Whether we're talking about the subreddit Crappy Design or the Instagram account Ugly Irish Houses, the Internet seems obsessed with tasteless crimes against aesthetics and functionality. If you are too, the Twitter account "Cursed Architecture" is right up your alley.

Its hellish content includes strange angles, melting paint, vaguely threatening toilets, stairs that lead to nowhere, and more. Basically, the kind of stuff that architects and interior designers would imagine in a horror-comedy. But believe me, you don't have to be an industry pro to appreciate these pictures. They're so bad, us regular folk will get them as well. Enjoy!

I wish I was this foresightful few years ago before I dropped my keys down the elevator shaft

Oh, boy. I'd hate to see the look on a burglar's face when he drops his lock pick!

I dropped my keys down an elevator shaft once at university - in that space where the door slides. Chaos.

I dropped my keys in one like this once. As if that weren't insult enough, my keys somehow got tangled up and locked onto the grate. It felt personal.

At work the toilet roll holder opens with a key, that has to stay in the lock when you fill it. Fine. Except it dangles precariously over the toilet bowl the whole time just threatening to fall in.

Have to park almost in the street to keep tailgate from opening over a huge grate. Way too fumblefingered to take that chance!

And they all thought I was an oddball for keeping my keys on a keyring made out of a tanned crocodile tail segment as long as my forearm. Well who's laughing now, beeyatch?! (Actually I got the idea from those cafes and such where the toilet key is on a comically huge keyring so nobody can sneak it into their pocket and it's almost impossible to lose).

There is something similar (but way larger) at the entrance of my workplace.

They should have just let the people use the squat toilet... also... how disgusting do you think the inside of the cone is?

Check the door down the hall for a nice stab in the back.

Was this meant to be a suicide door, or was there supposed to be a porch?

How is this so far up? It's neither architecture nor cursed, but just a bad photoshop.

Oh, God - the 70s. You can bet this combo also came in purple, brown and "harvest gold"
