It’s that time of year again. While most of us are hanging Grandma’s Christmas ornaments on our trees and drinking Swiss Miss hot cocoa, others are not so traditional. These Christmas designs and human fails will make any elf blush.
1) Flirting Santa?
This ad design is not what we would expect this time of year. It appears that Santa is one step away from fishnet and he’s flirting with the camera. Excellent legs though.
2) Not Even the Baby One
This big toe ornament kind of looks like Baby Jesus. Or is it the other way around? Either way, big toe is still part of the equation and that severed body part is not something anyone ants on their tree.
3) They Did Try
This is a classic Pinterest fail. You see a beautiful garland tree online and you think you can recreate it. Well, you can’t. The ornaments are too big, your linesa re messy and your lights are a disaster. Plus, not enough garland! And you call yourself an elf!
4) Didn’t Order Krampus’ Reindeer
This little Rudolph pancake is cute, but life isn’t always what we expect it to be. What they received was a sad reindeer that someone deserves to be fired over.
5) Never Going Home
It looks like Santa has been harassing this poor little boy and all he wants for Christmas is for Santa to let him go home. Doesn’t look like a possibility.
6) Not What it Looks Like
This is what happens when you use bell chocolates instead of kisses. You can see them anyway that you want to but we all know that they aren’t very Christmas-sy.
7) Feeling Convicted?
Fox News must think that treason is all the rage this Christmas. This poorly placed cross really ruined the whole point of this segment.
8) It’s a Party
When this guy had to work Christmas Eve, he got excited when he was told there was a nacho bar in the break room. Of course, the cheese is shredded and you have to put everything back when you’re done. Looks so appetizing.
9) Hang Your Undergarments
These Christmas lights look a lot like underwear, let’s just say it like it is. We’re not sure what they were supposed to be, but it was a complete failure.
10) Growing Up is Hard
This older brother is feeling the weight of being the older brother this Christmas season. Instead of an Xbox One, he got cups. Who needs to grow up anyway?
11) Another One Bites the Dust
The inspiration is definitely there, but it looks like someone tried decorating hot cookies or didn’t use enough powerded sugar. Now that’s not very elf of you, is it?
12) He’s At it Again
Now this is one sad design. It’s not clear what Santa is doing but it is clear that he’s up to no good.
13) Santa Delivers
This mom ordered a Christmas present for her son and it was delivered to their door…in the original packaging. You’d think that this time of year, they would disguise at least the kids’ toys.
14) Better Than Turducken
Someone was drinking a little too much wine and forget their turkey in the oven. For like…a really long time. This just might be the most overcooked turkey on the internet.
15) You’re Only Hurting Yourself
This family pulled up to their yard at night for the first time after decorating. They were met with two sets of soulcrushing eyes. It’s time to go nutcracking.
16) Special Ingredient
This secret ingredient is a little more common than you think. But would you pay $8 for it? Santa only gives us this chance one a year and Bear Grylls says it’s fine if it’s sterlized.
17) This My House
Imagine looking at your snowglobe and seeing this bad boy guarding it. You know what? It’s yours! Keep it forever. I mean, he’s inside the globe for goodness sake!
18) Now That’s a Bow
This just might be the strangest way to tie a horse’s tail. If done to a real horse, that’s something that we would have to see because it’s magic. But it’s also pretty disturbing.
19) Should Have Left a Note
There’s this tradition in China where you send money in red envelopes so people know not rip it open. Well, somebody didn’t get the message. Hope the bank can replace it!
20) Oh, Deer
This creation looks more like the sleigh than the reindeer, to be honest. And even at that, it’s a pretty sorry one. Those Googly Eyes probably aren’t even edible!
21) Merry Christmas
This is the worst date ever to increase someone’s Netflix bill. At least you can get all of your Christmas movies in before your life is ruined yet again.
22) Mrs. Claus?
Those are cheeks, everyone, just to be clear. Though this shower cap is not packaged well, those are clearly beatiful, rosy cheeks belonging to Santa.
23) This Explains a Lot
So is Santa eating a bunch of pills or did he open one of those that it says not to open? Either way, he’s advocating pill popping and that is just insane.
24) Read It Yourself
Doesn’t matter how hard you try, you can’t make sense of this sign. Does it say asthma? Who knows? Could be something much worse. Whoever set this up is a horrible person.
25) Take a Leak
So, whoever decided it was a great idea to make a wreath out of a bed pan and portable urinal is one messed up nurse. Always blame the nurses, they are tired and underpaid.
26) Reinderr What?
Who in their right mind thought it would be an awesome idea to pour green icing over their cookie tree? Look at the picture and recapture it. No original ideas allowed.
27) Classic Santa
This Santa created the Naughty List and you’re all on it! Mwahaha! He is ten times scarier than Krampus and crazier than attempting a Christmas Pinterest creation.
28) Nurses Gotta Stop
Nurses really need to stop coming up with Christmas decorations. Not only are there pill bottles galore here, but there are actual pills glued to the bow.
29) Hi Guys
This poor Santa is unrecognizable without the reference. He looks like he wishes a, “murray Chrysler to all and to all a gud noot.”
30) The Soul of Mrs. Claus
Either Frost the Snowman is cheating on his wife or Mrs. Claus’ soul is out for vengeance. Maybe because no one ever called her by her first name.
31) Too Early
Is this what happens when you try to get your Christmas tree down too early? Does the spirit of Thanksgiving punish you? If so, I’m guilty as charged and would do it again.
32) He’s Captured Them All
Remember all of those souls that Hades keeps in that lake on Hercules? Santa does not approve. He prefers to keep them in his beard. Children only.
33) Shun the Non-Believers!
This sad believe mug looks like it was found at a murder scene. Those stains are not the least bit Christmassy depsite the mug being marketing that way.
34) Merge the Holidays
This is what happens when someone who loves Christmas, Thankgiving, and Halloween equally decorates. They keep the decorations up through every holiday!
35) Good Thing It Didn’t Rain
These people ar e lucky they still have a car after accidentally leaving the window down overnight. They may have gotten “snowed in” but it’s a Christmas miracle that it wasn’t stolen.
36) Serves You Right
For having sushi for Christmas dinner. Wait, maybe that’s deviled eggs. Who am I kidding? These poor people didn’t deserve this broken table, but at least his legs are safe.
37) Missile Toe
Get it? Someone thought it would be funny to hang a Missile Toe for people to kiss under. So far, there haven’t been any takers but that’s just because they’re not inviting the right people.
38) It’s a False Alarm
After speaking to lawyers, this turned out to be less of a big deal than it first appeared. But his boss did deduct his Christmas gift from his check.
39) You Never Know
No one is ever going to see your face mask so why they make character ones, we’ll never know. But if you have to have one, don’t pick Santa. It’s about as creepy as you can get.
40) Merry Christmas, You Filthy Animal
It is now safe to say that Santa should be on the naughty list this year. While these peeople tried to make it look like Santa was fishing, it looks like he’s vandalizing their deck with his own bodily fluids.
41) No More Sudoku
Poor Santa is not feeling it this year. While this may have originally been a cheerful decoration, it is anything but joyful. Santa advocating what he appears to be advocating is the worst design decision ever.
42) All Hail
Was this a mistake or a troll employee? Those bears chose Christmastime to worship their lord and savior in the middle of the mall? Have some respect.
43) It’s a Medium
This woman ordered a cute Christmas sweater in a Medium. Turns out, it was a Medium kids’ size. But isn’t that her fault for having the same taste as a five-year-old?
44) Turtree?
This sad Christmas tree has seen better days. What it was supposed to be, we’ll never know but this mall thought that a brown swirly tree was a good decision and all we can do is shake our heads.
45) It’s Not a Lie
This was the picture they thought they were getting and they actually got it more accurately than they expected. It was a picture of what was pictured? This is confusing.
46) At Least She’s Pretty
This girl’s beauty is the only thing saving her from utter embarrassment. Other than that, those nose trees will make your own nose itch and your lip twitch.
47) That’ll Teach Him
Elf on the Shelf is always getting into trouble. But he really outdid himself when he hid in the ceiling lamp and burned his own leg off. That’s gotta hurt.
48) Yeah…Reindeer
Is Lindt about to go bankrupt or do they just thik that we’re dumb enough to believe that those are reindeer? It even says “reindeer” on the package. Next spring we will see the Easter Reindeer visit.
49) Only One
We all know the true reason for the season, no matter your beliefs. But Santa here, he is sick and tired of that baby stealing his spotlight. Now this is a mindblowing design.
50) Not Even Charlie Brown
You know what, quality only matters when you expect something better than you get. You know, like if the picture on the package is a full tree and you get a branch.
51) Peeping Tom
There’s all kinds of things wrong with this picture but the worst of these is that peeping tom on top of the womens’ dressing room. I mean, this was in a children’s book!
52) Not Even Sorry
This was obviously on purpose but we’re still shaking our heads over it. After all, kids drive by this yard and will be traumitized for life after seeing Frosty’s family.
53) Well Worth It
This makes sense because before Christmas, you want trees all over the house. But after Christmas dinner? That tree won’t help what you do to the in-laws’ bathroom.
54) What a Name
This is a dad joke in more ways than one. It’s a great pun and it’s from this guy’s son who is named Dad. Now that is quite a name to give someone.
55) Someone is Proud
Someone is so proud of their accomplishments that it’s really weighing them down. Them and their tree. They hung all of their medals on their tree and it makes me feel dizzy just looking at it.
56) Making a Living
Not sure if this snowman makes his Christmas money on that pole or with that snowball he massacred his friend with. Either way, he is for sure on the naughty list.
57) That’s an Expensive Gift
Someone got a hoverboard for Christmas and crashed into the oven. That ruins Christmas dinner, cost a fortune, and means they can’t use it in the house ever again. Bad day.
58) Angels We Have Heard on What?
This angel is definitely on something and she’s definitely high. That is a face that only a mother could love and I don’t see any angel mothers around.
59) Heart Attack Central
Someone walked around the corner at JC Penneys and was quite startled by this abomidable snowman. He seemed so friendly on the show too!
60) Christmas Flatuence
This may say “Facts” but that’s not what it looks like. The old time font was not the best choice for a Christmas card. Although that is a lot of farts.
61) Didn’t think this one through . . .
All is nice and Christmas-y . . . that is until the foil wrapping comes off.
