The one thing no one wants to have is a bad day . After all, why would anyone want to go through a series of inconveniences or tragic events? Too bad they’re kind of inevitable at times.
Whether you’re day is going kind of badly, or you’re doing pretty okay, you have to admit that these people may just have it worse.
“I’ve been patiently waiting for my new plant pots to arrive.”
I’m definitely one of those people that really love getting packages in the mail. But even if you aren’t, you’d probably get really disappointed if this happened to you. Those poor, poor plant pots.
“I was scraping off the front window when I thought I heard ice and snow sliding off the back window. It was not snow or ice.”
This is a legitimate fear of mine every time I have to scrape ice off the car windshield. I don’t envy the person who has to deal with this.
“Doing 110km/h (70mp/h) and this happened. Lucky I only had my 36 week pregnant wife, my 2 year old son and our 2 dogs in the car.”
Nothing like cruising down the highway, only to get a flat tire and scare the living daylights out of your whole family. On the plus side, it doesn’t seem like anyone got hurt…
“Still going to eat this cake.”
There are very few things in this world that are worse than that feeling you get when you drop a piece of cake. Especially if you’ve been looking forward to that cake all day. Truly a tragedy.
“A person left their penguin plush toy at the airport seats.”
I feel bad for the poor kid who realized a little too late that they left their penguin plush at the airport. They’re never going to see it again. How utterly upsetting.
“Been waiting for my diploma since November when I finished my Master’s degree. Came in the mail bent.”
After all the time, effort, money, and stress you have to go through to get a master’s degree, you’d at least hope the parchment would come in one piece. I guess the suffering doesn’t stop when you hand in your last assignment…
“Headphones finally gave out this morning…”
Sadly, headphones don’t last forever. And the day your favorite pair is broken beyond repair is never a good day.
Time to save up for a new (and hopefully nicer) set to replace it.
“Keys and key fob are in the ignition with motor running and I somehow Hulked the handle off my car door. Other doors are locked, no spare keys.”
I guess sometimes we don’t know our own strength. I’m not saying this is the reason why I don’t leave my car with the keys still in the ignition, but it’s definitely a reason.
“My friend was cooking a frozen pizza.”
Something tells me that this friend didn’t know they were supposed to put the pizza on a pan before putting it in the oven… After all, this could’ve been avoided pretty easily. Good luck cleaning it up.
“Happy Wednesday… sigh.”
I feel like a lot of us would be lost without our morning coffees, iced or otherwise. So you just know that, if you spill your whole iced coffee on the ground, the rest of your day probably isn’t going to go well.
“Ordered and waited for this book (used, ‘well kept’) for over a month and it came wet full of mold.”
Technically speaking, “well kept” doesn’t specifically mean it’s mold-free. But that should kind of go without saying. Either way, this is pretty disgusting, and also confusing. How does a book get so moldy?
“My daughter accidentally left candy out and our dog ate it. She left this present on our fairly newly cleaned carpet.”
I don’t know who I feel worse for, the poor dog who ate the candy, or the person who had to clean this mess. I’m sure no one in this house was having a good day, not even the dog.
“First day back to college and the hot chocolate machine had ants inside it.”
That’s super upsetting. And, like, one of the last things you’d ever expect to find in a hot chocolate machine. There are definitely worse hot chocolate surprises, but this could’ve been a lot better, too.
“My TV fell off the rail and did this to my wall.”
If this is what the wall looks like, I’d hate to see the TV…
RELATED STORIES
Apparently, OP’s friend is the one who installed the TV, and forgot to put anchors in the wall. I wouldn’t trust that person to do any repairs in my house, that’s for sure.
“The beautiful snow shown on my driveway below has taken down multiple trees and power lines in my area, including mine. I have no power and it’s going to be 13f (-10c) tonight.”
It sucks how something so pretty like snow can also be really dangerous. I swear, snow and ice do more harm than good most of the time.
“Just got home from a rushed trip to Home Depot and found this in my bag.”
I feel bad for the poor cashiers who have to deal with this now. Luckily, the scanner’s pretty much useless once it’s out of range, but trying to figure out where it went is a real pain.
“‘Hi, I’m calling to start a claim -my car is flooded… oh, I don’t have flood coverage? In that case, it’s on fire.'”
A flood is bad enough. A car on fire is bad enough. But both things happening at the same time? That’s, like, a whole new level of bad luck. Hopefully they have really good insurance…
“My credit card started getting random charges this week. One of the items purchased arrived to our house today and my boyfriend sent a photo. I present to you the $80 spork.”
Yeah, there’s really nothing good about identity theft. Luckily, OP’s credit card company helped out with all the charges and stuff. And, uh, looks like they get to keep the spork?
“When it’s your stop and the doors open to this.”
I guess it’s safe to say you just get off at the next stop. Or, maybe you never get off the train. You’re stuck there forever (or until the snow gets plowed, or melts).
“The cake cut my knife in two…”
The internet is such an amazing place. Sometimes, it shows us things you never would’ve thought were possible. Like a knife blade that got split in two after being used to cut a cake! Amazing!
OP never says what kind of cake it was, but my guess is on ice cream cake.
