There’s always fails to be had when people don’t quite read the description of something they’re buying.
Maybe you end up a kids’ set of toy cooking utensils instead of actual usable items or perhaps an outfit for a doll instead of a human. Either way, it usually means it’s useless.
But for one group of friends, it ended up being a hilarious story.

And now people actually want the miniature thing they accidentally bought.
Racking up millions of views on TikTok, a user shared a video with the in-video text reading: “We bought a smaller box of Cards Against Humanity thinking it would be less cards.”
Now, you’ll likely know of the popular Cards Against Humanity but if not, it’s basically a pretty adult game where you fill-in-the-blanks with usually rude or offensive words and phrases.
The game is huge nowadays, after first being released in 2011 and you can get all sorts of versions of it - including a family-friendly version.

The original ‘main game’ has 600 cards in total and then you can scoop up extension packs with even more cards.
So for a simpler game, it’s understandable why these friends may have hoped to pick up a pack with ‘less cards’ in.
However, as the video shows, they actually ended up with a smaller version of the game in physical size, rather than quality.

The friends sit holding tiny cards, looking rather serious as the caption reads: “We played the whole game.”
But despite this mishap, users commented to say: “I NEED MINI CARDS AGAINST HUMANITY RIGHT NOW. Where did you get it!?!?”
And another had already rushed to grab them, commenting: “I immediately bought them and don’t regret it, it’s so funny.”
While a third put: “Wait that would be so fun to bring to places tho.”

Turns out you can buy the miniature pack yourself with the ‘Tiny’ version available on Amazon for £19.
Including all 600 cards from the main game, the description says: “Perfect for camping trips, shrink-ray mishaps, or smuggling into North Korea.
“Measures a minuscule 2.6" x 4.4" x 1.8" and weighs 9.7 oz, with 1.25" x 1.75" cards.”

It also jokingly claims to be 'America’s #1 goldfish coffin'.
Users joked it’s ‘such a Cards Against Humanity thing to do’ while others revealed the ‘same thing’ had happened to them. Many also said it’s ‘truly the nature’ of Cards Against Humanity.
