When it comes to design, we can't all be Leonardo Da Vinci. Sometimes, however, you see a product, advertisement, or structure that is so embarrassingly messed up that you have to wonder who even approved it. Some of them simply suffer from unfortunate placement, but others are just completely out of touch with reality. We're pretty sure the employees who came up with these ideas had a 'long talk' with their bosses after the fact.
Hence, we're bringing you round 2 of the best (well, technically worst) things people have posted to the "crappy designs" subreddit, though be warned - you may need some time to recover after seeing them. Vote for the ones that made you cringe the hardest, and let us know if you've encountered any of these design fails in real life. While you're at it, check out our previous list here.

This Inflatable Slide

What is that even supposed to be? Either, it is supposed to be a giant penis and it is a success even if totally inappropriate, either.. well either i need someone to help me find any other possibility because i can't see anything but this giant penis.
Jilda Romare 8 years ago
Is it perhaps a giant hotdog? Or some prehistoric animal tail? You're right, it's just a penis!

And the color choice makes it even worse — to the point you have to wonder how accidental it was.

So, all through the production of this slide, none of the many people who no doubt saw this thing at it's various stages of construction stopped and said, "Wait a minute. Does this thing look like a d**k to anyone else?"

Maybe the couch and the slide could get together. What would they create???

That actually makes sense in Spanish... the "plus" is read as "más" so it reads "Idiomás", "Idiomas" means "Languages". But since they teach English, someone must definitely have seen it.... might be intentional?

lil known fact, Batman did have a green batsuit...................................... During one mission, Batman had to use several Batsuits with different colors in order to keep the attention on him instead of his partner, Robin. The different colors used were red, blue, orange, green and golden. There were also two special Batsuits: one was white with a bullseye on Batman's chest instead of the Bat-emblem and the second one was a "Rainbow Batsuit", which was probably Batman's most notorious batsuit. After this mission, Batman stored all the colored batsuits and never used them again.....................................

When You Give Up On Finding Words To Fit The Acronym

I feel like there is a sad story behind this. Like: the designer of the box had so many great & fresh ideas of what the PP could stand for, but nothing satisfied the management. He worked hours, days, weeks, only to learn, that his suggestions are worthless. Soon he started to feel wortless. He suffered from insomnia and depression, yet still tried. One day the CEO has reprimanded him severely, because of this issue. The CEO said: "You simply need to write something, that will say, that this pie is delicious. It's not that hard! Like 'delicious pineapple'... That's it! Write exactly that!". The designer tried to explain why this would'nt work, but he had to do it anyway... So he did, the bes way he could. And everyone laughet at thim after the boxes were ready. And because of that the same CEO had to fire him and force him to pay for the awful boxes (they were destroyed and other ones were used), not telling the truth to anyone...

Some of these reminded me of this eraser/pencil sharpener combo my friend has. It's a smiling bear wearing a backpack (backpack holds the pencil shavings) and to sharpen the pencil you have to stick it up the bear's butt. The first thing I almost said was "[friend's name] I think I know why your bear is smiling like that"

#78 isn't wrong. If one group is 100% more likely to do something than another, they are twice as likely to do it. If they are 50% more likely to do it, they are 1.5 times as likely. That actually IS how percentages work.

Asus is horrible about their power buttons. The one I am using right now has the power button on the side where it can be easily accidentally pressed and it is also next to the volume /down buttons. It's a two-in-one, I'm assuming they tried to go for tablet aesthetic, but wtf.

the last one is not a design fail. although many people outside of Latvia associate it with the Nazis and their terror it is actually an old symbol used before Hitler to represent luck and was used on weapons in combat to help in battle it is known as the fire symbol and is actually a very positive symbol.
