Times Kids Proved They’re Basically Aliens

Kids are so strange. It's kind of hard to believe that we all started out life that way. Kid logic is something that makes us scratch our heads and think, "where do they come up with this stuff?" It's almost like they're from another planet sometimes...or at least a different wavelength.

This kid thought that they were loading up that whipped cream with some more sugar, but it was salt. Did that stop them from loving every piece of it and coming back for more? Nope.

Most kids go through phases of those kind of traditional Halloween costumes like princess, fireman, zombie, witch—you don't expect your little one to want to be a pair of jeans.

This is what happens when you swallow a penny to prove to your little brother that you swallowed a sim key earlier that day. You get a trip to the hospital and likely a lecture on what not to put in your mouth.

It's exhausting work putting all your laundry away. Most of us just leave it in the basket until it becomes a mix of clean and dirty clothes. She deserves that nap.

Yes, he could be relaxing in that awesome pool there behind him, but there must be something about the dirty water in that bucket that makes him so happy. Why else would he chill in there?

He Dressed For The Occasion

Kids always have these weird fascinations with things that don't allow them to think rationally all the time. Take this kid who had to bring this creepy mask to a wedding with him. Why? No one knows.

When a kid demands something from you, who are you to argue with them? She wanted to have a bunch of plastic balls shoved down her onesie, and that's what she got.

I get that being a kid means that you need to experiment and learn things about yourself and your style, but does wearing a diaper on your head really seem like the statement one wants to make?
