No pain, no brain. That is all we have to say about this next design failure. It seems to win them all. We are doing our best to see if this is an optical illusion. However, the more we try, the more we acknowledge the fact that some human is responsible for this. All that is missing is a small ramp to make this perfect.
This is for all those times when all you wanted was a bit of peace and quiet sprinkled with a touch of flooding. The next question is, how do we solve this? Do we break this apart and create a new and proper one? Or do we just level out the floor by placing a few bricks?
Our Door is Always Open
The person who installed this doorknob clearly took the saying “Our door is always open” far too literally. Either that or they were intoxicated. If only we could have been there with our cameras to capture the moment of realization when the person responsible for this masterpiece first tried to put it into action.
These kinds of design failures always get to us. When the person responsible for this was in the process of putting all of the parts together, didn't he see that something was wrong? If not, then he might need to reconsider all of his life choices.
It's OK, We Get the Message
You can either accuse the guy who painted this on the street of not knowing how to spell properly, or be a bit kinder and simply suspect him of being dyslexic; something that clearly isn’t his own fault. Even a fifth grader can spell the word “stop,” and this isn’t a special code or something that needs to be deciphered.
It’s just funny how an adult could be hired to do a simple job and then mess it up so badly. On the lighter side of things, it could be a source of humor for travelers passing by, to keep them from drowsiness. There’s nothing like a good laugh to boost your alertness.
We Really Hope The Trains Aren't Operating
These are strange times indeed. Apparently, one is no longer safe within the confines of one’s home. This photograph shows us a terrace where the railroad runs directly below it. But of course, this transit line must have been condemned years ago, otherwise this structure would have been smashed into bits.
It’s still hilarious to look at this picture, though. It stimulates one’s imagination, of what the odds are that you’d one day sit outside with a cup of tea and see a freight train choo-choing in your direction.
Trapped
Don’t you just hate it when you’re super hungry but can’t open the fridge because the oven’s blocking it? Or has that never happened to you? This is yet another problem that could’ve been solved by simply measuring first and installing second. Tip: bigger isn’t always better. Oh yes, and sense is not always as common as you may think it is.
This has got to be a house someone is renting out, and that someone obviously doesn't care if his tenants are able to make use of the kitchen or not. As long as he advertised a "fully fitted kitchen and well designed."
