We’ve all had days that are like concentrated doses of Vitamin 2020. Horrible. Dysfunctional. And full of so many hilarious fails, we wonder if we should have our aura cleansed or visit an exorcist. Darn your sense of humor, Universe!
To perk up your spirits and make you feel better about where you currently are in life, Bored Panda has collected some of the most epic examples of people having worse days than you. Remember to upvote your fave pics and we’d love to hear about the funniest bad days that you’ve personally had, dear Readers. Sharing is great for bonding after all (and we could all use an extra good laugh or two).
Want some proof of how blessed your life is (even if we’re all stuck in the disaster that is 2020)? Have a scroll through our earlier posts about the legendary fails that made people definitely have a bad day right here, here, as well as here.
We wanted to learn more about dealing with mishaps, developing psychological resilience, and the power of humor, so Bored Panda contacted the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Vasia Toxavidi, who is a counselor and an accredited member of the BACP, was kind enough to give us some detailed and in-depth insights. (If any of you dear Readers live in the UK and would like to speak to a counselor or psychotherapist about resilience, mental health, or emotional wellbeing issues, you can find specialists in your area right here.)

A can of tuna for him and a plate of hot chips or some really naughty food for you might do the trick. Just don't sit there gossiping with him about the woes of the world and watching the news all day. Make him think of positive things like cat nip and chasing leaves. You do the same, only not with chasing leaves and things, unless that is your 'thing'!

Load More Replies...Toxavidi, an accredited member of the BACP, told Bored Panda that even minor problems can throw off our entire day. "Even small mishaps in the morning like throwing our morning coffee on us or even getting a text or an email we don’t like can affect the rest of our day. A typical sentence I’ve heard a lot of people (and sometimes myself) say is, ‘Oh, great start to the day!’ With sarcastic irony, of course. At that point, when we say that, the ‘negative bias’ effect can start," Toxavidi said.
But what exactly is negative bias? Well, according to counselor Toxavidi, it's the notion that negative events tend to affect us psychologically more than positive ones. That's why we can "persuade" ourselves that the rest of our day will turn out to be horrible. Sometimes, we end up creating a self-fulfilling prophecy because we look at the world through lenses triggered by anger, fear, or the expectation that something will go wrong.

There's a regulation protecting your private information in such institutions (called GDPR in Europe), and i bet that loudly announcing the exact amount on someone's account means violating it.

A Driveway Crew Was Pouring Concrete At A New House Next To A Duck Pond. They Went To Lunch And Came Back To This

That duck clearly was on the phone having an intense conversation
Seabeast 5 years ago
"Millions of years ago, tiny duckbilled dinosaurs walked across this plain."
Toxavidi explained that self-fulfilling prophecies are socio-psychological phenomena where we predict or expect something to come true, so our behavior aligns to fulfill this belief.
"As humans, we create the environment that we think about, so if someone thinks positively, they will see the world more through a positive lens and little mishaps may have a lower effect on them. While someone who is pessimistic and sees the world through a negative lens can be affected more by little misfortunate mishaps," she highlighted the power of positive thinking.
While small mishaps can happen all the time and even every day, how we control our thoughts and what perspective we have on unfortunate events can help us determine how the rest of our day goes. Toxavidi stated that we can control how long we feel negatively after bad events by shifting our view of what occurred.

Even if it was a sex toy, I wish we as a society could stop shaming people for using them. "Oh no, someone has bought a thing designed to give them pleasure, quel horreur!"

I'd even say it's closer to stuff like a massage, good vitamins or a piece of exercise equipment - meaning it provides health benefits.

"For example, I remember a lady at an event where someone by accident spilled red wine on her silk shirt. I remember the calmness in her. She said, 'It’s okay. I love this shirt but it’s not worth enough to ruin my night.' At that moment, she was able to control her thinking and create an argument for her little mishap that helped her to stop ruminating on how the shirt may have been destroyed," the counselor gave a real-life example of how we too can keep our spirits up throughout the day even when it's raining mishaps.
Bored Panda was also very interested to find out more about psychological resilience. Toxavidi said that psychological resilience is our ability to bounce back after facing adversity.
"Although there has been a debate whether resilience, mental and emotional, is innate or something that can be developed, for me, it’s an innate condition that all humans have but needs to be developed and modeled well for it to come to the surface," she explained. "All humans are wired for survival, so resilience must be an innate trait for everyone for this to happen, but if it’s never developed, then it may not come out as a trait for someone."

We start developing our resilience in our growing environment. And we use our parents as role models. This can have huge effects on our future development. "For example, a parent who gets panicky over a little mishap or who sees everything through a negative lens passes that behavior to the child. The child will be conditioned to start using that same behavior. However, this can change and a person who has learned not to be resilient can develop the skills of resilience again."
She continued: "Resilience is the skill of adaptation, which for me is another innate skill of humans compared to other animals. Humans can adapt to situations easier. Having counseling or psychotherapy is an example of how resilience can be developed and learned and become a new way of living."
Toxavidi has seen evidence of people developing resilience firsthand in her counseling practice. Patients who had negative views of themselves and the world around them and were unable to stay in relationships or find self-fulfillment learned to develop skills to make them more resilient, confident, and able to tackle adversity better. Naturally, this led to them developing better relationships both with themselves and others.

We at Bored Panda are huge fans of laughter, so we were curious to find out to what extent humor plays a role in our ability to bounce back from mishaps. Toxavidi confirmed that humor can play a "significant role" in this and can be a great resilience strategy.
"In a study in 2013 in Advances in Physiology Education, it’s been shown that humor and laughter can decrease levels of stress hormones such as cortisol and increase the activation of the pleasure hormone, dopamine. Other studies have shown that just smiling without even finding anything funny can make the brain believe that you are happy and decrease stress levels."

She added that humor can help us reframe problems that we would otherwise interpret as "overwhelming and damaging." Not only that. Toxavidi told Bored Panda that humor can loosen you up, energize your thinking, help you take hardships less seriously, and manage disappointment better.
"Another important key to resilience is to be part of a community and have external support from family, friends and others. As humans, we’re social animals so without having a strong sense of belonging, we cannot thrive or be resilient," she said.

Put Both On This Morning To Get Wife’s Opinion. Forgot To Change Before I Left And Was At Work All Day Like This
In an earlier interview, psychotherapist and author Amy Morin explained to Bored Panda that your mindset has a huge impact on how you process events. Whenever we focus on the idea that we’re victims and that everything ‘always’ goes wrong, we can get trapped in a negative, self-perpetuating emotional loop.
Fortunately, there’s a way out of this mental hole that we dig ourselves into. We need a healthy dose of realism instead of focusing just on the negatives (like getting our feet stuck in the bus door, plopping our phones into our bowls of instant noodles, and walking around with spinach between our teeth all friggin’ day long).
“You can train your brain to look for the good in the world and develop the mental strength you need to perform and feel your best,” psychotherapist Morin explained that we can start by taking tiny steps to turn our instinctive negative thoughts into a more realistic, positive framework for reacting to events.

Developing your sense of humor and having a more lighthearted perspective on life really are two very powerful weapons in your resilience arsenal. Sure, you might have gotten stuck in the doors of that bus, but if you look around and laugh at yourself instead of shuffling into a corner seat and casting down your eyes to hide your embarrassment, you’ll not only boost your mood, you can also make new friends along the way.

When we moved to this house two years ago the cable guy cut a line that went to our thermostat. Within an hour there were like 6 cable and utility guys in my side yard. It was the guys first day. They took care of it and fixed it. Kinda felt bad for the guy.

I think I had the same guy at my house....he drilled from inside my living room wall into the back of my garage cabinet/work bench!! (then drilled from inside the work bench & out the side so he could still complete the cable connection!) He'd been bragging during the whole time that he'd been working for CenturyLink the past 20 years and was one of their best techs!! I could only think, what sort of lousy workers are their other techs if he's one of the best?! Such a jackass!

Do Not Recommend
Kirsten Kerkhof 5 years ago
I lost 16 pounds when I developed a chronic headache that kept me depressed and bedridden for two months (thankfully it's under control now with medication). I was asked by someone what my secret was to my weightloss. It's chronic illness and would not recommend.
Hooked 5 years ago
Same here, the weight loss, not the illness : People asked me about my secret and I could tell them it was due to a messy divorce. Somehow none of them wanted to try the method...

Dropped 9lb in a week! Hyper emesis gravidarium, aka extreme morning sickness (24 hrs a day) that left me constantly doubled over in agony, retching and vomiting. No food for a week, no water for three days. Felt like I was dying. I was. But my GP just told me to try a dry biscuit. It took 3 days in hospital to rehydrate me. Swollen face and tongue, pulled muscles in stomach and back, and medication every 3 hours to keep it under control. My kid is 12 now and I STILL have chronic nausea from this. But, hey, I looked extra skinny for a while, so totes recommend 🙄

My Jaw has a dislocated discus. Every time I open my mouth it pops out of place and I have to push it back. They can't fix it, I'll have to live with it and eating can be pretty painfull. Lost about 20 pounds. People are always envied about my fit figure, untill they see how much pain I'm in when I try to eat.

Really sorry for you, jaw pain is terrible. But where do you live? It could be surgically treated, it's called an eminectomy, i hope that you can get one.

Lost a couple of stone due to gallstones (couldn't keep solid food down). My doctor was like, well, it's not the healthiest way to lose weight, but at least you can consider it a silver lining? He didn't sound convincing, but he was trying to be optimistic lol.

I lost 18 pounds in a fortnight a few years ago by having the worst case of food poisoning my doctor said he’d come across in his career. I was so ill I could only keep down water and semi skinned milk.

A box to keep the can from tipping over might have prevented this, or setting it on the floor of the back seat. Letting the can roll and bounce around is unwise by any stretch.

When The Perfume You Bought Your Wife For Christmas Ends Up In The Toilet As “Air Freshener”

That's totally understandable ! But in this guy's case it's like "can bare it but not on me, the toilet maybe" and it's another feeling ^^
Load More Replies... Kathryn Baylis 5 years ago
Unless you know for certain it’s a scent she likes and wears, or she specifically asked for it by name, do not buy her perfume. Scents smell different on everybody because of reactions with individual body chemistry, so a perfume that smells like a bouquet of flowers on one person can smell like bug spray—-or worse—-on another person. So just don’t try to second guess what perfume she’ll like.

Perfume is too risky as a present, even for someone you've known for years, it's best to let them choose by themselves 😉

It is odd. The door looks similar to a fridge, however the evaporator coils (the two shelves at the top inside) definitely says it's a freezer.

Old photographers rule. Always put polarizing filters on the front of your lenses to protect from scratches. The glass is flat, those are filters and you can see the lens on the right is actually fine. It sucks, but only about $20 lost.

ALL Equipment MUST BE ON THE FLOOR IN THE STRONG CASE, that is ment for casing the cameras. I am a cameraman myself, that is what I learned first day on the first job.. The floor is the lowest point, so always keep your equipment on the lowest point and be aware at all times where it is.. no relaxing, while you have 5-10.000$ worth of equipment!!
