messes

Life has it's conventional and sometimes expected lows, like getting fired or missing the bus, but sometimes it has refreshingly unconventional mishaps. Sometimes you're having a decently fine breakfast and a bat flies into your food. Sometimes you're tire is flattened not by a screw but by a throwing star. It's a reminder that oftentimes, uneventful days aren't bad days.

There's something about strange and specific mishaps that have the power to put things in perspective. Even if it's a boring day, you can make that day seem slightly better when you realize you probably didn't have paint explode in your living room or a boulder land on your car.

Sure, cats can be friendly and affectionate, but sometimes it becomes clear that you're dealing with an animal that has no concept of empathy and can't comprehend why a jug of tomato sauce should stay on a counter. To compliment their pampered hypocrisy, here's Tumblr agreeing that cats talk like disparaged victorian children, and this history of how cats became domesticated.

Unfortunate things happen all the time, but they usually fall under the category of "typical crap that happens to everybody." Here are some unfortunate moments of failure and chaos that you don't really expect, like 10,000 cracked eggs or a Frisbee in your windshield.

Don't get too comfortable when things are going well, because life just might hit you hard with unfortunate failures and moments of chaos. Someone could fall through your roof, your car could get hit with a rogue coconut, and a dog could eat your shoes. There are limitless possibilities when it comes to unfortunate moments and chaos.

They get into your stuff, ruin your things and draw on the dog. Sometimes kids are weird and dumb in a funny way, but other times they're dumb in a destructive and frustrating way. From the huge messes to the irrational meltdowns, it's better for some people to not have to deal with parenting.

Just when things are going well, someone falls through the ceiling. You can never be too sure how things will go wrong next, but one thing's for sure and that's that the universe will never run out of ways to screw people over. Unfortunate moments punctuate our lives, and add a heaping helping of chaos and failure.

There's no question that kids are stupid creatures. We don't hate them, we're just impartial enough to acknowledge that they're dumb little idiots who make a lot of stupid mistakes, are boring to talk to, and have meltdowns over the dumbest things. Again, we do not hate children. That said, they are in fact, a hassle, as the following images go to show.

Some days are worse than others. Most likely, your day was good enough that you can find some comfort in seeing how comically worse it was for someone else.

Just goes to show that at any given moment, you're at the mercy of the universe. Especially if you've already messed up your day through your own devices.

You may be having a bad day. But at least you didn't run a cargo ship into another cargo ship. Most Likely.

What we're trying to say is, maybe your mediocre day has actually been a pretty good day in disguise. Here's some people who have without a  doubt gone through a rough patch.
