16 Hilarious Fails From The Internet This Week That Were Just So Funny I Had To Actually Make A Post About Them

I'm laughing so hard.

Happy Monday and happy holidays, my ever-glamorous BuzzFeed readers. Welcome to the weekly post you know and love where I sacrifice myself (spend time on Twitter) to bring you the absolute funniest internet fails of the week. Enjoy!

4. Gravely misunderstanding a child:

I only realised my daughter was misreading the gingerbread man recipe when she announced that we needed "either one or four teaspoons of salt." I looked & saw that we needed 1/4 tsp of salt. By this point I had already added one or two teaspoons of ginger, mixed spice & cinnamon.
