Sometimes, we stumble across things in our daily lives that don't make a lot of sense. They might not be functional or they might just look horrible, but either way, they probably shouldn't have been made without some quality control and common sense. The subreddit /r/CrappyDesign is devoted to these things, because they can be hilarious, visually unsatisfying, frustrating or all at once.
At least they can help us feel a little less embarrassed about all those posters we made as kids where we didn't measure before we started writing the words and wound up having to scrunch the letters in the corners. That's basically the vibe each of these things gives off, except at a much larger commercial scale, and honestly the people behind these should feel bad for what they've cursed our world with. Here are some of the most unbelievable examples of crappy design from this month found trending on the subreddit.

It takes some squinting to figure out what the designer's logic even was, but even then, it's still a disorganized monstrosity.
This $500 Swimsuit Is Not for Swimming

Finally, what we've all been looking for: a swimsuit you can wear, but not actually swim in. It's impractical, uncomfortable, overpriced and just plain confusing.
