  • US site Bored Panda has collected some of the most cringe-worthy designs 
  • From a penis shaped pool to a gardening tool named after Covid-19

People from around the world have been sharing the hilarious designs which show how badly wrong it can go – with US viral gallery site Bored Panda collating a few of the most shocking.
