One of the best parts about being an adult is seeing all of the stuff you never noticed as a child. There's a whole world of&nbsp;kid's books with double meanings out there&nbsp;just waiting to be explored. So many of the innuendos on this list will make you question both the writers and editors of children's books.&nbsp;Some of these double meanings are so blatantly obvious, that it seems like they must have been done on purpose. Others are more subtle in their inappropriateness. Honestly, it's a wonder how some of these books ever got published in the first place.&nbsp;There's certainly something&nbsp;special about these children's books with double meanings. Whether or not the innuendos were made on purpose really doesn't matter. What does matter is that these books are out there in the world for all of us (and our kids)&nbsp;to read. So sit back, relax, and let your innocence be destroyed by these wonderful&nbsp;kid's books with adult innuendos.&nbsp;

In the last century, technology and consumer products have changed drastically. Modern-day conveniences like computers were barely even a thought, and everyday technologies&nbsp;like washing machines and traffic lights are&nbsp;hardly recognizable when compared with their&nbsp;21st-century counterparts.The photos below, which compare&nbsp;modern objects, places, and technology with those of the past, shed some light on the progress of&nbsp;the last century.

Considering&nbsp;what everyday objects looked like in the past helps us understand how&nbsp;we&#39;ve developed as a society and how&nbsp;appreciative we should be of today&#39;s conveniences &ndash;&nbsp;we can even track this change and anticipate the evolution of the future.

Harley Quinn (DC Comics)

Most geeks&nbsp;can spot&nbsp;Harley Quinn,&nbsp;one of the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-famous-fictional-character-from-each-state/matthew-lavelle?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">most recognizable characters</a> in all of comics nerdom. The brilliant villain has had a number of unforgettable get-ups and as a result, there&#39;s no shortage of&nbsp;Harley Quinn cosplay in the world.&nbsp;

It&#39;s really hard to nail down the&nbsp;best Harley Quinn costumes. She&#39;s had so many iconic looks since debuting nearly two and a half decades ago. From the Batman: The Animated Series look, to the new&nbsp;costume, Harley Quinn has unmistakable style. She&#39;s had color, flair, and of course plenty of attitude helping her along the way.&nbsp;

It isn&#39;t just about what Harley Quinn wears though, it&#39;s also about the props. A proper bat&nbsp;can turn cute Harley Quinn outfits into totally badass cosplays. One thing is for sure, Harley Quinn certainly isn&#39;t going out of style. Whether it&#39;s for Halloween, for Comic Con, or just for fun, people love to dress up as her, and we love to see them do it.&nbsp;

Halloween: The one night a year you can be anyone else!

Getting in the Spooky Spirit

Graveyard Shift

Different people, cultures, and countries celebrate Halloween every year.&nbsp;From California to Hong Kong, the holiday has taken on many different shapes and sizes, but many people celebrate this wonderful holiday at the end of October. In many parts of Western Europe, for example, traditions of prayer and paying respects to the dead still hold true. Halloween in other countries, like Japan and Australia for example, is pretty much void of any religious significance and is instead a day for younger generations&nbsp;to dress up and party. Of course, not everyone celebrates Halloween - countries in the Middle East and parts of Asia don&#39;t do a lot of pumpkin carving for the holiday.&nbsp;

America has been largely responsible for the increasing popularity of Halloween around the world, and how other countries celebrate Halloween&nbsp;is largely based on how America celebrates it. In the United States, <a href="https://mymodernmet.com/what-is-the-history-of-halloween/" target="_blank">Halloween</a> has largely transformed into a party day and much of the world has begun to adapt that American version of Halloween. Weird Halloween celebrations all over the world are being replaced by the commercialized party-centric version of Halloween that America has created.&nbsp;

Sitcom Fan Theories

Futurama

If you like Futurama, then you&#39;ll probably love these&nbsp;Futurama fan theories. When fans think about shows, we all benefit. Especially when they come up with theories as great as these.

Some fans wonder if the entire show is just one long dream sequence, and others focus more on the&nbsp;impossibility of death. Is Hermes working undercover? Does Bender only drink beer so he can look cool?&nbsp;Whatever speculations you subscribe to,&nbsp;there are tons of Futurama theories out there. Some of them are totally outlandish and seem highly unlikely, while others are practically canonical at this point. Of course, not everyone likes fan theories. Some purists&nbsp;only like things that happen definitively in the show. For them, evidence is key and speculation is the&nbsp;enemy.&nbsp;&nbsp;

A lot of the evidence for these fan theories comes from the Easter eggs the writers spread all over the show. From hidden meanings and character appearances&nbsp;from other shows to comical jabs at current events, Futurama Easter eggs have it all.

It&#39;s time to brush up on your&nbsp;Futurama trivia. Check out&nbsp;these great fan theories below.&nbsp;

Dessert is the most important meal of the day, depending on who you ask. Ice cream and chocolate chip cookies are classics, but they're far from the only sweet snacks out there.

From apple pie to chocolate cakes, sweetness rules when it comes to American desserts.&nbsp;That isn't the case everywhere, though. In some countries, desserts are made more savory than sweet, more refreshing than heavy. Many places around the world favor light and refreshing desserts, while others will eat desserts consisting of things that we associate&nbsp;more with&nbsp;breakfast foods.&nbsp;Desserts in other countries can be marvelous,&nbsp;baffling, and irresistible, and this list is chock full of them. &nbsp;

There's just something about natural disasters that people find tragically fascinating. From Vietnam to New Orleans, pictures from around the world capture the majesty and destructive force of floodwaters.Hurricanes or tsunamis cause some floods, others simply occur after copious amount of rainfall. Whatever the reason, certain parts of the world have to deal with severe flooding on a yearly basis. Places like southern Asia and the American South are highly represented when it comes to historical pictures of floods because they see significant flooding almost every year.&nbsp;On rare occasions, there are floods of things other than water. Take the Great Molasses Flood of 1919 for example. It covered the streets of Boston in sticky molasses, killing several people in the process.Some of these historical photos of floods are quite old, others are from more recent history.

Minecraft

&nbsp;

Minecraft is awesome, but it can also be pretty dystopian. The <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-games-like-minecraft/ranker-games" target="_blank">nearly limitless creativity</a> means that plenty of amazing things are done and created on a regular basis. It also means plenty of very annoying people doing very annoying things. Depending on your sense of humor (or lack thereof),&nbsp;these things can be pretty hilarious.

Some gamers tend to turn the world of Minecraft into something that more closely resembles Grand Theft Auto than an innocent sandbox game. From massacring villagers to building perverted monuments, there are a lot of messed up things from Minecraft. To be fair, even some of the most frustrating elements are wildly creative.&nbsp;

If you&#39;ve ever been on the receiving end of someone&#39;s irritating actions in Minecraft, then you may not think they&#39;re funny. And there is certainly no shortage of people being jerks in Minecraft. The key is to remember that it&#39;s just a game, albeit one with near limitless potential to be as messed up as you want -&nbsp;until you get booted from a server, at least.

Athletes from all over the world compete in the XXIV Olympic Games from February 4 to 22, 2022, in Beijing.

The Olympic Games

Hosting the Olympics almost always backfires. It sounds glamorous, but in reality, it's anything but. Cities build massive arenas and hotels just to accommodate the events and athletes&nbsp;and then have virtually nothing to use them for after the games hit the road.&nbsp;As a result, the world is positively littered with abandoned Olympics venues. From Sarajevo to Athens, most places just can't handle the Olympics.Start to finish, host cities run inevitably run into problem after problem. One of the biggest problems is almost always infrastructure. Hosting the Olympics requires several venues and arenas, pretty much all of which need to be new or at least newly renovated.Of course, after the Olympics are over, there's really no more need for said venues. Some continue to get used for various purposes, but many inevitably fall into a state of disrepair. The specialty sites, in particular,&nbsp;the ones built for things like bobsledding and other less popular sports, are usually the first to go. In the end, the upkeep on old Olympic sites just hasn't been worth it for most past host cities. There are ghost sites from previous Olympics all over the world. Here are some of the creepiest.

When it comes to gamers, there are three tiers. The first,&nbsp;casual gamers.&nbsp;The second,&nbsp;hardcore gamers. The third,&nbsp;gamers&nbsp;so dedicated they&nbsp;take on video game DIY projects. These gamers will make everything from background props to functioning replica weapons.&nbsp;Sometimes gamers dabble in video game DIY just for cosplay purposes. Other gamers are so good at such projects, they've&nbsp;been able to make a living remaking things from games.By far one of the most popular things to make IRL from video games is&nbsp;weapons. Gamers seem to love making weapons they use in games. A few such weapons&nbsp;are even functional, though most are as harmless as the plastic from which they're made.&nbsp;While just about every game has objects that can be replicated in real life, there are a handful of games people seem to turn to time and time again for their DIY projects. Borderlands, Fallout, and Halo are&nbsp;a few of the franchises from which&nbsp;gamers frequently replicate things.&nbsp;In the gaming world, there are plenty of people who built objects from video games.

<a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/video-games-that-would-make-good-movies/loganrapp?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Movies based on video games</a> are a tough sell. Over the years, they've earned a reputation as being hugely disappointing for a number of different reasons. It's not entirely a mystery why they always fail. There are a handful of problems every video game movie faces. From terrible acting to dreadful plots, video game movies are just bad news. Usually, there are a few exceptions to any rule, but when it comes to video game movies, that really isn't the case. Not a single one has ever earned overwhelming praise from critics. Although a few have been monetarily successful, none have reached any level of critical success. Many gamers have been left scratching their heads, asking themselves, &quot;Why are video game adaptations always bad?&quot;&nbsp;Luckily, there's good news. It's been a long time since the first video game movie was made, and it looks like studios and directors might finally be headed in the right direction. Better games are being adapted and more care is being put into video game movies. Granted, it might take some time before we see any critical accolades, but for now, the box office success of Warcraft will do.&nbsp; There are plenty of reasons video game movies are bad. We can only hope that the industry learns from its past mistakes and starts making better movies soon. Here are some reasons why video game movies are doomed to fail.

There&#39;s a raging debate about whether or not some of the scary things in Minecraft are even really real.

If you&#39;ve had Goldschl&auml;ger before, chances are you either love it or hate it.

Nonetheless, a surprisingly small number of people actually know about&nbsp;Goldschl&auml;ger history.&nbsp;

The thing is, while brands like Jack Daniels and even Grey Goose have a heritage they&#39;re proud of, Goldschl&auml;ger&nbsp;doesn&#39;t. The brand has been passed around from company to company and manufactured in a number of different places. How it&#39;s survived this long is anyone&#39;s guess.

Fortunately, thanks to a number of recent discoveries, scientists have discovered quite a few real plants that are like Star Wars&nbsp;worlds.&nbsp;Thanks to NASA, we now know that there are around 20 billion Earth-like planets in our galaxy alone. That means 20 billion potential real life equivalents of Star Wars planets. Some of the heavenly bodies are barren looking while others are dangerously close to nearby stars, but many of them seem like they'd be right at home having Ewoks and Tauntauns running all over them.&nbsp;Eventually, humans might even be able to jump into their own Millennium Falcon and explore these planets, as long as we can get the hyperdrive working.

Tattoos are much more accepted nowadays than they used to be. In the past, tattoos had a certain negative connotation associated with them. While that&#39;s not entirely gone now, it&#39;s definitely subsided considerably. With that in mind, it might be surprising to learn that there are many world leaders with tattoos, and even more past world leaders with tattoos than you would have ever expected.&nbsp;

President Barack Obama might not have any tattoos (that we know of), but a couple of former US&nbsp;presidents certainly did. Canadian&nbsp;Prime Minister Justin Trudeau&nbsp;has a tattoo, and there are several congressmen and congresswomen past and present who have tattoos. Tattoos are all over the political landscape, but many politicians choose to keep them out of sight when it comes time for pictures.

There still aren&#39;t any world leaders with face tattoos, but the Czech Republic almost claimed that throne when&nbsp;Vladimir Franz -&nbsp;a man with a full-fledged face tattoo - ran for president. It&#39;s becoming more and more acceptable for politicians with tattoos to put them on public display, though many, if not most, still choose to keep them covered most of the time. 

Check out this list of some of the most interesting politicians who have tattoos. You might even get some ideas for your next tattoo!

There are many urban legends surrounding the popular liqueur and often times, who knows how to tell the real&nbsp;J&auml;germeister facts from the fake ones?It's safe to say that J&auml;germeister's tendency to get people real drunk real fast is a major contributing factor to all of the misinformation out there.

Couple that with the growing trend of J&auml;gerbombs and you have a recipe for disaster, or a great time, depending on how you look at it.

Comic Strips

Calvin and Hobbes, revered by many as the last great newspaper comic strip, has a rich and interesting history. There was a time when <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-comic-strips-ever/ranker-comics">newspaper comics</a> could be counted upon to be funny, informative, witty, and so much more. Familiar, unforgettable characters like Charlie Brown, Garfield, and, of course, Calvin and Hobbes all reliably played out regular short stories that provided reliable humor and even insight in the pages of the paper. Nowadays, comic strips don't quite have the same luster. <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/bill-watterson-books-and-stories-and-written-works/reference">Bill Watterson</a> wrote and illustrated Calvin and Hobbes from 1985 to 1995. He led Calvin and his stuffed animal/feline best friend Hobbes on endless adventures for just ten years, but in that relatively brief time, the comic strip would cemented its place in publication history. The imaginative world of Calvin and Hobbes has inspired generations of fans young, but not everyone knows all of the Calvin and Hobbes history. From what started the comic strip to why it ended to just why you can't go out and buy a Hobbes plush, there are plenty of Calvin and Hobbes facts that enrich Bill Watterson's world.

Incest is a serious taboo across many <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/weirdual-practices-from-world-cultures/jeffrichard?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">cultures around the world</a>, but you may not believe just how much incest there has been throughout history. Cousins marrying cousins, mothers and sons, daughters and fathers, distant relatives of all sorts &mdash; incest in history is not as uncommon as one might think.

Beyond the taboo act of incest, the powerful figures who partook in incest span across all types of nobles. It&#39;s not all just incest to keep power in the family: Intellectuals and scholars participated as well, and even a US president.&nbsp;

We know of a few of the cases of modern incest, including famous figures from Hollywood who were either consensual partners in incest or victims of incest, but the picture of historical incest is slightly more muddled, as there was typically no official database or record of who married whom.

All of the incest on this list is either documented in some form or strongly alleged &mdash;&nbsp;and none of it was written by George R.R. Martin.

Celebrities

The list of celebrities who predicted their deaths is unfortunately long. Many of these deaths shocked the world into a state of disbelief, while others were met with more of an unsurprised sadness. Either way, one thing is clear: All these actors, musicians, athletes and other public figures saw their end coming long before everyone else. That is perhaps the saddest part of all. &nbsp;

Some of these celebrity death predictions are eerily intricate and precise, while others are slightly vague but immensely foreboding. Musicians appear on this list the most by far. Rappers, rockers, and more appear to be especially talented at predicting their own demise. It may have to do with the unique knowledge they have, or it could be simply the situations they frequently find themselves in. It&#39;s not all musicians, though. Athletes, writers, and famous composers have also been successful in predicting their own deaths. Perhaps the most surprising, though, is the famous mathematician who was obsessed with death.

Many of the people on this list were&nbsp;far too young when they passed. There are multiple members of the infamous &quot;<a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-lists/the-27-club-a-brief-history-17853/" target="_blank">27 Club</a>&quot; on the list, as well as a few who were even younger than that when they perished. These famous predicted deaths might have been foreseen by some, but they are tragic, nonetheless.
