Whether you’re building a piece of IKEA furniture or experimenting with a new recipe for dinner, clear instructions are always an important factor in ensuring the final product is a success. But unfortunately, we don’t always have access to the most helpful directions, and sometimes the people trying to follow those directions seem to have forgotten their common sense at home. So to raise awareness for the importance of clear instructions (or to laugh at those who can’t seem to follow them), the Instructions Unclear subreddits were born.
Below, we’ve gathered some of the most hilarious posts from these groups that will remind you to always dot your I’s and check your T’s when explaining how to do something, or the outcome might be a hilarious fail. Be sure to upvote all of the photos featuring mistakes you might have made yourself (don’t worry, we won’t tell) or those that you can’t believe anyone managed to make. Feel free to share more hilariously unclear instructions you’ve encountered in the comments below, and then if you’re interested in checking out another Bored Panda article featuring times instructions were written poorly, you can find more funny photos right here!

My thoughts too. The event is a “wedding”. The “marriage” is a lifelong commitment.
Load More Replies...Grammar aside- to me, and having gotten similar invitations - sometimes people just want you there to celebrate. They don't care if you give them anything - they want you there because you, not things, are important. Coming from a multi-lingual background - this makes perfect sense. This person would not have written to you if you weren't important, and if they hadn't wanted to celebrate with you. I get how you read it, of course. But this couple just wanted you there.
Exactly! This invitee seems to be overthinking the situation. If you are their friend, of course they want you to come.

The photos on this list have been gathered from two subreddits dedicated to calling out the world’s most unclear instructions and the people who follow directions without any consideration for logic. Combined, r/InstructionsUnclear and r/Instructions_Unclear have over 5k members, so there is no shortage of wonderful posts on their pages that might make you involuntarily facepalm. From people seeking help after having trouble following directions to photos of the confusing and misleading instructions themselves, we hope you enjoy this list of photos that might make you lose a bit of faith in humanity.
We know you pandas are smart enough to not have any trouble following directions, but sometimes it’s hard to know just how competent other people are. That’s why it’s crucial to remember that any time you assign a task to a child, student, employee, or your significant other, you go into great detail. Or make sure they feel comfortable asking any questions they may have. Common sense is not always super common, and it’s easier to prevent messes and mistakes than try to fix them later.

Load More Replies...I recognize the method behind this move! It works like this: someone asks you to do something for them, something that you really don't want to do, so you do such a bad job of it that they will never again ask you to do anything for them... My son tried using this on me when he was younger, but I told him that not only did I know what he was trying to pull, but that I practically invented it!
Load More Replies...When it comes to providing instructions on how to do something, it can be difficult to know how much detail to include. Being too precise might sound condescending, but leaving out too many details might leave you disappointed in the final product. If you ask for onions on your sandwich at a restaurant, you might want to have your server clarify if the onions are white, red, raw, marinated, caramelized, etc. As easy as it is to forget, all of our minds work very differently, and something that may seem obvious or implied to you might be completely different to what a friend or stranger is thinking.
Depending on your profession, you might be giving instructions out more than you’re following them. If you’re a manager or supervisor and you often delegate tasks, there are a few things to keep in mind that might help your employees understand exactly what is expected of them. According to Alice Dartnell at LifeHack.com, it’s important not to make any assumptions. “Whilst most people in your office or business will be intuitive and switched on, they are not mind readers,” Alice writes. “An imperative when delivering clear instructions is to not assume the recipient knows what you mean, and this can be for anything from industry acronyms to who to contact in different departments or organizations. It will only take you a few seconds more to explain the details.”

There's no time to get naked for the choke. It's not like the bear is going to wait.
Depends on the bear. But a park ranger once told me that talking loudly to/at the bear confuses them enough to make them bugger off. There's a nice video on youtube of a Canadian dude who notices bears in his yard - so he opens the door and just says "you guys need to leave" - and they do
There's also the Finnish (I think) guy who yelled "Perkele!" and the bear ran away confused

No More Dog
This looks like a very permanent solution to a very temporary problem
Always clean up after the dog! I won't pick up the poop until the dog does it first.
Alice explains that it’s also crucial to be clear and specific when assigning tasks. Rambling on will waste people’s time and allows employees to get bogged down in the details, but being unclear will lead to confusion or many follow up questions. “Personally I prefer not to butter it up, and would rather get straight to the point of what needs to be actioned or delivered, rather than making the instructions too flowery, which will only confuse,” Alice says.
“For example, don’t just instruct ‘send a selection of the briefings to a few key stakeholders’, instead state how many stakeholders and to whom, and what briefings! I often find it helps to bullet point as it reduces the temptation to waffle on and it helps your instructions and actions be more focused,” she added.

I tried googling it with no luck. After further inspection, my best guess is that it has to do with which direction to move if someone is trapped underneath. The image seems to indicate the person's leg is under the wheel. So either: big wheel = move backwards, little wheel = move forward or (and this seems so intuitive you wouldn't need the images) move away from the person in whichever direction means not driving on them any more than necessary. That's my guess...

Attention
This happened to me once. Stepped off an elevator into an empty floor. The renovators had literally stripped the building to supports and concrete. It was strange because three days before there had been a nice carpeted lobby there, and offices beyond.
Must have felt like a glitch in the matrix ...
Load More Replies...Wow! It must have been quite a job lifting up the five floors above the 9th floor in order to move it to the 15th floor, not to mention how confused everyone was when they got out of the Elevator on the 15th floor and found the 9th floor staring them in the face.
I got a notice on an elevator one time that said a certain floor was semi-permanently deactivated.
Following super simple math, you’re going to find the floor in between the two of them, so you’re gonna want to go to floor 12.5, obv! /j
Load More Replies...When providing details for your instructions, it’s important to clarify time frames. Words like “soon” are vague and can lead to misunderstandings, so make sure your staff is on the same page by defining timelines as accurately as possible. Examples can also be very helpful when you’re assigning a new task that your employees haven’t done before. “This will help to add clarity to your instructions and help form a clearer picture of what it is you mean and want,” Alice explains. And if exactly what you want is not feasible at the moment, providing alternatives can be useful. Alice explains that this empowers your staff to get the job done without having to bother you every step of the way, and it should save everyone time and energy.
What Do I Do?
Pull your poo out of toilet, put the poo in your coat pocket, take the poo home, and dispose of your poo in your loo.

Got so scared he'd get in trouble he grabbed a shopping bag and transferred the poo from the bad toilet to a good one. He earned the name "Sh-t Thief." You never know how you're gunna get your call sign...
Such amateurish behavior to call some one name like that, it doesn't even make any sense. It's his s**t he's dealing with how's he a thief?
Load More Replies...Made a party and didn't want the toilet to not be clogged but tampon and stuff like that, so I made a sign "don't throw anything in the toilet". The trash can was full of used toilet paper... I guess I'm lucky they didn't litterally s**t in the trash can.
So, #1s and 2s on the floor. Wipe and throw tissue in toilet then flush. Understood!

Instructions Were Unclear
Julian, are you the ex soccer player from Lancaster?
Load More Replies...The instructions look pretty clear to me and the driver nailed it imho
If you’re an educator, you know how important clear instructions are when assigning tasks to students as well. Whether it’s by accident or to spite you, kids have an incredible knack for twisting words and following instructions in the worst possible ways. Thankfully, award winning teacher Nancy Barile, M.A.Ed. created a guide for giving clear instructions to students (that they’ll actually follow). First, Nancy notes that the language used is very important. Avoid vague terms like “a few”, “some” or “a couple”, and clearly articulate your expectations. “Providing a strong, detailed rubric with the assignment can also make both the teacher's and the student's job clearer and easier,” she adds.

Load More Replies...I Need Someone Conceived Of In Vietnam To Assemble My Chair For Me!
The manual says "made in Vietnam" but the joke title calls for "someone conceived of in Vietnam", if we want to get technical, the conception is basically just the design phase of things. The rest of the pregnancy would be the construction phase. Also, the birth would be a product release. So if we want someone made in Vietnam, we don't really care where the conception happened or where the birth happened, only that the pregnancy happened primarily in Vietnam.
English instructions hardening in cement...must read French insrtructions!! LE GRILLE - what the hell is LE GRILLE! (Homer Simpson)
Just a Ho Chi Minhute ! Surely those bolts should be M15s ?
Nobody likes to do something that feels pointless, so Nancy goes on to explain that when speaking to students, it’s also helpful to explain the purpose of the task. “When you explain to students why they're being asked to complete an assignment, they're more able to appreciate the experience,” she notes. “Connecting the task to existing student knowledge, previous lessons, or covered material will help students feel more confident about tackling the task.” Having more context can also help if they don’t understand any of the instructions. If they know the end goal, they’re more likely to problem solve on their own along the way.

When Am I Supposed To Take These ??
*Standing creepily at your bedside ready to shove pills down ur throat* : )
Medicine for folks who tend to wake up in the middle of the night and have a hard time falling back asleep. Poorly worded, but it just means make sure you have at least three hours before you have to be alert and moving.
I assume this means that... if you take one, try to time it so that you can get at least three hours of sleep afterwards? Like, don't take it at 4 am if you have to get up at 6, but if you wake up around midnight, it's okay?
3 hours before waking, it says so right there! Have you never taken medicine in your sleep?
As you go to bed, you put a tablet in your mouth, under your tongue and let it dissolve as you sleep
Is This What They Meant?
"This page left blank intentionally" has confounded me since I first saw it
I worked at a University ages ago, and we occasionally used that term in our printed Annual Reports. Each department had a separate chapter in the report, spanning several pages, and the printing rule was that each chapter had to start on an odd numbered page (i.e. 1, 34, 59, etc.). So, if a page had to be skipped in order to follow this rule, we would insert a page with the words "This page was left blank intentionally" printed on it for the page left blank, so that the reader wouldn't think that a page had been 'unintentionally' left out in the printing process.
Load More Replies...Good answer. If they ask what race , say no but walk fast, if they ask sex, then sometimes.
Just like examples can help employees complete tasks, they can be helpful for students doing assignments as well. “In 1965 (but I remember it like it was yesterday), my first grade teacher had us create an alphabet booklet,” Nancy shared. “I was excited about the assignment and worked hard on it every day for a week. After I handed it in, I realized that many of the students had created clever covers for their booklets. Because I didn't have an example to mirror, I didn't include a cover, and my pride in my work quickly faded.” Examples can answer many questions a student might have, and they’re a great way to ensure students are on the right track with an assignment.

yeah glad they didn't cover up the picture of the actual thing the manual is referring to

Load More Replies...Feeling confused is never fun. And while it’s important to have critical thinking skills and know how to problem solve, clear instructions help take the guesswork out of any task or assignment. Detailed directions can also help students’ confidence, as they’ll feel capable and competent rather than lost. “Giving clear instructions to students can ensure that they fully comprehend what they need to do to achieve in your classroom,” Nancy writes. “It will ease students' nerves, assuage their insecurities, and help them confirm your expectations so that they can be happy and successful in school.”

Well when I was a a student I stored my paper tissues (the foldable ones in small packages) in the freezer - it was the only place I had space left and where I'd find them. I had no better place to store them...Keeping the freezer bags in the freezer does make sense to me.

Inside was a life sized mannequin sitting on the loo and as the door opened towards me this mannequin snatched very hard on the door slamming it shut with a loud voice booming, "Oi!

My Phone Screen Protector Did Not Come With Instructions So I Checked The Back Of The Box. Let's Start With #1 Shall We
i found it!! i cannot explain why, but it was copied from this joke from 2012 on a forum called ChinaUnix: "Mr. Johnson had never been up in an aerophane before and he had read a lot about air accidents, so one day when a friend offered to take him for a ride in his own small phane, Mr. Johnson was very worried about accepting. Finally, however, his friend persuaded him that it was very safe, and Mr. Johnson boarded the plane. His friend started the engine and began to taxi onto the runway of the airport. Mr. Johnson had heard that the most dangerous part of a flight were the take-off and the landing, so he was extremely frightened and closed his eyes. After a minute or two he opened them again, looked out of the window of the plane, and said to his friend, 'Look at those people down there. They look as small as ants, don't they?' 'Those are ants,' answered his friend. 'We're still on the ground.'" (link: http://m.blog.chinaunix.net/uid-26857768-id-3206992.html)

This Doesn’t Sit Right With Me 😂
looking at the punctuation & clunky phrasing, i think this is a sign made by an uber driver who speaks english as a second language. they meant to say "please don't slam the door, thank you" or something to that effect. i think they did a great job getting the point across with a limited vocabulary while they're still learning! even without perfect english, you can clearly understand they're asking passengers to be gentle with the door. not a strange sign at all :)
I think you're right. Slam is a hard word to translate and it's obvious that's what they are trying to say.

Instructions Literally Unclear
how is that unclear? it means you have to go inside first so you can be assigned a table, given menus, etc. it helps the waitstaff keep track of how many people are where & how long they've been waiting.
No idea how you got downvoted. Anyone who worked in service will know that someone will sit outside without telling anyone, then storm inside after 10 minutes ranting and raving about the disgusting lack of attention they received.

Wait A Second.... I Didn’t Know The Passenger Side Had The Steering Wheel
Too all my fellow USAians who's about to say in USA that's where steering wheel is. Read the instructions again - slowly.
I am very concerned if the steering wheel is on the passenger side. That is the correct side for a steering wheel in the USA, but that's also where the driver sits in the USA. Source: I drive in the USA.

The Steps To Open An Air Freshener
This isn't instruction on how to remove it from its packaging. If you actually read the instructions, it says to remove more or less of the tree every week to increase or decrease the level of smell. The Yankee one I have is the exact same.
Agree, the Air Freshener Trees actually have good instructions.
Load More Replies...But this says everything in order. There's nothing wrong with this one if you just read it, or ever read one.
Those numbers represent each week, it's supposed to make them last longer.
Packaging like this I usually end up ripping open with my teeth, because all of the 10 pairs of scissors I own have disappeared again.
Except for the new pair of scissors which is still in its packaging because it can't be opened without a scissors
