Reading The Hot Rock by Donald Westlake currently. What I'm loving is that everything is going wrong for the main characters as they committing crimes. I think it's hilarious. No one is physically hurt. So it's a pretty light hearted, fun read with some situational justice
What other books have things that just keep going wrong, by chance or by someone's design, maybe in a silly way or a way that feels like justice?

House Of The Scorpion by Nancy Farmer
All of the Dortmunder books are like that! My favorite rereads when I need to laugh.
The Sideways Life of Denny Voss by Holly Kennedy perfectly captures this theme. Lighthearted, funny and touching. Cannot recommend enough!
The Pigeon by Patrick Suskind.
A pigeon landing outside a recluse’s home changes his life in a single day. It’s also a very short read
