Tiny inconveniences that someone had to snap a pic of

What is it that compels some people to repeatedly pick the most annoying option available? It’s as if thinking about others never even enters their minds.

Check out some of the most frustrating examples found online. While these may seem like small annoyances on their own, when they pile up, they can really test your patience. A bit of consideration can make all the difference—just saying.

Turn Food Into A Game

This condiment pump arrangement flips everything we were taught as kids—especially the rule about not playing with your food. The real challenge? Forget the labels and see if you can guess what each pump holds. It’s a mix of snack bar and guessing game all in one.

Now There’s No Milk

It’s obvious this person wasn’t thrilled to discover the milk was all gone—too late, of course. We get the frustration, but leaving a note right on the jug? That takes things to a whole new level!

She Followed Instructions

“I asked the lady to cut my sandwich into three pieces.”

But hey, she never promised the pieces would be equal. Maybe her plan was to enjoy the largest piece for dinner, a medium one for lunch, and keep the smallest for breakfast.

Holey Bread

We all know holy bread—whether it’s for the Sabbath or representing the body of Christ—but bread shouldn’t be this full of holes. It should have a little more heft to it.

The Problem With Pockets

Why haven’t clothing brands caught on yet that women want pockets too? How else are they supposed to carry their bulky handheld game consoles? We seriously need bigger pockets! At least these pants come with pockets—something that’s often missing in many women’s styles.

The Worst Kind Of Clock

This clock perfectly highlights how frustrating those $4.99 price tags can be. Just imagine if every number we used daily followed that same tricky pattern.

Who Would Want These?

Gucci aimed for ultra high fashion and avant-garde vibes with these glasses that appear to be worn upside down. Honestly, I’m baffled about who would actually spend money on them.

Testing Your Eyesight

Why settle for pressing just one button when you’re given multiple options for the same floor? And let’s not forget—some floors don’t even show up. Want the second floor? Too bad, no chance.

A Broken Shower Door

Glass shower doors are awesome—until they suddenly break and scatter shards all across your bathroom floor. It’s not something that happens frequently, but when it does, it’s a total nightmare.

Who Is Jeff?

This view could have been stunning, but Jeff spoiled it by carving his name in giant letters on a rock. Why is it always some guy named Jeff? No offense to all the decent Jeffs out there!

Why Isn’t It Centered?

The person who set up this tiny round garden had one simple task: place it in the center of the circle. So why is it shoved to the side instead?

It’s Not Ready To Eat

This spinach is labeled as triple washed and ready to eat. So why was there a whole dead moth inside? Looks like it could have used a fourth wash.

It Fell Over

Well, Merry Christmas to you as well. This tree couldn’t hold it together for one more minute and decided to give up right before Christmas day. Honestly, this image perfectly captures how we feel about this year.

There Are Two Kinds Of People

There are two types of people in this world—those with perfectly tidy toothpaste tubes and those with toothpaste smeared all over the cap, tube, and counter.

That’s Too Many Icons

This person didn’t have enough space on one desktop for all of his icons, so he had to add another screen. If you need this many icons, you may have some other problems.

Caught In A Tough Spot

Don’t you hate it when your pocket gets caught on a door handle or a cabinet knob? I feel like this is something that happens to all of us at some point in our lives.

A Carpeted Bathroom

We aren’t sure why somebody thought it would be a good idea to cover this bathroom with carpet. This seems like a recipe for mold and mildew. I can’t imagine that this room smells very nice.

The Thickest Roll

This roll of toilet paper looks super full and thick, but really it just has a really wide cardboard tube inside it. That’s just not okay. Companies are getting sneakier and sneakier.

It’s Still Closed

This person went to open a sealed container only to discover that they had removed the foil top while leaving the thin plastic film behind. This container is still very much closed.

Asking For A Mix-Up

Why would this company put pepper in a white shaker and salt in a black shaker? I understand that the writing is in the inverse color, but if I’m holding a mostly white shaker, I’m going to think that it’s salt.

Blocked By Trucks

Don’t you hate it when you’re driving down the highway and you have three very slow-moving trucks in front of you? Shouldn’t all of these trucks be in the right lane?

Fingerprints Everywhere

This computer does not have a touch screen, and yet, it’s totally covered in fingerprints. Why was somebody continuously touching this screen? Did they think that it was a touchscreen?

Who Would Do This?

Somebody thought that it would be a fun idea to mix together bouncy balls and gumballs in a single machine. This could be super dangerous. It’s a good thing that they’re warning people with that caution sign.

The Middle Piece

This person wanted the middle slice of cake and it didn’t matter how many edge pieces he had to sidestep to get there.

Now, this whole cake is going to dry out and get stale.

Keep Your Feet To Yourself

You don’t get much legroom when you’re on an airplane. We get that it’s uncomfortable. But that doesn’t mean that you can put your feet in somebody else’s space.

The Worst Legend

Why wouldn’t the names of the building on the legend correspond to the actual numbers of the buildings? This just seems like a wasted opportunity. It also seems very confusing.

Four Whole Parking Spots

This truck driver is somehow taking up four whole parking spots. Do they think that they own the entire parking lot? This person really needs to learn how to share.

False Advertising

By the picture on the packaging, you would think that this pastry would be absolutely full of poppy seeds. Well, that is definitely not the case. This is false advertising!

It Wasn’t A Smooth Tear

Don’t you hate it when these tear-away strips don’t tear away smoothly? These strips are supposed to do their job. This is so frustrating to look at. I guess it’s time to break out the scissors.

A Drain That Doesn’t Work

These street drains are supposed to prevent water from pooling on the road. The pavement is supposed to be tilted so that the water flows into the drain. This pavement looks like it’s tilted the wrong way.

To Buy Or Not To Buy

“Toughest decision of my life.”

If you get to save one cent and still pretty much get the same amount of fuel, then why not? A saving’s a saving, it’ll eventually add up.

Spot The Error

It was all going so well until it wasn’t. Would it really have been that much more work to make sure that that one DVD aligned correctly with the rest of its brothers and sisters?

A Divorce Is In Order

This is why you should live with your partner before committing to marriage, so you can avoid being stuck with someone who’ll rip all packages in the middle like this for the rest of your life.

Reminder: Tattoos Are Permanent

It’s unclear if he finds joy in uneven things or if he just wanted to make himself feel bad forever when he got this tattoo done. Maybe his tattoo artist simply lined it up wrong. Either way, he’s stuck with it for life.

What Is It?

How do you know when to leave this lecture? Some of these laptop clocks are a few minutes off, and it’s absolute chaos. I would just rely on the guy who had the latest time so we could all get out as early as possible.

Thinking Outside The Box

“My girlfriend uses bendy straws this way.”

Technically, there’s no law against using a straw this way. It would likely still work the same as long as she never puts it down.
