These Posts Are Just Proof That Someone’s Always Having A Worse Day
Life isn’t always breezy. It can sneak up on us and take us by surprise as it knocks us to the ground. Sometimes, we have great days. Other times, not so much. Whether it’s an issue of your laptop crashing right before deadline, dropping a tray of eggs after you’ve just mopped the floor, mistakenly putting a red sock in the laundry with your beautiful white linen, missing the flight to your long-awaited island holiday, or something much worse, we’ve all had days where we wish we’d stayed in bed.
There’s something oddly gratifying about knowing someone had a worse time than us. And that’s why Bored Panda has compiled a list of totally unfortunate posts from people who could win gold in the Terrible Day Olympics, if there ever were such a thing. Keep scrolling, and don’t forget to thank your lucky stars that you’ve never made this list.

One Of The Screws Holding My Spine In Place Snapped
I had a L4-L5 / L5-S1 spinal fusion. I was sitting at my desk when I felt (and heard) a huge snap in my back. Almost immediately I couldn’t feel or move my left leg.
Turns out that one of the screws snapped. My surgeon was able to add another s***w but had to leave the broken piece in there. 0 out 10 stars - would not recommend.

Girlfriend Found The Engagement Ring A Week Before I Was Going To Propose
I've had the ring for a little over 2 months now. Hid it behind some old books on the shelves in my office. After some of our friends started posting old yearbook photos in our group chat, she ran to go look through our yearbooks too. It didn't occur to me until too late...
We have a trip to Chicago coming up within a week. So much for surprises.
