15 Funniest Fails Presented as a Random Assortment of Candidly Wacky Pics

There are times we'd rather not get specific. In fact, most of the time we spend on the internet is done while mindlessly scrolling, clicking on random stuff, and finding ourselves in the depths of the WWW… There are rabbit holes that are better left unfound, and there are others that are sent by the internet gods (AKA the algorithm) as a blessing. Depending on how much we liked the rabbit hole we encountered, we may or may not pay it a revisit. The subreddit r/funny is a great example of a tim…

'There was definitely an elephant in the room': Landlord forces company to abandon building in one week, cue malicious compliance

Landlords are the worst! As the OP shared in this delicious tale of malicious compliance , this business triumphed over their landlord with excellent results. As the OP shared to r/maliciouscompliance, the story starts in 2020, and the OP later added updates to share what the landlord's reaction was. As they tell it, the company was renting a space when the 2020 madness hit. The company was an entertainment site, so of course, no one could be inside for quite some time. Then, the landlord of th…

‘You Get What You Pay for’ : Company Dodges Corporate Client’s Gaslighting/Manipulation via Malicious Compliance, Leading To Project’s Ultimate Demise

Clients who try to gaslight you might want to think twice about leaving a paper trail, as that ultimately defeats the purpose of gaslighting. This particular client in question has a long list of faults, such as unreasonable expectations, refusal to listen to logic (they don't adhere to the universal laws of physics apparently), and pulling the classic shocked Pikachu face when presented with proof of their own incompetence. You can't just expect to be a top-priority client without paying for w…

‘Did You Block Me?’ : 18 Best Dating App Fails of the Week for the Tired Crowd

‘It’s just so convenient' is the go-to answer you give to people when they ask why you're using dating apps. Of course, the only people who would have the audacity to ask this question are the couples that have been chained to each other's ankles since middle school and take pride in the fact they are a living example of ‘real, true love’ (yuck). Behind the scenes nobody really knows what's going on. Tinder is easy enough to use, and feels like a practical way to get to know people because let'…

'Google Street View driver: You're all alone for 8+ hours a day': 25+ Jobs that seem extra fun, but don't live up to the hype

Who knew that being a park ranger or a background actor in a film wouldn't be fun jobs? There are so many jobs in the world, but some are certainly way more entertaining than others. I've always thought a great job would be to test ice cream , which is a real career! However, I imagine you'd get sick of eating ice cream pretty fast. That's the thing with these jobs — even if it's something you might do for fun on your day off, having to do something every single day can get monotonous really qu…

'You sure mate? It's a lotta sand': Australian Builder rudely refuses to notify contacts of his new number, ends up with a whole lotta sand where he doesn't want it

When you change your phone number you should probably do your due diligence and let people who are likely to contact you know that there is a new way to do so. Otherwise, whatever poor sod ends up with your old number is just going to be inundated with requests to reach you. This is especially true if you're operating a business or doing something that fields a high volume of phone calls. But, if you ended up with my old number, it would never even be an issue; I don't stay in contact with anyo…

We all know someone who is practical to the extent that they don't believe in miracles of any kind.

Sometimes you just luck out, and it's kind of unexplainable. Call it a flux, coincidence, or fate — either way, the facts that stare you in the face are undeniable.

'I should be getting overtime each time I pick up the phone': Employee demands to be paid for any calls they take outside of work hours

You can tell the hypocrisy of a management decision by how quickly it gets swept under the rug when someone calls them out. A similar phenomenon happens when a bad decision is made; everyone tells them that it is bad. They don't listen until it's too late and then pretend that nothing happened when the inevitable fallout occurs. The phenomenally named Reddit user u/juicybuttfarts, had the former scenario occur when they were told they would have to start paying for their personal phone calls on…

Cowboys and cowgirls are giddyupping faster than the world can follow, chugging sweet tea, room temperature beers, and yeehawing all the way to the Whataburger.

The Lone Star State has an insane vibe that the rest of the country just can't match. Their blood is pickle juice , their trucks are tall, and they will always– ALWAYS– re…
