In this busy world of ours, it's easy for things to slip through the cracks. Maybe a pole gets installed wrong here, or some road signage gets misspelled there. Many of us would look at these and say "we better fix that" but another great many of us say "good enough." The resulting impressively unprofessional "Not My Job" moments are indeed good enough, but in a different kind of way.

It's weird that we're surrounded by people all the time, but it's against social convention to have a meaningful relationship with any of them. As rare as it is, people will take time out of their lives to make more of an impact than being just a face in the crowd. Some of these interactions are strange encounters, others are wholesome, but the one thing they all are is memorable.

If you've worked in the service industry you've likely encountered that aggressively disagreeable customer who refuses to reach a solution; and ultimately asks for the manager. These are the glorious stories of the moment they realized they were already talking to the manager. 

Puns may be the simplest form of humor, but sometimes simple things are great. Are puns sometimes teeth-chatteringly painful to read? Absolutely. But sometimes they're really clever. These ones can be a mixed bag. For another kind of bag of dad jokes, here's another sackful of puns to spill all over.

These instances might remind you that you're actually doing pretty well for yourself in the whole brain department. Hot damn, it's like life is a race to see who can do the dumbest thing ever. We absolutely love it. And boy people are dumb a lot.

It should be known by now that we enjoy mocking other people's misforunte - and as schadenfreude goes, these amusing tales are pretty lighthearted. When Twitter user @lillyannatrnr shared a facepalm-worthy serving anecdote from her boyfriend's past, we're willing to bet she didn't think she was starting a thread of epic proportions. But his ignorance regarding creme fraiche and the laughs that followed inspired other users to share their own food-service and grocery work blunders. The result? A massive thread of funny fails and punny verbal comedy. We've picked out some of the better gems for you, but you can see more hilarity at the thread itself.

Sometimes bad things happen for a reason. On Wednesday, this was definitely the case. Twitter user @cheenadiabla shared a photo of a tray of mashed potatoes she had dropped on the floor. The dish had been intended for a potluck, but she quickly said "f*ck it." While she was probably expecting sympathy from her followers, they instead delivered a whole lot of scathing reviews of her admittedly terrible looking mashed potatoes. While she took it in stride, admitting it was her first time preparing the dish, some of the roastsare downright mean - and downright hilarious.
