectors" that usually live above the toilet...
I know people that will line the seat with tp if there are no covers but this is nuts. I have an aunt that will not sit on a public toilet, she just doesn't sit all the way down. Don't know how at 83.
Y'all do this and then leave most of it for some hard working minimum wage woman to clean it. Stay home or wear adult diapers if you can't handle public bathrooms. Shameful and wasteful.
........if you're taking time enough to do this in the first place, do you really need to go in the first place?
I don't understand why people that are so germaphone, like me lol, don't carry gloves, wipes and vomit bags to go potty in public restrooms. Like everyone here stating there are major germs all around the toilet stalls, just use vomit bags and you won't waste all this TP and especially leave your mess to be cleaned up my bathroom attendants. Work starter not harder :) I learned this trick from the nurses working at the hospital years ago. If everyone took the bio classes we were forced to take, not a single soul would leave their house lol!
It's daft. Every time you touch the seat or the paper dispenser you are getting germs on your hands, which you're then going to use to wipe yourself. Unless you have broken skin on your buttocks, then you are in no danger from germs on the seat. It takes at least 12 layers of tissue to prevent germs from transmitting to skin if the surface is dry. All you are doing is ensuring that you contaminate yourself more than is necessary, wasting a whole bunch of tissue, and potentially blocking the toilet.

Off topic. To those who were downvoted for no bloody reason: I gave you guys an uppie :)
I am a graphic designer and work with A.I all the time, There are 15 of these that are A.I. Just have to look closely at the writing, faces, hands, or small details that don't line up.
A "graphic designer who works with AI" LMFAO. You don't need to pretend qualifications to say something's fake.
Load More Replies...Too many A.I. generated pics. Idea for a fun feature though, voting to guess if a photo is AI or not.
Ever heard of photoshop? It does still exist. I can tell by the pixels
Load More Replies...It says there are 50 images but there are 73 images? I am not complaining though :P
