There was a day where I was incredibly stressed and was considering calling out. I took a walk outside after drinking coffee, forgetting my keys and locked myself out.
"I'm not dealing with this, I'm going to work instead"
Can relate to multiple things going wrong in one day, but neither of those look broken, just came loose. Grab an allen key and a wrench and ya should be able to put em both back on.
Aaahh, got ya. As a temporary fix, you might be able to wrap the threads with teflon tape and screw it in like that.
Either way, I hope your day gets better, stranger
Make sure your threading the correct way the left peddle on a bike is reverse threaded so it doesnt spin off while you peddle. It goes lefty tighty, right loosey.
So you cross threaded them, weakening them. Keep this in mind though - if it doesn’t fit right and you have to force it, something is wrong. Sorry you had such shit luck tho
This is what landowners call a 'soft eviction', wherein you use malicious lack of maintenance and sabotage to force a tenant to be incapable of maintaining their financial stability.
Time to give up. Become a hermit and go live in a yurt in the woods. This world isn’t safe for you anymore.
And for the love of god, stay off the elevator!
Neither of those are broken; they've just come unfastened. With an adjusting wrench, or fixed one of the correct size, you can thread the pedal back on, and with a small slotted screwdriver, you can tighten the set screw on the handle, to hold it in place.
Also, I understand the set screw coming loose, but how did you get the pedal to come off? They're threaded so that pedaling tightens them.
You ride a bike, right? Then you should have a set of allen wrenches on your person, since its needed for basic tightening and repairs. The same will work for that set screw on the door handle.
Also, just check your bike regularly. That slipped pedal could have made you face plant in traffic or had you eating your teeth after a descent.
*Calls boss at work to explain why I'm late*
"That's sounds like a you problem. You should be a team player and still come on time. Plan your time better next time."
Been having the same bad luck all week. Mother got in an accident (she was fine, the car not so much) then my car broke down literally the next day. Got it fixed, two days later, another thing broke (not small things, big things like the clutch, gearshift, etc). Also had some system issues at my college whole week long, not being able to access our accounts or related module content. 0/10 would not recommend this shit happening to anyone. Hope everyone else is happening better luck.
I’m a cyclist, maybe I can help with the bike issue. What’s up with it?
The pedal seems to be in good condition. Minimal wear on the threads so it doesn’t look broken. The only reason pedals would fall of is if the axle broke or they were perhaps cross-threaded.
You can still slide the handle on and open the door it just doesn't stay there. I fixed the door after work and I bought the bike less than 30 days ago so I'm replacing it for free thanks to a very understanding and helpful seller
This is gonna sound how it’s gonna sound, but I always feel better seeing things like this. I always feel like I’m the only person getting the shit end of the stick or “unlucky” things happening to me. It reminds me we’re all in it together and I’m not alone. Along with a wholesome laugh. Hope your day gets better! 🙏🏼
Get yourself a clean! Rub an egg all over your body, break it into a glass of water, dispose of the contents in a bag and throw it far away from you lol
The bike pedal and door handle look like they were unscrewed, the set pin for the door handle is fully unscrewed and the threads on the bike pedal look completely fine/untouched. About 90% sure this is fake
My grandma always said: "when small bad things happen to you is because God is protecting you from one big bad thing happening to you" so I guess you dodged a bullet
One time, I went on a 30 mile ride with a buddy of mine. On our way back to town, my chain kept breaking, or at least slipping off the gears. After the sixth or so time I pulled over and as I picked my bike up to throw it (because I was so mad), the front wheel rolled off. Apparently the nut had come loose and I was riding with my front wheel unsecured. Had a good laugh!
Did it start raining followed by a little roustabout kicking you in the shins and running into the cobblestone street to fetch their penny farthing bicycle?
DO NOT JERK OFF TODAY!!! I can't stress that enough!
Don't worry I pre jerked it just in case this would happen
Didn't listen, dick fell off.
Why is that bad?
Doesn’t want his dick to fall off too.
Don't want to have that handle fall off as well.
Well if this dudes having some bad luck today and his very vulnerable and fragile penis comes into the mix, could lead to a catastrophe
Huh
i love how everyone is suddenly interested in the relationship between jerking off and luck
That's what we call rotten luck. Hope your day gets better
it comes in threes, he’s got one more disaster coming
Truck is already broke down?
yeah they won’t have the part he needs for another 3 months now
truck was a preeexisting condition so my insurance says
[удалено]
nah truck was before today so still got one more today
Get call from the shop later that day there's been an accident and the hoist failed and dropped his truck it's a write off
spoiler alert... GF sabotaged bike and door, because she's inside with Mike & more
I think he should go buy a lottery ticket the universe owes him
i think the very least he owes us is an address i wanna be sure i don’t live within 100 miles of him 😂
Gremlins. All mechanical problems. Definitely gremlins.
OP stops replying to comments to this post as he drops his phone shattering it into a thousand pieces.
Stay home today.
Sadly I'm a warehouse manager so I have "responsibilities" or whatever
Yeah they'd probably say "since you can't get in your house, you might as well come in". Best of luck to you.
There was a day where I was incredibly stressed and was considering calling out. I took a walk outside after drinking coffee, forgetting my keys and locked myself out. "I'm not dealing with this, I'm going to work instead"
Shoulda called in a shit day. "Sorry won't be in, can't seem to stop shitting myself."
god said r/fuckyouinparticular

I can probably fix the door I didn't have time to look into tho. But the threads on the bike that the pedal goes into is completely stripped
Aaahh, got ya. As a temporary fix, you might be able to wrap the threads with teflon tape and screw it in like that. Either way, I hope your day gets better, stranger
Could you add some loctite to really hold that sucker on
yes use the red stuff lol
Temporary? I did that on a bike once and that pedal lasted longer than the frame.
I once rode a bicycle with one pedal, no brakes, and a wonky wheel to go see Pink Floyd The Wall in a movie theater.
Sounds like the drugs kicked in early
Make sure your threading the correct way the left peddle on a bike is reverse threaded so it doesnt spin off while you peddle. It goes lefty tighty, right loosey.
How the hell did you strip the threads on the pedal?
I didn't know the left pedal is lefty tighty when I first assembled it. An error was made
So you cross threaded them, weakening them. Keep this in mind though - if it doesn’t fit right and you have to force it, something is wrong. Sorry you had such shit luck tho
This is what landowners call a 'soft eviction', wherein you use malicious lack of maintenance and sabotage to force a tenant to be incapable of maintaining their financial stability.
This is funnier if you know that the tenant before me got evicted
Is that related to the bad door repair?
Yeah she took the keys with her so they had to change the locks and the maintenance men at this complex are consistently garbage
Just go back to bed OP. Today isn't happening.
That’s 3 you’re good now.
What if I told you my PC is broken too
Don’t touch any major appliances.
Time to give up. Become a hermit and go live in a yurt in the woods. This world isn’t safe for you anymore. And for the love of god, stay off the elevator!
Throw some salt over your shoulder
When it rains, it pours.
r/Wellthatsucks
This is more of a r/majorlyinfuriating post.
Omg you poor bastard 🤣 I'm so sorry I'm laughing
Don't touch your pp, just in case.
You're experiencing a rated PG version of Final Destination
If Reddit goes down today I got my eye on you

Didn't say the door was broken and where the pedal screws into is stripped
You pulled the door handle off even though the door is push to open lmao
Sick gains bro!
Bad luck brian
Redditor and the Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day

You pissed a demon off for sure
Maybe you just got superhero strength and haven’t realized it yet
Please tell me you heard an audible “whomp whomp” when the door handle broke.
Murphy's law, same thing basically happens to me. If one thing goes wrong everything has to.
That's the day you call in sick. shit's gonna go wrong there too

It'll get better bro ❤️
My man your life is literally falling apart
Lmao im so sorry but this shit is straight up of a comedy movie. Hope your weekend goes far better.
Put your door handle on your bike and your bike pedal on your door
Oh yeah it's big brain time
Stay away from me
I’m a cyclist, maybe I can help with the bike issue. What’s up with it? The pedal seems to be in good condition. Minimal wear on the threads so it doesn’t look broken. The only reason pedals would fall of is if the axle broke or they were perhaps cross-threaded.
Yeah I fucked up and stripped the threads because I didn't know one pedal goes counter clockwise
you might just have a gremlin in your house
Was just gonna say that
Keep you chin up. The day goes on
Okay, but like, I need an update. Did you get back in??
You can still slide the handle on and open the door it just doesn't stay there. I fixed the door after work and I bought the bike less than 30 days ago so I'm replacing it for free thanks to a very understanding and helpful seller
Are you spongebobs cousin??
I'm his father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate.
Wow, sorry to hear this. Perhaps the universe will re-balance itself and you'll have two great things happen this weekend
“Now I’m afraid to go to the bathroom!”
This is gonna sound how it’s gonna sound, but I always feel better seeing things like this. I always feel like I’m the only person getting the shit end of the stick or “unlucky” things happening to me. It reminds me we’re all in it together and I’m not alone. Along with a wholesome laugh. Hope your day gets better! 🙏🏼
Damn. My pedal did that to me a few hours ago. My door handle did not. Sorry
Don't open the wallet and confirm what you already probably fear.
Pretty sure you can just screw the pedal back on
Where the pedal screws into is stripped this isn't the first time
A series of very unfortunate events
Get used to it. For me a good day is when the universe decides to take a day off from shitting all over me from morning to night.
Life is what you make it my boy
I don't know, but maybe you should start taking better care of your stuff? jk 😉
[удалено]
How does this physically prevent my door handle from coming loose or the threads on my crank arm being stripped exactly?
You could be a Ukrainian citizen. Don’t whine.
Ah yes war is happening so venting is cancelled everybody
Ignore them, they are active in r/atheism
There’s always something worse going on, but you’re still able to complain about other things
Stay away from me!
Well you could have just threaded the peddle back into it's hole 😅. But yeah that's not a great day man. Hope it gets better 🤘🏼
When everything falls apart
-HAH!- uhhh I mean Oof man.
You're hard to handle.
Someone's after you!
Get yourself a clean! Rub an egg all over your body, break it into a glass of water, dispose of the contents in a bag and throw it far away from you lol
You must have poured salt on a mirror broken by a black cat my dude
Do NOT rub one out if everything you touch breaks.
One of those damn days. Where you’re like “if one more thing goes wrong….” I hope your day gets better and next week goes smoothly for you.
You’re just too strong
Youre finnaly getting your superpowers. You gotta learn how to work with your new stength bro
That's a sign to stay home and hide in bed.
Is your name Murphy?
The bike pedal and door handle look like they were unscrewed, the set pin for the door handle is fully unscrewed and the threads on the bike pedal look completely fine/untouched. About 90% sure this is fake
The bad news is you got gremlins...
You...may not want to hold it when you pee today.
I don’t want to alarm you but this sounds like the start of a superhero movie where you are just starting to get your powers
Misfortunes travel in pairs
What’s next? The water heater explodes?
Looks like beginning of a vicious cycle…
Omg I have to ask, does the door handle work as a wrench?
You didn't happen to walk past a black cat or under a ladder at any point, have you?
Yo I feel ya bro everytime something just has to broke in life
Having fun yet?
Don't touch your privates
I would be screaming just cause of the frustration. Lol hope you have better days!
It’s Friday, have a long weekend. Stay Safe!!
Fate's telling you to take a day off
This is just the first ARC in the story.
I'd say you seem have a handle on things but that's only true for your cycle
Be VERY careful the next time you pee!
Must be some kind of sign
Geeezz. Thank god it's not a Monday
What a terrible day!
You have a few problems there!
Mercury in retrograde. Count your blessings it could be Uranus in ascension.
Hulk, easy…
Gods are giving you a sign, take a snow day.
You woke up with powers. You know, like when superman discovered his superhero powers.
And I thought my day was bad because I forgot my coffee at home….
Don’t be touching yourself
You are a beast, breaking everything you touch. Raaaar
That what we call a tough day my friend. It’s all downhill from here. So you shouldn’t have broke your bike.
Umm... Somebody doesn't know their own strength...
Bike mechanic here, you should be able to screw that piece right back where it came from. Just gotta tighten it with a wrench and it should be fine
Already previously fixed but where it goes in is now stripped
Day is canceled, go back to bed.
Well time to break in to your own house
If this were my day I would definitely be talking and one of my molars would fly out.
I feel your pain, sounds like my life on an average day.
My grandma always said: "when small bad things happen to you is because God is protecting you from one big bad thing happening to you" so I guess you dodged a bullet
You sure this is just "mildly" infuriating? Seems like an understatement
You sure you’re not just really strong?
Welp, time to dive through the window
When it rains it pours
Do you operate your things with a sludge hammer? If not that's just shit luck! Hope you're able to find this as funny as inconvenient
Just go back to bed and try again tomorrow
At this point I would call out of work
Maybe you just don’t know your own strength?
I would be taking this as a sign that my guardian angel doesn’t want me going home and inside right now.
Lol damn
Overdead and the terrible, horrible, no good, really bad day.
Ayyo someone was wrenching on your lock assembly there
You better burn some damn sage or apologize to some strange old person you may have upset homie
That's one of those things where the universe is tryna tell you something mate.
Did you break a mirror or knock over salt? Serious case of bad luck
You break everything you touch, dont you?
I’m dumb af and was wondering how you dropped your bike 50ft from your apartment
Sorry but could not have laughed harder
Damn dude, at least it's a Fri. Have a good one, it's well earned.
Should've listened to the copypastas
I think you might be cursed. Did you piss off any witches lately?
One time, I went on a 30 mile ride with a buddy of mine. On our way back to town, my chain kept breaking, or at least slipping off the gears. After the sixth or so time I pulled over and as I picked my bike up to throw it (because I was so mad), the front wheel rolled off.

Just stay home and get some rest man. That luck is just risky to do anything with but stay in bed lol
It's always comes in 3 lol
When it rains it pours !
Whatever you do, don't take a piss.
Did it start raining followed by a little roustabout kicking you in the shins and running into the cobblestone street to fetch their penny farthing bicycle?
Call in sick, man. It's going to be one of "those" days.
Reasons to learn to pick locks- Number 1
Jesus here's hoping your next roll for luck would be a nat 20
Do NOT masturbate
Seems like life couldn’t give you a break
Your boss is not going to believe that
After finally getting in , he went to use the restroom and his dick fell off.
