35 People Who Weren't Exactly As Slick As They Thought

Yup, he happened to be mid-pick just as the Google Street View car passed by, so now he's been immortalized.

If it helps, this probably didn't happen because someone felt like being a jerk.

According to one Buffalo Wild Wings manager, what likely happened here was that a new employee was confused by the fact that the ordering system says "slice American" when you go with a different cheese than they usually use for cheese fries.

It's unknown why the system has such a confusing way of putting it, but there you go.

I have to admit that it's pretty clever and it could've fooled me, but one teacher either had a lot of experience with Apple Watches or house arrest, so they didn't buy it for a second and the watch was confiscated.

Tough break, dude.

This technique may have worked on the guards at Alcatraz, but they probably weren't asking the inmates a question and wondering why they weren't getting a response.

Also, it's usually a little risky to pick a decoy that can pop easily.

You know, they probably could've gotten away with it if they didn't take out their phone in the theater.

Nothing makes people more likely to snitch than a Tommy Texter, after all.

Yeah, this guy apparently thought he found a clever way to hide his chewing tobacco, but he made the mistake of underestimating how bored the game's camera people can get.

I'm guessing they realized to their chagrin that security staff won't just let you quickly flash your wrist at them and walk on by.

Because it only takes a brief look to realize what's wrong with this.

People don't like being ripped off by a quarter of a corn dog and they have a way of remembering who wronged them.

Just ask my mom, who refused to shop at Radio Shack forever when they sold her a defective clock radio in 1989.

Is Guitar Center known for having really high counters or something? If not, I just can't figure how this guy thought he was getting away with this.

In case it's not clear, they stole a power pole from the city in broad daylight.

Even putting aside the mystery of why they wanted it, what else did they expect people to think they were carrying around?

If you've noticed that there's often too much stuff in the way to see these basketball hoops from the side, now you know why.

A tilted-up, oblong hoop that's just barely as big as the ball doesn't exactly scream "fair play."

I guess he was just really hoping they'd delete the footage of him stealing even though they cared enough to prominently display his picture in the first place.

Yeah, no such luck.

But who knows? Maybe he got his wish anyway and this picture managed to get 100 likes after his little blooper went viral.

However, in all of his bravado, it seems he didn't realize that he left something kind of important behind.

Unsurprisingly, it didn't take police long to catch him with such a helpful clue on their side.

Unlike most gift cards, this one is apparently contingent on leaving the seller a "fair" review and not showing this card at any point during that review. Hmm, nothing suspicious about that.

Yeah, in case you weren't aware, incentivizing reviews like this is against Amazon's Terms of Service.

Apparently, someone tried to slip about 45 million rupees' worth of international currencies through security at the Delhi airport by hiding it in these peanut shells.

It's honestly impressive, but it's apparently not impressive enough.

And because of that, all nine of its built-in cameras were able to get a clear view of her vandalism. Oops.

And I'll admit that I didn't like school very much either, but whoever caught this kid kind of did them a favor.

After all, I think even math homework might seem more fun than just sitting here and pretending to be a bush for hours on end.

Ah, yes. A totally normal and not at all scummy practice to give your rate for every 10 minutes instead of your hourly rate.

After all, the fact that there isn't even a name for rates that work in increments of 10 minutes totally suggests that everyone does that.

As this user put it simply when he posted it: "caught a fist, lost a fish." This is why I don't go fishing. Can't lose a fish you never caught.

I see a lot of posts like this. Is assigned parking at high schools normal? At mine I just had to show up early and hope for the best after waiting in turning traffic for 15 minutes.

The translation is, "Thank you very much for keeping the bathroom clean. If you see someone making a mess, let me know. I’ll clean them up." If there's one way to enforce cleanliness at your establishment, this is it.

Am I in the wrong for knowing I'd be disappointed that there weren't cookies? Sugar gets me through the day. Also, I still live like a child.

This dog was trying to eat the cats' food, then he got his head stuck in the tub. Even the cats behind him are looking at him like, "I can't believe this betrayal. You've forsaken us. You deserve this."

And to think he almost got away with it, too. you will not be escaping today, young sock, you have a long life ahead of you yet.

Forget a security system, forget a guard dog, the threat of a mother's wrath is enough to get me to do anything.

I'm not sure what this boy did to this cat, but with that look of determination and vengeance in the cat's eyes, he must deserve whatever fate he's being given.

Dogs act all buddy buddy when you come home from work, but the second you infringe on their alone time, it's a whole different story.

I'm more impressed that the water didn't wake him than I am mad he was napping while working.

She caught the bouquet at a wedding. That guy behind her looking like he's reevaluating every choice he's ever made? Her boyfriend. I think y'all need to have a talk.

I have full confidence a store clerk did this on purpose just to laugh at people who stare in panic. A sadistic joy.

That is, this error message on this display at Jack in the Box definitely gives the impression that they pirated a copy of windows.

To be fair, it's apparently not unheard of for Windows XP to generate this message even when you have a legitimate copy. Still, good luck convincing people of that.

This young man was caught giving roses to three different girls at his first school dance! The drama! He's going to learn real quick that there's no greater revenge than that created by a band of girls working together.

You should be flattered. This dog knows you have the good treats and is willing to do anything to get them.

Now the question is would this deter or encourage package thieves? What are their true motivations?
