We all live pretty different lives, but one thing we have in common is the fact that annoying things happen, like, all the time. I think it’s safe to say we all have annoying experiences .
This list, of course, is gonna show you just how relatable everyone’s lives are. It really doesn’t take much for a perfectly normal day to be ruined.
“Was woodworking a ring and checked the size. Now it isn’t coming off.”
Sure, we may not all be woodworkers, but I’d be lying if I said I’ve never gotten a ring stuck on my finger before. It’s not fun, especially when it just won’t come off no matter what. Hang in there!
“Bought the nicest car I’ve ever had two days ago. Just found this.”
The good thing about buying a brand new car is that it doesn’t have someone else’s stink in it. But new cars are perfect… until they aren’t. Maybe going used is better after all, because you won’t be as disappointed to find a nail in your tire then.
“Shirt decided to tear itself open at the start of my night out.”
I’ve never ripped a shirt before, but I did once accidentally rip my pants at work once. Luckily no one noticed, but it was still a very uncomfortable shift to get through.
“Before bed, right after I’d cleaned up and had a shower, this overpriced chocolate powder exploded upon opening.”
Just like ripping your shirt or getting a nail stuck in your brand new tire, this hurts. Ruining something that you just got the way you like it (like your clean, bed-ready self) is super unfun.
“Had a kitchen fire less than a week before hosting Thanksgiving. No injuries to human or animal, and the house is still there. Overall could’ve been much worse.”
Losing your kitchen to a fire? Now that’s just annoying and awful. Having it happen right before you’re supposed to host a family get-together makes it about 50 times worse, though.
“I passed out in the parking lot of the emergency room, and they sent an ambulance to take me 15 feet.”
There had to have been a better way to get this person into the hospital. Like, couldn’t the paramedics just dragged them in or something? Or, like, couldn’t they do it for no charge? What a waste?
“‘Sorry, your parcel has been unexpectedly delayed…'”
I feel bad for people who live out in the middle of nowhere and can’t get deliveries easily. I feel worse for the delivery drivers that have to attempt to get their packages out there, though. Must be rough.
“Our dog got into motor oil, then walked though the whole house looking for us.”
Look, this dog isn’t to blame. It’s the motor oil’s fault. How dare that motor oil get all over the poor little doggo, which then made said doggo walk around the house looking for its owners?
“Never let Walmart deliver glass jars of soup to your house. And never let the post office handle it.”
I feel like some things just shouldn’t be delivered. You know how boxes will sometimes say “handle with care?” You just know the people processing the delivery aren’t doing that. Especially not with glass jars.
“Husband left work to find his car like this.”
I have to admit, I have no idea what would be in a car’s steering wheel to make it appealing to robbers. Are steering wheels a hot black market item? Why go through all the trouble?
“Dropped my cereal on the floor. Made my already pathetic dinner even worse.”
Yeah, cereal definitely isn’t the dinner of champions. But dropping it all over the floor only makes matters worse. It’s basically impossible for your day to get better after having this happen to you.
“Toast it is.”
…On second thought, I think I’d rather have my cereal all fall on the floor. Like, either way you aren’t going to be able to drink it. But in this case, it’s for a way more disgusting reason. Spiders.
“Lowe’s delivered our new BBQ today.”
See, this is when I’d start calling the store and asking to speak to the manager (which is something I’m genuinely afraid of doing). But man, that barbecue is banged up! Definitely not worth full price.
“Paid a local friend to patch broken concrete. This is the end result.”
Sometimes, it’s worth paying someone you aren’t friends with to do things for you. As much as we want to believe our friends are good at their jobs, they aren’t always. And talking to them about how badly they messed up is going to be super awkward.
“Told the cake shop owner to put some candles along with the cake.”
I don’t know why following instructions is so difficult for some cake decorators. It’s like they hear the words you’re saying and decide to just do their own thing instead. Why would anyone want the word “candle” on a cake!?
“Got my lunch stolen.”
I don’t know what’s worse: the fact that this person’s sandwich got pilfered, or the fact that they were able to take a picture of the exact moment. It’s like adding insult to injury.
“Guess who ran out of paint…”
Getting so close to finishing a room, only to run out of paint in the last few square feet? That’s just cruel. On the plus side, a sample size paint container should be enough to finish the job.
“Was walking in with donuts I bought the team at work…”
Let us take a moment to honor our fallen comrades. These donuts were meant for so much more than being dropped all over a gross parking lot. But they’ll never get to live up to their true potential now…

“New roommate just moved in and are already using my favorite mug as a lard cup”
This sounds like the beginning of a beautiful friendship. By beautiful, I mean horrible. And by friendship, I mean arch enemies for life. I’d be looking for a new roommate, to be honest.
“My Gf asked me why I was up at 3am last night, so I made her this helpful diagram to explain.”
The worst part about sharing a bed with a partner is that they will always hog all of the blankets. No matter how many you have on the bed. It’s inevitable.
