15 Cases Of Bad Luck Proving Your Day Could Have Been Worse

Reddit probably isn't the best site for optimists to spend their time, but the images shared here can give us a nice reminder that we're not the only ones having a miserable time. When life gets rough, it's good to know that it could always be worse. Watching other people suffer can bring us peace in a strange way (they're posting their L's voluntarily, of course; they're okay with us making a mockery of their misery, because that's what Reddit's for, after all). It's good to know we're not doing so bad after all, at least in comparison to these people.

The world is never fair, but it seems to have it out for these Redditors. Perhaps they've committed some great atrocity against the universe itself in a past life. From minor inconveniences to the less-than-ideal consequences of owning a dog, these images prove life could be worse. These are some of the best images of people's misfortunes in the past week.
