5. “My confused brother-in-law”
6. “This dog buried in snow”
7. “My Boston loves sitting on her wrists.”
8. “These 2 tawny frogmouths trying to blend in with the bark on the tree”
9. “The biggest bug I’ve ever seen”
10. “Confusing Disney World”
11. “I think my daughter napped for too long.”
12. “The red Tuck Tape used to connect the sections of our new heat vent makes it look like a pink neon portal.”
13. “Where’s his hand?”
