18 Funny Fails Where Common Sense Wasn’t So Common
I like to think I have common sense, but I’ve also spent several minutes looking for my phone while holding it. So I try not to get too smug about other people’s decisions. Still, some situations give you a sign. An actual sign, with words on it, placed exactly where you’re about to do the thing it says not to do.
These photos are full of those moments. Some people seem determined to treat a warning as a personal challenge.
In others, the sign itself creates more questions than it answers. Regardless, somebody looked at a very simple situation and found a way to make it complicated. I’m just glad my phone incident didn’t have an audience.
