There will be things in your life which happen that you simply cannot avoid. However, there are also things which happen that are very easily avoidable that you somehow manage to do anyway!
From catastrophic amounts of dropped food, to suicidal bananas, please enjoy these 15+ times that we were late to the game.
RELATED STORIES
“This is what defeat looks like.”
It is good to see that this person’s cat is “helping” in the same way that my cat would likely “help”…by eating the food I had dropped.
“Rather unusual movie title.”
I very much like this sign. However, instead of putting up a sign saying this, could they not have spent their time doing it themselves?
“Some moms never think it’s too late for baby pics.”
In fairness, he does look incredibly peaceful here! Still distracted by the fact that he likes Modelo though… Just, how?
“The X-Mas cakes just arrived… a little late, thanks post office.”
Someone did point out, however, that with all of the mold they now look nice and snowy, which really captures the Christmas spirit!
“Honesty in safety warnings.”
This is genius, and I can’t believe that I’ve never seen anyone else do something like this before. Something like this will never get old.
“Don’t say we didn’t warn you.”
Anyone who underestimates a goose deserves all of the punishment enacted upon them. Only fools underestimate geese.
“My bananas look like they hung themselves.”
If only this person had taken more time to ask his bananas how they were doing and if there was anything they needed. Too late now though I guess.
“Live. Local. Late Braking.”
“Hi Joe. We’re reporting on a crash that has just taken place. We were, fortunately, the first on the scene…”
“How’d you manage that?”
“…luck.”
“But no warnings about leopards…?”
I mean, at least if you’re killed by a leopard then it’s not as embarrassing as being killed by a falling deer, right?
“Friend went to Italy. Posted a picture of ancient ruins.”
And yes, it was apparently still operational when this was taken. One of the last bastions of the ’90s clinging onto days gone by.
“My neighbor has a turbine with a bad bearing, it’s obnoxiously loud. He went to go check it out because it’s been real quiet lately…”
I reckon that the person who posted this was the one who shot it in an attempt to silence the d**n thing.
“A Good Warning.”
I dread to think how many times someone drove into that bridge before they felt the need to put this sign up!
“Am I late or early?”
It’s rare that you can be considered both late and early for something at the same time, and yet they’ve somehow managed it.
“I kicked over my cats milk and had no replacement. He sat opposite me as I ate my dinner looking at me like this.”
Someone pointed out that cats closing their eyes is usually a sign of trust and affection. If that’s the case, then maybe the person who posted this needs to start getting their cat some milk they actually like in the future.
“When you’re late for work and forget to feed the king.”
Jesus, look how angry that cat is! It doesn’t even matter if you feed him now, he’s never going to forget this!
“This don’t drink and drive warning.”
They’ve clearly realized that people who do drink and drive are just a******s and should be spoken to as such!
“Is this thing supposed to look like me?”
I think it’s actually not too bad of a likeness! That is one h**l of a miserable looking cat, and I doubt they’re going to be too happy about this present.
“Any one from Amazon missing a glove?”
You know that this guy probably saw himself do this but just couldn’t be bothered to repackage the thing so he just sent it.
“They’ve been warned.”
No one ever thinks that they will find themselves threatening to p**p in someone else’s lawn. However, sometimes things just prove too much for even the calmest individual.
“Warning To All Crows.”
Well, I have only one thing to say back to this, quite frankly. And that thing is, “Caw, caw-caw-caw, cawww!”
“11 yr old daughter drew this. Looks like she’s got the future work-week figured out.”
I didn’t realize the true terror of Sunday night until I started working at Costa. Mondays were always h**l in there. Actually, so was every day, every single moment of having to pretend to care about the general public’s arsey beverages.
“Coworker said I always look suspicious. I was confused why she would think that, then remembered I have looked like this since a baby.”
Now that is a baby that has something to hide! They’ve definitely made a mess somewhere or eaten something they shouldn’t have!
“I told you not to mess with the bees!”
Just a heads up: If your cat looks like this, then, dear God, you need to take it to the vet immediately!
“I’m sure people got the message…”
“Do you think that we should put the hole in a little deeper because of the loose sand?”
“Who told you about the loose sand? What loose sand?”
“Have you read the sign, Dave?”
“Uh… thanks for the warning?”
I mean, the red bar on the screen would indicate that this may not actually be the case?
“Lately the bird food has been disappearing from the container inexplicably. We just found the culprit.”
You can just see it sitting in there thinking, “Right, it’s okay. You’re very cute so there’s a way out of this to be had!”
“Owl attacks have been on the rise at a local park. Warning signs have now been put in place.”
Look, I b****y love owls! However, they’ve got incredibly sharp talons, and if they want you gone, they’ll do a h**l of a good job of chasing you away!
“Warning!”
“Excuse me, but I think that your horse might be dead…”
“For the last time, he’s not dead! He’s just asleep! If you look then… Oh, wait no. He’s dead as h**l.”
“Missed my Master’s graduation because of Aerosinusitis and rushed to emergency room. Here’s my dad handing me my insurance papers pretending to graduate me.”
The actual scenario aside, that is the most dad-looking dad I’ve ever seen. I bet he can barbeque a mean steak.
“Housemate put this sign on our door after Amazon repeatedly posted ‘sorry we missed you’ cards whilst we were home.”
I understand the anger and the need for snark so you can get your feelings out, but I promise you that no delivery person will want to listen to you with this type of tone.
“It’s the small things that make being a parent so rewarding.”
Hasn’t this kid ever heard of posting privately about hating your parents on your horribly designed blog where your other emo friends agree with you? Or did we have different childhoods?
“I could never game because of my toddler son so I finally bought a play pen.”
Looks at that baby’s face. “Finally,” he’s thinking, “That guy’s finally out of my hair. Now he can’t stop me from eating all of my toys.”
“Today my Nana showed me some of her favorite websites.”
The only thing funnier than a grandparent who doesn’t understand technology is a grandparent who only sort of understands technology.
“My dad thought he was home alone. I had to see why he was laughing so hard.”
Who said it needed to be Halloween to dress up in a costume? Sometimes you just want a dinosaur companion to ride around on during a normal Thursday afternoon.
“Seems legit.”
Could a reptile get a tattoo the way a human can? I feel like it’d be a lot harder for a tattoo machine to get under their…scales.
“My grandpa doesn’t trust his new Roomba so he’s been following it around.”
I would love to know what exactly this man thinks a Roomba could get up to behind his back? Miss a spot? Run into a chair?
“Here’s the solar eclipse for those who missed it.”
Wow, photographers these days are able to capture so much detail in something so far away! It’s incredible!
“My son put his growing dinosaur in a glass that was too small for it, so the head stayed small.”
One day archaeologists are going to find a dinosaur skeleton shaped like this, and then your son will truly have the last laugh.
“After 29 years of not receiving a Christmas present from Santa, I finally found the reason why.”
Threats of violence don’t work on Santa because there’s no real way to get to his house, and good luck catching him on Christmas Eve.
“My girlfriend killed a fly in the house. I jokingly told her to put its head on a toothpick as a warning to the others. This was at my desk when I got home.”
You never know, it could be an incredibly effective warning! I hope not though, as I don’t want to have to resort to doing this in hot summers.
“I think my wife is done taking care of me while I work from home.”
There’s no time like the present to learn a valuable skill. Like cooking. Please start cooking.
“Someone wasn’t about to let a little rain ruin their nap!”
Someone pointed out that this mark looks like a pig dancing at a hoedown, and now I can’t unsee it!
