Friday Frivolity: Stock Photos

Stock photos - especially public domain stock photos - are like music to the ears of bloggers. Or at least lazy bloggers like myself who can't be bothered to take our own photos for every single post we write. The thing is, some of the stock photos out there are weird. Like, Weird Al dueting with Björk in a video styled by Lady GaGa level weird. Just check these out -

Some are funny:


Some are cool:



Some are disturbing:



Some are just nightmares come to life:


And an inexplicably large number feature watermelons...

Now on to the link-up! :D
