These People Were Very Much Not Prepared For The Texts They Received
Communication via text presents its own unique set of challenges. So much gets lost in the emptiness of it all. It's very hard to communicate tone via text. Three people could read the same text message and take three completely different meanings from it.
Although, some texts are very blunt and there's no getting around what the sender was trying to say. Keep reading to see some text messages that really threw us for a loop.
Same Difference
As far as this text messeger is concerned, misery and Missouri are one in the same.
It was an honest mistake at first, but then they doubled down on it.
Every Wednesday
Every Wednesday, this dad sends his son the exact same text.
It looks like all they talk about is taking the trash out, and even then, "talk" is being generous.
Half A Sandwich
When someone says that they ate half a sandwich, this isn't usually what you picture.
Seriously, who eats sandwiches like this? Only literal monsters. This just isn't right. Poor sandwich.
Here For You
This is what happens when you lose all of the contacts in your phone. You end up sending overly emotional texts to your Uber driver.
It's really not a good look.
Just Dad Things
If your dad doesn't talk to his favorite toilet at work, is he even a dad?
This just seems like a very dad thing to do. It's also very weird.
Something's Up
This girl started sending her boyfriend some random emojis and he got understandably concerned.
I have no idea what she was trying to say with these faces. They're kind of scary.
An Unwelcome Surprise
It looks like the receiver of this text didn't realize that she was in a love triangle.
If I were her, I would get out of this situation as fast as possible.
Maybe He's The Demon
The next time you walk by a random pentagram painted on the street, consider the fact that you might be what it summoned.
Do you think you would know if you were a demon?
Happy Father's Day
Sometimes wrong number texts end up in happy coincidences. This person seems to have found a friend for life.
I have no idea if either of them are actually fathers.
What's The Point Of Texting, Then?
If you can't send cat videos via text, then what's the point of texting?
I think that sad face emoticon is the only appropriate response to a text like this.
Oh, Grandpa
I can't tell if this grandfather is joking or if he really hasn't heard the phrase "love birds" before.
If I had to bet on it, I'd say he was joking.
Interview Tips
This isn't the best thing to say in an interview when the interviewer asks, "Tell me about yourself?"
So much gets miscommunicated over text message. People make all sorts of assumptions.
Just A Hypothetical
You have to wonder when someone sends a text like this out of the blue.
I feel like this person definitely murdered someone. The text is just way too suspicious.
I'm Very Confused
This dad sent his son an episode of the Joe Rogan podcast followed by a whole bunch of letter "P"s.
I don't think this makes much sense, but I guess dads can be weird sometimes.
I Want To Know What Happened The First Time
Jake, buddy—what are you doing? I can understand that this could happen one time, but a second?
What is with setting all these butthole fires? Is this a cry for help?
Danny Found A Way To Tell Her Boss After All
Problem solved Danny, no worries about how to break it to them because you've gone and done it.
Looks like she would've just kept ghosting her boss though, since she was definitely avoiding that Friday shift text.
I'm Sure There Was A Nicer Way To Say This
I don't know who Priscilla is or how she actually smells in person, but I have no doubt that she deserved better than to receive this malicious text from her haters.
Poor Priscilla.
How Are Grapes A Warning?
Did you ever think someone could send off a cryptic warning with green grapes? They're delicious, so what in the world is going on here?
It gets funnier when they realize they have the wrong number, but the other person seems locked in to learn more.
Some Solid Advice
Not everyone can make it when they shoot their shot. Brandon must've received the wrong number, but this person played it cool with him.
Giving someone you don't know sound advice is a noble thing to do. Do you think this guy got back on his feet?
A Nice Message In Return
When you receive good energy, it's always polite to return it. That's exactly what happened here, and it's so wholesome to see.
A motivational message from a stranger is all you might need to get going in the right direction.
Never Forget The Mac
Forgetting the mac and cheese goes against every rule. In fact, it should be a state law never to forget that creamy goodness.
Lee should get beat for not bringing it, but not in a painful way. Making fun of him should suffice.
Chances Are Ernie, The Head Hauncho, Wasn't Supposed To See This
Imagine having such poor enough vision that you text your boss talking smack about him instead of a group chat with three other people.
I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume that the group "figuring something out" is directly related to be being back on the job hunt.
I'm Pretty Sure "You Up?" Doesn't Go To Your Boss Or Sister
Sure you did, suuuuuurrrrrreeeee. "You up?" is an incredibly wild thing to text your boss but there's no way you texted your sister that.
If I text someone a "you up?" I know dang well who I'm sending it to.
Is There An Application Form Or...
If sending random text messages to strangers in order to entice them to join a cult is the latest recruitment tactic, it's definitely working.
Keep up the good work, cults!
I Think I Needed This Too
The universe works in mysterious ways and it has mystical tactics when it comes to directing our paths.
Sometimes we need a stranger to remind us that we need to be more mature.
I Hope They Really Do Meet Again
In the words of The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, "We met at the wrong time. That's what I keep telling myself anyway.
Maybe one day years from now, we'll meet in a coffee shop in a far away city somewhere and we could give it another shot."
I Will Never Reject A Photo Of A Chonk Boy
Getting messages from a stranger by accident can be an irritating experience (especially if it happens frequently),
but there will never be a time in my life where I won't accept an animal pic.
Don't You Recognize Me?
Some people like to vilify texting as an inferior form of communication-based face-to-face interaction between participants, but this innovator found a way to make a face appear in message conversations.
This is superior texting, for sure.
"...And Kids, That's The Story Of How I Met Your Mother"
Dating has changed significantly since the birth of the digital age and many people are using non-traditional ways to meet the love of their life.
A single mistaken text can be the start of a beautiful love story.
She Kept Going
A woman thought that she was sending a message to someone that she was talking to on Tinder.
She typed in the wrong number but did not let that stop her from keeping the conversation going.
Who Was It Meant For?
This person opened a message to find a very odd and slightly scary-looking face that had been sent to them by a wrong number.
The simple response of question marks feels pretty fitting!
Looking For Clarification
This group chat was started to help organize the family thanksgiving dinner.
The one person's picture that they sent brought up a question from others in the group. It is a little odd!
Unexpected Prayers
This person was sent a message from a wrong number from someone saying that they were praying for them.
They had to let them know it was the wrong number but hoped that the person who they meant to text was doing okay!
The Volunteer Wingman
This man got a wrong number text from someone trying to get a hold of a woman.
They decided to follow up and see if they ended up getting the right number and if they needed a wingman.
Homework Check
These two people were brought together by a wrong number text looking for someone to edit their homework.
They messaged the wrong person, but funny enough, they also needed homework help!
Sound Advice
When something is not working the first thing that technical support will always suggest is to unplug it and plug it back in.
That's what this person tried to recommend when they received a message from someone saying that something didn't work.
Dissappointed Cow
Don did not get the response to his picture of his perfectly cooked steak that he was hoping for.
His friend responded with a picture of a cow that was not very pleased with the look of a steak!
Not Doll Face
When you realize that you've sent a message to a wrong number, it can make you feel very embarrassed.
This person got a response in the form of a SpongeBob gif to let them know they were not a doll face.
How Do You Like The Horns?
This would be a very random text to get when you do not know who it was coming from.
What would you do if you were sent a picture of bulls walking down the street?
Not Your Father
This person thought they were sending a Thanksgiving text to their dad.
They found out two things. The first is that the number was not their dad's and the second is that the person is a big fan of Star Wars.
