One of the few things that the school system never really teaches you is that there is a difference between being right and simply being not wrong. While many things technically aren't "incorrect," something about them seems eerily too vague or coincidental to really be considered "correct" in a specific context.
These are just some examples of people who found a loophole in order to be not wrong.
I Mean, That's What It Really Looked Like
The worst part about just every math test or assignment from grade school was having to "show your thinking" for how you got the answer. It's math: it's about the destination, not the journey.
I Mean, When You Put It That Way...
Traditions are things we do because people used to do them so we might as well continue even though they're no longer particularly relevant to current times. It really is peer pressure.
Owning A Garage? In This Economy?
Maybe I could start a multi-billion dollar technology or internet company if I had a garage, but without one of those (or literally any of the skills needed to do so), I feel like it's not a realistic goal.
This Professor Wants To Help Contextualize The Facts
Does anyone else remember 2016? It was the last election year, evil clowns were running around public spaces with knives, and people were afraid of contracting Ebola. Luckily, Kim Kardashian is a much more present threat.
Lifeguards Only Have One Job
Here's a comprehensive list of things I would expect a lifeguard to do: be competent at blowing a whistle and save people's lives when they start to drown in the water. I don't think they need permission to do that.
Time To Buy A Box Of Donuts!
So you're telling me that there are six whole donuts inside a single 500ml bottle of Coca-Cola? Well, in that case, I think it's absolutely fine for me to eat 12.
She Literally Is Angela
I imagine being a celebrity actor must be fun when it comes to using social media because you can make a simple joke and have just everyone understand it. That is power.
He Did Kind Of Follow The Instructions
If anything, what this little boy did was objectively harder than simply sorting the list of words into their alphabetical order, and the answers in question one are still in alphabetical order.
Dads Go An Extra Mile To Make Their Point
Perhaps he still has a tiny bit of fuzz still growing from his scalp, but it's kind of like the crumbs at the bottom of a chip bag: they don't really count.
It's Pretty Slow Paced Right Now, But It Might Pick Up
Why spend your time on social media watching your favorite celebrities do a live stream of their daily activities when you could instead go out into nature and see the real thing?
Major Attendance At These Sorts Of Events
Hello sir, but if you hate the LGBTQ+ community, then why do you know when all their events are and find time to go to every single one of them? Checkmate.
They Can't Tow Him!
If this person had their truck towed for illegal parking, I bet that they could take the case to court and get all fines dropped in their favor. Green is green.
It Was A Simpler Time
Back in the good old days, no one was recklessly texting while driving. They were all too busy trying to set up shelters for themselves and trying not to die from smallpox, scurvy, and tuberculosis!
At Least 70 Years
Julius Caesar may have died in 44 BCE after being stabbed in the back by his friends, but it was more than 70 years ago. It's not about being exactly right—sometimes, you just have to be not wrong.
I'm Saving This One For My Next Ice Breaker
Icebreakers, while necessary, are the absolute worst. I'll know I've gone to hell if, on the first day, they ask all the newbies to sit in a circle and share a fun fact about themselves.
She Offers Inarguable Logic
If I had the last name "Best," not only would I refuse to change it, but I would also insist that my spouse and I give my last name to all of the kids.
Wow, It's Incredible!
I won't lie: I have a weird affinity for stationery and good ink pens. "What makes a good pen?" you might ask; well, its ability to write words is a first step.
The Label We Didn't Need But Deserved
I could swear this dog knew that it was standing right in front of its label and decided to majestically stare off into the distance in case someone wanted a photo.
Those Poor Chickens
On a daily basis, people are talking about relevant social justice movements to help better the lives of citizens everywhere. However, only this one person was brave enough to bring up the issue of chicken poverty.
He Do Be Moving Place To Place, Though
Talking to a romantic interest about your job is a lot like writing a resume to apply to a new one. You really have to spice up the description a little to get some attention.
We Support A Man Who Follows The Laws
Even though there are tons of road signs letting us know what we should look out for and what laws we need to obey, some people still don't follow them. This man is an inspiration.
Kid, Do You Even Have Eyes?
I love kids from the bottom of my heart because they have such a curious and inquisitive nature about them. However, there are such things as dumb questions. That said, I love this pun.
This One Is On The Teacher
Teachers, bless their souls, sometimes overestimate their students. If you let a student make an answer as simple as they want to, you have to be prepared for the simplest answer.
OMG I Got My Name For My Birthday, Too!
Very few people did not receive their name for their birthday—specifically, people who decided that their parents had poor taste and instead legally changed their name to something a little more fitting.
This Is An Excellent Self-Own
Some people feel the need to be right in an argument at all costs, even if that cost is the destruction and mocking of themselves. I have to admire the commitment.
Finally, A Reward For Being Clever
The worst part about being a kid is that you get punished and ridiculed by adults for outsmarting them a lot of the time. This kid finally got the recognition and respect we all once deserved.
He's An Entrepreneur
Mom, it's all about perspective and the attitude you bring toward your life. Rather than being a pessimist and angry about the employment, just be happy that he has a job!
I Think I Need To Lie Down
Do you ever have a thought in the shower that leads to a weird revelation that ruins the rest of your day? This would be one of them. I need to rest.
Thanks For Figuring That Out
We have to show our gratitude toward the hardworking scientists in our world who conduct experiments and draw conclusions so that we personally do not have to. I won't bite Dove soap now.
As Beyoncé Once Said, "To The Left, To The Left"
In all fairness, this illustrator could have easily have switched which path the lone person walked on with the one where the masses were walking. It was honestly poor planning on their part.
