"Crappy Design" (previously here, here, and here) is back, and it's the crappiest pile of crap that has ever been crapped. Alright, maybe that was a little harsh, but after you take a look at some of these "accidents," you'll definitely wonder how on earth can anyone greenlight and produce them. Putting the light switch right next to the fire alarm control? Yep. Designing a toilet that looks like it has just endured a large dose of diarrhoea? You bet. Scroll down to check out some of the biggest design disasters and upvote your (least) favorite ones.

    When I was in high school I failes a trigonometry test because my protractor was all wrong like that. Hopefully my math teacher was the one who suggest to check my material and who discovered the reason (and allowed me to pass a new test). I'm pretty sure this wasn't his first time...

    That's why there was a memo at the school where I work a few months ago , that students shouldn't buy their protractor triangle at a certain store, quite popular for school supplies, because it just was all kinds of wrong... :')
