Hilarious People Who Deserve To Wear The Genius Hat
Sometimes life has simple fixes to the problems we encounter. While the rest of us are stuck Googling how to grow another arm so we can finally watch TV, eat Cheetos, and paint our nails at the same time, these geniuses are out here figuring it all out for us.
Here are some hilarious geniuses who are really living in the future and innovating to make the world a better place. Their solutions are lazy, hard to look at, and almost always involve duct tape, but they're winning in ways we're not. We're in awe of their brainpower.
The Chair-brella
This man clearly didn't check the forecast before leaving the house, but a little water never stopped an innovator from innovating.
He's completely soaked and clearly this isn't working, but his thought process deserves an award. Or a throne.
Friend Not There? Grab The IPad And A Bunch Of Clothes

So when you don't have a romantic partner to spend it with, just find someone willing to be one for a three-second photo.
The Kid With The Lip Balm Cheese Stick
If this kid isn't a CEO in the making then I'm not sure who would be. Finally, now we all know what to do with the empty lip balm cases after we've used it all up.
I'm wondering if this works with pepperette meat as well...
They Were Gonna Google It Anyway...
This customer service genius just cut out the middle man.
Seriously, when you ask someone for the best moderately priced family restaurants in the city just know that your request is getting directed to our favorite concierge Google.
What To Do When You Want To Spend Quality Time With Your Beverage And Your Child
Not sure if this is a parenting hack, a lazy hack, or a hack for anyone who wants their child to imprint their parental love on a piece of string.
It might be all three and I'm not sure how I feel about it.
The Kid Whose Costume Was A Clothing Essential
Why not be something for Halloween that you know, love, and rely on every single day? This is some classic two-year-old logic and I applaud this kid's unwillingness to follow the Halloween trends.
Might as well do it now before they grow up and hate every pair of pants they own.
This Golf Lover Who's Not Familiar With "Walking" The Dog
To be fair, this person could've had an injury, could've been unable to walk, or maybe just hated their dog and didn't want to touch it.

Or you're witnessing the fall of every job site.

They Didn't Have A Microwave So They Gave Their Food A Blowout

He did it with a dad joke no less, and we're all amazed at this pinnacle of a father.
The Candy Hiding Hack That's Pretty Brilliant
This would be a great hack if this wasn't a bag of frozen vegetables sitting in a cupboard.

Why Buy A Good Speaker When You Can Buy A Pot?
