I saw this link to an article entitled "Don't Even Try to Explain These Vintage WTF Pictures."
And it's true; the title says it all. They are bizarre and some are beyond explanation, though they would be interesting as writing prompts - just to see how people would possibly attempt to explain them.
But as I looked at the pictures, I couldn't help but think Yes, these are incredibly strange. But 150 years from now when our descendents look at old youtube clips or - God forbid - old Facebook statuses - they will think the exact same thing.
Sure, the vintage pictures are all strange - and some are even disturbing - such as the picture of a child with a cigarette in his mouth sitting next to a chicken - but what will future generations think of an episode of Jack Ass or a Lady Gaga video?

That is an awesome link. I bet you could spark some great free writes out of some of those pictures!
