20 People Who Took Lying Too Far

One of the fun things about the internet is that you can be whoever you want to be on there. You can make as many profiles on as many different social media platforms as you want and create a whole new life for yourself. Is it ethical? Probably not. But for some people, it's all they have. Making others think that their lives are way more interesting and way more crazy than what they probably really are. If you are going to lie about crazy, miraculous stories on the internet, at least make them believable. The issue is when people go above and beyond with their stories and it is just plain obvious that that definitely did not happen.

Reddit's /r/thatHappened, which is a sarcastic name, is the place for the best fake stories the people of the internet have to offer to the world. A lot of them are super cringeworthy because of how fake they are, which is half the fun. Here are 20 stories that are totally real and absolutely believable for you to enjoy.

How Would You Do Tests?

Follow Apr 29 did i even tell you guys how i pretended to know how to play an instrument for three years and only two people ever figured it out. Follow Apr 29 i don't mean i was like. telling people i could play guitar, i mean i was sitting in band class holding a french horn to my lips and looking at the music and not understanding any of it or knowing how to play a single note. for 3 years. Follow Apr 29 the two people who knew were my best friend who knew i was too stupid to play such a complicated instrument and the only other hornist in my section who had to desperately cover for me because he knew i had blackmail material on him. i only came clean this year in my senior speech and to this day people still call me mellophony and the no hit wonder. 24,485 notes

Sorry, What?

21m One time I came into a Starbucks and these two white women were standing in line waiting for their drinks. I was behind them and they were talking cep about the barista. They said something like "oh my god look that hair. It's atrocious." They even took pictures. They continued this for a good 5-10 minutes before finally I grabbed one of their shoulders and spun them around. "You guys are the worst type of his there are." The other one for extremely offended and tried to punch me in the face. It was pretty funny cuz her form sucked Imao. I grabbed he fist and head butted her (I'm a girl). The other girl got so scared and back away. The entire place cheered and kicked them out. I also got a free latte out of it haha. After that I hacked them from my laptop and erased all the photos they took so they couldn't make fun of the barista anymore. It was one of the wildest events I've ever been in. If I ever told anyone it they'd surely think I'm lying, but I'm not. Reply -1 ↓ in Be honest, how old are you? Did you really think someone would believe this fake a story? 2↓

Watch Out Folks

7h Yep, this happened to me. I was in another country and the weirdo ran at me with a knife, stabbed me in the chest. Right near my heart. Must have been my lucky day because the knife went straight into my rib covering my heart. It looked comical at first because it was wobbling from left to right. By this time I had pushed the guy onto the ground. Then I removed the knife and started dealing with the guy.... 4-20

They Were All Waiting

days ago Still my favorite scene in Hellboy 2. We saw it in a theater, and when he said "You woke the baby", this little girl in the theater behind us said "Ohhhhh you woke the baaaaaby!" in the ultimate little kid "You're in trouble!" voice and the whole theater died. People were literally waiting for them outside the door at the end just to high five the kid. 112

Classic Everyone Clapped

We were in a position where we had to fly with our 4 month baby from Idaho to Hawaii. My husband was so nervous walking on the plane with a baby he almost passed out. Thank goodness, he was the most perfect baby *ever,* so when we were all getting off the plane everyone clapped and told us we had the best baby they've ever been around. But I would never skimming willingly do that again, the stress of knowing everyone on the plane *hates* you, was just too much.

Then What Happened

Today in sixth period there was a thunderstorm and I arrived late due to appreciating the rain. When I arrived to the class I was soaking wet and the teacher gave me a nasty look and said that she was calling my parents and sending me to the office. So I pointed my finger at her, and yelled "NO!" Thunder crackled at that exact moment as the light went out, and just to freak out everyone, I whispered "666." and this girl screamed. As soon as the power went back, the whole classroom was nowhere to be seen.

No She Didn't

When my daughter was 4 I was talking to my mother telling her how I wished my grandpa would have been able to hold her at least one time. My daughter walked up and put her hand on my shoulder and said "momma, he held me before you did". Liko Ponly 10.00 461
