Join us as we tour some of the internet’s most head-scratching moments in design and daily life. From baffling branding to product fails, these images will have you laughing, sighing, and asking yourself, 'Who thought this was a good idea?' Prepare for a wild, weird ride!
“This Harvey’s sippy lid - has a hole to drink from and another one to the left that pots your drink all over your lap!”
Just wanted to drink my soda, not wear it like an accessory. Why is there a random hole that guarantees a lap full of cola? Honestly, after one attempt, I’d need a seatbelt and a raincoat just to brave this sippy lid again. Who designs these things?
“The sign was not in Braille.”
Great to know Braille menus are available…unless you rely on Braille and can’t read this totally flat sign. Intentions were good, but the execution gets a solid D-. Maybe next time, just use actual Braille?
“A Water Massacre Brewing?”
Imagine a bowl of wipes boldly claiming to 'kill NZ water.' That’s not the hydration crisis I was expecting. Between the wipes’ alarming label and the official display, I’m suddenly feeling thirsty—and slightly afraid for New Zealand’s rivers.
“Hmmmm, which one should I use?”
There’s no way to win here—choose the square hole or the round one, but neither actually matches what you’ve got. Maybe it’s a secret test of creativity: only those worthy may correctly dispose of their trash.
“They don't want you to have soup”
Tore open my noodle cup and the universe said, 'Not today.' Instant regret, instant mess, zero soup enjoyment. You’d think after all these years, packaging would have evolved past this level of betrayal. Ramen nights just got tragic.
“You should get that hand checked...”
Perfect example of what happens when you add clipart hands where they really don’t belong. The nest, the bees, the sudden urge to call a doctor… Did anyone actually proofread this? Because that hand has issues.
“Incredibled bounce house fail”
I think I’d run from this bounce house before risking any fun inside. The face says 'superhero,' but the energy screams 'help, please!' Designers had one job and definitely took some creative liberties on this inflatable disaster.
“Apple mouse battery is dead. I guess i'll just go home now.”
So it’s 2024 and I still have to flip this mouse upside-down to charge it, making it totally unusable. Is this a prank? Guess I’ll pack it up and head home. No work’s getting done until someone fixes this award-winning oversight.
