It seems like everywhere we look these days we’re bombarded with advertisements. You can’t even watch a YouTube video, look up a recipe or scroll through Instagram without seeing various products promoted. And many of those ads are suspiciously for things you’ve been talking about for the past few hours.

But if you’re looking for a page that’s full of strange, no-context images that aren’t trying to sell you anything, you’ve come to the right place. Below, you’ll find some of our favorite pics from the F Advertisements Instagram page, which, contrary to what you might assume, doesn’t actually post ads. Enjoy scrolling through these bizarre images, and be sure to upvote the ones you get a kick out of!

To learn more about F Advertisements on Instagram, we reached out to the page’s creator via email. They were kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda and shared their inspiration for how the account came about in the first place. 

“I wanted to create a Tumblr-style page about nostalgic consumerism with the word advertisements in it,” the creator explained. “Over the years, it may have changed a little, but that's how the internet works. It’s always evolving, so does the content.”

Since its creation in 2015, F Advertisements has amassed an impressive 1.7 million followers. But the account’s creator says they’re “completely numb” to the fact that the page is so popular. “It’s not my face on the page, so I don’t feel anything,” they shared.

And when it comes to how they decide what to post, they told Bored Panda, “Some photos just have a certain vibe that fits, can’t really explain it.” The creator also noted that the majority of photos they share are found online. “About 10 percent of the photos are my own that I’ve taken myself,” they added.

Because of the page’s name, we were also curious what the creator’s opinions are on what makes a great advertisement. But they shared that they “really don’t think about it.” They did, however, note that their favorite ad is the “Budweiser ‘wassup’ commercial from 20 years ago.” 

Finally, the account’s creator wanted to add that they’re “really into pepper jack cheese these days.”

While scrolling through these photos, you might be wondering what you’re looking at, pandas. But we hope that you’re at least entertained! Bizarre, no-context pics have been flourishing on the internet in recent years, and the F Advertisements account is just one more place to find these strange images. Across the vast landscape of the internet, you can find cursed food pics, strange and confusing photos of animals and no-context pics from television shows and movies. And regardless of whether or not we understand where these pics came from, we can still find them enjoyable!

No-context screenshots from shows and movies are particularly popular online. Mint Lounge published a piece detailing the sensation of these screenshots, where they note that various accounts on X and Instagram have popped up over the past few years that are committed to sharing exclusively Succession screenshots, Schitt’s Creek screenshots and more. “Accounts dedicated to popular dramas and pop culture icons have mushroomed around the world, occupying a unique place at the intersection of online fandom, satire and current affairs,” Shephali Bhatt writes.

Many of these purely “no-context screenshot” accounts don’t monetize their content and are purely for the enjoyment of the creator and their followers. They might turn screenshots into memes, share funny lines that only viewers will understand or set up followers for reposts where they can add their own context to images. The same can be said for the photos posted on F Advertisements as well. Because we don’t understand how many of them came to be, we can add our own context to them and apply them to infinite other funny scenarios.

You never know what you’re going to encounter when you visit a page with no-context pics. But if you’re lucky, you’ll find something that makes you laugh! You’re likely to also find something that confuses you, but it’s in our nature to be curious about what we don’t understand and even drawn to things that gross us out or scare us. You certainly don’t have to think too deeply about any of the pics on this list, but if you find them to be entertaining, we’ll consider that a success!
