Coworker Accidentally Ordered "Rude Nature Moments" Calendars
It was a routine day of receiving Amazon packages when the drama unfolded. I opened a box full of 2026 calendars – all the usual nature clichés: national parks, winding trails, and a sleek orchid. The office’s “Calendar of the Month” had become a shrine of botanical serenity.
In the same aisle, a coworker was giddy at the prospect of claiming the next set before anyone else. I gave the purchasing person a quick call; “Sure, grab what you want.” That was the green light.
We flipped through the calendars – front and back, glossy and soothing. Then we noticed something that made us both pause. One of the back covers featured a mushroom that, when you squinted, looked suspiciously phallic. We stared at each other, then burst out, “It’s all dicks! There’s a dick cloud, a dick cactus, a dick flower!”
The laughter was contagious. The other workers begged to see the “special edition” calendars. Naturally, we all converged on the one with the unmistakable mushroom.
I marched up to the purchasing person, triumphant, and proudly presented the “majestic” mushroom calendar, explaining its artistic merit. They realized their mistake, and the higher-ups swooped in, confiscating both calendars and issuing a stern warning: never speak of this again.
I’ve never felt so proud of a joke in my life. The office never looked the same.
The best comment:
“Cecil b de Mille can eat his heart out but this is literally the greatest story ever told!”
TL;DR: Office receives nature calendars → discovers mushroom‑looking phallus → laughs → boss confiscates them. Classic workplace comedy.
