From time to time, the world starts to look like a burning trash can, and it seems that all other problems have to wait their turn. But, unfortunately, it works exactly the opposite, and trouble rarely comes alone. The heroes of our article, like no one else, know how a seemingly ordinary day can turn into an extremely unsuccessful one. None of these people expected that wild boars would dig up their lawns, that a real cobra would not let them into their homes, and that a hurricane would tear off the roof of their house and take it away, taking various things along the way. Well, who could have expected this? Definitely not us.
#01. “I only found out that I was allergic to hair dye after my head swelled up, and I stopped hearing in my left ear because it was also very swollen”
In the photo on the left, you can see the face of the girl (the author of the photo) before the allergic transformation. That is why it is better to try the drug on a small piece of skin first.
“A crust formed on my head, like a helmet,” the girl wrote. She also noted that it was quite a painful experience 🤕
#02. “Uploaded” the phone to the cloud
Either for a beautiful shot, or for thrills, the girl decided to lie down in a pipe made of metal mesh high in the mountains, and at some point, the phone slipped out of her pocket. By the time she realized this, it was already too late.
Reportedly, this high-altitude activity is located in Switzerland and is called Thrill Walk 📱
#03. “My mushroom knowledge sucks (the second photo was taken 6 hours later)”
Experienced fans of “quiet hunting” know that if you doubt the edibility of a mushroom, pass by. Otherwise, you risk enriching your body with dangerous toxins.
Some of the users claimed that it was a smelly fly agaric, while others said that it was white champignon (Leucoagaricus), if the first is deadly poisonous, then the edibility of the second, due to its rarity, has not yet been studied 🍄
#04. “The road marking paint fell from the truck onto this Jeep.”
Upon closer examination of the photo, you can see that, after dousing the car with paint, the driver turned on the wipers in a futile attempt to clean the windshield.
One user calculated that approximately $3,280 worth of paint spilled onto the car 🖌️
#05. More than 30 cars had flat tires on the highway due to a box of nails that fell on the road
Do not be surprised if somewhere nearby there is a shop with car tires, which is owned by a very enterprising person.
And on the other hand, probably somewhere at that moment one perplexed roofer was wandering in search of a box of nails.
#06. “My grandparents’ house burned down less than a week after they paid for it. They have lived there for over 40 years. My grandfather built it all and recently boarded the whole interior with barn boards. There were also many 50-year-old plants that my grandmother inherited from her mother.”
“They were in a hurry to go on vacation, and Grandpa decided to take the iguana with him so that no one would have to be burdened with caring for her until they were at home. He removed a ceramic heating lamp (not emitting light) from the terrarium and placed it on a nearby sofa. The lamp turns on by a timer, so it didn’t work at that moment, but grandfather forgot to unplug it. When my younger cousin came to feed their cats and called them to tell them that the house smelled strange, my grandfather remembered the lamp and told her to unplug everything. She did so, but unfortunately the lamp was plugged into a different outlet. And when she turned on again, the sofa eventually caught fire. Of course, my grandfather blames himself, and my cousin felt terrible about not checking everything himself. But it was all just an accident., – the author of the photo answered users’ questions about the cause of the fire.
He also said that this happened a year ago and the house has already been restored and rebuilt, but now it is no longer so cozy
#07. “At night, wild boars plowed my grandparents’ lawn”
The author of the photo said that this incident occurred in Sweden. It’s time to plant something there, you know, “if life gives you a lemon”…
#08. “I bought bread on sale. Now I know why he was on the action .. “
Users urged the author of the photo not to despair, since a lot of interesting things can be prepared from this bread, from cooking scrambled eggs in a slice hole to stuffing half a loaf with all sorts of goodies. By the way, speaking of stuffing a loaf, in Brazil this is a real dish called buraco quente
#09. “When a cobra prevents you from entering your own house”
Netizens suggested changing the title to: “When a cobra keeps you from entering its own home.” They also suggested that the author probably just did not guess her riddles
#10. At one point, the cobra even tried to attack
Commentators suggested throwing a mongoose at her.
#11. “Hurricane Ian tore the roof off my house and destroyed almost everything I had”
Users noted that the bookshelf stands as if nothing happened, to which one of the commenters replied: “It’s a load-bearing bookshelf . ” Imagine someone takes a book off the shelf and all the walls collapse in cartoon style.
People were also interested in asking what that thing is in the sky, to which one of the pranksters replied, “I guess it’s the Yen everyone is talking about . ” If you look closely, you can see a lot of figurines of different characters in the author’s house, and so, in the sky, a figurine of Vitruvius from the picture “Lego. Movie”. Just why he is tied to a rope remains unknown
#12. “An allergy test went wrong. As a result, it turned out that the woman was allergic to “everything”, thereby causing a strong allergic reaction.
It sucks when you’re allergic to allergy tests. Although in principle, in this case, you just need to stay away from allergy tests, which is a fairly simple task.
“My sister is allergic to metal, so her allergy test caused a reaction on every sample due to the use of needles ,” one commenter told the story
#13. “My journey started off great!”
“The engine suddenly began to choke, so I stopped. I smelled smoke, quickly went out and took all the valuables. Two hours later, 4 fire engines and 1 environmental cleanup crew were still working on my car. I guess I’ll have to buy a new air freshener because I think the smell of smoke will be hard to get out…”
#14. “I bought a minivan from a friend a few weeks ago. I constantly found cobwebs in the car, and I decided to spray the interior with insecticide. Here’s what I found”
In the photo you can see black widow spiders. Female spiders of this species produce 4 to 9 egg sacs in one summer, each containing about 100–400 eggs. The eggs are usually incubated for 20 to 30 days.
Contrary to popular belief about the lethality of black widow bites for humans, in fact, medical assistance is used in less than half of all cases, and deaths are quite rare at all
#15. “Last weekend my boyfriend went alone to nature and brought this photo from there. He assured me that below is the upper part of his canoe … “
It is worth noting that this is a rather hairy canoe. Unfortunately, the author of the photo did not tell what happened next, but we can assume that now the guy was sent to live with his “hairy canoe”
#16. “In the past two weeks, my car has started to fail the clutch and wheel bearings. My alternator failed today. The tow truck driver’s hydraulic hose broke while he was trying to tow my car, and while he was checking it, he sprayed me with hydraulic fluid.”
“Yes, it’s hydraulic fluid!” – A great option for an excuse when a strong wind suddenly hit you while you were urinating outside. And to be honest, it seems that the guy is not going through the most successful period in his life
#17. “Forgetting to take my ADHD medication, I poured some water into the kettle, put it on the stove to warm up, and sat down to watch the series, after 30 minutes I realized that maybe my kettle was already boiled”
The author of the photo wrote that he is “not a big fan of loud sounds”, so he does not lower the closing part on the teapot spout, which contains a whistle. Therefore, the author did not hear anything when he boiled. Not sure about the stove, but the kettle will definitely have to say goodbye. Users advised the author of the photo to buy an electric kettle 🫖
