Everyday things don't have to be boring. Thanks to Reddit, we have a way for the internet collective posts its most "kind of cool" images that may make you look at everyday things a little differently. Most of these things aren't too far out of the ordinary, but they're still worth a look, because you never know how you'll perceive these things in the future now that you know their mildly interesting backstories.

Now, we're not saying these things are the most exceptionally unique things in the world. Don't get your expectations too high, because remember, we're just going off the recommendations of a bunch of Redditors here, and they're not always the most trustworthy group. But we can confirm that we stared at each of these images for a little while longer than we reasonably should have. When you feel like caring — just a little about something new, these are the best images to get you thinking.
