We don't give a second thought about beautiful flowers on display. So innocuous. So simple. So...creepy?


When you really think about it, the concept of exhibiting something that once used to live – although not quite as dramatic as taxidermy – can be unsettling.

That was one of several observances strangers on the internet shared when Redditor ZzzSleep asked:

"What's creepier the more you think about it?"

Still Out There

"The number of people out there who intentionally killed a person or two who went under the radar and never got caught."

Just Passing Through

"The amount of living things separate from us that are inside our body."

Mind-Blowing

"The human brain and the numerous, incurable things that can go wrong with it for NO reason at all."

Marketing

"Advertisements where they pretend the company 'cares about you' or 'believes everyone deserves the perfect (insert product here).'"

For Example

"I love the new H&R Block commercial where they say they're on your side. It's their fault that we Americans have to do our taxes and not our government. It's a f'king business."

How Our Mind Works

"How only we will ever truly know our thoughts and feelings, interpretations of the world -visually, emotionally, mentally. No matter how much we try to describe it to someone else or how close you are to another human, its still just you in so many ways."

Appledarling

Left To Our Devices

"How my phone seems to know what I have thought and not spoken about ."

"The unfathomable size of the universe, its extreme emptiness, and the unknown reason why anything exists at all."

Nearing The End

"Dying. We all live these lives and work really hard to get somewhere and all we do is just die. No way out of it. And we have no idea what happens."

"Flowers. They are essentially plant genitals that we like to cut off and put on display."

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
