Ad placements are important, and a lot of people don’t get that. Imagine yourself reading a wholesome article about cows then you look to your left and see an ad for cooked veal.
However, regardless of how it ruins a serious topic, or how these unfortunate coincidences turn dark in an instant, it still makes us laugh in the end. Here are 50 unfortunate ad placements that end up being hilarious
1. What you looking at?
You could immediately tell how bad this looks. These YouTube originals’ posters have unfortunately overlapped. When put beside each other, it looks as if Hollywood actor, Ryan Reynolds is trying to know how flexible the lady could get.

2. Cow supremacy
These billboard signs should be nowhere near together. The one above is asking you whether where you’ll land if you die. Either way, tell them that the cows sent ya.

3. Savage Home Depot
This funny tweet with an unexpectedly dark twist becomes a hundred times funnier with the Home Depot ad below. Home Depot proudly declares that there are more ways to get stuff done.

4. Watching this with a beer in your hand
This drink delivery ad seems to be making fun of the Australian comedian Fiona. As this person watches a video of her opening up about alcoholism, this ad of JimmyBrings just makes watching this awkward.

5. At a certain diaper aisle…
This image of a kid with chocolate all over his face is probably not the best one in this aisle of diapers. This makes people have the wrong idea. Who is even in-charge in this section?

6. Obscene ads
To those who decided to put their ads on these billboards are probably good friends or something to pull this kind of dirty joke. If not, then this unfortunate coincidence is just a giant dick. These ads could earn negative results though.

7. Twitter auto-crops are the worst
When uploading a large image at Twitter, the AI would crop that to a certain size. Unfortunately, ABC News’ image of singer Dolly Parton announcing her birthday got cropped in a bad way. The whole world was focused on Dolly Parton’s chest.

8. Dolphins aren’t as fast as they tell you
This adorable video shows how fast a dolphin could move around the water. However, the news article below it is a bit of a killjoy. It’s a relief that those three guys were caught though.

9. Horse meat
The above post was just showing the majestic side of horses. However, the one below seems to be interested more in its meat. I wonder if the person who asked the question also belonged to the same subreddit where the horse was at.

10. Swim anyone?
The newspaper’s layout editor is probably drunk or unaware because this frontpage is just terrible. The guy put an article to encourage swimming while on the left side, you can see tragic news of a man drowning. This information would be too much to handle.

11. Scary coincidence
This man missed the train because of his chatty owner. Even though the picture is unrelated to this person’s case, you’d be relieved that that person didn’t get on the train.

12. YouTube recommendations
YouTube’s algorithm is a bit confusing. One day you’ll find a bunch of random stuff on your main page without knowing the reason. Sometimes it could turn into something like this.

13. Is this who they’re looking for?
This news article was reporting about a missing 10-year old girl but for some reason, this random ad is placed at the center. Now it looks like that this sleepy pooch is who they’re actually looking for.

14. Avocado phobia
The YouTuber above made a 48-minute video explaining why she’s scared of avocados. Meanwhile, the Mukbang YouTubers below look like they’re having fun having an avocado explode all over their face.

15. Took the ad seriously
This tragic news article is about a boy whose eyes were poured with bleach by school bullies. Considering this context, it took an even darker route when this Clorox ad beside it had a very gruesome slogan, “Pour with confidence.”

16. I guess there’s happiness here in some way
This online shop brags its slogan, “the joy of selling.” Ironically, one of the products posted were two wedding rings for the reason “Wedding canceled.” Maybe they’re happy in a different kind of way.

17. Wrong ad to put beside a hospital
This ad looks like it was meant to advocate animal anti-killing. However, when put beside a hospital, it could give off a different meaning. Hopefully, that hospital doesn’t actually butcher their patients there.

18. McDonalds strikes again
Above is an article about the government calling out to big companies being subsidized with starvation wages. Although, McDonald’s ad below seems like they’re ready to fight back. “This isn’t an ad. This is an opportunity.”

19. This is not the way to advertise your business
If you realize that you have a bad name, make sure to at least place it in a good way. R. De Cock, a construction renovation in Belgium, printed their name on their trucks in an awkward spot. If you read it, it would be very explicit.

20. You can see the fire from there
This coincidence is way too funny. Above is a wholesome post about the red sunset that looks like fire. Unfortunately, below is news of an actual fire happening in California.

21. At least put them in a better order
These three shops occupied the spots to display their brand outside. However, the order seems a bit awkward. Reading from top to bottom, it reads as, “Kohl’s Staples Dicks.”

22. Chocolate milk madness
This magazine layout is terrible, especially on this specific page. It looks like the woman from another page was producing the chocolate milk from her butt. Why did this even get approved?

23. The food seems more tempting
The person could be trying to consider going on a Keto diet. Unfortunately, Domino’s ad below the video might have ruined it for him.

24. Jesus is watching
The Roman Catholic church decides to rent an advertising spot to spread the message, “Jesus is watching.” However, above it is a signboard that reads “Adult Videos.” Anyone who passes by here could get the wrong idea.

25. You gotta respect them
This shoe store was too excited to post their discount sale outside that they failed to consider its placement. From a passersby perspective, their slogan, “Respect Your Shoes,” was given a new meaning.

26. They’re hiring
While browsing Reddit, this person reads a post about the death of Jens Knudsen, the inventor of Lego. Although the ad besides the post was from Lego as well! Apparently, a job slot suddenly became available…

27. What are they selling again?
The owners of the kindergarten were thinking of selling their place. However, as they put the “For Sale” sign outside, they placed it somewhere awkward. Outside it looks like they’re selling something else other than the kindergarten.

28. Did the other cow did it?
There’s a picture that shows a cow hugging its owner while another cow looks at them with jealousy. However, the ad below seems kind of a killjoy. Was it the jealous cow who did it?

29. The coincidence looks realistic
These bus stickers of adorable children pointing something is a bit confusing. However, when a scooter crashed underneath, the stickers suddenly makes sense. Although in a horrible way.
30. Differing standpoints
The ad strips inside the train are funny to read especially when you’re alone and bored. Most of the time, you’d discover badly placed ads and burst out with laughter. This one is an example.

31. Father’s Day is coming
This Father’s Day advertisement just made a tragic news article even more horrible, especially because their products are kitchen knives. Who even decided to put this ad here?

32. Two more connects and bingo
This bagel shop decided to make BINGO sheets of ineffective face masks for awareness. Although, the third one on the second row seems awfully familiar.

33. What Starbucks really is
This Starbucks branch isn’t paying attention to where they painted their logo on their van. Now every time they open it, “Starbucks” suddenly becomes “Sucks.” That said, they shouldn’t leave the door open.

34. “Guy on Fire”
After Googling “Guy on Fire,” it showed two different results. The photos above are people literally on fire while the other is a Cookbook named the same way. Although, I’m confused on which one this person really wanted to search?

35. Are they expanding locations?
This certain news article tells the story of how they uncovered 1 million euros worth of Marijuana. However, Facebook had the wrong idea and decided to show an ad about gardening groups.

36. That was a quick find
UK TV presenter Dermot O’Leary’s news about his ring stolen was uploaded by BBC news. At the same time, BBC also posted another news of a man searching for someone who lost their wedding ring. Maybe O’Leary should check it out.

37. The Knife Game
This person was playing a fun trivia quiz on the Trivia Genius site when he happened to witness something funny. While on a question about “hands down,” an unexpected ad above its photo weirdly fit together. It looks like it’s about to play the Knife Game.

38. Quick transition
Somehow looking at these ads feel like you’re watching a transformation story. One day, you’d find yourself eating a Quarter Pounder this time but the day after, you’ll suddenly declare to be healthy. Regardless, these ads are way too contradicting.

39. Unappetizing ad
This weirdly suggested ad just made a recipe unappetizing. Moreover, the ad was placed directly above a Garlic Paneer image. The position is just too gross that you won’t feel like eating anything afterward.

40. Movie competition
Placing a movie poster of Anne Franke’s “The Diary of A Young Girl” here is a bad idea. Most especially when this stall was supposed to be for another movie carrying almost the same name as hers.
