30 Times Things Basically Could Not Have Turned Out Worse

We all have bad days, but some days can be a lot worse than others. Whether you’re perpetually unlucky, or you’re stuck in a rut, everyone has a day where they think “this can’t get any worse” but then life goes and proves you wrong by getting way worse.

Luckily in the age of social media, those bad days or bad moments are documented on the internet for us to laugh at in solidarity with those suffering.

Too Bad He Didn’t Sea This Coming

You’re just out there trying to enjoy a day at the beach, you’ve finally fulfilled your dream of being buried in the sand.

And then those stupid birds have to come along and ruin everything.

Their Claim To Flame

Note to self: If you’re going to burn a candle in the bathroom, make sure you put out the flame before you leave the bathroom.

Otherwise, you’ll have a smoke-themed mural on your bathroom wall forever.

Time to Wash Your Mouth Out

They said they were learning how to take someone’s temperature, and they’ve definitely learned a lesson after this incident.

Hopefully, someone cleaned those thermometers after the last time they were used…

This Was Some Fowl Play

This is the true epitome of an Instagram vs. reality photo. All you wanted was your boyfriend to take a nice picture for the Gram so you can prove to everyone you’re living the Italian dream…

In this case, the dream is to escape all the pigeons.

Deja Vu

Imagine managing to tip over not just one, but two ladders while you’re on the roof.

And of course, he had to take a picture of his severe misfortune before (hopefully) using said phone to call for backup.

Before The Storm

Her night is about to get a lot worse, but the upside is she managed to get a photo where she still looked good…

At least before she was covered in whatever alcohol was inevitably in that slushy.

Might As Well Throw Out The Whole Thing

This is why you don’t cook caramel at all.

Unless you are confident that it’s going to turn out well, don’t even try because you could end up with a pot of molten lava instead of dessert.

Frozen In Terror

Okay, people, enough is enough. Unless it’s Halloween and you’re looking to scare some small children, or you’re a professional cake decorator, stay away from the Pinterest cake DIYs.

Do yourself and everyone around you a favor.

Burn Baby Burn

This is basically the worst thing that could’ve come from doing laundry for the first time, aside from the washer exploding or something.

One upside is that whatever clothes were in there are definitely dry now.

It Breaks My Heart To Look At This

I don’t know if this person is being or serious or not, but for their sake, I hope it’s just a joke.

If it’s not… Just look at those nails. They put it way too far up the nail bed.

Don’t Beat Yourself Up About It

Quite frankly, we have questions about this one. Why was a set of beaters even this close to someone’s sweater?

Also, what were you baking and do you want to share?

Stranger Things Have Happened

This looks like some sort of monster from a horror movie who’s trying to emerge from the sewers.

Whoever is in charge of cleaning this up is almost definitely going to get sucked into The Upside Down.

He’s The American Psycho

You should’ve known when you saw that his profile name was “Lit Lord” that it probably wasn’t going to be the most stimulating conversation, but there’s really no coming back from this.

Time to unmatch and move on.

Retreat Slowly

Clearly animals in tourist spots are sick of having to be in everyone’s photos and they’ve decided to rebel.

First the pigeons now the monkeys. The tourist wildlife rebellion is alive and well.

Don’t Underestimate Your Parents

This kid must have been so disappointed. He thought he’d concocted the ultimate master plan to have seemingly unlimited Doritos, but his parents were one step ahead of him and now they’re giving them all away…

Talk about learning a lesson the hard way.

The Soundtrack Of Your Life

Never get too comfortable with your surroundings, otherwise, you’ll end up falling five feet and potentially ripping your friends face off in the process.

I hope the concert was worth the trip to the medic after.

This Takes Blacking Out To A New Level

Picture this: You wake up from a long night out, feeling a bit sick and have a killer headache.

You roll over in your bed and all you can see is a scorpion in a tank just staring back at you. Whoever did this must have had one stellar night.

Poppin Bottles

This is definitely not the champagne shower she was hoping for on her big day…

It’s more of a champagne flood considering her feet and legs are now drenched.

It’s Delivery But It’s Not Delicious

One boy’s mom tried to use the Domino’s pizza app for the first time and he couldn’t resist sharing because it went about as bad as you’d expect.

She forgot to mark that she wanted sauce or cheese on the “pizza,” so instead, she got cooked bread with overcooked pepperoni. Yum.

Trust? Broken

Getting even an inch cut off your hair can seem like a big deal. You put a lot of trust in your hairdresser, and then they go and do this!?

We wouldn’t be surprised if this girl never got her hair cut again.

Hope They Got A Refund

If you want to scar your child and all of her friends for life, give her this Elsa cake.

It’s conjured out of everyone’s worst nightmares and looks like it was decorated in the dark.

He Could Live In The Sewers With Pennywise

Imagine dropping your dog off at the groomers and coming back to find him looking like, as his owner put it, “a sewer rat on…” well, we’ll just let you guess.

Luckily, a dog’s hair grows pretty quickly so he’ll be back to normal in no time.

America Runs On Soggy Donuts

Who in their right mind would think that this is what the customer was ordering?

Yes, the customer is always right, but maybe you should double-check the order before you ruin three perfectly good donuts.

Shattering Expectations

You spend all that time slaving over your meal…

Only to have the serving dish shatter along with all your hopes and dreams of ever having your own show on the Food Network.

Well This Is A Disaster

The weight of that Tupperware-filled cupboard every family has was finally too much for someone’s kitchen and it all came crashing down.

Yep, along with their dreams of ever having a clean kitchen.

Too Hungry To Care

This boy ordered an egg and cheese bagel, and nothing about what he was given is correct. There’s no bagel, there’s no cheese, and there’s a whole frickin egg.

Despite this, his girlfriend confirmed he still ate it.

This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things

Cereal seemed like such a safe bet at the time… You want your child to be independent and learn to do things for themselves,.

But then they go and dump the entire container of CoCo Puffs on the ground and you’re stuck cleaning it up.

Triple A For Effort

Imagine having to place the call into your own company to say that you now also need assistance getting keys from your car.

At least it makes the trip worth it for the second AAA truck – killing two birds with one stone or whatever.

Don’t Strain Yourself

This man was trying to cook his wife a nice meal for her birthday so he decided to make homemade chicken stock, but when the recipe said to strain the broth his dinner plan went down the drain.

Looks like you get everything but the broth for dinner!

This Attracts All Kinds Of ‘Birds’

You literally had one job. All you had to do was think of a third bird name, and instead, you went with ‘squirrel.’

Even if it’s probably true, you’re not supposed to advertise that someone’s yard will be filled with squirrels.

There Goes The Morning Coffee

Nothing warns of a bad day like a bird pooping all over the top of your take out coffee.

It’s basically the universe’s way of saying you should just go home and lie down.

Goodbye Camera Equipment

If a shark comes and carries away your camera gear, the best you can do is wait it out and hope that they drop it off nearby.

Otherwise, best to write it off.

But The Icing Is The Best Part

Imagine deciding that you were going to splurge on a donut and then you get it home and unwrap it…

Only to find that all of the icing was gone?

That’s What You Get For Eating Healthy

I’m not quite sure how this person’s Magic Bullet turned into an actual bullet and destroyed their kitchen, but this is just further proof that smoothies aren’t it.

Now they’ll need a Magic Eraser.

This Seems Like The Opposite Of A Problem

When you’re not used to taking baths you have no idea how much bubbles to put in something, especially a hotel shower.

The logic doesn’t really add up, but it’s not the worst thing ever, right?

How Did This Even Happen?

This person was in the changing room, trying on clothes for so long that the people who work at the store forgot they were there and locked them in.

Guess they’ll have to wait until morning.

Talk About Being Caught Red Handed

Stealing artwork and then taking it to a club may seem like a great idea because it’s dark and full of other people.

But then you have to remember that clubs have photographers…

Just A Lovely Lunch Time Guest

While many of us love entertaining, no one likes an unexpected guest who comes around at meal time.

This pigeon stopped by at just the wrong time, but what can you do?

Why Didn’t She Say Anything?

She took this picture into her nail salon and asked for the same look and the nail technician painted on the glare from the picture on the nails.

It doesn’t even look that cute.

That’s What You Get

This is why you should just accept your fate and wait it out like the rest of us when it comes to traffic.

You never know when you’re going to drive into some fresh concrete.

That’s A Good Look

It won’t be long until these two different shoes for two different feet thing sticks and is like the next big thing.

He’s a trend started, and he doesn’t even realize it yet.

Not The Way To Start Your Day

How does something like this even happen? Is this a case of overfilled cupboards, or is this what happens when you leave all the cupboard doors open?

We need answers. We need to know.

It’s Going To Be Chilly In There

Don’t you hate how cold the car gets in the wintertime?

It’s a good thing you can keep all the windows closed and the cold snow out….oh wait. Maybe not for this person.

Everyone There Will Remember Him

This guy missed the memo on the party invite. He thought he was going to a cool costume party, but it turned out he was going to a lame party.

If they can’t appreciate his costume, they don’t deserve him.

That’s Pretty On The Nose

Sometimes life has a cruel sense of humor, and sometime’s its sense of humor is a little too on the nose.

If I were the person who dropped this, I would get back into bed for the day.

The Croc Can Keep It

That crocodile has to check all their social media. The person who dropped that phone isn’t getting it back.

Maybe enjoy the moment next time and don’t worry so much about taking pictures.

Bye Bye Bananas

It looks like someone is going to make some banana bread soon.

Those bananas probably have about fifteen minutes before they get all nasty and brown and not edible in the least.

That Poor, Poor Kid

That poor kid is going to remember this day for the rest of their life.

Instead of having bad dreams about falling off a cliff, they’re going to have bad dreams about falling off this scooter.

Happy Birthday To Her

That’s one way to have a birthday that you’ll never forget.

Nothing says to eat these cupcakes with me like lighting your hair on fire with the candle flames. It’s a cute look.

Have Fun Cleaning That Up

When you’re already having a bad day, the last thing you need is a coffee disaster.

It’s just another way the universe is telling us that it’s OK to give up sometimes.
