This clock perfectly highlights how frustrating those $4.99 price tags can be. Just imagine if every number we used daily followed that same tricky pattern.

Gucci aimed for ultra high fashion and avant-garde vibes with these glasses that appear to be worn upside down. Honestly, I'm baffled about who would actually spend money on them.

Why settle for pressing just one button when you're given multiple options for the same floor? And let’s not forget—some floors don’t even show up. Want the second floor? Too bad, no chance.

Glass shower doors are awesome—until they suddenly break and scatter shards all across your bathroom floor. It's not something that happens frequently, but when it does, it’s a total nightmare.

This view could have been stunning, but Jeff spoiled it by carving his name in giant letters on a rock. Why is it always some guy named Jeff? No offense to all the decent Jeffs out there!

The person who set up this tiny round garden had one simple task: place it in the center of the circle. So why is it shoved to the side instead?

This spinach is labeled as triple washed and ready to eat. So why was there a whole dead moth inside? Looks like it could have used a fourth wash.

Why haven't clothing brands figured out that women want pockets as well? How else are they supposed to carry their bulky handheld game consoles? We need bigger pockets! At least these pants come with pockets—something most women’s pants seem to lack.

Don't you hate it when your pocket gets caught on a door handle or a cabinet knob? I feel like this is something that happens to all of us at some point in our lives.

We aren't sure why somebody thought it would be a good idea to cover this bathroom with carpet. This seems like a recipe for mold and mildew. I can't imagine that this room smells very nice.

This roll of toilet paper looks super full and thick, but really it just has a really wide cardboard tube inside it. That's just not okay. Companies are getting sneakier and sneakier.

Why would this company put pepper in a white shaker and salt in a black shaker? I understand that the writing is in the inverse color, but if I'm holding a mostly white shaker, I'm going to think that it's salt.

We've heard of holy bread (like the kind eaten on Sabbath or the kind that represents the body of Christ), but bread really shouldn't be this holey. It should have some more substance to it.

Somebody thought that it would be a fun idea to mix together bouncy balls and gumballs in a single machine. This could be super dangerous. It's a good thing that they're warning people with that caution sign.

You don't get much legroom when you're on an airplane. We get that it's uncomfortable. But that doesn't mean that you can put your feet in somebody else's space.

Ironically, one letter needs to be shifted over so that the word "shift" can be spelled correctly. Since the letters were probably printed by a computer, one can only wonder how such a mistake happened.

Technically, there's no law against using a straw this way. It would likely still work the same as long as she never puts it down.
