29 people who misunderstood the instructions and got it spectacularly wrong
There’s a rather fabulous corner of Reddit called r/peanutbutterisoneword which is full of examples of people who thought they’d followed the instructions, yet got it magnificently, hilariously wrong.
Here’s how it describes itself.
“Ordering a custom label and giving instructions, only to have the instructions printed on the thing you ordered? How about an engraving saying “I want this left blank” or “Hello, Mike! Underneath that, I miss you.” This is the sub for that!”
And here are 29 times it was at its very best (worst).
1. This toy ball I bought tried to take a stand
2. Scott Disick, enough said…
3. They’re usually in the top two
4. ‘Received flowers from Grandma with this card’
5. It took seven minutes to realise their mistake
6. Something tells us this might be counterfeit
7. Oolong, not too long
8. Mildly infuriating
9. ‘What kind of cake do you want?’
10. ‘Surpriiiise!’
11. ‘A Welsh classic’
12. ‘Generic tweet for after the debate’
13. ‘Recently invited to speak at a conference …’
14. ‘Thanks To My Friends, Birthday Time!’
