Pics We Can’t Help But Laugh At

Published on 12/29/2021

Do you have a dark sense of humor? Can you not help but laugh at the misfortune of others? Then this article might just be for you. Sometimes we can’t help but laugh at certain things. Someone dropping something might be unfortunate, but it just tickles us in a way that a harmless joke just can’t. Take a person being sprayed with toner and suffering embarrassment, no one is really physically harmed? Who knows, even the person who experiences this misfortune might find it funny! Well, one day. Keep scrolling through and discover some seriously unfortunate (and sticky) scenarios that people found themselves in.

Exploding Ink Cartridge

Sometimes simple administrative tasks can hilariously (and unfortunately) completely fail. This evidently happened here, where an ink cartridge exploded at the exact moment a woman tried to switch it out for a new one. You can see where she was standing when the moment happened…

Swings Aren’t For Adults

This one isn’t so dubious. I mean, how strong can that wood be? It’s a child’s swing set! Clearly it is meant for just that, children. You can see that the seat isn’t even that large. This picture is rather self-explanatory.

Fooling No-one

This cat is fooling nobody! We see his game, but we know he’s more of a bird eater than bird feeder! Bill, the jig is up. You simply aren’t as stealthy as you think you are. Perhaps go back to the cat bowl, maybe there’s something there to eat instead.

A Smelly Car

How bad can a car be that someone needs that many air fresheners? We think at that point it might be worth taking it for an industrial clean. It just seems rather excessive. Smelling devices can only cover up a stench for so long, it doesn’t actually solve the problem at hand. Get your car cleaned buddy!

Singed Whiskers

The cat theme continues. They just do silly things and we can’t help but giggle! We love our furry feline friends, but here you can see that this particular one got a bit too close to the fireplace. His whiskers look a tad problematic, he might have some balance issues for the foreseeable imminent future.

Rest In Peace, Grandpa

Many questions arise from this question. Firstly, the answer section is limited; what if Grandpa isn’t 50, 5 or 500? Also whose Grandpa is actually 500! 50 would be the most rational answer, but what if Grandpa isn’t 50? This kid took initiative and didn’t want to lie about their grandfather’s age, especially since they are dead. At least the teacher seemed to show sympathy…

No Flyers Allowed

This bulletin board has a sign that clearly states that they do not want or accept flyers. There is no mention of anything about fliers, though. That fly has definitely seen better days.

Dark, But True

This isn’t exactly false advertising. I mean, you should hope that a graveyard would have quiet inhabitants, otherwise there would be cause for concern and we might very well have a World War Z situation on our hands. Zombies? No thanks. Quiet motionless gravestones? Preferable. Perhaps potential buyers may want a house with a different kind of view, though.

Late, Poor and A Very Bad Day Indeed

What is worse than missing an essay deadline? Missing an essay deadline and damaging your laptop charger. Not only will you face the repercussions of a late submission, but you might not even be able to finish it! Once your laptop dies, that is. Furthermore, you need to go and buy a new charger! How aggravating.

The Wine Cow?

Traditionally (and historically), cows have only produced milk. There were once rumors that brown cows began producing chocolate milk, but this was quickly quashed and rendered fake news. Now it appears there are cows that produce wine? Well, that’s what this dairy section seems to say! Unless someone simply put them in the wrong section? We’d actually prefer for the wine cow to be the explanation here…

Not Lying, But Not Telling The Whole Truth

This sign isn’t exactly lying, but it isn’t painting the whole picture. Technically, fresh eggs have no bones, and they certainly have the potential to go on and be chickens, but this one might be joking a little. 35 cents for boneless chicken seems like a good deal, until you see the “boneless chicken”.

Ominous Message

Positive messages are intended to be written on fortune cookies. They aren’t supposed to bring up the negative aspects of human nature. I’m starting to wonder if this fortune cookie factory worker has any dark secrets.

Bad Target Practice

Maybe this person came to a Target parking lot expecting to simply go shopping and buy some groceries. Someone else must have mistaken Target for a different kind of establishment. Target might have a target in the logo, but it certainly isn’t a place for archery! Either someone got their places mixed up, or this driver must have wronged someone.

Don’t Interrupt The Staff Meeting

Many people these days are self-employed. Often a business might consist of a sole individual: CEO, vice-president and every other role imaginable. After all, they do everything! Sometimes sitting alone can be boring, and talking to yourself isn’t actually that weird. We think this person is trying to tell people to leave them alone! Staff meetings involving all the staff are still important, even if you’re the only one…

RIP Chocolate Penguin

This guy showed his coworker how to create chocolate penguins, but his coworker decided he’d rather make chocolate penguins that were ripped in two. That immediately got out of hand. This looks like the beginning of an animated horror film!

Extra Legroom

Often when we travel on budget airlines, there is little-to-no leg space. Sometimes if you’re lucky, you can snag a seat with extra legroom by the emergency exits. This person obviously had that idea but didn’t quite anticipate his neighbor sitting like this! Survival of the fittest, we guess.

Don’t Eat Me!

If food could talk, this one would be yelling! He visually looks disgusted with what the human is about to do. “You’re about to eat me? Ew. How Dare you”. We can already feel the judgement! He is a mixture of concerned, disgusted and downright unimpressed. Oh dear.

Moody Kitty

This cat was sleeping peacefully on their owner’s lap, until they were forcibly removed on account of them needing to be elsewhere. The kitty was not too happy though. He was cozy and his owner interrupted his pleasant nap. As such, he has shunned the rest of the household and refuses to look at any of them. Maybe in a few hours when it’s snack time, all will be forgiven.

That’s Not Your Milk

You should never take food or drink that isn’t yours. Not only is it simply not yours, but you also don’t know where it came from. We think the taker of this milk might have learnt an important life lesson. We wonder if the coffee they had was tasty, using this ‘luxury milk’.

Don’t Wear A Brown Dress In The Pool

People do all sorts of things in the name of art. Whether that be painting yourself, building something or jumping into a pool with formal clothing. This person jumped into the pool and allowed the dress to look all mystical by having it float in the water. The only issue is that since the dress was brown, the end result kind of resembles something else…

Misplaced Cookie

Either this is simply a joke, or a guy’s proposal has just gone down the toilet. We can imagine the scene with a guy handing Cynthia a fortune cookie, ready to pull out a ring and watch her facial expression as she reads the proposal, only for the message to say something like “You Will Move Jobs This Year”. Quite the anti-climax.

A Sad Puppy

This woman was cleaning up her son’s room and vacuum sealing some of his stuffed animals in plastic bags, but perhaps she should’ve given a little more care to the job at hand! This unsuspecting stuffed-animal was probably once a pride and joy of her son. Now he looks sad and rather squished.

Sadness Predicted

It’s not so often that people look at an image of a laughing boy and are asked the question “Is he sad?”. The simple response would be no. However, the person who answered this question must be a psychic, because he has predicted that the person will be sad soon. Will he be the cause? Will he make the boy sad? Maybe we have a psycho here.

Leave Plenty Of Space

Maybe just don’t park in front of a fire hydrant? In an emergency, first responders need instant access to them to prevent a full scale disaster. There must be nothing more annoying than being blocked by a car which clearly could have parked elsewhere. At least they found an innovative solution.

Better Parenting

Sometimes kids have fears, it happens. An example of a fear like this might be rollercoasters or other fair-ground rides. Sometimes parents have been known to push their kid to overcome this fear and go on the ride regardless. Come on, why do they need to do something they hate? Let them be. This sign knows.

Skeletal Surprise

This is quite a good prank actually. This person had decided to redo his bathroom and has left a nice surprise for the next person to inevitably redo the bathroom again. Say the house is sold within 10 years, redone within 20. Someone will certainly get a nasty shock when they see this skeleton!

A Classy Photo

This dude took a picture of his wife and couldn’t help but laugh. She was quite confused until she saw the picture. If you look closely, you can see that her whole face actually makes the shot, but only in the frame of the glasses!

Wasted Trip

When this man wakes up, we just know he will be sad. Taking the subway in order to get a special pizza only to fall asleep and let it all fall is quite tragic. Someone should make a portrait of this. “Pain in Pizza”.

That’s My Seat

If you’re going to go through a breakup, you know it can be tough. You have to split your items, you might feel some stress and sad. One thing you can count on, is being able to use the bathroom in peace.. right? Evidently not for this couple! This girl got a rude surprise when she went to use the bathroom after her boyfriend moved out. How does someone stealthily remove a toilet without anyone even seeing? It’s unfortunate, but a little impressive.

Don’t Miss The Sunscreen

As tempted as you may be to skip the sunscreen in favor of a tan or the belief that your clothes would cover you… Consider this female who had her clothes burned through. Holy jeans are not sunbathing attire!

Bad Luck

“A bird flew into my window, peed on my laptop, and then died right in front of my eyes.” Birds are used as omens in many civilizations, and I’m sure they’d all agree that this isn’t a good sign. We are sure the laptop user might’ve been put off from their work after this.

An Unfriendly Reminder

In Gary’s defense, Facebook appears to be dwindling in popularity in compared to its peak. Perhaps Gary simply has real-life friends that phone and visit him on his birthday. Let’s hope for the best. Don’t be down Gary! Enjoy your birthday anyway.

Rude Passport

Sometimes we take pictures from certain angles which just don’t do us justice. Our forehead looks a little big, our face looks full and we look bigger than we are. Let’s go back to the forehead one. Often we can actually take a normal photo, and a friend might use an app to elongate the forehead as a joke. Well, even real institutions like the State Department might do that too.. Just look at this girl’s passport photo! They did her dirty here.

Big Magnet

Were you aware that an MRI machine is a basically a giant magnet? Possibly. We are sure most people are aware that people are told to remove anything metal before entering an MRI, but sometimes we guess people can forget. Just like these workers, who obviously forgot about this massive metal trailer in the room before turning it on.

Windowless

Sometimes it can be quite a fight for the window seat. Often these days, seats are pre-booked and you might see your kids fight for the window seat. What is more difficult to anticipate is that your window seat, might not actually be a window seat at all! We suppose this might only be the case for one or two rows of the plane, but this kid certainly had some bad luck and didn’t hesitate to express his unhappiness!

Seriously Dry

This dryer has taken drying clothes to a whole new level. How do we dry clothes? Using heat. We guess the hotter an area is, the quicker your clothing will dry, right? Well, this might be a step too far. Sure fire is hot, but it will also burn your clothes to a crisp.

A Lengthy Update

If any of you are mathematics wizzes, perhaps you will know that 100% is essentially the maximum. For example, if you have 5 apples, and you give away 5 apples, you’ve given away 100% of your apples. Sometimes regarding interest or cash, you can make 150% profit for example, showing You’ve doubled your money back and then another 50 percent. With your updates on your computer however, the max should only ever be 100. This computer is having a laugh!

Always Count On Yourself

This was allegedly a SWAT team from France. If you want something done well, you know what they say: do it yourself. That obviously includes preserving your own life rather than relying on a SWAT team.

Security Breach

It appears that someone at Target hasn’t done their job properly… Usually when an item is purchased the security tag is released, whereas that hasn’t been the case for this delivered amazon echo. Is this a sting operation? Are police going to break through the door? Maybe.

Setting Himself Up For Failure

Kyle really made an error in judgement here. It is one thing to tell your friends to not share embarrassing stories, but sending that message to her directly! Wow. Relationships are built on honesty, aren’t they? Even the embarrassing stories.

Really Got Himself Into A Mess

Technicality

This Dad went to pickup a chicken nugget meal for his son as a treat, and while technically they fulfilled their promise, this isn’t really what he expected. Traditionally, a chicken nugget meal consists of many nuggets, maybe 10-20. This one is a chicken nugget meal, but really is just that- a single nugget. We wonder if it tasted okay still.

Read Your Labels

Make sure you read your labels before pouring something into your food, you can stop yourself from easily ruining your whole meal. This person may have confused their soy sauce with vanilla extract, and it could’ve been costly. The bottle is the same, the liquid is the same color but they certainly have different effects on rice!

Chronic Irony

This shelf stacker either has a dark sense of humor or simply doesn’t see the irony in this product placement. People might have come to this pharmacy for a solution to their chronic back pain. However, the only way to get your item is by bending down; something someone with chronic back pain would struggle to do. Funny, but tragic.

Snow White

Perhaps this person was trying to recreate Snow White, but took things a little too literally. No, that isn’t just nice fancy fluffy bedding, it is actually snow engulfing this room! If there is ever a snowstorm, please make sure all your windows are closed! Otherwise you could have a situation quite like this.

Tragedy

Wow, how can someone have such bad luck? Imagine one step forward, two steps back to the extreme. This must have truly been a horrible experience for the young girl. The odds of this happening must have been exceptionally low.

Misplaced Remote

Sometimes when we’re doing a million things, we accidentally take things from one room to another and completely forget, even if that item really doesn’t belong in that room. This person must have been doing the laundry, while watching tv, while answering the phone, while doing something else, because they have accidentally washed their remote! We guess they aren’t changing the channel for a while.

Bee Backpack

I mean, the person who hung the bag like this was kind of asking for it, right? The bag is yellow and black, the color of bees. The bees must have confused it for their home, naturally gravitating towards it! Maybe they’ll get some fresh honeycomb, at least.

Evil Designer

This one is an accident waiting to happen. People often leave their toothbrush and paste next to the sink, so whoever thought that incorporating a slide direct to the toilet bowl was a good idea, needs to be fired! We are sure this is only one of many lost toothbrushes to this design.

Was Kevin Malone Here?

What is better than Kevin’s chilli? Well, watching Kevin spill it all over the floor. Perhaps a similar fate has happened to this person, as we are sure they chair wasn’t so chilli’d beforehand.
