Hilarious People Making the Best of Their Bad Situations

We all make mistakes, its how we learn from those mistakes is what makes us better. However, the way these folks got themselves out of their predicaments is on a whole different level than the average person…

Keep Your Distance Please

Ok, the vanity plate is definitely the star of the show on this one. But, have you taken a look at the tribal tattoo decal on the back window? It looks like Dwayne “The Rock” Jhonson hit them and gave them this sweet sticker to apologize.

Thank You, Mr. Freeman

This is a fine example of “thinking on your feet.” Or, in this case, it would be “thinking sitting down fast asleep.” Either way, Morgan Freeman dropped the one-liner of the century, mad props.

Ralph Lauren’t

Ok, for starters, PLEASE never get a living significant other’s name tattooed on you. I’m sure this was this guy’s escape plan since the beginning, but what if her name was Debbie?

A 1-2-3 Punch

This dude gets it. This whole strip mall looks like a 1-stop shop for admitting your bad decisions, and immediately dealing with them. Keep an eye out for these kinds of places if you’re looking to open a liquor store.

Looking Good In A Hospital Gown

This dude is an all-star. Handsome, funny, bold, and most importantly, he has health insurance. I really hope that someone followed through with him.

Life Will Not Be Contained…

Chances are, this was found somewhere in a southern state, most likely Florida. If someone from Florida was discovered attempting to breed raptors, I wouldn’t be surprised.

It’s Merely A Frame Wound

This is another vehicle that most likely lives in Florida. Floridians love pop culture referencing car decals more than anyone else. Also, their hubcaps look like they’ve been chewed on by alligators.

Waiting For The Perfect Opportunity

It’s amazing that people can make the best of destructive situations they’re in. You can drain your basement after the storm is over, now is the time to cruise.

Slowly Getting There

First things first, this is a hilarious idea. Most importantly, head tattoos HURT, especially on top of the head. Cheers to this geezer for being able to handle that. He really is balding gracefully. That’s Cute But, Are You Ok?

That’s Cute But, Are You Ok?

This is the definition of making the best of a bad situation. That being said, this is the craziest looking bruise, hopefully, this person is healed up by now.

Whoops, My Bad.

You heard it here first folks, this is the store you should support. I bet their grand re-opening ceremony was a barn-burner.

May This Scar Be With You

This is one of the better scar beautifying techniques on the market. If you have a scar that you want to be touched up, talk to your tattoo artist!

Admitting Permanent Defeat

This is an unpopular opinion, but if you don’t want to play soccer anymore, just switch to hockey. It’s just like soccer except you get to wear pads, and hit people.

Everybody Was Kung-Fu Fighting

She’s posing now, but she doesn’t know this will be her car in 15 years. You might want to lay off the windshield there pal.

Hey, I’m Single

This probably yields better results than tinder. There’s no better way to pick someone up in the Home Depot parking lot.

Aww, I Really Needed That

Why would this person cross this out? Instead of destroying two of this person’s windows, just keep the positive message, consider it “paying it forward,” and try and find the car you were trying to tag.

Chidori

Yeah, this one is genius. Especially to all the Naruto fans out there, but this person probably has to pull the broken glass out of their thumbs every time they want to send a text.

The Spider Phone

This is another funny one. But, can you imagine having to hold this up to your face every time you need to make a phone call? Please fix your phone screens, yall.

Sweet Revenge

At least you made the best of a bad situation. It looks like this guy was a real jerk, or possibly a landscaping enthusiast.

These Guys Are Really Wild

This probably wasn’t the best idea for that one person’s car, but that’s the price you pay to look absolutely sick. Send it brah.

Coning Off Traffic

This is like going to one of those ramen restaurants that give you a booth to slurp in peace. This pup is an absolute legend.

It’s A Trap

Nobody should feel sorry for this guy. Clearly, he set this whole situation up for himself. I really hope he had some friends nearby to drive him to the hospital though.

There Is No Turning Back Now

Just give up if this happens. Just get a new phone, go back to bed and start your day over.

Are We There Yet?

How did this happen? Little do they know, Dinesh is the newest Uber boat taxi, the most expensive option available.

Get Your Life Together Man

Quit your job, move to Philly, share an apartment with 8 people, start a noise band, fill your hatchback with watermelons and sell them at the gas station.

Looking For Nuts In The Fluff

This squirrel is actually doing this family a favor. Those cushions are hideous, nor do they have any food in them. Get better ones with food stuffed into them.

There Is Only One Way Out

This situation doesn’t present itself to people very often. Grab the mop and paper towels, your coworkers now think you’re a moron.

Why Are There Even Holes In These?

So this is an old vending machine secret, those chips actually cost $1.50. They don’t have enough numbers to show that, so they have to do this.

Someone Has To Do It

If it wasn’t posted on Instagram, did Nancy and Greg’s house really burn down?

Is That Supposed To Capture Him?

I think the real tragedy here is that guy on the right’s outfit. Someone save him from himself, please!! This is another one most likely shot in Florida.

Great Scott Batman

Hopefully, he’s traveling so fast that he will just fly over the fire. Or, he’s on the invisible Batmobile from the 1970’s Batman comics. Either way, he’s screwed.

What’s Your Ratio?

Only real serious riders work with a system like this. If you stop peddling, you have to be airlifted to the hospital. No real gear-head rides anything but a bike, pressure’s on.

Only In Soviet Russia

Assuming this is going down in Russia (see flip flops, gray sky, and very pale dudes), these guys probably have this handled. Chances are, these guys are already so loaded they won’t even feel the shock.

You’re Never Leaving Your Goth Phase

Ideally, this was the idea of a trained piercing professional, who is hopefully married to a locksmith.

Couch Surfer’s Burning Man

Don’t mind me just taking a little nap here, oh the fire? Don’t mind the fire, I’m really tired, I’ll deal with it later.

Albertian Enginuity

Now, that’s what I call Canadian Engineering! Not only do these guys have enough booze to last them two, maybe three days, but they also have enough energy drinks to stop their hearts.

Eating The I

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. The only flaw I see here is, Tank Sinatra steals peoples photos, and he definitely doesn’t own this one.

What Doesn’t Kill You…

Maybe the next time this dude runs into a shark, he’ll be too scared to mess with him.

You’re Jealous

This looks so sick! Wish this dude had a Go-Pro.

Making The Best Out Of A Tragedy

This is just as sad as it is funny. Hopefully, this guy got the help he needed.

One More Drink For The Road

Cheers! This guy is going straight to the “clink.”

That’s One Way To Do It…

Tracy is out! Maybe you should also break up with your tattoo artist.

Weekend Getaway Ruined

Well, fortunately they’re near the beach! The ocean is nature’s bathtub.

A Can on A Crutch

This is a brilliant idea in theory. Until the person actually tries it and shakes the ever-loving hell out of their beer.

Did You Get The Job?

The real power move here would be, to stay in the closet and refuse to leave until they hire you.

Long Hair, Don’t Care

Oh no! His hair is stuck in his gas tank! Someone help him, please!

Extra Chewy

Whatever you get, you have to eat. I don’t make the rules.

Blocking Her In

Nothing in life is set in stone, except for this lady when her world comes crashing around her. I hope this is safe!

Nothing To See Here, Carry On

Hey bud, whatcha reading?

And He Sticks The Landing

Uh, this guy might need an early pitstop.

Oh My Gosh

Some of these people might have gotten hurt, but they definitely learned their lesson.

Let The Tournament Begin

The weirdest part of this whole thing is the eyeball helmet.

This Isn’t Food

This is the petting zoo baptism everyone has to go through. It’ll be over soon.

He Knows What He’s Doing

Someone contact corporate, Jim’s using the welding gear again.

Look Ma, No Hands

Florida is definitely the coolest place on earth.

My Kind Of Workout

This is both the smartest and dumbest thing ever done.

Makeshift Safety Device

This is actually probably going to work out.

Building Up Brick By Brick

This is actually pretty impressive, that bike might be toast though.

Watch Those Fingers

Nothin’ like chopping up a watermelon on a hot day.

A Skateboard

Skateboard with 8 wheels and a motor? Well, alright then!

Wet and Wild

Post investigation, this is an actual belly flop contest, and this guy probably won.

This is Not A Drill

Speaking from personal experience, this can work very well.

This is The Worst Idea Yet

The craziest part about this is that those bachelors had matching glasses sets.

Someone Help Her

This is just irresponsibility coming from the bus driver, they should be ashamed.

He’s Got A Job To Do

Serves them right for being where they were. Tourists, am I right?

Hole In One

When you can’t afford to go to the golf course, just make your own.
