The history of humanity knows many cases when literally one person ruined everything good for all other people. Whether it's a traitor opening a hidden gate in a besieged impregnable castle, a coward who abandons formation, rallying against a cavalry charge, or a kicker who misses a decisive field goal in the final seconds of the Super Bowl...

A distinctive feature of such situations is that they are remembered, cut into the public memory no less than a cavalry wedge bursting into a gap in the infantry monolith of Roman legionnaires, or, for example, the desperate commentator’s cry: "It goes wide!" And then in threads like this one by the user u/KeanKho, netizens eagerly bring up this and many other similar stories. And we, Bored Panda, then collect for you a selection of the best...

Even if he was right, (spoiler alert: he's not) I find the implication that being autistic to be a fate worse than death to be extremely offensive.

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group Maybe this isnt a single persons fault. But, i feel like for those of us with chronic pain from major accidents (or syndromes or diseases), the people who abused opioid use has made it hard for everyone with legit problems.

    I broke my neck, hip, and 20 other bones in a car accident. My drugs are so tightly regulated, that if theres a hang up of even 12 hours, i can run out of meds. And im not even taking heavy pain meds just enough to work. I feel like im the lucky one vs stories i hear of cancer patients, people with longer term issues, or diseases. Between the pill mills and the pharmacies, those with real issues were f****d.

    In fact, traditions and precedents play a big role in such stories. After all, if something unpleasant happened once, then it definitely can happen again and then over and over. And if so, it should be prevented. And it is not in vain that they say that every line of the army charter is written in blood - this is absolutely true, just to ensure that one person does not later ruin everything this exact way. And it actually works... or that guy ruins everything in another way. That happens as well, you know.

    It's so wild that I never even thought about it before until I started seeing questions about sitting vs standing on BP. And I was a cashier for years (in the US). I think it's part of our "it's a privilege to work" and "you can't just work, it has to also look hard" type of attitude. Sitting down is associated with lazinessness in non office jobs. It would be cool to see it change.

    What can I say, after all, we all know one story about two people who ruined everything for literally everyone on Earth. As Paul Anka sang, “there was a story I'm sure you all know, I'm sure you remember and I know you believe - the story of Adam and Eve!” And if the whole of human history, at least according to one of the common versions, began with something like this, what can we expect from the humble and imperfect descendants of Adam and Eve?

    There is a beach on the West Coast, near Cambria, (Pismo Bob is correct, it is just north of San Simeon/Heast Castle)that has elephant seals, which like to bask in the sun. One girl was there with her family and she was throwing small rocks at one of the seals. Her family said nothing so I had to yell " CAN YOU PLEASE NOT DO THAT ! " to get her to stop.

    “Probably, each of us has a similar story behind us, and sometimes we ourselves act as such a weak link,” says Valery Bolgan, a historian and editor-in-chief of Intent news agency from Ukraine, whom Bored Panda asked for a comment. “In any case, when we are in a hurry to stigmatize the guy who suddenly made everything bad, we need to try to put ourselves in their place. After all, in the end, it is they who often feel the worst of all, desperately trying to overcome such a burden on their soul."

    “A classic example can be cited from sports. In 1994, the FIFA soccer World Cup was held in the USA, and it was marked by two dramatic stories. In the match between the Colombian and the USA national teams, the Colombian defender Andres Escobar, by coincidence, sent the ball into his own goal. Colombia lost - and a few weeks later, Escobar was shot dead in his hometown, and with each shot, the attacker hysterically shouted: 'Goal! Goal! Goal!'"

    ADVERTISEMENT

    “But in the final match, another tragedy broke out, though not fatal. In the penalty shootout that determined the world champion, the best player on the planet and that tournament, the Italian Roberto Baggio, missed at the decisive moment. He was subjected to devastating criticism, but he managed to cope with nerves - and at the next World Cup, when he went out to shoot a penalty (and this happened several times), he scored every time. Therefore, when we accuse someone of causing us inconvenience - just think, how do they themselves feel at that moment?" Valery ponders.

    Turns out a couple of years before I was hired on, they used to give boots. But one guy would take his boots and sell them, then request a replacement, then sell those. He did this about 20 times before anybody caught on because of municipal bureaucracy being slow to notice. When they caught on, they stopped giving out boots to their employees.

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group This is going to be buried but I have to share it in hopes someone sees this and laughs.

    I used to work for state government in Alaska. I was reviewing some department policies to update and I noticed a particular statement in the employee behavioral policy about adhering to basic hygiene (expected) and wearing clothes at work (not expected). I went to my boss to ask him about that and the look on his face told me I was in for a good story.

    Our department had satellite offices all over the state and in some very rural, very isolated areas, these were nothing but glorified shacks. Local fire brigade shows up to one of our shacks in middle-of-nowhere to find a department employee standing outside the burnt building, in the nude. In February. Turned out that the guy, who was the only on-site employee, happened to be a nudist. Now, no one can work naked for the state of Alaska. What a bummer. 🥲

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group Back around the mid 2000s I was around 10 years old and I used to go to this place after school called “the Boys and Girls club”. They had an area with multiple basketball hoops on a court which we used to play all kinds of games in; one of those games being dodgeball. These were not those big rubber balls but instead the styrofoam filled balls with kind of a thin layer of plastic so otherwise… harmless. One of the kids thought it would be a good idea to shove a rock into one of the balls and throw it at someone he didn’t like; well he ended up throwing it right into that kids face and broke two of his front teeth. We never played dodgeball again.

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group Had a job where as a dialysis nurse where we added a position to pick up add ons and emergency cases that came in later in the day. In this role we worked noon to midnight which helped us cut down from needing a nurse on call every night to maybe once or twice a week. Whoever took this role didn’t have to take call and had weekends off. We loved rotating through this role and enjoyed taking a break from having to be on call and enjoyed having weekends off.

    Then there came the nurse who went out at 7 am instead of noon, and finished at 5 pm. When there was an add-on or an emergency case she wouldn’t answer her phone, which meant which meant everyone had to go back to picking up extra patients and being on call again.

    She did this every time it was her turn to go through the rotation so they eliminated the position and we went back to having to be on call all the time.

I work at a YMCA as a swim instructor, so two people decided to [make love] in their break room at a different Y in another city.

It’s so frustrating, now when we’re all cold and damp in between lessons, and after lessons are done, we can sit in the lobby, or sit somewhere on the pool deck which takes away spots for kids or parents.

    I get what you’re saying, but I think that as citizens, we should all worry about our criminal “justice” system, and how we treat prisoners- especially those who have been sentenced to death. I have struggled with cases like his myself; on one hand, we want the most harsh and severe punishment for a man like this. “He killed a black man simply because he was black” doesn’t even *begin* to describe his horrific, inhumane acts.OTOH, there are statistics galore about how the death penalty targets minorities, the poor, the young, the mentally challenged- and DOES NOT act as a deterrent. Don’t even get me started on how many folks have later been found innocent due to advances in forensic science. Sometimes found innocent after it’s too late. I believe that we need to err on the side of not executing anyone. For those who are guilty, spending life in prison is the harsher punishment. For this monster especially, death was “the easy way out.”

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group At a certain point in US Army basic training, your platoon is givin the "opportunity" to sit and eat without having to wait for the entire company, AND with that comes the fact that if one person is finished eating, we're all finished eating.

    This one trainee who happend to sit early finished his dinner before the other side of the table even got to start. He stood up, the the DS promptly made everyone else get up too, eaten or not.

    This same trainee did the exact same thing the next day, except now it was breakfast, so a few people didnt get dinner OR breakfast.

    I'll never forget the nasty s**t they did to his bunk and locker dude. Couldnt really feel bad for him, and you best believe NOBODY stood up early for the rest of BCT.


    Edit: Wow this blew up overnight! Im gonna try to answer a couple questions I've read.

    What'd they do to his bunk?

    They took the used/dirty mop bucket water, pissed in it, and dumped over his bunk and foot locker. This happened on a Sunday morning which is the one day the DS will leave u alone till noon. The perpetrator was at church lol

    Was it intentional?

    No. The first time was a genuine mistake as it was a brand new rule. I actually watched him the second time. He started to stand and realized his mistake, but the grumpiest DS saw him do that awkward stand-sit movement and that was it for the table. Luckily I wasn't on the table that lost the breakfast, but I still felt no sympathy for him. No dinner + "whatever you can eat out the door" breakfast woulda had me join in too.

    Was he stupid?

    Yes.

    Some channels add a blurb of swearwords at the beginning or end of each video to prevent Kids from grabbing their content now because of that

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group I'm a contractor and I work in different kinds of plants and mills. In one mill I worked at, we had a gravy job, two hours of easy work, and get paid for twelve hours. Well, one guy decided he was going to charge them for sixteen, and now we get two hours for the job.

    I’m glad non flyers aren’t allowed to take up space at the gates. There already isn’t enough seating.

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group That stupid baseball player that took like ten ephedra and died of a heart attack. My mom and I used to take one and clean the whole house! Why can’t people be responsible with their drugs.

    The first hotel I worked at allowed employees to become patrons and have drinks in the hotel bar after their shifts. My coworker and I noticed the security guy giving us the stink eye from the lobby while we chatted up two young ladies who were guests of the hotel.

    Insulted that he would assume we might try and get frisky with these women, we called it a night and headed out. We went out the back employees-only door, and in passing the security officer’s office, we decided spitting all over his door was a justifiable response.

    Turns out the security guy had followed us out, stealthfully beating us to the exit by way of the hotel’s second floor. He stood silently in the shadows of the 2nd floor stairwell and watched as we defiled his office door.

    That’s why since 1996, employees can no longer grab after work drinks in that hotel’s lobby bar. Because of me. I’m sorry…

    Hotels will fire you for fraternizing with guests anyway and all employees know it. This dude is an idiot

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group That time outside of the Cage at UMass Amherst when there was a looong line to get into the basketball game, and me and my friend tried to slickly cut with a friend who was closer up in line, but another friend saw us quietly moving and frantically ran to catch up to us, and this caused EVERYONE to start running toward the front and it turned into a near riot, with people trying to squeeze through the doors. Eventually everyone made it in okay, but it did make the evening news as a ‘riot’…

    So, thanks Jeff 😂

    Two planes hit the twin towers. One hit the Pentagon and one crashed in a field due to the bravery of some passengers who broke into the cockpit and incapacitated the hi-jackers.

    30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group In the 80s we had this game called British Bulldog, it was fun and a laugh for all involved. Then Barry had to clothesline a skinny kid and collapsed his wind pipe and all of sudden Bulldog got banned and we couldn't choke each other out anymore.

    Thanks Barry.
