So, with this coping technique in mind, here are 15+ people who tried to pretend that everything was fine when it obviously wasn’t!

“Terrifying.”
This must be what Zoom calls look like in Hell between low-level demons and lost souls. I can just hear them saying, “Hi, Belphegor, you’re on mute, mate! Unmute your infernal mic!”
“I wonder what the thought process here was.”

“Lady and the tramp stamp…”
Sure, I like the joke of this one, but I do not know if I would really want it stuck on my body forever!
“No explanation needed…”
At the point where you have thrown, and lost, one shoe then you may as well throw your other shoe as well, unless your plan is to hop all the way home!
“Always check the fine print…”
Now, call me crazy, but I find that diarrhea is one of those situations that is always urgent!
“Picture on the website vs what was delivered.”
This is why you shouldn’t feed your Gremlin cakes after midnight. Christ, that one on the right really does look more horrifying the longer you look at it.
“I got this question wrong…”
I wonder if they can appeal this sort of thing? They must surely be able to. You’d hope, anyway.
“Husband made a barrier, and these two are not happy about it.
“Do you think this is a joke, Allan?”
“This terrible likeness will not go unpunished, Allan. Keep a weather eye on your shoes for poop.”
“Canadian public transport…”
I cannot wait for machines to have complete sentiency just so that they can genuinely apologize when they crash or make mistakes. Basically, I just want my printer to know the heartache it causes me.
“After a huge meal (Schweinshaxe) in Berlin I asked for just a small beer. This is what the waiter brought me:”
Nothing like a shot of beer to wash down a hearty meal! It’s better than no beer at all, I guess?
“Literally being held by a thread.”
Someone suggested that this phone might just be acting as a rear-view camera, which is a pretty ingenious idea, the more I think about it!
“Local Church was vandalized today in my town. Young punks and their love of fine linen.”

“I do calligraphy. I misplaced the circled in character, which is part of a 300 word scroll that I almost finished after 5 days of work, 200 characters in.”
Wow, now that has got to sting. I don’t know if I would ever be able to look at a scroll again after this… Which isn’t too much of a big deal for me as I don’t look at scrolls very often, fortunately.
“DC condos really pretend that this is ok… 5’7″ man for scale).”
Look, your chest is definitely going to be clean, if nothing else! They’ll have one hell of a sore back after washing their hair under that though.
“Why you should never put dish soap in a fountain.”
Actually, that looks like a great idea, as it looks fun as hell. Although, there’ll probably be someone ready to tell me that this is actually really bad for the fountain…
“Hey God, me again…”
It’s good that more and more people are wearing GoPro cameras on their helmets. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to be absolutely terrified by images such as these.
“Hmm, ok never mind!”
Well, what a wildly unpleasant image. I’ll let you draw your own conclusions from this one, I think.
“A local baker decorated this cake and even took pictures before realising it was the wrong side up.”
That is one hell of a beautiful 22nd birthday cake, and when you look at it in a mirror then it is perfect!
“Didn’t work I guess…”
I guess that they must have sprayed everything else in the house with this so that this bottle was the only thing left for their dog to chew!
“Open and shut case!”
I can see how this poor little guy might think that this was his litterbox I guess. And, based on that potential mix-up, I would be wary of eating any of it.
