20 Times We Thought That Life Was Just One Big Joke, With Us As The Butt Of It

Do you ever get the feeling that life is pointing at you and laughing at you whenever you turn your back? No? Okay, well it might just be me then.

However, with this idea in mind, please get ready to kill some time that should be spent doing something productive with these 20 times that we thought life was just one big joke, with us at the bottom of it.

"I took a late lunch to find I forgot to put PB or J on my PB & J."

On the plus side, this meal option is much better for you than having an actual PB & J. One thing is for sure though, it is a lot more bland.

"A student in my class tried using 4 devices to cheat on a quiz, but somehow managed to get the wrong answer on all of them."

It is kind of impressive to get a single question wrong four time. Although, it would have been more impressive if they just got it right.

"Was woodworking a ring and checked the size. Now it isn't coming off."

Well at least now you know that it is a little bit too small! Making it less small will be a bit of a struggle now that it is jammed onto your finger though.

"Housemate's dog got into my 6 hour Butter Chicken. No dinner for me tonight."

Surely their housemate should be buying them dinner tonight seeing as how it was their dog that ate the damn chicken? Also, I bet that dog is going to be pooping for days.

"When you wake up after a windy night and find a mountain of tumbleweeds in your front yard…"

I love that you can just barely see a car bursting out of the midden of tumbleweeds. I wonder how long it took them to clear all of this mess up?

"I need a little more context for this picture. Why does Santa have a shiner!?"

I think that Santa might have been getting drunk again and getting into fights with people who dispute whether or not he is real! Christ, there's nothing Santa likes more than a good bar fight.

"This is the one thing I am most worried about before getting on a plane."

There are a lot of things that you could still do to their feet at this point though. A lot of people suggested that they could just tickle them, but I wouldn't want to touch those feet.

"Almost totally empty dishwasher, and yet my roommate loads their plate like this. I live with goddam animals."

I am still kind of impressed that this person lives with someone who actually puts their dishes in the dishwasher. That is a lot more than my old housemates used to do!

"When a fortune cookie is just a dad joke."

But, no one wants to hear a dad joke even at the best of times, right? So why would you want one in a fortune cookie?! I can't use this to tell which numbers I need on the lottery damn it!

"Coworker's kids left the van door open before a storm."

I bet that there was a bit of a race to the car to see who doesn't have to sit in the snow seat for a while! Just blast the heaters, it'll be fine...probably.

"The Fedex deliveries in my area frequently get lost. Today someone found 300-400 boxes in a ravine."

Well why would anyone let a perfectly good ravine go to waste? You may as well fill it up! Also, if anyone finds a cafetière in there, I think it might be mine.

"Someone used my tech deck as a nail file. now it feels weird when i try to use it."

Wow, I haven't seen a Tech Deck for years! It is just a shame that now I am seeing one, it is one that has been sullied by someone's fingernails.

"Last month, a barge broke loose from an anchor during a storm in Vancouver. Today, Vancouver Park Board put up a new sign."

Apparently, this name is also a reference to another park in the city which is called "Dude Chilling Park."

"Thanksgiving dinner was a hit, and many helped with the dishes. But, I found my chef's knife like this today…"

What on Earth did the person washing this do to this knife to make it look like this?! Christ alive, they have absolutely destroyed it!

"This newly opened subway store (first in our country) had lines that were 6+ hours long. We asked someone how long they queued for and they said from 6AM to 4PM."

Look, Subway is really not that good anyway. It certainly isn't worth waiting in line for 6 hours for!

"When your tire goes bazooka..."

How does this kind of thing even happen? I would not want to be standing that close to it either, get away from that thing! No picture is worth getting a slab of rubber in the eye!

"Walked out of the store and there was this blue haired woman circling my car. I see her plastered next to my car, taking a piss. Fun day!"

I suppose that it could have been worse, she could have pooped on the car itself?

"Literally my first day on the job, and I shattered a customers window. Kill me, thanks."

I wonder if they managed to get a second day on the job after this? In fairness, people make mistakes and it can't be helped sometimes.

"Got a call that said the field trip was running late due to a 'bus malfunction.' This was not what I was expecting."

That is definitely a 'malfunction' of sorts. I just think that it might be a slightly more prominent 'malfunction' than most other 'malfunctions'.

"Took off my beanie and AirPods to set them on the table when I got home from work. Did not notice the candle underneath."

I mean, I am just amazed that anyone is able to set anything down onto a burning candle without realising that they are setting the thing they are holding onto a burning candle!?
