Some folks seem to have all the luck. They stumble upon the coolest things or narrowly dodge disasters (which, admittedly, is a good thing).
It’s fair to say those who captured these photos were incredibly fortunate. On the bright side, they documented these moments so we could all share in their strokes of luck too.
“All the stuffed animals I’ve won so far at the arcade.”
Arcade prizes are notoriously difficult to win. Whether you’re testing your skills at the claw machine or aiming to accumulate enough tickets for a simple pencil, prepare to invest a significant amount of time. However, this individual appears to have discovered the secret formula.
“Finished my coffee to find a Bob Ross forest.”
Sure! Here’s a rewrite:
“Isn’t it incredible to stumble upon something so fascinating at the bottom of a coffee cup? It feels almost like destiny. One can imagine even Bob Ross would have appreciated the accidental coffee art created by this person, which is a delightful notion.”“A real bug got caught in my fake spiderweb.”
“A real bug got caught in my fake spiderweb.”
I’m unsure whether this is luck, skill, or pure randomness. Perhaps it’s a blend of all three. Nevertheless, what are the chances? It feels improbable, given the artificial nature of webs. And yet, it happened.
“My first major screw-up at the new job! It was a cable line and not a power line thankfully.”
The potential damage could have been much greater, especially in areas where power lines aren’t buried underground. However, the real stroke of luck would be if this individual manages to keep their job despite the incident.
“I found a shell that looks like an ear.”
Here’s a rewritten version of the paragraph:
Discovering something unexpected like this often brings good luck to the finder. This shell is now imbued with luck, a cherished charm promising good fortune. May its owner keep it close, finding lasting prosperity in its presence.
“This is a truck carrying the signs you see on the interstate.”
Certainly! Here’s a rewritten version of the paragraph:
“I think you have to be quite fortunate to witness something like this on the highway. While we’re all familiar with interstate signs, seeing them being transported is a rare and special sight.”
“This rock that looks like my pocket knife.”
Here’s a rewritten version of the paragraph:
“Imagine stumbling upon something like this again. If I were in their shoes, I might as well grab a lottery ticket. Who knows, their lucky streak might just be getting started. It’s worth a shot!”
“A burn on my finger is fading into a heart.”
Getting burned is never fortunate, but the pattern it forms can seem like a sign, whether positive or negative. In this instance, it’s a positive one. After all, who doesn’t appreciate the resemblance to a heart shape?
“A huge volume of superheated plasma just shot into space from the surface of the sun, and I was able to capture it using a special telescope from my backyard.”
Here’s a rewritten version: “In this instance, we are fortunate to witness such a remarkable close-up of the sun, revealing details that are typically beyond our view (please remember not to stare directly at the sun).”
“Fractured my glass case but the RGB fans turn it into a lightshow.”
Breaking your computer case isn’t fortunate, but on the bright side, the spectacle of a dazzling light show awaits until a replacement case arrives.
“The sunlight through my back door created a rainbow ‘eye’ inside.”
Here’s a rewritten version:
“Isn’t light fascinating? It touches a specific place at just the right time, unveiling a breathtaking sight. It’s truly remarkable, and this moment is no different. I wish such marvels happened at my house too.”
“Took this on my mom’s birthday. At the time my hands were shaky since it was cold and it came out like…”
“While this may not have been the intended picture, it unexpectedly turned out incredibly cool. In the end, they stumbled upon an unexpectedly fortunate outcome.”
“Glowing rocks! A whole bunch of Syenite-rich Fluorescing Sodalite I found last night.”
I swear, even when you know where to look, finding a bunch of cool rocks seems like winning the lottery. Of course, they’re always worth more after they’ve been processed, but this would make a really great addition to any rock collection.
“I ordered a 119-year-old book online and quite a few pages are uncut- meaning no one ever read it.”
This person definitely lucked out. They get to be the first person to ever read this book. Like, ever. In its 119 year existence. I guess it probably flew under the radar back when it was made at the beginning of the last century.
“I forgot I had some pens in my pocket when I did the laundry, nothing bad happened, but it did this to the pens.”
“This situation could have been much worse. The pens might have leaked in the washing machine, spreading ink everywhere. I’m not sure if it would have damaged the machine, but luckily, we don’t have to find out.”
“Found Amethyst pieces in a new gravel driveway.”
I’m amazed at how fortunate this is. Amethyst is incredibly beautiful, and with a good cut and polish, these gems would be even more stunning. If someone wanted to, they could likely sell them for some extra money.
“My dining room table houses a secret spiral staircase.”
The individual who possesses this residence (and dining table) is incredibly fortunate. I’ve often desired a hidden passage in my own home, but that dream has yet to materialize for me. Nonetheless, there’s always hope.
Honestly, this is the most amazing thing I’ve ever come across!
“Wild Mules on my cousin’s yard.”
I literally don’t even know where mules live, but it’s probably not that common to see this many in someone’s yard. Luckily, as far as wild animals go, they aren’t very harmful. Which means it’s just a cool (and lucky) sight to see.
“The very same table we bought used is on Murder in Amish Country!”
Isn’t it incredible? Just imagine having the exact same piece of furniture as the TV show you’re currently watching. Although, I have a feeling the Amish didn’t craft this table—or the one on the set. Nonetheless, it’s a neat little detail.
“This intersection in my neighborhood.”
I’m curious whether the city planners intentionally arranged this or if it’s purely coincidental (I suppose it hinges on when the streets were named). Either way, stumbling upon such an intersection nearby feels quite fortunate to me.
