Stock photography, much like people, is sometimes just weird and awkward. You can be the judge on whether the awkwardness is intentional or not. Not to say that these pictures don't have value, they most definitely do. At some point, you will have a dire need for a weird image that has elegantly captured true awkwardness.
These
stock photos can be funny, especially if you create a context which adds to the awkwardness. Let's take a look at a few images and revel in their awkwardness.

If he is willing to wear a swimsuit like that, it's not surprising that he somehow got tangled up with a chair. There is no way that ended well . . .for either of them.
That's probably plenty of awkwardness to get us through the day. Feel free to comment and give your interpretations.
