Sometimes, corporations or social media accounts will post something that looks pretty bad in hindsight, usually due to an unintentional innuendo. It's often hard to say if this was done on purpose, except in cases where they delete the post within a few minutes, which exposes their shame. But with some posts and products, it feels more likely that this wasn't an accident caused by failing to inspect what they were sharing with the world. A lot of the time, it seems like an advertising employee wanted to have a little bit of fun.

The following images are just a few cases where people probably knew exactly what they were doing. While some may bash these companies or social media users and claim they messed up in an embarrassing way, it just feels more like these were done intentionally. We can't prove it, of course, but take a look at the images below and decide for yourself if "they knew."

I hope they didn't know
