People Who Got Thrown Life’s Curveballs, Swung, And Missed Terribly

There's no single book or novel out there that can teach you how to successfully maneuver your way through life. Everyone has different obstacles that they need to hurdle in order to reach their full potential.

While most of us are just struggling to walk out our front door every morning without getting splashed by a bus, some other people seem to have their stuff together. Thankfully, this article isn't going to focus on those people. Instead, it's going to take a look at the ones just like you and me who get thrown life's curveballs and terribly miss the mark. On the bright side, we're more entertaining anyway.

Another Mom Gets Victimized By The Internet

There's an ongoing battle that most people overlooked and it doesn't seem to have an end. This battle is the one between moms and technology, and in this case, the internet.

They're not 100% sure how to maneuver their way through it, but in typical mom fashion, they still power on without asking questions.

It's not easy to have to rely on glasses in order to see. It's easier than most people would believe to lose your glasses in a bread pan and bake them unknowingly.

All you need to do is look at Velma from Scooby Doo when she would lose her glasses to figure out how hard it is to retrieve them again.

So this husband is about to lose his life within four minutes of this picture being taken.

Losing your wedding ring is basically a cardinal sin, but losing it in a crappy cereal box is on an entirely different level. This man is not alive right now. Coming up, an Uber driver who is literally willing to do anything for a five-star rating, and it's questionable at best.

I don't know about you, but this sandwich doesn't look all that bad. We may have accidentally found ourselves the next best breakfast sandwich.

A hard-boiled egg inside of a bagel with cream cheese? That doesn't sound half as bad as it looks. I'm sure it tastes just wonderful.

Look, we all want to believe that fish are friends and not food, but this picture tells us otherwise.

Fish are out to kill all of our puppies with no regret or remorse. They're taking advantage of the most vulnerable land dwellers we have. Puppies will greet every living being with the utmost respect, and it's biting them in the behind in this picture.

Uh, Dinesh, Are You Okay Man?

I don't know what Dinesh is doing, but it doesn't look like it's very safe. With that being said, Uber drivers will do anything for five stars, so if their customers told them to drive out into the middle of the ocean, they'd do it.

Dinesh must be the Uber that has those disco balls in the back seat with the plethora of candies all around. This is the five-star king. Just ahead, a mom goes full desperation mode to get the attention of her husband, and it's hilarious.

Payback Is A B****

This dog is merely getting payback for all of the times that you didn't play catch with him in the backyard.

This is for all of those fake throws and deceptive ball tosses that you always do that make him look like a complete fool. This was a long time coming.

It's pretty common to see people flexing their money on social media. It's basically common practice to show off anything of value that you have to your peers.

This girl committed an awful mistake by being ignorant and not covering all of her bases. We see that Volkswagen key sweetie.

Sometimes it takes drastic measures to get the attention of your husband. If he's not giving you attention, you might just have to pretend to light the house on fire.

It's like if your crush in high school wasn't noticing you enough in the hallway, getting their face tattooed on your stomach usually did the trick. Coming up, a picture that perfectly reflects THAT friend. You'll feel really sorry for him.

We all have our own party tricks that we like to pull out on special occasions. They range from card tricks to flipping glasses and everything in between.

This guy's party trick certainly doesn't make him very popular at parties. He likes to photobomb group pictures by pouring drinks on everyone. The Grinch of parties.

Who Put That Pole There?

We all have that one clumsy friend who literally can't stop getting hurt no matter where they go. They're the friend who struggles to put one foot in front of the other and trips on curbs constantly.

Don't even get me started on when they take their pedal bike out for a little spin. This picture encapsulates it perfectly.

There've obviously been a few curveballs throw this guys way that he wasn't even able to adapt to. This is a tragic scene. Just ahead, find out what a centapizza is and why I'll still eat it despite how gross it is.

As weird as this picture is, we have to give this guy a few props for his attempt at creating his own little vacation.

This is the result of being too poor to go on spring break with your friends, so you create your own little spring break getaway in your backyard. It's a bit pathetic but to each their own.

Let's brainstorm how we can get rid of mustard forever. I don't understand how mass amounts of the population can taste mustard and think it's good.

It tastes like the bottom of someone's sweaty feet mixed with some yellow food coloring and garbage disposal. Let's do a mass throw out of all mustard flavors by 2020.

This isn't even repulsive. There's nothing that can happen to a slice of pizza for me to be disgusted by it.

I will pick up a half-eaten slice on the sidewalk covered in ants and not think twice about it. Pizza never goes bad, and we need to come to terms with that. Coming up, a mom leaves her kid with an Uber driver and hilarity ensues.

It should be a law that people aren't allowed to converse with each other until both of the parties have had their morning coffee.

Nothing ruins a day faster than spilling your coffee OR finding out the hard way that your mug has no bottom. I'm going back to bed if I see this.

This is the design fail of design fails. Who sat up in a boardroom and thought, "you know what this public washroom needs? A see-through stall."

There's nothing that spices up your washroom trip quite like being able to see some random stranger's side profile in all the wrong places.

Some people are so trusting of random strangers that it's actually baffling. Can you imagine leaving your kid in a car alone with someone you met six seconds before?

ADVERTISEMENT

The best part? Uber drivers are so desperate for five-star ratings (like I mentioned previously) that there's no way they'd take off with this kid. The jail sentence would be the easiest part to swallow — the one-star rating would be the hardest.

It's the only time during the day that you can truly be yourself without any judgment. It's also the only time that you're actually alone. Some of the best thoughts and plans are made on the toilet.
