Pinterest has quickly become a hot social site for curating themed boards for things like wedding planning, recipes and fashion. Among the pretty pin boards, there are also a lot of weird photos that kind of make us go, "WTF?"
That's exactly the sentiment Allison Tyler had, which inspired her to create the Tumblr WTF Pinterest.
"I started the site on a whim, as a place to share the things that run through my head when I see ridiculous items on Pinterest," says Tyler. "I didn't realize it would resonate with so many others."
The site averages about 50,000 hits a week, with most coming directly, and Pinterest itself being the biggest outside source of traffic.
According to Tyler, the posts that get pinned the most are the silly posters she's made herself that poke fun at Pinterest users. One, for example, is "Pinebriated: When you can't remember if you've already pinned that."
As far as the weirdness goes, Tyler says "you have to take what you see with a grain of salt but people re-pin the craziest things as truth, and don't seem to feel the need to investigate and discover if the pins are even based in fact."
We've round up ten of the weirdest pins we could find from WTF Pinterest. What's the weirdest thing you've come across on Pinterest? Let us know in the comments.
