These People Had Luck So Bad It Was Literally Staring Them Right In The Face
I think it's fair to say that we could all probably use a bit of extra luck right about now. Whether it's with love, money, or some other third thing, we're all in need of a four-leaf clover.
These people found four-leaf clovers all right, but their clovers just happened to be on fire. So the next time you accidentally spill coffee on your shirt, just think of these unlucky people.
Say Cheese!
Imagine getting all dolled up for your yearly class photo and this is the picture you see staring back at you in the school yearbook.
The photographer couldn't have chosen the eyes of a student who didn't look stoned out of his mind?
Chocolate Isn't Supposed To Make Me Sad
What you're looking at is a box full of sadness. This person received what is supposed to be a "Snickers Yard"—aka three feet worth of full-sized Snickers bars. But instead, the box is only 2/3 full.
Why have you betrayed me, chocolate?
On A Pin And A Prayer
Whether you sleep in or spill coffee on yourself, it always seems like the most unlucky things happen right before important work meetings. Case in point, this man with a busted pants zipper.
That is a hell of a lot of trust to put into three safety pins.
When You Empathize With A Christmas Tree
This Redditor decided to put up a real evergreen tree in his living room for the holidays, but he sadly laments that the tree just couldn't make it until the big day.
Aww, cheer up, Christmas tree. Like you, we're also all dead inside.
Time To Order A Pizza, I Guess
This person spent six hours preparing homemade butter chicken in a slow cooker and then came home to this culinary catastrophe, courtesy of his roommate's hungry dog.
Considering how spicy Indian food is, this dog's digestive system is about to have a really bad time.
Peanut Butter The Pony
I want you to meet Peanut Butter the pony. Peanut Butter somehow got stuck inside a child-sized swing and his owner lamented how she's now "going to be late for work."
Although I don't know who's unluckier in this scenario: Peanut Butter, or the poor owner who somehow has to get him out of the swing.
The Death Of Snow Days
Hot chocolate, building snowmen, having snowball fights, and sledding...snow days really were magical days.
But oh no, virtual learning has now ruined that. This is your life now, kids.
2021, Dammit, 2022
With the turn of every calendar comes New Year's parties and resolutions. It also brings along this BS.
I think it's fair to say that this unlucky yearly mishap is something that afflicts every one of us.
Oh Snow
Whether you drive or take transit, commuting during the winter is a nightmare—just ask this person.
This was the sight that greeted one passenger as they prepared to disembark, and let's just say we hope they're wearing good snow boots.
Crime Does Indeed Not Pay
This man decided to test the universe (and his luck) with his latest forehead tattoo and got handed a harsh lesson in "irony," courtesy of this mugshot.
If you get a brazen tattoo emblazoned on your forehead that says "Crime Pays," it's like you're just begging for the cops to arrest you.
$800 Worth Of Disappointment
This person ventured out into the Minnesotan winter one night to sell their iPad to a prospective buyer, but now they're out $800.
Due to darkness, they failed to notice the text on the left-hand side that says these $100 bills are actually replicas. Even Ben Franklin's face says, "You done goofed up."
Calm Down, Elsa
You know it's quite cold outside when—despite your furnace working overtime—frost begins forming on the inside of your bedroom.
This is what one frostbitten resident saw when the temperatures dipped to -49 Fahrenheit.
Doggy Misdeeds
Digital camera memory cards are capable of holding thousands of photographs, but by the way Fido here thought this card was a chew toy, we're not sure how many of those photos will actually be salvageable.
"Joke's on you, most pics in that card are yours," the dog owner wrote. Guess Fido is a little camera shy.
Three (Thousand)'s A Crowd
One airline traveler genuinely thought that arriving two hours before their flight would be enough time to clear security—and then they were greeted by this sight.
This crowded scene is legitimately my nightmare on any usual day, throw in a global health crisis and I'd rather walk to my destination.
What A Sight To Behold
This travel enthusiast purchased a pair of binoculars so he could gaze at the wonders of the Grand Canyon.
But as luck would have it (or rather a lack of luck), he probably should have checked the weather forecast first.
A Stairway To Nowhere
Anyone who's ever undergone a home renovation knows that for days or weeks their home will be in utter shambles. And that's what this one person learned the hard way because their dad forgot to tell them contractors were taking out the stairs that day.
I hope they have some Olympic-level jumping skills.
Supermarket Substitutions
For many people nowadays, online ordering and curbside pickup is a new favorite way to collect a purchase without physically going into a store.
But it seems like the employee behind this Walmart click-and-collect order is a big fan of cheese and less so on sugary cereals. Which is bad news for this Froot Loop-less customer.
A Cabin In The Woods
Imagine saving money for years to buy your dream home in a quiet part of the woods when suddenly a tobacco store opens across the road and lights the beacons—straight into your face.
This couple could probably use some blackout curtains.
No Wheel Drive
About to start their day, this would-be driver noticed that all four tires on their car had been stolen and they weren't going anywhere anytime soon.
So keep that in mind the next time you're complaining about being stuck in rush hour traffic. At least you're not this guy.
Unlucky At 35,000 Feet
Just think, out of all the available flights to your destination and all the possible seats on the airplane, this is the person who's sitting in front of you.
Time to break out the tiny bottles of booze and make the best of this flight.
That Seems Like A Good Reason To Call In
This person left the window open in their office and then went home for the weekend.
When they came back, it was covered in snow...they should totally get to go home, right?
Just Stay Inside Forever
This kid went to the doctor's for an allergy test and found out that they are allergic to literally everything.
They might as well just stay inside forever...unless the stuff inside is what's making them sick.
"Make Bread" They Said
This person did what many of us have done the last year and attempted to make some homemade bread.
They were told to leave it in the fridge overnight to rise...look how that turned out.
That's Going To Take Forever
They dropped the beans and then had to spend the rest of their shift sorting the coffee beans by hand!
It probably took more than one shift because that's a lot of beans.
What Kind Of Monster Does This?
This seems like it was some kind of power move.
Who would drink a whole bottle of pickle juice and leave the pickles if not to strike fear into the heart of someone?
Is This The Prequel To Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds?
I don't like birds. Their claws, beaks, and wings all freak me out, especially after I watched the Hitchcock film.
Everyone says that I'm being ridiculous, but here is visual proof that birds are evil.
Lawn Care Should Not Be This Hard!
Picture this: your wife has been asking you to mow the lawn all week, despite the fact that it definitely could wait another few days before needing to be cut.
You give in and go start up the machine only for this to happen.
"I Didn't Realize This Is What You Meant When You Said I Won An Award..."
'Most likely to' awards are normally an honor to receive, or even just be nominated — there's most likely to succeed, most likely to become a fashion model, etc.
Instead, this guy was voted for the meanest prize of all time.
It Was A Calculated Decision, The Driver Was Just Bad At Math
There are a few times in life where you just need to take the risk on good faith and hope that things work out in your favor, but I probably wouldn't try gambling if I was this driver.
You can't gamble with a transport truck.
Use The Wall Mount, They Said...
You know, mounting the flat-screen to the wall probably seemed like a good idea initially and didn't even seem hard to install. A really easy DIY job, one might even think.
That was incorrect.
