12+ Moments That Are Only Funny Because They Didn't Happen To You

We can all relate to the feeling I'm talking about — that "whew" moment, maybe with a bit of guilt? That's the feeling.

When your friend who's carrying a loaded tray of milkshakes trips and falls on the sidewalk, it's the smile you make after you see it but before you check to see if they're OK.

I mean, I hope you relate to this. I might go take one of those online sociopath tests.

1. It's definitely easier to laugh when even the victim can see the humor in the situation. True heroes play through the pain, right?

It still sucks, but if you can get a good tweet out of it, did you really lose at all?

2. Just imagine, you're halfway through a super rough day, the only thing keeping you going is that cold, delicious drink waiting for you in the office fridge, and...

My coworkers make fun of me for bringing juice boxes. Who's laughing now?

3. I'm assuming this was an accident getting it home and that they didn't go to the bakery and ask, "Can I have your most distressing cake, please?"

Reddit | Embear10

"Yes, that one, the one that gives me anxiety just looking at it. Thank you, how much?"

4. At least you know the cake isn't going to sting you for trying to eat it. That is, until the wasps get it, too...

Seriously, every living wasp is a walking, flying, bad time. I just wanted a Skittle.

5. Sometimes, it's easy to see the bright side of a problem.

I guess it's a lot easier when it's not your car, you're twenty feet away, and there's a literal rainbow.

6. Bruh. I'm...just so sorry. There are no words for this tragedy.

I mean, there are some words. But I'm pretty sure the editors* will take them out.

*Editor: We did. It was...a lot.

At least he didn't do it on purpose. Frankly, I think that should be a felony in any civilized country.

As far as I'm concerned, Walter White was already a villain by season three.

7. OK, yes this sucks, but more importantly, I need to know if I'm the only one who thought those were croissants tossed all over the place.

Be right back, popping over to the café for unrelated reasons.

8. You have to admire the sheer laziness it takes not to fix this door after realizing it's totally upside-down.

"Nah, nah, that's, uh...like a peephole, but for shoes. Yeah, that's it."

9. Who hurt you, dude? I can practically hear sad violin music playing over this image.

What horror have those pants gone through? And...are they even worth saving at this point?

10. Don't you just hate it when you catch someone else wearing the same thing as you?

The Chive | The Chive

I gotta say, it looks good on both of 'em. I wonder if there are matching pants, too...

See, this is why I always wear the same thing. Saves me time in the morning, and I always know that I wore it first, so I get the moral high ground.

Basically, this is my dream.

11. I have to wonder if this was just a bit of tragic comedy...

Reddit | RealmDevourer

...or if the owner picked the name just in case it sank because they thought it would be hilarious.

12. I can't figure out if this kid is just scared of birds, or if he just lost a piece of bread he was really looking forward to eating.

Taking bets — my money's on bread.

13. A third possibility is that all birds everywhere are taking revenge for this...whatever this is.

I've never seen a duck with more of a "this is my life now" look than this. Sorry, bruh.

I'm not really into the whole "dressing up animals" thing, but they could've at least showed some class and made him Waluigi.

It doesn't matter what species you are. Waluigi is always an improvement.
