People Who Aggressively Didn't Get The Joke


Most of us have a decent idea of how jokes work, or we are at least somewhat adept of seeing the signs of when something is a joke. It would be rough walking around this world just thinking everyone is stupid and wrong all the time. To further confuse the literal minded, here are some technically accurate moments that aren't wrong. And for some straight up dumbness, here are some facepalm moments from humanity's beacons of stupid.

The World's Most Notable Design Flaws


Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about design flaws that make it seem very obvious that the very people that design the products never actually used the products themselves. Many of us have encountered those various products that are advertised as making most everything in life easier, and then they end up being complete adversaries to that promise of an easier life.

Ancestry DNA Tests That Unearthed Family Secrets


Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the wildest revelations that came to light after various families tried out those Ancestry DNA tests. This certainly isn't the first time that we've encountered some crazy Ancestry DNA drama. We had the one dude who ended up creating chaos in his family after purchasing one of the $99 kits. We also had that other story about a family getting completely blindsided by an emotionally shocking secret from another one of the kits.
