Photography is a skill that not everyone excels in. Unless you've got an eye for capturing the perfect shot, the likelihood is that you'll go through life taking average pictures. But sometimes you get lucky and take that once in a lifetime shot that can only be explained by chance and good luck—the picture that captures something too fast for the eye to see. Here are some photographs people took where timing was on their side and allowed them to take the perfectly timed moment.

Although fashion is very much subjective and down to individual taste, there are some things that are universally just not OK when it comes to clothing. There have been various fashion trends over the years, but the latest one takes the cake. Unfortunately, we are living in a time where men's lace shorts are now a thing. I know... how?! What?! Why?!?!? But here they are and if you're interested in purchasing a pair of these lacy monstrosities, you can find them on Hologram City. But we don't understand why you would.
Growing up, we're always told it's the effort that counts and not the final result. That as long as you put effort into something, that's all that matters even if you fail. And that's certainly what these people thought, who tried being smart but unfortunately failed miserably. Enjoy browsing through these hilarious pictures of people who need to just try a little harder next time.
School is a place to learn, but it's also a place to make mistakes. Because that's how you learn, right? Ideally, those mistakes happen on the down low, like when you get an answer wrong in a test. But sometimes, they happen very publically and the cringe-worthy moment will live on forever in the minds of everyone who saw it. Awkward school presentations are a great example of the public humiliation endured in school and an AskReddit thread listing examples of the "please stop" school presentations that people have witnessed revealed some real gems. Here are some of the funniest.
Games are a great way to pass the time, especially during our current lockdown situation. They provide an opportunity for friends and families to bond, whether they're played in person, online or via video chat (unless it's Monopoly, which, for the sake of peace in the home, we wouldn't recommend during lockdown). But being in lockdown means that some games, such as hide and seek, are harder to play. After all, how many times can you hide in the same three spaces? Oh, how we took it for granted. As a throwback, an Ask/Reddit thread asking people to share stories of how their games of 'hide and seek' went horribly wrong, before coronavirus took over the world of course. It revealed how quickly games can go from a bit of innocent fun, to horribly wrong. Here are some of the most shocking stories.
Being stuck at home right now means that we don't have access to many of the services that we're dependent on, like schools, gyms and beauty salons. And while homeschooling, doing home workouts and painting your own nails aren't ideal, they're still manageable for the hopefully, short term future. But some services, such as getting a haircut, really need to be left to the professionals because they're just to easy to mess up. These people learned that lesson the hard way, and are probably regretting their DIY chops.
Some people are born to cook and others are most definitely not. We can't all be Gordon Ramsay and judging by these horrific pictures, it's clear that some people should never be allowed into the kitchen. From cooking pizza in its box to setting spaghetti on fire, these people were not blessed with the art of cooking. If you think you're the only one failing in the kitchen, scroll down for some true kitchen fails and be assured you are not alone!

What seems like an innocent and cute design has going horribly wrong -- and in so many ways!
Do you think the Japanese designers behind this product didn't realize all these alternative views of their design, or was it intention? Either way, the cup has gone viral and as they say, 'There is no such thing as bad publicity.'
