Similar to this subreddit and this Instagram account, the Facebook page 'Daily Cursed Images' shares absurd, strange, and slightly unsettling pictures that somehow feel both innocently funny and wickedly malevolent at the same time.
Whether it's a surreal visual gag, such as an animal with human-like features, or questionable decisions, like pouring a can of beans into a washing machine instead of laundry detergent, these uploads certainly provide more questions than they give answers, and the deliberately empty captions don't help, either.
However, the lack of context and reason is what makes scrolling through this page so entertaining. You never know what you're going to see next. And in a time when so much of social media is just the same recycled ideas, that's kinda refreshing.

- Beyond the everyday behaviors of interest and extreme comfort (smile, hand-holding, head tilt, etc.), look for hip-to-hip standing (things are good); palms touching with the full hand versus fingertips or a fist (these show distancing and reserve); crossing of the legs while standing (if they were to fall they would fall toward a specific person—this is a high-comfort display and also a show of preference), or any other number of displays that say: I like this person or, I am uncomfortable at the moment.
- As in physics, intrusive observations affect what we are observing, so don’t be surprised when people are caught by the paparazzi and they are upset (showing cues of psychological discomfort). Like Sean Penn, I would not want photographers lurking outside my house every day with cameras.
- "Selfies" are perhaps the most unreliable photos to analyze because of poor quality, low resolution, fuzzy image, and the necessity to clump together two or more faces to the exclusion of the rest of the body. Keep in mind that there are other parts of the body that are more reliable than the face when it comes to true feelings.
However, as Navarro pointed out, we must remember that when we see a photograph, we are witnessing a moment in time that may or may not reflect the reality of that moment.
"We may be seeing reactions by individuals to their environment, what has transpired in the recent past, what may await them when the picture-taking is over, or who is present in the room, as well as how they feel emotionally at the moment—but even then it is difficult to discern the true cause," 25-year veteran of the FBI explained. "So, we have to be careful with any analysis of a mere photograph and not go beyond what we can logically say."
Sometimes, all we can do is just scroll through.
