Fails are what makes us human. Though we might call them out, laugh at them, and even dedicate a whole website to categorizing and gawking at them, we love fails because they remind us that we’re real. Computers don’t make mistakes, but humans certainly do. It’s why pencils have erasers. That’s why there’s such a thing as a «mulligan.» It’s why when we see Scarlet take that tumble, we laugh. Sure, we …

26 Baffling Design Choices Found in the Wild (May 19, 2024)
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 …

‘I’d stay at the door and start eating’: Entitled takeout customers split opinion with excessive no contact delivery signage
We live in the age of ultimate convenience, something that most of us are different degrees of grateful for. Unfortunately, it can feel like more people lie on the more entitled end of the scale than the other way around. While it may be annoying to have a courier mess up your order or not …

25+ Baffling Design Choices Found in the Wild (April 14, 2024)
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, …

Billboards. They’re some of the biggest signs we have. And with them is an opportunity to really make a statement. Often, they are simply used to promote firework warehouses, gentlemen’s clubs and to let you know that there is a Buc-ee’s coming up in a couple of exits. They often become fodder for road trips, …

‘Heave La France’: 13-year-old dog mysteriously throws up French flag, entertains Twitter
One of the best and worst things about having a dog is that they never cease to surprise you. Just when you think you know all of their quirks and bad behaviors down to a tee, you get complacent and they throw you a curveball that you could never have seen coming. The one thing …

40 Humorously Preposterous Signs Found in the Wild
I’m the type of person who believes in signs from the universe. I believe in fated coincidences, real-life symbolism, and cosmic happenstances. Why? Because it’s way more fun to be the type of person who believes than the type of person who doesn’t. I know there are a lot of logical realists out there who …
