NOTE
The version this was tested in was 1.8.4, 1.8.7, and 1.8.8. 1.8.8 was the version that was used in the video and the error occurs in all 1.8 versions and not just 1.8.1.

In my creative world I switched my gamemode to survival and tried to break blocks nothing. I couldn't place any either. In my survival world I switched to creative to get a jukebox and records and the record wouldn't play. I switched to survival and tried to break the juke box and put it down again since it wouldn't work and I couldn't break it I tried to break some stone next to it and I couldn't. So now my survival world is useless. I think this started around father's day (2015) too.
I have made a video of my issue at this link:
