We all make a typo now and then. We wouldn’t be human if we didn’t! I remember learning how to type in computer class in 4th grade. We would put orange silicon covers over the keyboards so we couldn’t see the letters and then take timed tests. Do kids still have to do that or …

30 Baffling Design Choices Found in the Wild (May 12, 2024)
Fails are a part of life. It’s what separates us from the computers, for now. We make mistakes, we goof up, we screw the pooch. It’s why they call it human error. Some mistakes are more visible than others, though. Accidentally make a right turn instead of a left? Easily rectified in most cases, and nobody has noticed. Drop a whole stack of …

Does anyone else have someone in their life who points out every little continuity error when you’re watching a movie or a TV show? For me, it’s my mom. No matter what we’re watching, she will point out that the character’s hair has changed slightly between shots, or that a cup was full in one shot and now it’s empty, or …

We’ve all made a typo every now and then. A little slip of the keyboard happens to the best of us. It probably happened to the best writers of history. We don’t think of Earnest Hemingway ever accidentally typing «hte» instead of «the» but he most definitely did. He just had editors who made sure …

In my experience, you either have good design taste or you don’t. Some folks are born with a natural eye- they know what looks good and have an intuitive sense of what goes where, what colors go together, and what prints match. Sure, you can learn, but some people have a natural knack that you …

Much like love, design really is all around. Just looking out of the window at the coffee shop where I currently am, I’m confronted with hundreds, if not thousands of design decisions. There’s the sign for the tattoo parlor across the street, the cars parked on the street, the hoodie that guy is wearing, heck, …

There are so many things that I’d design differently if I was in charge. A lot of them are food packaging-related. Flour is so poorly packaged. Once you open it, it gets everywhere and it’s impossible to close without making a mess. Just make the top of the bag resealable! Honey is also a disaster …

Sometimes words fail. We try with all our might to get our point across but we just can’t come up with the right language to put to our feelings. This happens to me when I’m angry or sad. The emotion gets too overwhelming and I end up tripping over my words like some kind of …

If a design fails in the middle of a small town and no one is around to post it on Reddit, does it really fail? When doing research for this meme list, that always crosses my mind. There are probably so many spectacular design fails out there, but it takes a keen eye and the …
