In the internet world, it’s quite easy to accept everything as it is at surface level. They do it because everybody likes showing a perfect version of their life and if that involves a little tweaking of the truth, so be it. Sometimes, that means tweaking the truth a wee bit, even if it means we’re doing it to live.
These people thought they could get away with their odd and surprising posts; from exaggerated truths to flat out lies, until someone popped their illusionary bubble. Get ready to squirm from second hand humiliation!
AJR-U-Serious
We’ve always been curious about what the famous people do in their free time—assuming they have any. It’s possible that Harry Styles enjoys playing a round of Just Dance, or perhaps Zendaya secretly spends her downtime on Fortnite. At least now, we have some insight into what the popular band, AJR, isn’t doing when they are not performing or writing music.
The band’s endorsed reply was entirely unforeseen, curtly extinguishing the dreams of their friend. The mystifying question that hung in the air was – if it wasn’t Ryan from AJR who was on that Xbox, then who on earth was it?
Let’s Bee Honest
It’s undeniable that the World Wide Web collectively expresses its affection for animals. Be it cats, dogs, or any other creature, they all end up becoming internet sensations. This level of fascination with pets on social networks has an obvious result – skyrocketing views and interaction. So, it’s clear, everyone just can’t get enough of adorable animals online.
While you might believe that sharing a sad story about your pet could make you an internet star, it’s not a good idea to use someone else’s pet picture and pretend it’s your own. If you’re considering this path for online fame, it’s better to rethink the strategy. This approach is not only wrong but also disrespectful to the original owner of the pet.
Empaths Be Like
You know how sometimes, a friend tells you about a hard time they are having, or they grumble about a tricky situation currently in their lives. And your instinctive response is usually something like, “I feel your pain!” Well, it turns out that for some folks, they really mean it when they say that; it’s not just a figure of speech to them.
Arctic Wolf might be interpreting the word “literally” differently from most people. There’s being understanding, and then there’s whatever situation this is.
Not So Secret Admirer
There are so many jobs that don’t receive the appreciation they truly deserve and teachers fall near the top of this list. How do we know this? One of the reasons is that some teachers are finding themselves writing imaginary notes of admiration to themselves, as if they’re from secret admirers.
Even though her impeccably tidy penmanship was a major clue, the distinct practice of changing ink colors made it glaringly obvious to her buddies that there was no secret admirer in the picture at all.
Immunity Shield
It’s possible that getting bitten by a mad dog might not happen often if you look at the big picture, but there’s still a tiny chance. It’s a famous fact that there’s no such thing as natural immunity to rabies–everyone is susceptible. But there’s an exception to this rule! Surprisingly, there’s an individual who actually is immune to this dreadful illness!
Surely, putting on an act like you’re unharmed by one of mankind’s most terrible diseases just for some TikTok fame is quite a peculiar choice, isn’t it? There’s probably something they’re not letting us in on. Could this be our new Spiderman in the making?
Two Dudes Not Hanging Out
Airports are indeed that singular place on the globe where the usual norms and rules of living like an average person get tossed right off the roof. They’ll have you slumbering almost upright against a chilly window, or even see you delighting in a glass of sparkling wine at absurdly unthinkable hours of the early morning.
Bumping into a star is a rare event and it becomes particularly thrilling if it happens in the hustle and bustle of an airport. Such a surprising encounter is perhaps the reason why people warn against meeting those we idealize. That response must surely sting.
Millionaire at 15
It’s common to see some folks who adore sharing genuine advice on social media with the intent of encouraging others to attain the same level of triumph they enjoy. Yet, there are also those who like to wrap their boastful displays in the guise of “inspirational content”, merely as a method of flaunting their achievements or possessions.
Luckily, this is just the reason why Twitter created their community notes feature. Should we let Dylan off the hook this time? I don’t think so, it’s pretty clear he just hired a Ferrari to snap some photos next to it.
Beast Mode
The Actors’ Strike which occurred during the majority of 2023 entirely altered the landscape of Hollywood and the entire theatrical profession. No one wanted to get caught breaking the rules – especially not walking across the picket lines in this season.
This account attempted to accuse Mr. Beast of breaking his contract, compelling him to respond and clarify the situation. Of course, there are lots of things you could blame this guy for, but violating his contract is certainly not one of those. It’s only fair to state that Mr. Beast had to stand his ground against false accusations.
Gotta Back Yourself
Veganism is an evolving societal trend that is increasingly gaining traction in present times. Eating foods derived from plants appears to be the current popular route, but that doesn’t dispel the not so good image some vegans have created for the whole group.
Sure, here’s the paraphrased paragraph:
Being your own biggest fan and backing yourself is one thing, but it doesn’t mean you should reply to your own posts pretending to be someone who’s moved by your words. At the very least, make sure you’re not showing your hand too soon!
News to Us
Have you ever found yourself repeating a word over and over, until it starts to sound strange in your ears and you begin to wonder why that word even exists? Often, we find ourselves uttering phrases or words, without truly understanding or questioning their origin or why they exist the way they do in the first place.
This individual got it so off the mark that even the official Twitter account of the dictionary had to step in and clear up the confusion. News is simply referred to as ‘news’ because it’s freshly delivered information, folks! There’s absolutely no need to make things more complex than they need to be.
Here’s Some Advice
Social media is like a magic crystal ball full of first-hand knowledge. Just by pressing a few buttons, you can find thousands, even millions, of folks ready and willing to provide help and guidance, as long as you ask for it. This global reach makes your search for answers easier, providing a wealth of wisdom at the tip of your fingers.
Often, people don’t stop to question the truthfulness when someone asks for advice. After all, it’s quite unusual to weave lies around such serious matters. This is what makes it even more rewarding when you can expose someone who continually deceives, like this one we are discussing.
Feeling Krabby
In all of the 277 episodes of Spongebob Squarepants that we all probably watched again and again as kids (and who knows, maybe even watch now—we’re not saying anything), you’d feel as though we knew everything there was to know about the quirky underwater world of Bikini Bottom. But then, along comes a single tweet that shakes up everything you thought you knew.
When even the genuine, official Spongebob account seems unsure about what they’re mentioning, it makes us question who we can really rely on. But, there’s no need to worry. Spongebob Facts is here doing what they are best known for – providing us with the true details. It’s like we have our very own fact-checking tool right here.
Not So Chipper
We’ve all had a less than stellar service experience that has the potential to completely ruin our day. After all, there are few things worse than chips that have turned soggy, don’t you agree?
Giving bad reviews to eateries can really harm their operation, which is why they don’t take such critiques lightly, especially when there was already a solid explanation for the chips being a little too soft. Perhaps, the service was just mediocre, but the response was simply top-notch.
