Let's be honest, some people are not meant to be designers. I'm not saying that they have no talent at all, more likely a lot of their ideas just "sound better in their heads". However, luckily for us, their creations serve as great amusement.
With that in mind, I asked our fellow pandas to share a picture of the worst design fails they've seen and was happy to receive some funny images! So, scroll down for a good dose of laughter. If you have anything to add, you're more than welcome to do that!

Don’t Do That
Middle left, is it no vomiting or no doing lines on the lid.......🤔 Plus what's that k**b for? And chill beans?! I accidentally upped my comment while trying to edit and don't want to downvote myself to fix it. Argh it's way to early....😝
Chilli Beans is a Brazilian sunglasses company that tries too hard to be "cool"
Load More Replies...There must be a reason for those signs .. they can’t just make them up.
I can tell you, from doing commercial cleaning for years, some of the bathrooms are beyond your worst nightmares😳 How so many ppl have shot gun diarrhea is mind blowing
Load More Replies...the top two are the actual ways toilets r used and its not crossed off
Load More Replies...Whahaha😆 it's because drunk people do the craziest things! I seriously walked in the bathroom in a upscale hotel in Vegas and a girl was straight taking a s**t in the corner next to two perfectly clean inviting stalls!! WTF!
Are you for real?!? No way ...now that's some good 'ol fashioned crazy s**t right there! (No pun intended)
Load More Replies...Usually having a sign posted that forbids something shows that particular action has happened at that location before and it had negative outcome that shouldn't happen again. Those last four have to be joke? Please tell me they're a joke.
Dam I love fishing in toilets and giving myself swirlies party poopers
No vomiting? Love to see you keep a woman with morning sickness or someone on chemo from vomiting.
So no throwing up in a toilet...exactly where is the person to throw up then, as I'd assume the floor would be an even worse option. 🤔 last I checked throwing up was not usually a voluntary act.
I saw this on a sign when I was in Italy and took a picture. My dad got ahold of it and now the picture is immortalized in our family’s calendar
it's sad that someone actually did that if they really had to put that sign to start with
I think I have done more of these than I should admit, it's all a bit fuzzy.
Nice to know standing in front of a toilet staring down into it is a approved method of use. Just saying for a friend.
I got nothing..the fact they need said signs scares me for the future of humanity!!!-- LOL
I've cleaned rest rooms and I would rather they throw up in toilet then like garbage can, or the floor.
We have all done the third one on the chart. It is called Praying to the Porcelain Throne
Honestly, if you're flexible enough to pull off the one in the middle-right, you should do it
For the top left X pic, I can assure you no one who vomits in that toilet wants to be doing so but what's the alternative?
No design flaw here. The bonus is you get to sanitize...things...while on the toilet.
Damn it, I always get my head stuck in the toilet when I use the bathroom! Looks like I can't use that bathroom...
They won't allow someone to vomit in the toilet? Do they prefer on the floor? As for fishing....umm your doing it wrong.
Yeah but why not the top left. I can think of a valid reason for that position.
This isn't a design fail, it's made for humor. Not practical, but humorous.
No fishing in the toilet. Why was that required? I genuinely want to know the story behind that panel.

Letterbox Organization That Pains Me To Look At
Aside from them being out of any type of order whatsoever, why are there three boxes with a 1 on them?
Duolingo Moment
For clarification: the circles around each word indicate that Duolingo provided these options and I had to put them in order. Duolingo is criticising it's own answer here
Incense Holder But The Ash Goes On My Shelf. Now I'm Using A Toothpick To Hold It Straight
From My Hometown. They Refuse To Change The Name
I lived in Burlington too. We always thought the sign for D**k's Sporting Goods was funnier. It read, "D**k's Coming Soon".
Designer: "I'm Going To Make It Look Fresh And DIY At The Same Time! Brilliant!"
Worst Design Ever. If You Know, You Know
For those that don't know... This is a military issue bag. It takes no less than forever to get into this bag. No matter what part.
Saw This On The Front Of An Insurance Company Building In Houston
Good Job Dude. Like New!
It almost looks like they were trying to copy the stitchings on a baseball
“I Don’t Get It! Ever Since We Put That Sign Up There’s Been So Many Calls For The Police!”
No Standing Anytime. My Mom The Rebel
Does no one else notice the tree in front of the sign? Nobody will see it from that side

It's Supposed To Say "No Trespassing"
Should Be "Gravures" And "Graphiques". This Is An Advertisement For Their Signage Business. Maybe Start By Getting 1 Language Right?
I Haven't Been Inside, But I Bet That These Two Doors Don't Lead To Different Places
I think they do go to different rooms. The one on the left goes into the shed. The one on the right might be like a closet. Hence the one on the right has signs for a fire extinguisher

Too Complicated And Hard
This takes the cake for worst article I have seen on the site. There were maybe 2 design fails if you are being generous.
I agree a lot are not bad 'designs'. Might retitle 'fails'. However, I am curious as to which two submissions you consider design fails? My thoughts are #2 floppy flamingo drink spiller, #13 hand dryer badly planned placement, #15 direction signs badly planned and #17 backpack badly designed.
Load More Replies...I used to have a photo of some teenage ninja turtles game with a typo, the electronic store said electorics
Wish I still had a picture of when we drove past a sign that said "Paradise" that had "closed" slapped across it. And yes, I know it made it into some book, but I did actually see it. Anyway, there are definitely some automobiles that belong on these lists, like old Fiats where you had to remove the dashboard and some other stuff to get to basic fuses, or just the rebuild of the hummer for tech bros to drive around the city.
