44 People Who Got the Short End of the Stick

Nathan Johnson Published 10/07/2023 in facepalm

Sometimes life has your number.

We all have bad days, that's what makes the good ones so special. But if you have five bad days in a row, then maybe the big man upstairs is upset about something, or maybe your luck has run out. Whatever the case may by, things can't always be sunshine and rainbows.

Take from these people, they know what it's like when things don't go their way. Spilled food, broken tools, rainy days, you name it, someone has dealt with it.

So without kicking them while their down, enjoy these people and their fails and be thankful they aren't yours.
