Times people realized a little too late that things weren’t quite right

People realize something is wrong all the time, but it can be too late sometimes.

For example, when you order a 12-piece nugget and they give you eight instead. How about when a cat thinks it's a dog because they raised it?

This cat urinated in 20 cups of uncooked rice.

That makes me wonder if this cat did this on accident or if for some reason it thought it was in charge.

You can call this a big mistake. The person who took this photo said they parked next to this truck and saw the slash.

I wonder if the owner knew before this picture got taken. That's a deep slash.

Anticipating extra cheese on a pizza is the greatest. When you find out that isn't the case, your heart breaks.

This pizza with no cheese doesn't look too bad, but it still doesn't look appetizing.

This person couldn't find their Apple pen and decided to take a break. When they sat on the couch, they heard a crack.

Too bad it wasn't a bag of chips or something else, but they knew something was wrong right away.

We have a giant problem with this one. These statues are supposed to have masks to encourage others to wear theirs, but they don't have them on the right way.

If you're going to try to influence people like this, at least get it right the first time.

When the iPad is on its back with a nice case, it can be easy to confuse it with a cutting board.

Since Granny is a little bit older, she gets a pass for this one. Next time she knows better.

I wonder if she sensed something was wrong mid-cut or if it hit her all at once. If the latter, that's the worst.

At least she knows not to go back to that hairdresser anymore after this cut.

This looks like a little kid did it without permission.

At least he was man enough to admit that he was wrong for getting that tattoo. He probably just wanted to fit in with others.

The commentary makes the tatt a little more bearable since it's pretty funny to see.

When All They Wanted Was A CheeseBURGER

If they only wanted cheese, I'm sure they would've asked. Imagine if they waited until getting home to eat this.

At that point, you might as well throw it away. No one wants a half-grilled cheese sandwich.

Was someone trying to kill the clown? Who lit a fire in the sewer? If this happened naturally, that's scary.

There's no telling how this happened, but it shouldn't have. People should be careful.

If not replaced, an extensive renovation will be necessary. I wonder how silly the driver felt.

This is why it's always tricky buying young kids expensive or nice things—they probably won't appreciate it at first.

That chair looks elite, but she wasn't having it one bit. The box was better to her.

If you're biking through rocky terrain, you better wear a helmet and pads. This could've hurt way more than it did.

If you're driving past this at a reasonable speed, you're probably going to mistake this for dead people in the dumpster.

At least, that's what someone's kid did. The parent had to turn around and make sure they didn't really see dead people.
