You bring home a new table and unpack the box. You then take a look at all the bits and pieces laying on your floor. A white piece of paper catches your attention. Pfft, you think to yourself, I can do this on my own. Fast forward a few beers and headaches, and your table has become a chair. And a flimsy one at that. You admit defeat. You open the instructions manual. But after turning a few pages, you become even more frustrated: the drawings are terrible. They’re more confusing than helpful. What should you do now? Take a picture of the awful guide and submit it to the subreddit r/RestOfTheF**kingOwl, of course.
Inspired by this legendary comic, its members are showing off tutorials and diagrams with a comical lack of depth. They accept YouTube videos, photos, and gifs, and have developed quite a taste for the vague and puzzling. Not to mention, they’re also well-versed in satire.
Below are some of the subreddit’s top posts. Enjoy!#1

No, you’re reading them wrong. First time you drink 1 glass, second time two glasses, third time 3 and THEN the bookshelf will assemble itself!173ReplyView More Replies…View more comments#3

This is actually the only way to accurately determine the age of a tree. Tree rings are not accurate, since there could be no rings one year and three rings another year.36ReplyView More Replies…View more comments#12

I like that Google gives stupid answers to stupid questions, or humorous answers to questions that does not have a good and well defined answer. E.g. Google once just showed the calculator showing 42 when asked what the meaning of life was (refernce to Hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy). It gives it less of a big coorporation machine feel and makes it seem more human and relatable, and is a good way to apear to give an answer to an unaswerable question. If it is a friday today, then seven weeks from now it will be a friday to, that should not be that hard to figure out, hence hinting at the solution and mocking people a little is fine by me.39ReplyView More Replies…View more comments#39

I think the instruction basically boils down to “fold or stuff the jacket into the indicated pocket in whichever way you like”. Step 2 is just supposed to show that the content of the pocket is the jacket itself; step 3 shows that to close the pocket, you have to turn the upper part of it inside out.14ReplyView more comments#45
