11+ Funny People Who Deserve A Pat On The Back, At Least

Big or small, everyone has something that they're proud of. Like me, for example, and my collection of vintage prawns — no two shrimps are alike! But we all have our thing.

The people we're looking at today might not even know how much we appreciate them, so consider this a virtual pat on the back. A digital "great job!" Or a cyber high-five.

No one found this helpful, huh?

If they didn't like the lack of wolves in this movie, they're gonna hate the lack of aviation in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Or how actually mean and rude the Goodfellas were!

Might even get it mounted to the wall!

These receipts are getting out of hand and kind of freaking me out...Yes, I am aware of the irony of that statement coming from someone who makes lists for a living.

I think this technically makes him your new dad.

Well, a part of the family, at least. He could be that fun uncle who always has crazy eyes goin' on and a surprising amount of range in his acting. You know that uncle.

Peep the glow! Literally.

It's pretty amazing, considering I've never seen glow-in-the-dark stuff work that well. Usually, you have to hold it under a light for 10 hours and then it's a little green for, like, two seconds when you turn out all the lights and then it's a total eclipse.

Sometimes you're better off not knowing.

But good for those guys for living their dream. I bet a lot of people said they'd never accomplish their zero-gravity wiener simulation, but here we are!

"Little sister was invited to the 'princess party.' But she wanted to be a puppy." —r_confused 

Reddit | r_confused

That's right, in a world of princesses, dare to be a puppy! Puppy > princess.

Kudos to this hard-hitting news team.

After this, they'll go back to part four of their nine-week coverage on the "Sand Turns Into Mud" story.

"A class of students were required to pick a Marvel character to embody within a resume and cover letter. This is what one student handed in." —EarlyHemisphere

This is what happens when you know how to game the system!

Finally, someone said it!

I know you're probably thinking, "all birds are surveillance drones?!" And that's a really, really valid point. But I say we hear them out because I freakin' hate geese.

Comedy is all about..............................................timing.

How did they know these ladies were gonna jump in the pic? Who knows? Perhaps they're a league of psychics...or heard people counting down from three for a picture. One of those two options.

You do you, Emily. You do you. 

Instagram | @will_ent

Honestly, she has it together more than most Emilys I know. Don't believe me? Check out our very own Emily's Diply author page and tell me she's doin' alright.

TIL I could be an Olympic champion.

Like I said, whatever your skill is, embrace it and the world will be yours for the taking. Me? I'm gonna put my napping skills to work right here in this office!

Points for not snitching!

This is a kid with a plan! One day he could either grow up to be the world's greatest supervillain or superhero — there is no in-between.

Look, not everyone wants to be a princess.

Can we all please just take a moment to appreciate this little girl living her best life out here as a horseshoe crab for Halloween? Keep doing you, kid.

Spotted in Central Park.

I'd like to think that Stephen is out there living his best, plaque-loving life, commemorating himself on various benches for no reason other than he had enough money to do so.

Mistakes were definitely made.

This poor Roomba vacuum got tangled in some toilet paper which blocked its sensors which meant there was nothing stopping it from going right over the stairs and...well, the rest of history.

He'll never know.

There was some attempt made, I guess but if we're being honest, I really feel like the postman slacked off a bit here.

"In some ways I feel cheated. But at the same time they don't lie."

Reddit | frystejp

Advertising doesn't get more honest than that. Although I'm sure a small note saying "actual size" would have helped this person avoid some disappointment.

Well now that's just... kind of true, actually.

He seems pretty excited to be on the boat, and all he had to do was bite down on a lil' worm for a second to get a free ride. Score!

Quiet back there, I'm trying to listen!

"By the way, does anyone smell burning plastic?"

Be kind and read the sign.

Remember, you have to leave some for the rest of the trick-or-treaters. No double dipping.

Brave bird.

By the fourth picture, it looks like Cap can't believe it's happened to him four times.

"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me four times... I need to try eating a heavier food."

Just when you think a meme is tired, it pulls you back in.

What a thriller. He went looking for the man in the mirror, and now he might be starting somethin'.

Welp, that's ironclad right there.

If only all legal disclaimers could be so clear, amirite? The prescription drug industry could be so much more fun.

Did anybody else sing along to this?

You have to admit, it's catchy! Public safety needs more Ray Parker Jr., if you ask me.

"Every year I get my boyfriend a cake for his birthday," wrote the uploader. "This year I asked what type he wanted. He said 'I don’t care.'"

Reddit | shesafireball

Well played. Pretty sure he'll care next year, especially if she reminds him with the photographic evidence. Either that, or Dora cakes will become an annual tradition.

Finally a candidate I can get behind in these troubled times.

Saying no to vacuums is real leadership, and that's a tough but firm policy on doorbell ringers. Thor has my vote.

Quality assurance you can trust.

Reddit | robotabot

And that's a fair price, although you do have to wonder about their remaining sturdiness after being worn in.

Blackouts aren't just an inconvenience, they're also an opportunity.

You know, if you want to bring a bit of authenticity to your Little House on the Prairie cosplay. But only a little bit.

More motivating than a lump of coal, I'm sure.

Reddit | CoffeeSlutt

It's harsh, but gets the message across. I know it would have worked on me as a kid!

James Fridman is a freakin' Photoshop master!

Of course, you've always got to be careful what you wish for when it comes to this guy. But it legit always ends up hilarious, so there's nothin' to lose.

Sometimes you'll do anything to satisfy that craving.

Even if that means hanging out with family. Even if that means hanging out with family that's not even your family! Argh, I'm going to get a hot dog now.

This dude's a total hypebeans...er, beast. 

Instagram | @boyswhocancook

Maybe I'm just hungry, but that's actually lookin' really good to me right now...okay, yeah, I must be really hungry.
