If Today Feels Horrible, Here Are 20 Photos To Remind You It Can Always Get Worse (New Pics)

Article created by: Ingrida Jasiukevičiūtė

Life doesn’t always go as planned. Sometimes it might even feel as though the universe is offended by our mere existence… It’s out to get us, armed with a dash of bad luck, questionable timing, and a wicked sense of humor. And just when we think our day couldn’t possibly get any worse - it does.

As much as we like to wallow in self-pity when things go south, there’s some strange comfort in realizing that we’re not alone. There’s almost always someone, somewhere out there, who is (believe it or not) having an even worse day than you. And once they’ve recovered enough to laugh about it, many of them will gladly post about it online, to remind the rest of us that perfection is pretty overrated.

If you wish you didn't get out of bed this morning, or just like to laugh at other people's misfortunes, keep scrolling. Bored Panda has rounded up a list of stories that prove no matter how rough you've had it, some poor soul has probably had it worse, and they've got the receipts to prove it.

#10 Landlord Sent Someone Over To Give The Pecan Tree A "Trim"

Mind you, the tree wasn't in the way in regard to the driveway or the foundation, and I never once complained about it other than the occasional smacking of my head on a singular low-hanging branch (I'm five-nothing; that's a really low-hanging branch). I loved having it there despite it constantly raining unripe pecans because it was at the perfect angle to provide ample shade for my truck year-round. Now I have no shade and it's still 90° outside.

#19 I’ve Had Some Bad Days, This One Is One Of My Worst

Yes, that is a fry oil dumpster; it’s half the size of our regular dumpsters and holds six months’ worth of oil. Thankfully it was emptied a few weeks ago. And no, this isn’t where it’s supposed to be; it’s actually five miles away from the restaurant after being dragged by a tractor trailer that also sideswiped one of our customers’ cars. And it’s leaking into a creek. We had to explain to the cop five times that we’re supposed to have three dumpsters, not two.

#20 Attempted To Make Brownies As A Surprise For My Roommate

It was a brand-new brownie pan from my mom, in our brand-new oven, in an apartment we just moved into earlier this month. My roommate was having a bad day, so I thought I'd be nice. Put the pan in, closed the oven, turned around, and boom. It took over an hour of wiping, scooping brownie batter-covered glass with a spatula. Now we're out a brownie pan and a few washcloths that the glass wouldn't come out of, and I've got a ton of tiny glass scratches on my hands.
