There are times when it really feels like the rest of the world is out to get us. Sometimes other people are just plain rude or annoying, and sometimes it's just a matter of everything around you going wrong.

Whatever the case, you have to admit that these people might have it a little worse than most. They have every right to be as annoyed as they are.

"The realtor left my front door like this after a showing."

A door with an open lockbox on the knob, and a key in the keyhole.

Having potential buyers walk through your house is annoying enough, but when your real estate agent can't even be bothered to remember to put the key back in the lockbox? That's a thousand times worse.

"We ordered 1,600 of them... Sent them a link for a logo and they printed the link."

One of hundreds of pens with a link to a Google Drive file stamped on it.
reddit | Worldly_Couple1605

You really have to wonder what goes through printing company workers' heads when somebody sends them a link. Like, do they even bother to open them?

"Neighbour built a community library. Last night someone dumped chili and cat food inside."

A tiny library covered in wet food.

Whoever did this deserves to be shamed publicly. Like, this is just so mean. Way to take a cute community idea and turn it into something utterly disgusting.

"Checked into a serviced apartment for a work trip today, opened the oven and found these furry dino nuggets."

A tray full of frozen dinosaur nuggets that are also covered in fuzzy mold.
reddit | Dod_gee

I guess somebody went to make dino nuggets, forgot about them, and then never used their oven again? And no one bothered to clean it up?

"The size of the box amazon used to deliver my girlfriend's nail polish."

A large box next to a tiny cosmetic bottle.

I need to know why Amazon feels the need to package tiny things in huge boxes. Is it some kind of theft deterrent? Do they not make smaller boxes? Why??

"Misspelled... Twice."

A sign that reads, "Safe the sea Safe-yourself."
reddit | That1RadioGuy

As annoying as the typo is, I can't help but wonder why "safe-yourself" is hyphenated. Not only is it spelled wrong, but it's grammatically wrong, too. Now I'm even more annoyed than I was when I first looked at this thing.

"Get to work, go to put in my earbuds, and... They're completely gone without a trace."

An empty case for wireless earbuds.
reddit | Grizzly840

Forgetting to put your earbuds back in their case is pretty annoying. But I genuinely hope that's what happened here, and they aren't missing because a coworker swiped them or something.

"This is after gym staff finish their workouts."

A gym floor with weights littering it, none in their place.
reddit | vunnymck

I feel like this might be the gym staff's revenge on members who don't put their stuff away. But even if that was the case, it's the gym-goers who actually clean up after themselves who end up suffering.

"A friend came back to the car park to find this."

A shopping cart parked dangerously close to a car.
reddit | randomuserno2

People who don't put their carts away are the worst of the worst — except for apparently the one person out there who would zip-tie a shopping cart to someone's car?

"I went to grab something out of my car and noticed my key snapped in half. The other half is in the keyhole to my trunk now."

A car key that's missing part of the end.

Sometimes life is just really out to get you. And the worst part is that you don't have anyone to blame. It's just pure bad luck.

"This guy on my flight back to London..."

A bare foot sticking out from underneath an airplane seat.

There are a lot of reasons to dislike flying, but I think the biggest one is other passengers. Some people straight up lack spatial awareness, or consideration, or both, and it's just awful.

There was no other way to park?

A pickup truck parked into a road, instead of just along the side.

I think the most bizarre part of this is the fact that the shoulder is huge, and yet this person still insisted on parking sideways. Other drivers are gonna have a real fun time driving around that pickup.

"I've been picking up after this guy almost every day for the past 6 yrs. Still not sure who it is."

Trash on the ground, directly next to a metal garbage bin.
reddit | kzpf4s

It's almost like actually bothering to put your trash in the trashcan is too much effort. Or maybe, whoever is doing this just grew to expect OP to pick it up.

"The 4th of July shirt my wife ordered for our kid arrived in the mail today…"

A pair of iridescent sandals.
reddit | Psycholarocco

Ah yes, that's totally a shirt. Don't you just love it when you order something online, and they send you something completely different by mistake?

"Why take the toilet paper from the middle???"

A toilet paper roll stand where someone has started using one of the middle rolls.
reddit | DistrictMotor

The person who did this, did it on purpose for the chaos. This isn't something you do unless your goal is to really annoy the people around you. And it looks like they're succeeding.

"Landlord had an intern power wash our patio and now my flower garden is caked with mud."

A fenced-in garden that's covered in mud.
reddit | beerintrees

Well, it started with good intentions. But that doesn't make this muddy mess any less annoying to deal with. Hopefully some rain will come in and wash all that mud off.

"A flighty coworker was sharing powdered donuts, I said no thanks but she left some for another guy... in my notebook..."

A powdered donut on top of a notebook.
reddit | genismarvel

That's... such a weird thing to do to a coworker. I'd probably just throw it out in spite, but that might just make you look like the annoying jerk instead.

"Get out of the protected bike lane."

A car parked inside of a bike lane.
reddit | badgirlmonkey

At this point, I'm convinced that cars and bikes just can't exist together. Bikes are always in the way for car drivers, and cars are always in the way for cyclists. It's no-win.

"Our childcare provider decided to use our kids to update some artwork that my wife had made."

An art piece made of colourful shapes, each covered in handprints.
reddit | Phiko73

OP explained that the art was made by his wife with their kids, and "our nanny decided that she was going to take it upon herself to do the touch ups and added our kids handprints to the colours."

Very weird to just... do that without permission.

"iPod locked for 48 years."

An iPod that's "disabled for 24,983,568 minutes."
reddit | Rat_Ship

Sometimes I think about how much I miss the iPod era. And then I see things like this, and think that we're maybe better off without them. It was way too easy to accidentally lock yourself out of your iPod forever, basically.
