16+ Times People Found Out Their Friend Was A Tad Slow And Posted The Evidence

We've all known idiots before. Heck, if you're being honest with yourself, there are at least a few times in which you've been the idiot. Don't worry, you're not alone. Let's have a look at some of the dumber roomies/friends/spouses out there.

If it fits...

Power outlets are pretty intuitive, right? Just plug and play. This doesn't make them idiot-proof, however. You can see here how plug and play doesn't always work out as intended.

Street sweeper.

Reddit | vault34

A Redditor posted this, explaining that his wife drove, conservatively, 18 miles with a push broom lodged under her car. She only stopped when it started to smell "like burning."

Close enough.

I would excuse this as a delivery order made by someone who'd had a few too many, but then I realized something alarming: plain cheese pizza. C'mon, get something on it.

Old school.

Reddit | Foreknown

Sometimes, you tell someone to put a reminder on their phone. Sometimes, they'll figure it out. The other one percent of the time, they'll literally put a reminder on their phone.

Just...how?

Reddit | ahoban1

This pic was a posted by a Redditor with the simple caption "My roommate's bathroom." The post didn't elaborate further, so all we have is questions. Like, is this person's roommate a chimney sweep?

W O O D.

Reddit | ImmediateLetterhead

I love the art attached to this image. I also love how, upside-down, "Doom" could also be interpreted as "Wooo", suggesting that Ric Flair, at last, has gotten his own video game.

Live and learn.

Transporting mattresses seems easy: just strap them on the roof, right? But here's the thing: mattresses generate all kinds of lift once you're moving, so if you use just one strap to secure them (as this guy did), you're going to have a bad time.

They meant well.

Reddit | eaglesfanone

This poster says their girlfriend made pasta and thoughtfully tried to keep it warm. She totally aced the part about putting a lid on the top to keep the heat in. We won't focus on the other part.

I like pasta, but geez...

Reddit | schiz0yd

This Redditor's roomie moved out, leaving this. Clearly, they liked pasta. They also may have had some form of short-term amnesia when it comes to remembering how much pasta they had in the pantry.

Not how you coffee.

Reddit | MycabbagesGuy

This guy's roommate was so close to deciphering the complex art of making coffee: first you pour the...beans...into the filter, then it pretty much makes itself, right? He did his best.

Does this even count as a skillet?

Reddit | madlyalive

Look, when you're buying stuff online, it's always important to check the product's dimensions. A 3-inch skillet doesn't magically become full-sized just because you zoomed in on the image.

An unconventional heating solution?

Reddit | JohannReddit

Remember the heat wave episode of The Simpsons, where the family put up a tent in front of the open fridge? It worked, but not for long. This is kind of like that.

It could happen to anyone.

Reddit | xrd_evilfox

You could look at this pic and be mad at the idiot who did it. But then again, maybe they just thought the burner was a custom-made tortilla heater, so they used it as such.

It isn't even facing the right direction.

Reddit | jimmywsjensen

I know embroidery isn't easy, exactly. But these little kits, with their guided instructions, should be idiot-proof, right? The end result here looks like a three-year-old tried to draw an albino giraffe.

Perspective is tough.

Reddit | bondo84

I'm so confused here. Like, leaves are fairly small to begin with. You don't need to do a perspective trick to make them look little in the first place.

Hmmm.

Reddit | ievenredditedthis

I realize the box says "Freezer bags", but what did this person think would happen once they put them in the freezer? They're plastic. It's not like they're going to go bad.

Oh dear.

Reddit | imconservative

Honestly, I kind of get it. If you find something cool on your desktop computer, it can be a bit of a hassle to send it via text. But man, photographing a photograph is a total rookie move.

My Buddy Louie

Reddit | Sufferintruth

Ah, to be young, dumb, and in love.

A Reallllllly Chill Gift

Reddit | effthegreen

"My wife bought me these socks because she thought they were palm trees," this guy shares, "Nice one."

Chuckie

Reddit | Tbergz

"I asked my wife for a Chuckie mask so we could scare the kids," this man writes, "She's too innocent."

Not Even Remotely Close

Reddit | bungled

This guy asked his girlfriend if she'd seen the remote and she said no. Sometimes actions speak louder than words.

Itchy And Scratchy

Reddit | quickbrowngoat

This woman's husband kept saying that she got an invalid scratch ticket because "he scratched it and there was no code."

Just In Case

Reddit | elsteeler

"I bought my boyfriend 10 different SD cards for his new camera," this woman shares, "At the time, I didn't know that one card can just overright old images and be used again."

To Thaw

Twitter | @konner_mac

Well, he technically followed instructions?

You Just Need An Outlet

Reddit | J-Mart11

Sometimes the oddest problems have the simplest solutions.

It's A Boy

Twitter | @VNSAMRE

You could put a plain forest stick in front of a boy and call it a pregnancy test and they would full on believe you.

If it looks like eyedrops...

Reddit | Rainbowpoops

Considering you're about to put it in your eyeballs, it's probably best to read the label first. This Redditor's boyfriend was wondering why these "eyedrops" made his eyes feel like burning.

(R-IL.)

Reddit | MemphisRains

The Redditor who posted this wrote, "While watching the football game last night my wife ask, 'Why do they tell you what political party the players support?'" For what it's worth, it stands for Rookie, not Republican.

Talk about painting yourself into a corner.

Reddit | power-cube

I've actually been thinking about this predicament, and I think there's only one solution that won't mess up her work: just stay in that spot of the floor for days until the varnish dries.
