There’s no such thing as perfect. Despite that, we all work hard to be as close to perfection as possible. Whether it’s related to a project at home or at work, we do our best to make the end result as satisfying and pleasing as possible.
Unfortunately, not all people think the same way. There are people who don’t care about symmetry, patterns, alignment, and order. They just do things for the sake of doing them.
To show you what we mean, here’s a collection of 75 super cringe-worthy photos that will drive you nuts.
1. That white tile
Why use a white tile? A black one would have made it a little less uncomfortable to look at.
2. The one different urinal
Well, the urinal isn’t the only thing that’s infuriating about that bathroom. Even the tiles can make you feel uneasy. One has a different color and another breaks the pattern.
3. The misplaced black tile
Someone didn’t think twice before putting that odd piece of black tile there. Good thing it didn’t ruin the succeeding patterns.
4. The weird numbering system
Apart from the numbers not being in order, the fact that there are two number 2 buttons is quite baffling. Does the higher 2 button work differently than the lower 2 button? More importantly, do they take you to the same floor? Your guess is as good as mine.
5. That one can
There are a couple of things you can do to solve this problem. First, you can heat the plastic with a hairdryer and gently bend it out. The other option is to just drink the extra can which, by the way, is easier and more practical.
6. That seat
Using a new but different fabric for the seat is probably better than leaving the old stained and dirty fabric on. However, they could have picked something closer to the original one. This is quite painful to look at.
7. That egg tray
It’s quite normal to get a free egg tray when you buy a new fridge. This one, however, came with a tray that only fits 9 eggs. Considering that, it’s probably better to keep them in the carton they came in.
8. That red fork
Whoever packed this must love red. Otherwise, why would there be two red forks in this pack?
9. That pattern
Even if those tiles are correctly done, they’d still make you feel drunk. They might even trigger a really bad case of vertigo.
10. That fountain
This design might be intentional but it still feels wrongs. Why not make the spout in the same size and at the same height?
11. That error
It must have been hard for this homeowner to see this error every time he had to go to the toilet. However, since it’s a minor issue, he should have corrected it a long time ago and saved himself from getting stressed out.
12. This failed project
Believe it or not, this wasn’t a DIY project. The homeowner paid people to get it done and she still gave them the money even if the job was awful.
13. That light switch
Even if the area was measured, the person who installed the light switch still managed to mess it up. And even if the error was so obvious, he just left it like that.
14. That napkin
There must be something special about the person who’s supposed to sit there. The way that napkin was oddly placed, it has to mean something. Right?
15. That card
The 8 on this card is upside down even if it’s held upright. This is surely distracting when you’re playing a game.
16. That trail
You can find this section of Freedom Trail somewhere in Boston. With this kind of design, it’s something you and I won’t be happy to see.
17. Those windows
This looks like a geometrical nightmare. They could have just divided the windows in half or made the lines merge cleanly with the other window lines so that it doesn’t just pop out of nowhere.
18. This counter
There are so many wrong things in this picture. First, why is the wall counter not aligned with the actual counter? The outlet isn’t centered on both counters, too. And why is the outlet carved into the trim?
19. This teacher
This teacher probably likes messing with his students’ minds. Otherwise, why would he choose to use the wrong colors for the text?
20. This piece of art
It might have been done on purpose, but the way the piece isn’t centered is quite unsettling. It would definitely look a whole lot better if it was placed in the middle.
21. This binder ring
Binder rings, like this one, aren’t just uncomfortable to look at. They can also cause pain, particularly if you are left-handed and you need to write something in your notebook.
22. That pill
This person’s co-worker must be experiencing a serious headache for him to miss that last pill on the left. Nonetheless, it’s still rude.
23. These tattoos
If it was just one tattoo, it could have been a mistake. Since there are two misaligned tattoos, it’s safe to assume that this guy got them so he can mess with all of us.
24. This sandwich
This person asked to have his sandwich cut in three parts. It looks like whoever did this accidentally cut the sandwich in half and didn’t want to make a new one for the customer.
25. That one window
It’s hard to figure out the reason behind this failed design. They could have chosen something less conspicuous and less irritating to look at.
26. This evelator panel
Just one look at this elevator panel and you’ll end up with an instant headache. Apart from the missing buttons, the way the numbers were arranged and designed is just a mess.
27. This product
Someone in the advertising department forgot to count the number of holes in the waffles before placing them on that iron. Only people who don’t pay much attention to the products they are buying would miss that.
28. The odd pencil
This person didn’t know that he was in for a surprise when he opened his set of sketch pencils. Good thing his heart was still fine even after opening it.
29. This condiment station
This station is teaching us a very valuable lesson: It’s not enough that you read labels. You must also check the actual pump to see if it’s dispensing the condiment you need.
30. This Jenga
It appears to me that the person who put away this Jenga had lost the game. Well, it’s either that or she’s just too lazy and impolite to put those pieces like that.
31. This drawer
The person who owns this drawer should organize it ASAP not just to make it look pretty but for his safety. Anyone who reaches into that drawer is bound to cut a finger or two.
32. That window and curtain
Angled windows are hard to decorate, but it’s not an excuse to create something like this. It’s just wrong.
33. That door
This one is probably built on practicality. The misplaced ramp allows you to open the door without getting on its way. The way the light is positioned, however, is a bit difficult to explain.
34. This pizza
This is probably the most uncomfortable photos you’ll see on this list. It could also be one of the worst looking pizzas you’ll ever see.
35. This question
There were boxes next to the words yes and no. Despite that, they still chose to encircle their answer. If this was a test, they’d clearly fail.
36. This sign
It appears like someone dropped this sign and just left it on the floor. Oh, what a terror to look at!
37. That poor box of pizza
Unless that box is empty, I’m pretty sure that person won’t have a decent pizza when he gets home. With all the toppings pushed to one side and the actual pizza deformed, it won’t look appetizing at all.
38. Those doors
If you have to see that door each time you go to work, it must be hard to start your day right. Those doors on the right are uncomfortable to look at, too.
39. This bathroom floor
This is the bathroom floor of a model house. For people who are looking for a property to buy, this might be a red flag.
40. These screen protectors
Using three screen protectors don’t make them more effective, particularly if they don’t fit properly. They just leave unprotected spaces that make the device more vulnerable.
41. Those wrenches
Although helpful, that guide doesn’t always work. Most people end up not using them at all.
42. That patch on the road
Although that patch is just temporary, it’s still uncomfortable to look at. The granite setts are over 150 years old.
43. This Sub
This sandwich was supposed to be cut it half. Unfortunately, whoever cut it didn’t know the difference between “cut in half” and “cut in two”.
44. That “ñ”
It was a good thing that they know how to type the letter “ñ”. The bad thing is that they don’t know when to use it.
45. That TV
There could have been a much better spot to put that TV on. Placing it on a closet with an angled roof doesn’t make the viewing angle any better.
46. Those red ticks and green crosses
Generally speaking, red points to negative and green points to positive. Using red for the ticks and green for the crosses will confuse a lot of people.
47. The way this pizza was cut
Anyone who loves pizza will surely find this offensive. It’s quite impossible to cut a pizza like this unless you have absolutely no clue how it should be done or you’re messing up with the people who ordered it.
48. This graph
This person chose to be independent and not rely on the actual graph on his paper. Well, to each his own, right?
49. Those door handles
The fact that they used a smaller handle to replace the bigger one can give you a serious mental itch. They could have put a lot more effort into finding the right size, particularly since they are running a business.
50. That sunflower
Normally, sunflowers grow towards the direction od the sun. However, for some reason, this sunflower refuses to face East.
51. This puzzle
This puzzle required several hours to complete and it looks like it’s not worth it. That missing piece is ruining everything.
52. This cheesecake
This is one of those things that rip families apart. If you truly value your loved ones, never cut a cheesecake like this.
53. These DVDs
It looks like Dr. House isn’t the only person who likes to mess up with people’s minds. It seems that the designer of his DVDs has the same trait.
54. These Monopoly deed cards
The game of Monopoly requires intense concentration. With these deed cards cut the wrong way, I’m pretty sure any player would have a hard time focusing.
55. This bathroom
This is painful to look at. If you were drunk, you’d probably see everything straight.
56. This ceiling
This is probably what happens when two carpenters don’t agree. As much as possible, keep builders on the same page.
57. These plates
The person who took this photo learned something that day: It’s never to allow your guests to empty your dishwasher and put your dishes away.
58. This volume control
If you’ve never noticed the circle in Netflix’s volume control, this photo will be a shock. You’ll never see it the same way again.
59. This slice of pizza
When this person asked if she can have the pizza cut in two, she didn’t give a clear instruction about how she wanted it done. Even though the pizza slice wasn’t cut the common way, it’s still divided into two. She really can’t get mad about that.
60. That round light
There must be something special about that light. It’s pushed out of the line like it was volunteering for something.
61. That pink bead
This photo just proves that no matter how beautiful a color is, it can still ruin a nicely done project. The culprit behind this one is a 3-year-old child.
62. These emergency buttons
Remember the ticks and crosses earlier? Well, it looks like the person who made these control buttons follow the same principles in life.
63. This church
It seems that symmetry isn’t that important before. The way the doors and windows don’t align suggests that.
64. This truck
If this is the truck following you, I bet you’ll easily lose focus on driving. It looks tired and angry.
65. This gift wrapper
If this was an actual scrabble game, I bet you’ll have a hard time winning. It’s designed only for people who know “tistmascarol” and “santacntclaus”.
66. The back of this shirt
This shirt looks more like a glitch. It’s like something went wrong and the game and design got stuck.
67. Those uneven tables
Those tables are actually adjustable but it seems that nobody cared to adjust them to the same level. Since the process requires someone getting down on all fours, I think I’d pass, too.
68. This bridge
At first, everything looked fine. In fact, the person who took this photo has been walking on this bridge for years already. After seeing that misplaced nail, however, it’s safe to say that he’ll never feel the same away about this bridge ever again.
69. The last season
This show involved a character with OCD. Ironically, this is how they designed the box cover for the last season of the show.
70. These boxes
It’s always disappointing when your contractors don’t pay that much attention to their projects. It’s even more disappointing to realize that the people you hired to work on your home don’t have a clear sense of alignment or space.
71. This straw
This person has a very odd way of using a bendy straw and it’s not impressive. Bendy straws are designed for the specific reason she’s holding the straw like that.
72. That headpone
This one’s easy to miss. However, if you have the tendency to scrutinize every detail, I bet you won’t be able to relax during the entire trip.
73. That logo
Technically, there’s nothing wrong with that logo because it still has that 7 stars. The lack of symmetry is what’s bothering.
74. That slice of pie
Even if it’s a piece of pie or a piece of cake, I’m pretty sure it won’t fit. It’s just too big for the circle.
75. That sentence
“Your” and “You’re” are words a lot of people mess up most of the time. And each time, we end up feeling uncomfortable.
