28 Times People Messed Up So Bad With Given Instructions, Resulting In Hilarious Mishaps

Daniel Figaro

Custom items are nothing unfamiliar in today's time and age. People always look for original products as they feel more special using those things. Understandable. Why go for something that everyone has while you can get something unique? Popular products may sound trendy, but it sometimes also means that everyone has the same thing as you. Imagine that awkward moment when you walk down the street in your newly bought, trendy dress only to see a bunch of other girls wearing seemingly identical dresses?
Well, we humans all have egos. It's hard to accept that some strangers on the street have something identical to yours. That's one problem with mass-produced items. Maybe it's up-to-date. Maybe it makes you look cool in people's eyes. However, the chance that there's also somebody following that trend is pretty high. Would you take the risk?
So, that's why custom items are getting more attention these days. One way to make your items unique is by ordering producers to make them as you want. Brilliant idea! We love having something that nobody else does, and this is the way. Just make it clear what you want your item to look like, and producers will give you the same thing as in your imagination. Well, that's the theory, at least.

In reality, ordering a custom item means taking the risk to make your dream come true. Imagination and reality can be far more different than you can think. You expect a good outcome as you give producers clear instruction on how to make your custom item, but things are never that simple, or people make them more complicated. "It can't go wrong," you think. Still, let me tell you...

People have a unique ability to misinterpret others. Even with the most simple instructions, we still manage to mess up. "Write Happy Birthday; use a pretty font." You leave a note to a bakery on your order, and when you receive the cake, that whole sentence is written on the top, in a quite pretty font, though. You cannot believe it, but such things happen. There's even an entire Subreddit dedicated to those hilarious mishaps due to people misunderstanding the instructions.

Impressive! Our ability to mess things up is just as incredible as our ability to solve the impossible. After seeing these pictures above, we bet you'll agree with us that our brain doesn't always function the same way. The point is what to do to convey your intentions most accurately. No matter how simple your instruction appears to be, nothing can make sure that people get it right.
Anyway, those awkward misunderstandings bring fun to help us through the dullness of the day. We really hope that you have a good time reading this article as we also did.
