“Broken India” shows the reality behind stylized Instagram photos of India. Launched by Limitless, a new Indian company in Singapore, the campaign challenges the rosy picture painted by “Beautiful India” and reveals the poverty and pollution that plague the country.

With the existence of the internet, I've realized that there are more crappy parents than I would like to know actually exist. You'd think that there would be some sort of IQ test or some kind of level of responsibility and maturity that should come with the possibility of reproducing. I get that sex isn't a difficult thing to do and isn't an extremely complicated process, but you'd think those that have gotten to the point of being sexually active would eventually...

Unfortunately the geniuses sometimes get too creative, providing internet fodder for the rest of us that can sit back and mock...
