bad product

Every day, people birth new stupid design failures that need some help. Whether it's a useless fence, an accidentally dirty sign, directions that make no sense or just a misplaced toilet, we're grateful for them all. These were design fails were someone's one job, but we doubt many will admit to doing them.

People are asked to make stuff all the time, and sometimes there's more stress that something gets done than if it gets done well. That can lead to some pretty dumb design fails that didn't go as planned. Every day someone does a bad job, and every day there are more design failures that didn't work out.

Ideally, the buyer/seller relationship should be one where upfront sellers provide a valuable product or service to people who are happy to pay for it. This is often not the case. In reality it can be a one-sided war between companies and consumers, with companies trying every underhanded tactic they can come up with to inconvenience, scare and manipulate their own customers into overpaying for horrible products. Seriously, these products and ads were designed by jerks.

We've all been woo'd by a good commercial at some point in our lives. Especially when you're a kid, Nerf really makes it look like having a sweet blaster will make you the coolest kid on the street. We've all gone crazy at some point for those ads for laser tag games and frozen drink makers, and many of us never learn and keep making stupid purchases far into our adult years. That said, this isn't always our fault, sometimes products are straight up misleading and manipulative.

If you don't get a fresh eyes to review your work, you can end of with some really not good signs and designs. Whether they're completely nonfunctional or end up being accidentally filthy, the world is full of design fails that need some time to better themselves.

If you're into stupidly redundant construction decisions,  shirts that accidentally say "anus," or signs for businesses that also accidentally say "anus" than you've come to the right place. Let's be real, some design can use some extra thought, and some of it, like these magazine layout fails, are freakin awesome.

Why wouldn't you want to purchase hundreds of ladybugs? Seriously, what could possibly go wrong? Here's a bunch of things that people, for whatever reason, decided they only ever needed to buy once.
