Trouble foreseen is trouble avoided but predicting those troubles is basically an uphill task. Sometimes it’s the smallest thing that can spoil your mood, while other times, it’s a bunch of fails and fiascos that manage to chase you throughout the day. At these moments, it’s important to remember that no one is insured against such fails and that any of them can become a funny story to laugh at together with friends.
We at Bright Side are sure that even the most awful fails can be treated with some humor. But still, we can’t help but empathize with the people in this article that suffered some serious misfortune.
1. A guy purchased a watermelon at a train stop but didn’t realize it wouldn’t fit through the bars.
2. “One of these is applesauce. One of these is grease from a deep fryer. Guess which one I ate a spoonful of a few minutes ago!”
3. “I spent a little too much time outside while wearing cropped pants.”
4. “Well, the delivery service finally brought me my TV stand with tempered glass shelves.”
5. “Just one of those days...”
6. “I was eating while driving so I wasn’t paying attention. Got most of the way through when I realized the chicken was 100% raw.”
7. “No one is happy here.”
8. “One time, we decided to bake a cake. We read a bunch of various recipes and spent a lot of energy to finally get this.”
9. “Now that it’s getting warm, I finally found my missing beanie.”
10. “My plum tree decided that it was all too much.”
11. “The cabinet fell off the wall while I was out. The handmade dishes I’ve collected over the years are now shattered. The cabinet also knocked open the fridge door and ruined all my food.”
12. Somebody will have a terrible day...
13. “My glass shower door shattered for no reason in the middle of the night.”
14. “A customer ordered all this food through an app and canceled the order the moment I finished making everything.”

16. “Traveled to Norway from Florida, spent 4 hours climbing Pulpit Rock in 40-degree weather with rain to be blessed with this.”
17. “My 7-year-old did a lot of chores to save up for this game. He tripped and fell on his way to put it in for the first time.”
18. That’s why you should never use your phone while driving, even if what you’re steering is a bike.
