"But every now and then, an exception comes along," he wrote on Twitter.

Bloch is among many social media users who applauded one man's photo, which originally appeared on Imgur.

In the photo, a man uses a selfie stick to get a unique angle of a sloth hanging from a tree.

The lazy animal hangs with one arm outstretched with a sly smile in what looks like a purposeful pose.

The photo has been viewed nearly 2 million times.
