When was the last time you tried something new? Or did anything for the first time, even something mundane? First day at a new job maybe, or perhaps just testing out a new recipe? No matter what it is, hopefully you went confidently into it instead of doubting yourself.
As for the people in this list, well, there's no saying what was going through their heads, but no matter what it was, their first-try attempts ended catastrophically.
I didn't know that air fryers could even get hot enough to create homemade molten-lava rocks, or mid-burn fire logs, whatever you want to call this disaster of a sweet potato. How it didn't just catch on fire, we'll never know.
Thankfully the original poster returned to say that they were still delicious, which is good! No pancake went to waste even if it does look a bit of a mess.
But hey, who are we to make pancakes subscribe to beauty standards in order to consider them edible?
That looks like a decently sized kitchen, did no one see him doing this? Did no one look at a plastic bucket next to a sizzling hot vat of oil and think 'hmm, this might end badly if I don't step in'? Yes, the employee was silly for this, but so was everyone else for just watching!
Does your child think that 'cleaning' things is whacking them with the hard end of a broom? If so, I'd have to question who he's been modeling that behavior after and why.
Forget baking soda and vinegar volcanos, this is the new at-home science project all the kids are raving about. Just stick a jar of Nutella in your microwave and watch it create horrid alien life, all while trying to not burn your kitchen down!
Who invented a frisbee with a hole in the middle? That just seems like bad design. Frisbees are to be used outdoors in nature, where plenty of stick-like features could cause it to get stuck like this!
"My brother-in-law was bow hunting and using his camera as a spotting scope. It was tight in the blind and instead of moving the camera he tried to shoot around it. RIP Canon."
Never have I feared someone more than I do thinking of someone who owns a gallon size jar of Tabasco sauce, and I'm not just saying that because it looks like you just got done murdering someone.
"Tried to save a few trees and bought a silicone 'cotton swab'. Guess who’s in urgent care because the other end is stuck in his ear?"
As someone with a notorious ear-cleaning problem, this has single-handedly convinced me to never try one of these silicone ones.
Thanks to this post, I'm also learning what sand fleas are, and now I'm making sure to avoid any areas with sand for the rest of my life. So long, beaches, it was nice while it lasted!
When someone asked how they did this, OP returned with a fantastic reply, "Using a whipper snipper around the garden and I guess I clipped a small rock or something in the grass and sent it straight through the window. Boss said he hadn't seen that in 9 years and I do it first day. Yay."
Okay, I have a confession to make. I also tried using a waffle iron once and it wound up just like this one. I've been ashamed ever since, and haven't even touched my waffle iron again. The waffle iron life was just not for me.
Wait, does this mean that it passed the test or no? I don't see any ink anywhere, but maybe it ran out a few miles ago and was working fine before then.
"Got my mom a heat changing mug with a photo of us on it. She was so excited to try it out only to find out that the company printed some other person’s picture on the mug."
This is perfect, with time the trees will fuse together and make one hybrid super-tree that will stand strong and tall amidst the residential apartment buildings, providing green shade for all!
I'd even go as far as to say that no ice cream recipe asks for that type of sugar to salt ratio. I can't imagine what anyone would want with cold, salty vanilla paste, but maybe you can hand out some samples and see if someone knows!
Noted. That's a frightening-looking contraption that I don't think I'd want anywhere near my delicate eyelashes in the first place, but if I'm ever subject to such a torture device, I'll be sure to keep in all my sneezes.
What do you even do in the face of this? Buy a whole new washing machine? The thought of cleaning it would stress me out so much that that would feel like the only option.
Collect all that filling, stick it in a bowl, and now you can have a chocolate dip sort of situation. Tear those buttery croissants up and dip away! Only once, though, be it chips or pastries, no one likes a double-dipper.
The flavor combination this must make feels so inherently revolting that it should be illegal to imagine it. I'm so sorry you lost out on your coffee, OP, may you have gathered the strength to try again and redeem yourself.
