30+ Times Forgetful People Paid The Ultimate Price For Their Unforgettable Mistakes
We've all forgotten something at some point or another. Maybe it was someone's birthday or an anniversary, or maybe you forgot you left an apple in your bag and it got all fermented and weird.
But, there are some people who are forgetful in a way that is beyond frustrating, and frankly, it's almost painful. Read on to see some astounding cases of forgetfulness and the consequences that came with it, as shared by social media users.
Everyone's Favorite Flavor!
Someone forgot to label these ice cream cakes so they decided to have some fun with.
Again, it seems like a pretty sweet deal for the person who didn't make this mistake.
Mixing Paint Was Not In The Training Manual
In case you're wondering, this is what happens when you don't close the lid to a paint mixing machine properly.
I have a lot of questions, but I'm mostly wondering what customer is buying bright yellow paint.
Hey, It Works
I would love to know what kind of person has jumper cables in a place that's easier to find than their dog leash.
Like, where could he have put it that it was so hard to find?
At Least It Tastes Delicious!
Nothing goes better with freshly baked bread than a delicious metal spoon.
At least a loaf of bread isn't something you just bite into, so no one ruined their teeth.
A Parking Incident
This person was trying to show off their new underground garage to their neighbor but forgot that they had parked their Jeep on top of the garage.
The rest is pretty self-explanatory.
That Is One Angry Pooch
This guy who works at a doggie daycare got this picture from his manager telling him he forgot someone.
The dog looks upset but not surprised. This probably isn't the first time.
This Isn't A Loss For The People Who Ordered This Pizza
They'll probably get a lot of use out of that baking sheet, I know I would. Maybe they'll be even more inclined to make pizza at home.
Really, the bigger issue here is that these people thought they could put corn on their pizza and get away with it.
Well, That's Too Bad
I guess this is what happens when you forget to put the drain plugs in your boat. At least they made sure it was good and tied to the dock.
Otherwise, that thing would be a goner.
Now That's Just Bad Luck
Imagine finding a security tag on your suit right before you go into an interview? There could not be worse timing for that.
How did he not notice when he was putting it on?
That Is A Lot Of Snow
I have a feeling that if there was snow coming, it would have been cold enough that leaving your window open was foolish, to begin with.
How would you even get it all out?
French French French
They put it on there enough times you would have thought they would have remembered to add the French translation.
No one bothers to proofread anything anymore. It's a real shame.
Yummy?
In case you ever wondered, this is what cookies look like when you don't put flour in the batter, which seems like a pretty big mistake to make.
I would probably still eat them, though.
Of All The Bad Luck
Hopefully, this person didn't get too far without noticing they left their ticket and passport behind!
I've done this a few times with my phone, but always notice right away, so fingers crossed.
Isn't This Your Job?
I'll admit, I've painted myself into a corner before...but I'm an amateur so it's not that bad.
This man is clearly a professional who forgot the number one rule about his job.
I Think You Forgot Something Important
If you thought the spoon left in the bread was bad, we introduce: shovel paved of in the middle of a road.
You can recover the bread spoon pretty quickly but that shovel is there for life.
I Bet This Would Be Yummy
It's like a slushie, only made of wine.
It also saved this person the trouble of having to get the cork out of the bottle, which is always such a struggle.
Well, This Is Terrifying
It's troubling that this chocolate bunny's face and body just kind of slide down and pooled at the bottom instead of melting into a blob.
It looks so creepy! But, still delicious I'm sure.
What An Elaborate Plan
The person who posted this said a Jehovah's Witness forgot to put their parking brake on when they came knocking and then this happened. This was their plan all along.
You have no choice but to listen to them while they wait for their car to be taken out of your pool.
I Wonder If This Is The Same Person Who Forgot Their Passport?
This seems pretty on-brand for them.
To be fair, in the rush and stress of getting ready to travel, this could have happened to anyone who wasn't paying close enough attention.
That's One Way To Make An Impression
This father was reminded, many times, that they were taking their kids to a church function that afternoon.
Guess he forgot the memo and wore this super appropriate but clearly a little inappropriate shirt.
It's Alive!
This is what happens when you leave caramel on the stove for too long. It looks like a tiny planet that's about to explode.
Also, they're probably never going to get that pot clean.
It Still Works?
This little kid forgot their lunch bag at school so they had to bring their lunch in this the next day.
Apparently, this is something that a child can get suspended for these days!
They Paid The Ultimate Price: Illiteracy
Leaving your eReader on the roof of your car was a bad move, and having it rain and ruin it was just the icing on the cake.
But the ultimate downside here is the impending illiteracy that will come from not reading anymore. Sorry.
Classic Cat Move
A cat's purpose in life is to destroy everything you love and they take that job super seriously.
That's why if you forget to put the lid back on the pizza, you have no one to blame but yourself.
Now That Is Quick Thinking
This is the kind of thinking on your feet we should want in our officers.
Although, I'm pretty sure the keys to those are pretty universal, so hopefully no one gets any ideas.
That's A Crappy Situation
You can't be mad at the Roomba in this situation. The only person you can be mad at is yourself, for forgetting to clean up the puppy poop after they had a little accident.
At least you probably won't forget ever again.
Is That You, Winnie?
Do you ever just forget about the bear in your warehouse? Yeah, me too.
Sometimes it's just so easy to forget to lock the cage of a 600-pound mammal that just woke up from hibernation and is hungry.
Think You're Forgetting Something Here?
I would call you, law firm on the back of a bus, only you forgot to leave a phone number!
Was it one those "pay by letter" situations and they couldn't be bothered?
I'd Still Eat It
Turns out that Snickers is sometimes forgetful and doesn't put chocolate on their candy bars.
It would be disappointing at first, but then I would be totally fine with it and eat it anyway.
That's A Great Look
This is what happens when you forget to bring the appropriate footwear to your lab where you'll be working with dangerous chemicals.
Better safe than sorry. You don't want to hurt your feet.
That's Not Scary At All
This is what happens when you forget to bring in your Halloween decorations for weeks after Halloween.
You end up with a scary-looking winter landscape on your front lawn. Someone's going to call the police.
How Did They Not See This Happening?
I can't imagine that this didn't smell awful long before it got to this point.
It seems reckless to work on your computer by candlelight...or to do anything by candlelight these days.
