You know how Christmas day is supposed to be the best day of the year? It seems that nothing could go wrong when you're spending some relaxing time with your family, unwrapping the many presents that you've got with your tummy stuffed with delicious foods. Well, as with everything in life, not even the Christmas spirit is safe from being ruined by some epic fails and turning into the worst day ever.

It turns out that Christmas is only merry until you sink your teeth into a soap lobster thinking it's chocolate. Or until you shatter your glass table and your entire dinner ends up on the floor. The beauty of the internet, however, is that no matter what kind of funny fails happen to you, no matter the bad luck that has been dealt for you, you can always browse it to find someone who's having it worse. Bored Panda has compiled a list of hilarious photos of people who probably wish to forget their Christmas (or at least parts of it), and they will make yours look 10/10. So scroll down to check the merry people whose holidays turned into some sick Christmas jokes below!

Clean inside and out. But I'm confused how the smell didn't tell her it was a soap and not chocolate.

They were everywhere when I lived in Sydney! Huntsmen didn't really bother me. The funnel web building a web on the sliding back door freaked me out though!!! lol

It's just a Huntsman. They don't bite and generally enter our homes before a storm hits. More scared of us then we should be of it. :)

They actually DO bite!! lol My friend had one bite her face when she tried to swat it away in her sleep. At least she killed it right after. About a month later, I found one in my bedroom. Went to get bug spray & it was gone when I came back. Made sleeping difficult for awhile!!

Huntsmen aren’t that bad… just when the shits just at you.. that’s annoying. Also, if you think fly spray of any insect spray will kill them- no. Usually just slows them down…

Pfft, they're harmless unless you're stupid enough to poke at it enough to aggravate it. Pretty much like many animals. They do look bit but they're not, just have long legs.

I was just reading about spiders in Australia. I think this is a Funnel Spider. The legs alone can be 4 inches long. They hurt, but seldom kill.

Just cuz it's a big spider just make it any more aggressive than a small spider and believe it or not spiders don't just attack you if anything I think it's absolutely gorgeous to be able to see all of its detail in such a big image would be a treat for the eyes more than it should be a fear factor they're not going to bite you because they can I bet you if you poke it it would run away

This is Australia, mate. Some of the spiders can do ya as bad as the snakes. This spider is a Huntsman, which is harmless to humans, so no worries.
