Ambiguity is inevitable. So when people run into it in everyday life, they often rely on their own assumptions, prior experience, or personal biases to fill in the gaps.
Found an anonymous "Thank You" note on the fridge? It's probably your partner expressing gratitude for the lunch you prepped them and not the ghost living under the bed. Noticed an abandoned umbrella in the park? Probably some absent-minded romantic left it there, and not Mary Poppins.
But too few cues can lead to confusion, a notion that the Facebook group 'Please, may I have a Crumb of Context?' successfully illustrates again and again, as its members share random pictures that raise more questions than they provide answers.

I’m guessing Wales is being plagued by feral teenagers egging houses.
Sounds like something someone with a truck full of overnight baguettes would say.
would be interesting if there was also a trampoline on the ceiling
I've seen this happen to cats a LOT. Couples? not so much.

You're meant to put it on, stretch it out so you can see the other person and have a distraction free conversation with them.
I very much prefer to connect my (inter)face directly to my wife's (inter)face in a process known as "kissing".

Before I read the comments I was convinced this was a religious cult with very strict gender segregation, and this was sone stupid new way to feel close to a date without actually being close.. I was still trying to figure out the yoga mats when I gave up and read the comments. Now I can't re-see the cult..

You know how some kids would peek through a cardboard paper towel roll? Those kids grew up to become these people.
I've long suspected that many yoga poses are strictly for the instructors' amusement.
Now I know how strange I am because I'd really like to try this out.
There's a ping-pong ball in the middle. The object is to...well...you figure it out.
A lot of people tried to put their heads through the sleeve in this photo. Stop shaming guys. It happens to all of us at some point in our lives.

When I was around 11 years old, me and my babysitter were hanging out in the playroom. She went to the bathroom, and I got bored so I went downstairs to check out the fridge. I heard her come out of the bathroom, and she started screaming my name. After the 3rd time, she stopped. I thought she figured out that I was downstairs. After a few minutes, I saw her coming down the stairs. As she looked at me, she froze and just stared at me. I asked her what's wrong, and she said she just saw me in the playroom before she went downstairs. She was really freaked out about it, and I don't know--I used to not believe in these things so I just laughed at her. The second time it happened, I was probably 16.

Had a really bad day today. This gave me a big belly laugh that I truly needed.
