Eureka! The idea just pops into your mind, and it seriously feels like the best thing that happened today. For a brief moment, you ask yourself what could go wrong, but nobody was born with a degree in risk management.
One doesn’t need a study to state that 99% percent of those ideas are dumb. And that means you are left to deal with the consequences. Luckily, there’s a place to learn what not to do, known as the subreddit r/Whatcouldgowrong.
It teaches you a valuable lesson, which is basically that if there’s any chance the thing can go wrong, it most likely will. Spare yourself from post-What-could-go-wrong misery just like 3.9 million wise members of the group.

What Could Go Wrong If I Complain To Costco
It's great to see companies that stand up for the right thing, instead of backing down to every a*****e customer that thinks they are superior
That's obviously not what happened here. It's a spoof account.

Indeed, that should be top comment --- Costco itself won't put it that direct/clear.

You know that is not the real Costco. That is a satire twitter handle and pretends to be real companies to troll idiot.
why does his not knowing it's a real account make him an idiot?

Afterwards, Sharon and her sister Karen had a complain-off. There were no winners
Where I'm from, wearing a seatbelt is the law. No one complaining about that...SMH
Haha I love Ben Palmer’s stuff. It’s so satisfying to watch him troll people!
Sounds like Sharon is the new karen. or maybe sisters? Nicely said cosco👍
I'm pretty sure that is one of those fake accounts that mimics the real one, to troll people.
Listen Jack, we were okay losing Sharon's business, we don't mind if you don't like us anymore either. Let the culling continue, who's next?
Gotta love the liberties provided us by the personal distance of the internet. So many of us have our own "Jack" that we'd love to put in his place this efficiently. The question of whether or not to renew my membership with Costco or to try Sam's was just answered: "Hello Costco!!"
Doesn't matter if this is a spoof. Fiction can teach lessons just as well as fact.
Everybody expects everybody to be submissive! So, they can do whatever the hell they want and that's suck!
People keep saying that, but what about the stores choice? They also have the right to choose the mask mandate, don't they?
Yea, for Costco. Not everyone does have a choice but it's nice when given a choice, the correct one is chosen.
About time the stores started (and hopefully continue to) stand up to these "entitled" twots !!
Well responded Costco Wholesale, to the anti maskers who value their own opinions more than other's lives.
So if "Jack" "chose" not to wear pants as a choice, would he still get all pissy? It's not just about you, sweetie.
Not all will agree with this action (to not refund) but, I love the response!
Hurray Costco! Funny how these same imbeciles think that business owners should be allowed to "operate their private business as they see fit" -- when the owner is an anti-mask moron.
Way to go Costco. Lose two unmasked selfish people who won't make a difference, help protect hundreds of your shoppers making a difference.
Yes, everyone has rights. But other people's rights end, where my health begins. Just as my own end, where their health begins. Yeah, it's a PITA to wear a mask. But it's not that big a deal. It's not going to kill you. Corona virus, on the other hand? Well, that might. Look, if a NASCAR driver can wear a full-face helmet with a visor, along with a hood, a full-body Nomex fire suit, gloves, and earpieces secured with electric/duct tape, for five hours or more, all while strapped into the molded seat of his car with a five-point harness, innside a metal box that can get up to 135.5 degrees Fahrenheit, going 180 miles an hour, for five hours or more, without so much as a bathroom break, you can wear a tiny piece of cloth over your mouth and nose for 45 minutes, to go get some milk and bread in and air conditioned grocery store. Just wear the stupid damn mask and quit whining, Karen and Chad.
Brilliant answer! Very unprofessional but worth the risk. They don't care what you think anyway.
Hilarious,. NOW - grow the hell up and put on a freaking mask! It's not going to kill you. On the other hand, not wearing one WILL kill you! Which would you prefer?
You do have a choice. You kill other people with your stinking germs or you don't. I'd like to hope you would choose not to be a killer. If it is a member of your family that ends up dead after going through torture do you think you could live with that? I couldn't
Great, We would not want anybody stupid enough that does not want to keep themself or others safe. See ya in a couple of years.
The "Costco Wholesale" response here is not from actual Costco. Still hilarious.

Always check who can read your posts. Such mistakes have caused a lot of drama.
Bored Panda reached out to redditor u/Peanutbuttered, who is the creator of the internet-famous subreddit r/whatcouldgowrong, to find out more about their community. The redditor told us that after their friends introduced them to Reddit many years ago, they loved the concept of different subreddit communities allowing you to customize the content you wanted to see.
“I sat there thinking about ideas for a subreddit—at this time, it had seemed like every category had been thought of already. I thought it would be funny to make a content community where the only things submitted were just gifs of bad ideas with unfavorable outcomes.” u/Peanutbuttered clicked the button to make it go public, and the rest is history.

The community now has 4.0m members and gets submissions every day, but the creator of r/whatcouldgowrong said that it’s not up to them to approve the posts. “Reddit works by community voting, but we along with our content robots remove anything that doesn’t meet the rules,” they explained.
As r/whatcouldgowrong began to evolve, Reddit included it in a collection of popular subreddits where they “revamped the idea behind 'default communities,'” explained the creator. They said that since then, r/whatcouldgowrong “started to show up on the home page more often, which brought in more people.”
“The content is all pretty much the same, but the people participating in the discussion section of each post is no longer WCGW subscribers, but a combination of subscribers and general people from the rest of Reddit,” explained u/Peanutbuttered.

The creator of the community also said that their favorite submission is the one where “a guy is rolling down a hill in a shopping cart, and what happens is about what you’d expect. This is my favorite post because it inspired me to create the page.”
Even though u/Peanutbuttered is aware that their subreddit is for quick entertainment, it still provides a lesson to learn. “My hope is that people who are thinking of attempting a stupid stunt will rethink their decision or maybe recall a post they saw on /r/whatcouldgowrong. Then they’ll think, 'maybe I should not do this,'” the redditor said.
In fact, u/Peanutbuttered concluded that in a perfect world, r/whatcouldgowrong wouldn’t exist “because people would know what is smart to attempt and what isn’t.” But since that’s not the case, at least, they hope the subreddit can help to prevent an injury or save a life.

What could go wrong when you call in a bomb threat? A girl from my high school found out. She was supposed to be on ISS (In School Suspiension), starting after a break. She decided that she didn't want to. She and her stupid a*s friends came up with a "brilliant" plan and called the school to report a bomb. These hardened criminals forgot about little details - like caller ID and security cameras. If that wasn't bad enough, she had just turned 18, meaning she could be tried as an adult. She definitely got the extended vacation she wanted - 5 years of it in one of our lovely barred, lockdown hotels.
Albert Einstein said the two most common things in the Universe are hydrogen and stupidity. These pictures seem to prove the latter.
It has been a learning curve for me. Don't put fake blood on a lorry trying to go under a low bridge or you will flood the engine. Don't get out of motor to feed the monkeys or the bears wreck your car. Never park between trolleys or scaffolding or under bird infested trees. Do not use plastic or hide plastic in the oven, to hold hot oil or to throw ashes into. Stay away from dogs faces but get them to chew up the sofa. Tell mama her food is C**p and I've thrown all her dough in the bin! Avoid hair raising experiences.Oh yeah, don't be an on line karen to stores.
What makes me even sadder is how the educational system is letting people like this matriculate through school then graduate.
Well, we all make mistakes, if you say, no not me, wait for your turn, on the positive side, it's nice to learn, from others mistakes, I have made a few, no, not telling !!!
Why are most of my comments from yesterday deleted now? I didn't write anything offensive or politically incorrect. I really don't get this site anymore. This is not ok. Maybe I should just say goodbye to all commenting and social media, because this makes me feel like I am a bad person for no reason whatsoever. Whenever I am "cancelled" like this without explanation "bye-bye", I am not commenting anymore.
