We all have bad days or do stupid things now and then, but in the age of Instagram and Twitter, the entire world can laugh at your blunders for the rest of time. We’ve compiled an excellent list of the most egregious examples of poor critical thinking skills. Keep them in mind the next time you feel you’ve made the worst decision of your life. Yikes… Whoever did this is likely to have learned an important life lesson. How could you have made such a blunder? Before putting up any equipment, they should have double-checked their house. Guys, be careful! First, secure the TV to the wall, then let go. If you don’t want anything similar to happen to you, do it this way. If you don’t have time, hire a professional to complete the task for you.
Cats are not really known for being fond of bath time. Water is a cat’s worst enemy, as many cat owners have discovered, even in cartoons, especially when bathing their cats. So, why did this man think it was a good idea to share his bath with his cat when he was completely naked? You’re going to end up with bruises all over your body! We understand that you wanted to be there for them when they were afraid, but that was not the case in this instance.
Hold That Pose
Even though this woman appears to be lovely, her dinner will be missing a few key ingredients. Yikes! Isn’t it your opinion that the photographer should have warned her in advance?
When did it become more important to take pictures of food than it was to eat it? This isn’t the way to express gratitude for your meal. In any case, we hope she’s not too bothered by it.
I Can Finally Charge My Phone, Or Not…
Plastic wraps are by far the worst. By looking at this picture, we can only feel your pain. How do you plan to open this without causing it irreparable damage?
Someone appears to be on their way back to the store. You won’t be able to fix this with a clever hack, based on the appearance of this product. Simply purchase a new one.
It’s Going Down
We regret to inform you that we believe it is time for you to remove your belongings from that location, as that object will not move. But how did their car get there? We can’t even begin to imagine what they were going through.
It’s a car, not a boat, and it wasn’t meant to be used like this. It wasn’t going to happen any time soon. Then you might be able to hire an expert to assist you with that, huh?
Is He a Mailman or a Comedian?
The real question is whether you really want that package enough to go to the trouble of dismantling your mailbox to get it. We have nothing to lose, after all, so why not?
Is it possible that the mailman was attempting to be amusing? Is it possible that something like this happened by chance? Was he thinking about how the recipient would react before he gave it to them, or were they just trying to make ends meet?
Pumping Gas Zoolander Style
If you’ve never been taught how to fill your tank properly, please seek assistance. Because they don’t want anything to go wrong, we’re confident they’d be willing to do so.
Both the people in that area and you will be harmed. So, if you’re unsure what to do, don’t be afraid to seek assistance. People will treat you well if you treat them well.
Traveling by Van
To save money on transportation, some people will go to any length. If you plan to transport another vehicle in your car, however, you should consider strapping it down in case it falls.
We don’t always do this, but if we do, be cautious or you might end up in hot water. We’re hoping they don’t have to slam on the brakes quite so hard…
A Small Glitch
Good work on the construction of a deck, and do not forget that you will always have a look at unforeseen demands. You don’t know, perhaps you need one suddenly.
We can’t imagine the level of frustration this person must have felt when they realized what had occurred in this situation. It’s possible that doing it manually will be more efficient.
Mentos and Soda
Have you ever watched a video on YouTube? Just don’t try it, particularly on a plane. This one, on the other hand, has a scientific explanation. Mentos and soda just don’t go together, guys!
It’s possible that you’ll feel slight discomfort and even some embarrassing vomiting if you drink Coke and eat Mentos simultaneously. It’s as if there’s a train wreck just waiting to happen.
Uh-Oh!
This does not seem to be a good situation. They must have survived, right? We can see footsteps there as well, so they must have. In any case, how could they have missed that big puddle?
Let us hope for a good conclusion in which everyone in the vehicle is able to escape safely before the car sinks into the water. We also expect that they will be able to recover their car, or if they are unable to do so, that they will be provided with a new car. Take caution when you’re driving!
Touch the Sky
This is the first time a step stool has been used in man’s centuries-old quest to tame the skies. And we’re curious if she does it often. It seems that this is not her first time doing so.
But what exactly is she looking for that she needed a stool for? Maybe there’s an invisible thread hanging from the sky that only she can see? No one knows except her.
Construction 101
Place the doorknob away from the hinges! Now, how are you going to open and close the door? Perhaps we could have avoided this if we weren’t so preoccupied with our thoughts.
We hope this was a DIY project and that no one got paid for this disaster. And if it was, you’ll have to do it all over again! That stinks, but at least you won’t have to pay for anything.
A Christmas Miracle
Did you really think your neighbors wouldn’t notice if you threw an old tree in their yard? Maybe if it’s a small fake tree, but what if it’s this big? No way, José! It’s a big problem, you know?
We understand how difficult it is to drag it down the stairs, but come on… It’ll probably only take you 10 minutes or less to bring it down. Please be a responsible citizen.
Stuck in the Middle
Even though this was poor planning on her part, the floor turned out wonderful. She must now stay there till her surroundings are completely dry. You could’ve brought something to eat!
It looks like she’ll be finding out if waiting for paint to dry is actually as boring as people claim it is. Make sure you don’t fall asleep or you can end up with it on your body!
Safety First
For a reason, you must wear a hairnet before operating heavy machinery, or in this case, a beard net, before operating heavy machinery. This seems to be slightly painful, yet his smile relieves our worries.
We hope this guy wasn’t too attached to his facial hair. But, from the looks of it, he’s fine with it. Nonetheless, it is important to be careful at all times.
I Wonder What Would Happen If I Pressed That?
That, it turns out, is the button for the sunroof, or, we suppose, the snow roof. They’re probably not familiar with the buttons in their car since they don’t look at them very often, but they got intrigued about this one particular button, and then this happened.
The pair was taken aback and snapped a selfie of themselves as proof of their comical mistake. At the very least, you’ve got your hat on. We’re delighted they find it amusing rather than irritating.
Twist-On, Twist Off
Except when the bottle is a twist-off, knowing how to use a wine opener is an important life skill. Another advantage is that you don’t have to wait for someone to open it for you, and it opens swiftly.
Oh well, at the very least, we’re certain there was a happy ending, because how could there not be when there’s a bottle of wine involved? And doing so with your friends creates a lasting memory.
Double Cooked Rice
As long as the rice cooker is running, there is no need to put it on the stove to cook. Someone should have warned this poor woman before the first using the rice cooker.
Or she could have used her common sense and understood that if something requires electricity, it does not require any extra elements. Well, you learned a new thing the hard way.
Coffin Security Comes First
We’ll say it again: please secure your things. Nobody wants to come face to face with a deceased relative on the busy freeway. Furthermore, you should repair your car’s window.
It’s sort of okay if there’s no one in the coffin, but if there is, you’ll need a new worker to double-check that everything is set before moving ahead to the cemetery.
A Watched Pot
We’ve all heard the expression “a watched pot never boils,” but if you put a pot on the wrong burner, it’s almost certain that it will not boil. You could burn yourself if you put your arm in the wrong place!
This does, however, happen to everyone every now and then, particularly when you are quite hungry and discover that you have been heating air for the past 10 minutes. Yikes!
Please Read Carefully
Please read the instructions again before returning the item, people. If you did what this customer did, you might end up embarrassing yourself. Perhaps, if you believe something is wrong with the product you bought, you should first check with your family.
Aren’t customer service jobs the best? People come and hand you with their complaints and then you find out that there’s nothing wrong with the products. How will you handle this situation?
Those Don’t Look Right
Someone must have eaten an excessive amount of Jack Daniels prior to baking these babies in the oven. Obviously, they’re not going to roll themselves into the oven on their own.
Do you think you’d get sick if you ate it this way? Someone please warn him not to do it this way! You might be able to save a friend by alerting them to the fact that they need to be in the oven.
Real Life Looney Tunes
Bugs Bunny appears to be sticking his head out from behind this car, asking, “What’s up, Doc?” We’re curious as to how this piano ended up on this car. Where did it come from, after all?
Is it raining pianos outside? The owner of this car will never forget what happened to them; while it was tragic that their car was crushed by the piano, it was still fascinating that something that would only happen in cartoons happened in real life.
Tightly Wound
That snake is giving its owner a huge hug and kiss because it loves her so much. Even if they don’t feel affection in the same way that humans do, snakes make wonderful pets.
We are afraid of snakes, but don’t worry because some snakes are friendly and gentle, making you want to pet them. Doesn’t it make you want to go out and adopt a snake?
Free Bike!
Either this person didn’t think things through thoroughly, or they were desperate for a new bike. It doesn’t really matter because it will almost definitely be gone by the time they return.
They believe they are being clever, but they have forgotten that the poll is short and can be stolen by anyone who is bold enough to take it. Bad luck, bud.
Amateur Baker Alert
We don’t know who let this person inside an industrial kitchen, but they definitely had no idea what bread was all about. The first thing that comes to mind is that it rises.
And, as you can see in the picture, it may make a complete mess even if you have previously thrown them away. Please don’t leave them there overnight, or else the situation will worsen.
Should’ve Stayed in the Shade
If it had only been his back, he could have blamed someone else, but this poor man clearly caused this on himself. You should have stayed in the shade or bought a non-stick sunscreen.
We hope he didn’t take it too seriously and laughed it off. He could use this as a warning ad for a stick of sunscreen. Aside from that, get some other non-stick sunscreen!
He’s Sunk
Here’s what happens when you don’t read the road signs and are also a jerk. People can avoid all of this unavoidable karma if they learn to control their anger and ego.
Take a look at what happened to this guy. He couldn’t move since he’d slid to the bottom of the freshly paved road. He should’ve paid attention to what the signs were warning them about. Well, talk about karma…
In Pursuit
This state trooper seemed to be in a hurry. In his haste for a… Big Mac and fries, he ripped the gas nozzle out of place. What happened back there? Why didn’t anyone inform him of what had happened?
Will he go back and pay for the damages or run for it? In any case, we believe that he should return it as soon as possible to avoid anything potentially dangerous happening while driving.
You’re Not Doing That Right
Though creative, this is not the best technique to carry your basket, as it must be somewhat heavy and uncomfortable. Why did she carry it in such a way? Didn’t she notice the woman pushing a cart that looked exactly like hers?
That basket has wheels at the bottom, ma’am, and there’s a purpose for that…You’re supposed to push them around as you go about the store to buy your necessities.
A Tight Fit
We all know how difficult it is to find parking, but reading appears to be equally difficult. Whatever it was, it may possibly have been their eyesight, as the space is clearly designed for small cars only, and there’s no way other vehicles can move if there’s a big one there.
You don’t have a small car, and because of the way you parked, someone will most likely hit it. Come on, people! Pay attention to the signs and follow them! That shouldn’t be too difficult, right?
Shiver Me Timbers
It is indeed a disaster in the making. These people have obviously never carried wood in their car before; isn’t it obvious that if the pieces are that big and close to the window, something needs to be put between them and the glass, right?
Guys, just secure your wood next time! O, place them above your car to avoid damaging any parts of it, particularly the windows. But make sure they’re tightly strapped so they don’t fall.
Mom Brain
Electronics and parents just don’t mix. To them, headphones and chargers are all the same. Be kind to your mother and help her in charging her phone. This was a regular mistake that all parents had to face in the modern era.
Some teenagers may make the same mistake, especially if their headphones are tangled with the charger, but the ends of the charger and headphones are so different that it’s easy to tell which is which.
Not Feeling It
One puts a whole new spin on helicopter parenting, and this father isn’t happy about it. If you’re unfamiliar, it refers to a parent who pays great attention to the experiences and challenges of a child or children, particularly at educational institutions.
That mini copter will be out of commission for a long time if he gets a bald spot. That, too, would get him scolded. We wish you good luck, bud!
Where’s There’s Smoke
Someone had forgotten to teach this kid not to play with fire and also to be more sensitive to other cultures’ differences. You should never wear blackface, kid. Don’t do this at home.
Even as adults, you should not do this for the sake of laughing or a play in any event or school. Teach your children about cultural differences so that they can develop into adults who everyone can be proud of.
One Head Nodding
It’s not easy to work as a court reporter, and those who don’t follow orders make things even more difficult. To be fair, “taking down a nod or a shake” is quite difficult.
Thank you for your cooperation in following the directions so that no one is inconvenienced by your mistake. Why would you ever make a mistake when the directions are so clear and simple?
Not Toilet Wipes
This package seems to be potentially hazardous. This is a surface wipe, which means it should only be used on domestic surfaces; if you use it on yourself, you never know what will happen.
Surface wipes should be in bold red letters, and not toilet wipes should be stamped everywhere else. We should also check the labels before purchasing anything to avoid buying unnecessary items.
Ohhh, Icing
That seems like frosting, but it is actually melted plastic, and not only do you have to clean your oven, but your house will also smell like burnt plastic for the rest of your life!
Please remember to use an oven-safe plate the next time you want to bake anything for your family and friends. Otherwise, you’ll have to shell out money for a new oven.
Filling Your Tank, of Trash?
It’s difficult to think of a worse idea than this. It is not only irresponsible and messy; it is also a recipe for disaster. This guy and his truck are doomed with a single spark.
This guy must have believed he was brilliant to think of something like this, not knowing it was a foolish thing to do. And he could be in danger at any time.
Protecting Your Screen
This is actually rather adorable. This woman mistook the plastic covering the screen protector for the screen protector itself. It’s important to look after your phone, but it’s also important to see what you’re doing.
We’ve all been through something similar, haven’t we? But this was beyond my imaginations. She might have sensed something was wrong with her phone the entire time but couldn’t say anything. Hopefully, she now knows what that plastic is for.
Too Hot to Handle
Having to wait for a shirt to come out of the dryer can be annoying, but it seems that the easy fix of microwaving it instead has backfired in this case.
Oh well, he can go back to the Salt Lake Community College student store and get another one if that wasn’t his lucky shirt that is. Well, that’s one way to solve it.
Copy Screen?
This individual believed that copying and printing everything they wanted to print was as simple as putting their iPad to a printing machine. It’s an interesting idea, but it doesn’t seem to have worked out.
How could they have thought of doing such a thing? Next time, just use the print screen feature, okay? That will be a far more effective solution for you. Do your job properly, and not hastily.
One Use Closet
These closet doors, according to the contractor, are totally good. Hmm, I think there’s something missing. Do you see what I mean? That’s right, a doorknob! You’ve got a sharp eye, friend!
Let’s fill it up with clothes and then shut the door. What will you do now? They should have looked more closely to see what was missing. Now, she can’t close her closet doors.
Nailed it!
This woman either had a highly developed artistic style or she was on the run and trying to hide the getaway car. Is it hers, though? That is the question.
In any case, she should have sought expert help. That could last for a long time, but it will not look good. I mean, look at the gaps she left! The car now looked to be outdated.
Cement shoes
She is clearly having a rough day. Look at her stance; she seems to have given up a few hours ago. What happened to her to make her such a miserable figure?
We hope she wasn’t too fond of the shoes she was wearing. She might not want to remove it if she gets attached! No pun intended. That’s all on her, though.
Lash Attack
Take a look at this picture and pay attention to the warning. If you don’t pay attention when curling your lashes, you’ll end up with a bald eye. Curling your lashes on a daily basis is not a good idea.
Eyelashes are incredibly delicate, according to research, so using the wrong method or having dried mascara stick to your curler might harm your lashes and possibly cause them to fall out.
Pot Calling the Kettle
Hmm, so how did you get this shot, buddy? Did you use your camera on your phone, huh? What? Or did you see it and capture it with your eyes? Just kidding!
By the second, technology is making us less sociable. Nonetheless, many are sociable on social media, which is why we are constantly on our phones. The new norm had us all on our phones since we can’t talk to anyone face to face.
The Big Prize
This girl was fed up with claw machines stealing her money and giving her nothing in return, so she resolved to win her prize at all costs. Unfortunately, she is now trapped inside, and getting her out will take more than a quarter.
Have you ever been conned by a claw machine like this girl? Would you do what she did or just walk away if you were in her shoes? To do what she did, you have to have a lot of guts. You must also be the same size as she is.
Doing Her Hair
Friends of this woman may have to wait a bit. Her hair just won’t curl for some reason. It’s got to be the humidity. Is that right? Take a close look. What do you notice?
That’s right, the cord isn’t plugged! How frustrating must that be? If only she had checked first to see if the hair curler was producing heat or steam. Well, time to do it again!
Dumb and Dangerous
It’s not known how this happened. The car is snow-free except for the windshield. What on earth was this person thinking? Was he dared by his friend or just too lazy to remove it?
Was he hoping the sun would melt it? Whatever it was, many people had ideas about why he did it, and one of them might be the answer, but we don’t know which one.
Where’s the Lid?
Another person thought that warning signs at gas stations are only for weaker men. Don’t worry, those bags will absolutely keep everything protected. Let’s hope he’s still alive after this.
We’ve said it before, but we’ll say it again: follow the guidelines and warning signs. Also, why did these gas stations allow this to happen in the first place? How many more people would put their lives in danger by refilling gas in personal containers?
The Snowmobile
The owner of this convertible either forgot to read the weather report or was caught off guard by this snowstorm. Yikes! That’s going to be a difficult one to clear out! Hopefully, the snow hasn’t damaged them.
Whether you believe it or not… When the car was designed, the manufacturers kept this in mind. The convertible top CAN handle the snow. Just don’t let it pile up…like this one.
Let Me Out
This delivery worker had to be confident that if he knocked on the door, someone would answer; otherwise, this makes no sense. Perhaps he was aware that someone was at home and not answering the phone and decided to make them pay.
In which case, he is one petty delivery guy, to put it mildly. However, it’s possible that he was rushing and simply dropped it there because he assumed no one was home at the time.
Safe and Secure
Who thought it was a brilliant idea? Yes, it was tightly secured, but what happened here? It’s unclear which vehicle will crash first, but we’re very sure they’ll both collide.
What happened to bring them to this point? Where are they going? Whatever the case may be, we can only hope that the driver had no serious problems on the road and arrived home safely.
Above the Law
This guy has to be in a hurry more than the rest of us. That’s probably why he thought he could use this closed-off lane. He’s not going anywhere for a while, at least.
Just like the earlier post, this one didn’t look at the signs when he decided to use this closed-off lane for a shortcut. Now, he learned not to paying attention to his surroundings the hard way.
Extreme Parking
Apparently, the first person felt this was a clever parking space, and the rest of the people thought so as well. Everything was going smoothly until the sun came out.
That this would happen overnight was not something they were expecting. It had to have been the biggest surprise of their lives.Next time they will know to inspect first before parking their car somewhere.
A for Effort
It is always good for women to be active in the maintenance of their cars. That, however, is not the way to proceed. What is she doing with a fire extinguisher?
Is there a fire under her car? Is she trying to pump air in her tire? What? Where did she get it? Perhaps she should have asked for someone else’s help.
A Bone to Pick
We understand your sentiment, however, we strongly encourage you to remove it from your car before someone misinterprets it. Certainly not what they intended to say! No one here wants to do that.
We enjoy the play on words, but we’d start scratching that sticker off as soon as possible! Next time, invest in a more acceptable one. One that does not contain a strange innuendo, for example.
An Explosion of Suds
We hope this was part of some strange cleaning routine or a crazy and wet party. Otherwise, this would be a huge letdown. We’d want to go there for a foam party, but it appears that no one is home, or are they just swimming in the foam?
This would be difficult to clean in any situation! Cleaning the entire house requires a large number of people or a significant amount of energy. You’ve had a string of poor luck.
A Bigger Trunk
Even though Ikea products are disassembled, it is still unclear how they planned to get that box into the trunk. Perhaps they should have it delivered to you. They won’t be able to get that box in there.
Seriously, how on earth did you think that box would fit?! You didn’t realize you weren’t driving a pickup truck, did you? Just hire movers that would easily move your stuff at home!
A Whole Lot of Bounce
This seems to be a smart plan, but they should definitely take a step back just in case. If they are too close, they may be wounded, but if there is no one else around, it may break apart. So, how would you go about doing it?
There are a plethora of ways for things to go horribly wrong. For example, someone could slip and injure themselves, or the object could fall out of their hands and break. Which do you believe is the most probable?
Never Lose Your Keys Again
This is a terrific way to keep track of your keys; it’s just a shame you’ll never be able to unlock this lock again. But how did you come up with this idea? What makes you believe it’s a good one?
Everyone loses their keys but is nowhere to find them. But we have an answer that you all already know. The next time you lose your keys, just use your regular old key finder. This is actually more complex than the other one.
A Whole New World
Clearly, this mother has never seen a single episode of the HBO series Game of Thrones. We, on the other hand, think the effort is pretty endearing. It still looks cool though, Mom!
If you don’t know, the continent of Westeros is located in the extreme west of the known world. A strait of water known as the Narrow Sea separates it from the continent of Essos. In the Game of Thrones series, the majority of the action takes place in Westeros.
Cookies to Die For
Do you eat these cookies at wakes and funerals, or do you eat them and then die? We’ll pass in either case, thanks. Kidding aside, these would be fantastic for Halloween!
To be honest, the person who created this could have been a fan of horror stories or even Halloween! We can’t wait to get our hands on more of their cookies!
Square Peg, Round Hole
Although we admire this man’s tenacity, that will never do. Just pay someone to deliver it to your home! There’s no point in bothering yourself since you can end up damaging your recently purchased furniture.
Someone please give him the U-Haul contact info. You won’t have any trouble renting a pick-up truck nowadays. They might just follow you or your GPS to see where the furniture would be delivered.
The Cereal Conundrum
Kenny may have just had an insight that will change the course of history. Who wouldn’t want a bar that, when it comes into contact with milk, disintegrates into cereal? Monsters, that’s who.
And his confusion just makes it 10x more hilarious. His friend didn’t pass the vibe, though. Nevertheless, we would like to try his idea in the near future. Good luck to us!
Hiding in Plain Sight
Because the corkscrew is immediately next to the knife they were wielding, it must have happened after they had consumed some other form of alcohol. Have these ladies never seen an army knife before?!
The Swiss Army knife comes in a variety of models with various tool combinations, one of which is a wine opener! They must have been having too much fun at the party to notice the corkscrew.
A Pool of Blood?
It’s always a good idea to draw attention to worthwhile causes, and Breast Cancer Awareness is one of the most noteworthy, but it appears that they didn’t quite get the pink tint they were hoping for…
We wouldn’t want to be the ones in charge of the building’s maintenance. For those who are afraid of blood, but also because there is an excessive amount of water to drain, it would be an absolute nightmare.
Artisanal Jeans
Doodling can help you think, but you should have thought about it before doing it with the cap off. Try it on the opposite half of your jeans; it may look like a design.
I guess you’ll be labeled as the artistic kind from now on. It probably won’t make a difference, but people will start to irritate you the more they request a drawing of themselves.
Nice View
Here’s another painter with a lack of foresight. So, what’s next? You should have considered your options before going up to the roof to paint. Hopefully, he just finished his meal because he could be there for a long time.
I’m guessing he’ll just hang out and enjoy the scenery. Or he could talk to the person who posted the picture and laugh at himself. Man, good luck with your work!
Making Your Territory
This guy’s next-door neighbor used duct tape to seal a crack in their garbage can lid, but they mistook him for someone who wanted to mark the bin with their apartment number. They decided to keep the pattern going, which isn’t a bad thing.
Well, now they have a separate trash can! What else is there to offer? They may also become friends from that point forward. We wish them a nice time as bin buddies!
Whack-A-Pole
This lady decided to engage in a game of whack-a-pole. I’m not sure who won. That pole came out of nowhere! And given the way she’s standing, she must have faced a problem!
She’s dialing someone on her phone, which means it’s either her family or 911. These spectators could have saved her from her misery, but they chose not to. And just stand there staring at her until help arrives.
First National Bank of Peppa
Peppa Pig must be her favorite character, or she must be raising a toddler who believes Peppa Pig should be on the five-pound note in order for her to have belonged there.
This is without a doubt one of the cutest fails on this list. But where does she put George, and Mama Pig, as well as Papa Pig? We wonder: In what dollar bill did they found the other member’s family.
