It appears that some have a little bit of trouble deciphering satire on the internet. People can be very oblivious to hidden messages, or pretty clear ones, too.

Humor can be difficult to recognize at times, but it's never quite as difficult as the people in this collection have made it. These people have completely missed a message that should have been rather easy to figure out. Sometimes, it's not even difficult satire to understand, either, and it's a rather obvious joke.

In fact, this apparently happens way too often. So much so that the subreddit "Woooosh" exists. In this sub, users document all of the times people have really missed something that they shouldn't have missed, especially when it comes to pretty explicit humor that everyone else seems to get. Yes, it's kind of embarrassing for these people, but pretty amusing for the rest of us.

Here are 15 failures who should really hire a translator.
