35 People Who Thought They Got Away With It

It is only natural to want to give yourself a bit of a head start over everyone else in life. Whether it be through simple good fortune, or by bending the odds ever so slightly in your favor… yes, I’m talking about cheating.

Now, I’m not one for lecturing people about cheating, as I was the kid that always used to raid the bank for extra money in Monopoly. However, here are some people who didn’t get quite get away with what they had hoped to. So, strap in, and get ready for these 15+ people who thought they got away with it!

“My buddy teaches English in China, his student might be cheating on google translate.”

This is why you always put the answer you get back through the translator and back into your own language. Not that I ever used to cheat in language classes.

Suspicions Confirmed

Oh, come on, this is basic stuff, guys. The most important first step to stealing your housemate’s food is… don’t.

“My uncle’s dog caught a bird and failed in his attempt to hide it from the other dog.”

“You going to share that bird or what, bro?”

“Bird, what bird? I don’t know what you’re talking about, I’ve never even seen a bird!”

“I don’t like taxis anymore.”

I feel that this could be an advert for wearing your damn seatbelt! Either that or an advert warning people to wear less makeup.

It was almost the purrr-fect crime, alas they left pawprints all over the crime scene. A rookie mistake.

“Hungarian roads never fail to amaze me…”

“Should we just pour cement over the shovel, no one would notice?”

“Or, we could just leave it and go the pub?”

“This is what happens when the weather computer fails during my local news.”

“Dave, you call that a sun? Looks more like a plug hole.”

“Shut up Allan, we didn’t all go to art school okay!”

“My sister and her fiancé had a “90s” themed engagement party…. failed to specify a century.”

Look, I know that there is a lot going on, but I was completely baffled by why someone would wear an “escape the fate” t-shirt to a 90s themed party? The person who posted this went on to explain, “That is my younger brother, and yes, he was well aware that Escape the Fate wasn’t around in the 90s. He is lazy, so his costume was pieced together at the last minute.”

“I may have caught the moment my dog realized we weren’t going to the park.”

“Oh, I can’t wait to get to the park, I’m gonna run around and… wait! Godamn you lying hounds.”

Now these are the types of heroes we need in this world.

“I thought I was getting a marvelous deal on a baby ball python. Instead, I discovered I’ve been overcharged for a decorative scrunchie.”
