No matter how many times we may think, “That’s it, I’ve seen it all!” the world and the people in it always find new ways to amaze and astound!

Whether it be through incredible acts of stupidity, truly unexpected circumstances, or even through naive innocence, there are things that happen on a daily basis that continue to baffle us. So, without further ado, here are 14+ things that should never have happened!

‘I Didn’t Do Anything Wrong’ Says Woman Who Jumped Into Monkey Enclosure

“Well that’s good to know.”

Image credit: Reddit | eugray
Reddit | eugray

I’m assuming that this is a package from someone’s kooky uncle, or a friend trying to embarrass their mate. Either that or it’s a delivery from a company that used to deal in a lot of pornography and are trying to change their branding.

“A first grader’s minor spelling mistake.”

Image credit: Reddit | immorta1
Reddit | immorta1

While kids sometimes say the darndest things, sometimes they accidentally say very unsettling things and should immediately be corrected!

“It was 60 and sunny yesterday. Forgot to put the top up.”

Image credit: Reddit | JollyFaithlessness3
Reddit | JollyFaithlessness3

It looks like a snowman has been taking out the convertible for a spin! It really brings new meaning to the term snowmobile.

“My six-year-old son showing his creative skills making a kitchen sink.”

Image credit: Reddit | pingomg
Reddit | pingomg

Yep, just a kitchen sink here, that is all. Absolutely nothing else to see her, and if you think it looks like anything else at all then you should be ashamed of yourself!

“Mistakes were made.”

Image credit: Reddit | Sariel007
Reddit | Sariel007

Vending machines are really starting to stock weirder and weirder things aren’t they?

“Mom! You’ve made a huge mistake!”

Image credit: Reddit | adammolens
Reddit | adammolens

I think that this dog’s expression is actually quite similar to a lot of parents the first time they hear their baby cry.

“Finding a hundred dollar bill in the parking lot only to learn it’s movie prop money.”

Image credit: Reddit | daito-
Reddit | daito-

I wonder how many people get away with using prop money. I mean, looking at that you’d think that no one would ever accept it, but I bet a lot more cashiers do than you may think!

“I’ve made a huge mistake.”

Image credit: Reddit | zaphod0002
Reddit | zaphod0002

This all-cat recreation of Titanic is looking as terrible as… well, as terrible the film Cats. Did you see that movie? What a beautifully hot mess!

“Now I know my ABCs, I’ll write them on our SUV”

Image credit: Reddit | unneekway
Reddit | unneekway

Someone pointed out that the “J” is backward. Well, at least there are more headrests for them to practice on!

“Burnt my hand taking tomato soup out of the microwave. The toast I was making popped up and scared me.”

Image credit: Reddit | missouriprincess
Reddit | missouriprincess

This was apparently this person’s submission for the “dumbest way to injure yourself”. And, as far as dumb injuries go, they’re nailing it.

“Face-swapping with the Hulk turned out much different than I had planned…”

Image credit: Reddit | ZaganOstia
Reddit | ZaganOstia

Introducing the newest horror icon, Knuckle Head! His headbutts really pack a punch!

“We were on the end of a dart game and my friend just throw his dart into the reset button.”

Image credit: Reddit | RIQUELI
Reddit | RIQUELI

If you’re as bad at darts as I am, then you’re not going to want to have any of the buttons that close to the actual board. In fact, you’re not going to want to even be standing near me, I am truly, truly awful.

“You are about to make a mistake.”

Image credit: Reddit | ShetlandJames
Reddit | ShetlandJames

There are moments in everyone’s life where you’re drunk and think, “This will be hilarious!” On behalf of your future self, it will not be hilarious!

“Rented Birds of Prey… rental expired with around 10 min left in the movie.”

Image credit: Reddit | Ba8ou
Reddit | Ba8ou

Apparently, the person who rented it had thought that it was a 48-hour rental that they had paid for, but alas it was not. Would you have had to hunt down the last ten minutes, or would you have just given up?

“Washed my favourite jumper.”

Image credit: Reddit | KarenFromAccounts
Reddit | KarenFromAccounts

You’re going to want to pop that jumper in some rice and that will sort it right out.

“My uncles made a mistake installing a new rain gutter…”

Image credit: Reddit | bobward
Reddit | bobward

Well, on the plus side, they’ll always have easy access to the gutters from now on! You can just hop up there whenever you want!

“My landlord sprayed painted this tree guard and the wind blew the paint onto this persons dodge.”

Image credit: Reddit | IJustFartedOnMyGF
Reddit | IJustFartedOnMyGF

First of all, I don’t think that is a dodge. Secondly, even if you had a video of the landlord admitting to doing this after they have done it, the landlord would still probably find a way out of paying for damages, and even charging the person who owns that car for parking too close to their paint.

“Found near my apartment.”

Image credit: Reddit | FTLOG_IAMDAVE
Reddit | FTLOG_IAMDAVE

“What are the odds! They have a bike just like the one I had stolen, how fortunate!”

“Yep, just good luck I guess.”

“Workers in my house were trying to fix old elevator’s motor, but they just dropped it.”

Image credit: Reddit | GiofilmsFan11
Reddit | GiofilmsFan11

“Going down!”

“…Jim I really don’t think this is the time for jokes, this is going to cost a fortune.”

“I guess this guy’s elevator doesn’t go to the top floor, eh!”

*Sighs

“I don’t understand how this mistake was even made.”

Image credit: Reddit | samjs45
Reddit | samjs45

I also do not understand how I managed to miss what was going on in this picture. In case you have also missed it, the laptop is the wrong way up.

Taste’s Just Like Soap!

Image credit: Reddit | ChristianComa
Reddit | ChristianComa

The internet is awash with people eating fancy-looking soaps, either by accident or on purpose; and, all I can say is, I feel vindicated for all of the times that I have eaten a fancy looking bar of soap just to try it.

“I have a second job at a flower shop. They made the mistake of letting me create the sign today.”

Image credit: Reddit | childoftheatom
Reddit | childoftheatom

Sure, it may not have the heartfelt message that a flower shop usually puts across, but it’s not wrong!

“Some guy tried to copy my tattoo artist’s work = nipple tattooed on his arm.”

Image credit: Reddit | samusxmetroid
Reddit | samusxmetroid

The old adage of “You get what you pay for” is arguably more true for tattooing than anything else!

“Some days you just wake up and think of your biggest mistake.”

Image credit: Reddit | Crono464
Reddit | Crono464

Everyone makes some bad decisions in their teenage years. I mean, who doesn’t look back through old pictures with a bit of a wince. However, it’s good to know that this person made my embarrassing teenage pictures look fly as hell!

“It was my mum’s job to buy thirty-three Easter eggs for all staff at her work, and she then made the fatal mistake of leaving them in her car all day.”

Image credit: Reddit | saltytshirt
Reddit | saltytshirt

Good lord, it looks like a horrific chocolate reenactment of the misery-fest that is Watership Down.

“I tried to grow potatoes, 10 weeks after I get this.”

Image credit: Reddit | msoto15
Reddit | msoto15

The takeaway near us has a long wait for chips to be delivered, but waiting 10 weeks is something else!

“The printer exploded…”

Image credit: Reddit | joshdyson
Reddit | joshdyson

Much like vending machines, printers are one area that technology seems to have halted. No matter where you go, printers are always breaking down.

DIY Fail

Image credit: Reddit | jetaimezombies
Reddit | jetaimezombies

I hope your cat is one hell of an acrobat!

Let me know in the comments which blunder was your personal favorite! I think the cat in the vending machine has to be mine!

“Got this in my fortune cookie today.”

Image credit: Reddit | apsierra
Reddit | apsierra

I mean I’m’ happy for you, fortune, but I was kind of hoping I’d find out something about my future. Is that selfish?

“House down the street knows how to celebrate Mother’s Day.”

Image credit: Reddit | AskamilliusReddiquis
Reddit | AskamilliusReddiquis

Either this mom has the best sense of humor ever, or three kids had a very rough evening. I’m gonna assume it’s the former though.

You Maybe Took Too Long Of A Break.

Image credit: Reddit | jolijuli
Reddit | jolijuli

What are you supposed to even do here? Move it? I’m not about to put a family through that, they didn’t pack!

“My son, the only boy in the house, is a comedian.”

Image credit: Reddit | SamiWinchester
Reddit | SamiWinchester

Sure you could just take this out, but that would be turning down a challenge, which would make you a coward. Are you a coward?

“A modern day Picasso.”

Image credit: Reddit | Boneman0101
Reddit | Boneman0101

May their art be immortalized forever. Or not, that’d be a pretty gnarly scar.

“I went to Cheesecake Factory, ordered a side of broccoli, and got this big boy.”

Image credit: Reddit | kazembe29
Reddit | kazembe29

They delivered what you ordered, which was a side of broccoli. They never said it’d be cut.

“I think my dog is planning an escape. I found his shiv.”

Image credit: Reddit | Sam_Porter
Reddit | Sam_Porter

I’m getting flashbacks to my childhood dog who would destroy every toy she got her paws on. At least this has sculpting, artistry.

“Looks like a wake for my car after my wife moved the flowers into the garage to protect them from a freeze.”

Image credit: Reddit | upandattem
Reddit | upandattem

“It was a good car, that had a long, happy life. May we remember all the miles driven and car washes had.”

“Decided to get some things checked off my To-Do list.”

Image credit: Reddit | ThanksALotTrump
Reddit | ThanksALotTrump

In your defense, drinking that beer probably was on your to-do list. That’s a task finished! I think that calls for a break.

Not-So-Happy Easter.

Image credit: Reddit | drak0bsidian
Reddit | drak0bsidian

Oh he looks mad. Like, incredibly insulted that you would dare demean him with such attire. This Easter will bring vengeance.

“My son found some ‘stickers’ in the bathroom.”

Image credit: Reddit | GreedyJester
Reddit | GreedyJester

I gotta wonder if the hairdryer was part of this. Like he was heat-bonding them to the wall, hoping they’d stick forever.

“Someone stole the wheels off our recycling bin.”

Image credit: Reddit | FortniteBRyeet
Reddit | FortniteBRyeet

Why? Just why? How desperate could someone possibly be for a par of wheely bin wheels? Just buy some if you really need them for whatever bizarre reason!

“Fergus after the 20th trail walk of the week.”

Image credit: Reddit | francisco_flores
Reddit | francisco_flores

Poor Fergus is looking for a literal break. It’ll be a while before he’s excited for walks again.

“I have lost one piece of this 2000 pieces puzzle.”

Image credit: Reddit | Voytaouta
Reddit | Voytaouta

And so began a quest across the seven seas to locate the missing piece of the puzzle. Or, they just put it back in the box and gave it to a charity shop.
