The 'Things Filled With Beans That Shouldn't Be' trend, often associated with 'cursed images,' gained significant traction on platforms like Reddit, Tumblr, and Facebook around 2017. The humor stems from the sheer absurdity and mild revulsion of seeing sticky, wet baked beans inside expensive electronics, footwear, or household appliances. This subgenre of surrealism focuses on the 'wrongness' of the texture and the inexplicable effort taken to fill things like Crocs or PC cases with legumes. It is widely used to represent chaotic energy, unexpected disappointment, or simply to disturb the viewer's sense of normalcy in the most harmless yet unsettling way possible.
