15+ People Who Learned You Can't Always Get What You Want

In case it's not clear what happened, this man went grocery shopping only for his wife to realize that her thong had been stuck on the velco of his pants for the whole time.

From the sounds of it, he didn't seem to care that much, but she seemed pretty embarrassed.

But once they did, they learned that whoever packed it did their level best to give them as few pieces of bacon and scrambled eggs as possible.

I wonder how tightly they wrapped this up, then?

After all, it's not just that this person's cat knocked a roll of toilet paper into the toilet. No, the problem is that that the little devil did it to their last roll of toilet paper.

It's hard to call that a coincidence.

Knowing how intensely brand-conscious Disney is, I can't really see them OKing any merch that makes Simba looks like he's about to vomit.

Frankly, I'm surprised anyone looked at this and thought, "Yup, perfect!"

There's already a lot that doesn't even remotely go together here, but those grey blobs are apparently oysters, in case you were wondering.

Now I can see what Simba's problem was.

Because even if you can somehow avoid messing up your ankles, it turns out that those heels can do as much damage to a windshield as they can to someone else's feet.

It's honestly kind of cool how they stayed in place, but I bet the driver feels differently.

Because no matter how much their coworkers may waste toner, they'd have a hard time using as much as somebody did to print this message.

Black text on white paper just wasn't good enough, huh?

This is like if that kid who reminded the teacher we had homework soon discovered that even they forgot to do it.

Way to go, Larry, you got the most satisfying F I've ever seen.

Leap years can obviously throw people off, but I also really like the idea of this milk's sell-by date being the imperceptible window between 11:59 on February 29 and 12:00 on March 1.

I'll bet this knife has some intimidating name like the Samurai or the Slicemaster or something, too. After all, this level of failure often comes with a lot of insecure over-compensating.

Why? Well, this was supposed to be the setting for a surprise engagement party the uploader planned for their girlfriend.

The problem was that they somehow managed to set the whole thing on fire. Don't worry, though, she still said yes.

I'll give him that he was doing very well for a while, but it all went to Hell once he tried to get fancy and do a back flip.

Yeah, getting tangled in the rope is a much bigger deal in this scenario.

I turns out that the uploader threw a lighter at their roommate, who then instinctively slapped it away and sent it hurtling right into the screen.

You know what they say: Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Apparently, this chair belonged to one of the uploader's coworkers until a customer made it pretty undesirable by peeing themselves on it.

And for anyone who's wondering, no. It doesn't sound like they did it on purpose.

And if you can't, congratulations! Holiday dinners with your extended family have a lot fewer political arguments than the rest of us.

To be honest, I don't even get nervous about going to my dentist. But I probably would if he came out rocking one of these.

It just turns out that they didn't know that their roommate was using the oven to "prove" bread, so they preheated it for something else and voilà! Big mess!

If I had to guess, I'd say that they were using this saw because the tire wasn't coming off without it, but then things went horribly wrong.

But frankly, who knows? This is a new one on me.

Apparently, they forgot to empty it before going on a work trip, which created the conditions it needed to grow life.

Very exciting, but only if you're not a coffee drinker.

And likely because it means she's going to have to field a lot more uncomfortable requests, she looks less-than-impressed about this bold new surprise.
