There's something about broken patterns, a symmetry that's out of order, and flawed elements that seem to trigger us... Even if you're not a perfectionist, our brains just seem to prefer things that are ordered in a nice way. Not to mention how annoying things not in the right place can be.

To show you what we're talking about, Bored Panda has put together a list of disturbing photos that are guaranteed to invoke OCD. Don't believe me? Just take a look below and try to go through the whole imperfections list without muttering "aarrgh."

Do you have any awkward photos that annoy you? Add them to the list, and don't forget to vote!

some of my colleagues do this, I sometimes ask them for a file that I know is in there. It frustrates them too at that moment :-)

Indeed it looks uncomfortable, but somehow I love the weirdness of it. Almost wanna have a similar design for my own door.

I guess this might be good for kids. My little sister (8 years old) was sitting next to me and she laughed like a crazy person when she saw this :-D I don't know, I thought it was creepy at first, but now I really don't know what to think about it when she found it so funny :-D she said that their smiles look like rabbits and Sponge Bob :-D I love children's imagination :-))

Fellow sisters, take notes for the next time a stranger asks you to smile out of nowhere.

It's sort of like clown makeup. The smiles are funny and goofy until you realise their eyes aren't smiling. THAT'S terrifying x Y (Y=Toinfinityandbeyond) when goofy mask person is holding a dental drill.

Worst sight to see when you are undergoing surgery and the doctor stated I s**t you not "we are gonna put you to sleep" man even after 14 years it still seems wrong to say

Clowns and medical or dental issues do not mix. Never trust a clown. They have no idea who or what they are.

Yup creepy. I have my eyes closed when at the dentist when they r working. But when i open my eyes this could make me feel unsettled. Perhaps kids would like it????

It's a visual version of people laughing at you--like when you go to the nail salon and they are obviously laughing at you in Vietnamese.

I think this is for children so they won't find it as scary to go to the dentist. And it really isn't that creepy in my opinion. It's basically the same kind of mouths a cartoon carachter have. What's creepy about that? It's just silly.

Or when you sharpen them nice and well, but they - not break - but SLIP out of the pencil as soon as you place the tip on the paper.

I would have sprayed it, so it would last forever. And if it were from a fast food place, no spray necessary - just put it on your shelf, it WILL last forever!
