Whether it’s pure irony, plain bad luck, a disaster waiting to happen, or a fail so bad you just have to laugh, we’ve all had moments when it felt like the universe just wasn’t on our side. Sometimes life just has a way of sticking it to you.
Check out these 50 photos of situations you should be glad you’re not a part of (and maybe learn some lessons along the way).
While these might all make for a bad day, no doubt someone got a laugh out of them; they certainly had enough of a sense of humor to get a photo.
1. The stress mess
There’s nothing like getting ready for some skin self care…until it goes crashing to the floor. We’re just hoping no one tried to salvage any bits of lotion from the broken glass – that’s just a recipe for more disaster.
That is just so cruel. It’s one thing to see that snack slow down and start to look like it might get stuck in the machine, but then when you see the label you know it’s not meant to be. At least it’s funny for a second.
Well, we can certainly see why this dog owner needed a solution for excessive chewing. On the bright side, maybe it worked and the dog is now REALLY discouraged from bad behavior.
This reader was just trying to read a story about walls and whether or not they change the way we think. Unfortunately, the New Yorker’s paywall prevented that. Walls definitely change the way we read!
It’s all about the journey, not the destination, right? It certainly is in this case after a two-hour journey foiled by fog. At least she can say that she’s been there.
There’s not much you can do other than shake your head and snap a pic when you’re about to start a 7-hour plane ride and go to plug in your headphones only to find that the last pair had snapped off perfectly in the outlet. There’s no solving that problem, so we hope they’re at least a heavy sleeper.
Do you stand back from the paint shaker at the hardware store? This is probably why. We hope she got to go home early to start washing that out of her hair.
The weather is never 100% accurate, and it looks like this day saw some unexpected rain. The look on the dog’s face after his surprise bath is pretty priceless though.
We still wouldn’t want to be this guy trying to get out of the parking lot, but we definitely have some questions about his parking abilities. Chances are his skills will improve after this stunt.
Even books with the title Invincible are subject to damage. On the bright side, it looks like it’s been read plenty of times – better a well-read book than a pristine one.
Don’t you hate when the weather forces you to wear a jacket that ruins your whole look? This pic takes it to a whole new level. Guess he’ll have to be chilly or button up – there’s really no in-between choice here.
We’re guessing that previous birthdays weren’t worth looking back on either unless Gary has made a lot of enemies in the last year. Aren’t algorithms smart enough not to bring up this message if no one is helping you celebrate?
This snafu looks like it’ll take more than one person to clean up. Hopefully the photographer lent a helping hand to this unlucky driver who may have hit the breaks a bit too hard (and forgot to secure the door?).
This is why it’s best to call in a professional. We’re not sure how one manages to install a sink with the faucet on the wrong side, but we hope they budgeted a bit more time for the project.
It was a bad day to hit the sunroof button instead of the rear defrost. But if you’re snapping a pic, chances are you have some humor left in you over the situation.
There seem to be a lot of scooter accidents lately. But this one takes the cake since it threw its rider into freshly laid cement. That’s got to be hard to clean off.

39. Kite tent
And this is why you have to stake your tent into the ground properly. What goes up must come down – we just hope it wasn’t onto that nearby tree.
If you’ve ever gotten printer toner on your skin or clothing you are probably shuddering at this photo. We really hope no one was around when this happened, but the nearby shoe prints would indicate that someone had a very bad day at work.
You might think anyone who holds out an ice cream cone in order to take a photo is extending an invitation to the local wildlife to take a bite. That’s certainly the case here and we’re pretty impressed that this former ice cream cone owner managed to hold onto the camera to snap another shot!
We’re not sure what’s worse, putting the effort into making cupcakes that end up on the floor, destroying the birthday girl’s treat, or having to clean up flaming cupcake while everyone looks on disappointely. At least there’s a photo to look back on for a good laugh.
Anyone who wears heels knows you have to be careful around those grates. But sometimes they’re hard to spot until you’re accidentally wearing one. And one you’ve pierced it, it’s not easy to get off without ruining your shoe.
We know fire and electronics don’t mix, but who could have seen this coming? That’s one expensive mistake. We hope they saved their work before it went up in flames.
Most people still put a hand on top of the blender while making smoothies even if the lid fits tight enough because they’re trying to avoid exactly this scenario. Certainly not a great way to start off your day.
