This poorly placed advertisement takes away from what is happening in this ad! At first glance, this bus quite obviously belongs to some kind of robot baby-making facility.
But then you realize that all this is — is a funny error. One so bad you forget what exactly it was you were looking at, to begin with!
This Water Has a Kick To It
We're not going to lie - we love a good ol' drinking fountain. When we're walking down a corridor in a hospital or a public area, we can't help but quench our thirst for one of these bad boys. But whoever adjusted the settings to this one, or built it in the first place, was way off when calculating the power of the faucet.
What's worse is that the water could hit the power outlet and give whoever's drinking from it an electric shock! And no one wants that. Not the drinker, not the owner of this fountain, not the owner of the building. Nobody.
Lost in Translation
Someone at this company took the easy way out when they were asked to translate a sign for this company. Instead of using a book or even Google — they went to a translator service. They typed in whatever this sign was supposed to say — and what they received in return was a solid gold fail!
The website they were using couldn't connect, and someone either wasn't paying attention or didn't know English that well because this is awkward! Hopefully, some kind-hearted tourists helped them out by pointing out the error!
Out of Order
When will designers ever learn? People read horizontally, not vertically! This is a classic case of someone not thinking about how people read. So, it seems as though this signage says, “SASA LELE,” whatever that may be. Luckily, it looks easy enough to rearrange the letters.
Hopefully, the manager realized that was the issue when that sale wasn’t bringing in any customers. Or, maybe it was the manager who put it up in the first place?
They Really Know How to Flip My Lid
Those plastic lids are attached to the top of a carton. Yes, they are there to safely open it so that the liquid inside doesn't go flying everywhere. It's also another measure to preserve it. So how on Earth did this faux pas happen? Who wasn't paying attention when this safety lid was applied to the carton?
Another question worth asking is this: How many of these Rubicon cartons experienced the same fate? Because we can see many being returned, which is obviously going to suck for business. Unless it was a mistake caused by the mass-production machines in the factory. But of course, a human adjusts those settings so...
