Torturous Music Is In The Works
It doesn't matter how sleek we may think we are, no one is safe from running into a potentially embarrassing situation. But there are different levels of awkward. On one hand, there's "I run into my boss at the supermarket" awkward. And then there's "I matched with my best friend's current boyfriend on Tinder" kind of awkward. Yikes!
Peter Turik, the front man for a Toronto-based metal band called Witchrot, discovered that the woman he had been in a relationship for seven years had been sleeping with the band's guitarist. Under the circumstances, Turik realized that the show could not go on, at least not for a while anyway. So, he explained why the band was going on hiatus and he didn't hold back. But there's always a silver lining like the fact that his girlfriend's affair and his guitarist's betrayal inspired him to write some serious torturous music. Yikes. Next time, hire a social media manager, man!

Are You Lying To Me?
This woman's self-esteem came crashing to the ground after she posted a poll on social media asking whether people thought she was pretty or if they were just lying to her about her looks. Well, only 20% thought she was genuinely pretty and the other 80% claimed they were lying to her about her good looks. But she can take comfort in knowing that only 150 people voted out of 7.9 billion humans on the planet. That being said, don't ask questions you don't want to know the answers to.
Son? Were You Shot?
If there's one thing this son will never be able to accuse his mother of is not being worried about him because she was. When she read that someone in his neighborhood had been shot dead, she immediately panicked. Oddly enough, instead of calling him, she grabbed a pack of cigarettes and started smoking like crazy while she texted and waited to see if he was okay which is all levels of cringe. In her emotional outburst, his own mom forgot how old her son was.
Showing His Family His Pokémon Collection
This poor guy! He was so impressed with his Pokémon collection on his Nintendo Switch that he decided to share his enthusiasm with his family over Thanksgiving. But judging from the look on everyone else's faces, it's a safe bet that they weren't particularly proud of him. Can you imagine the pearl-clutching grandparents' reaction if he tells them he threw away all his money on Dogecoin?
You Texted My Dead Husband

Rest In Peace, Uno

You've seen it before! That old toy you used to play with in the '80s becomes hot and trendy again and they're suddenly worth thousands. Well, back when fidget spinners were all the rage, this person decided to buy about 6,000 of them hoping they would become a rare commodity worth millions in the future. Unfortunately, his plan failed and now he's desperately looking for a way to dig himself out of the financial hole he's in. A good rule of thumb is to never invest anything you're not willing to lose.
Gary Has 0 Friends
Poor Gary! Social media can be such a cruel world. As if getting no birthday wishes wasn't already bad enough, social media had to rub some salt on his wound and let him know that 0 friends cared about his birthday. But that's okay, because sometimes it's better to celebrate alone with your pets and family than to be surrounded by fake online friends.
Someone Please Fake A Birthday Party
This woman wanted to get out of a date so badly that she came up with an elaborate plan and shared it on her private Snapchat.

ASMR is a relaxing sensation that starts on the scalp and moves down the body. Well, this guy posted a video claiming he was doing ASMR while working and almost got caught.

No One Cared That He Was Leaving
This guy overestimated his importance in the lives of his co-workers, but he quickly learned that he wasn't as valuable to the team as he thought when he pulled an April Fool's joke that totally backfired. His coworkers fell for the joke, which let's face it, it wasn't much of a joke, and barely reacted to him leaving the company. Maybe this is a sign from the universe that you need to work somewhere where you're appreciated, man!
It Was The Worst Meal Ever
This may be the best boyfriend ever because he actually did his best to cook a decent dinner for his girlfriend. He even thought he had done a good job until a text popped up on her phone from her mom that revealed how she really felt about it. Everything would have been fine if he hadn't been watching videos on her phone when the all-too-revealing text appeared. Hopefully, his next girlfriend will appreciate his cooking.

But this person shouldn't have bothered to set this game up because judging from the post, no one is coming.
Would You Like To Sell Your Baby?
This may be one of the creepiest texts anyone could ever send a mother. It turns out that the anonymous texter had suffered a miscarriage. Whether that's true or not is unknown, but just thinking about getting this text sends shivers down our spine. The texter even went on to reveal that they had been stalking them on Facebook for a bit and even gave the baby a nickname. For all that is good and holy, we're going to assume this text is a bad joke.
She Wanted His Skinny Arms
An anonymous woman on social media posted that all she really wanted in this life "is skinny arms." So, naturally, some random guy assumed she was talking about a guy with skinny arms and he fit the description. So, he took his shirt off, took a selfie and replied to her original comment. But he was undoubtedly disappointed when she told him that she wasn't necessarily looking for skinny arms on a man but rather on herself.
The Polar Opposite Of A Tinder Like
Generally, people swipe right when they like someone, but a super like is a feature that a Tinder user can only use once every few hours and it allows the other person to see who super liked them before matching. Unfortunately, Graham was brutally honest and explained to this woman that if there was a âpolar opposite of a super likeâ then he would have pressed that after looking at her profile. Ouch! Her poor, poor ego!
The Wedding That Never Happened
This guy had the next 20 years all planned out, and within that time, he had figured out that he was going to be married by 2018.

That’s Just My Dad
This woman went to see a hockey game with a handsome man sitting next to her. But there was something eerie about the photo. At least, that's what the NHL team, the Washington Capitals thought when she uploaded a photo of herself with the guy using the hashtag #CapsSocialNight. So, the Washington Capitals commented âGreat faceswapâ on the woman's post. But it turns out that there was a perfectly logical explanation as to why these two looked alike.
Grubhub Driver Got Called Bruh
Valerie, the Grubhub driver doesn't like being called a âbruhâ because she is a woman. Of course, there was no way that the guy who placed the order she delivered could have known that until it was too late. By the time he realized his mistake, there was nothing he could do to make things right with Valerie. But he'll definitely think twice before calling anyone else âbruhâ ever again... I guess.
Sorry, Right Number!
Cole was heartbroken when he learned that Camryn, the woman he had met at a bar the night before, gave him the wrong number. At least, that's what the person that texted him told him in 2019.

Unfortunately, she was definitely not the right person for Cole.
So Sorry For Offending You
Grant B had set up a reservation for two at a restaurant. Unfortunately, bad weather forced the restaurant to cancel the reservation. And when they notified him, he lashed out with a horrible insult.

But it's a safe bet that movie night was cancelled indefinitely.
The Speed Dating Fail
Speed dating is a type of matchmaking process which encourages eligible bachelors and bachelorettes to meet a large number of potential partners in a short period of time. This was certainly what the event in this photo was supposed to be about, but unfortunately, no one showed up except for the poor sap that took the photo. Maybe they got the date and time mixed up.
Who Are You?
Ninja, aka Richard Tyler Blevins, is an American Twitch streamer, YouTuber and professional gamer with millions of followers.

Unfortunately, her response stung like acid on skin.
Just Retire Already

So, he set up a poll on Twitter asking if he should return to WWE, go to upstart promotions AEW or Impact or retire. Well, most people voted retire.

The Insecure Man
This woman loves to play XBox, but not by herself. Luckily, she can play in co-op mode with other players online. There's only one major snag. Her boyfriend is extremely insecure and doesn't allow her to play with other guys. And this became a problem when she had to tell an online male friend that she couldn't play with him anymore because of her jealous boyfriend. Ironically, her XBox buddy lives across the country, so her man doesn't really have anything to worry about.
The Not Invited To My Party List
When this guy was asked by a girl in primary school how to spell his name, he immediately got excited. Those types of questions often indicated that someone might have a crush on him. He figured it was her. Then it turns out that she was making a list for her party, except it wasn't the kind of list he wanted to be on. In fact, it was the kind of list that would make any guy at any age feel utterly gutted.
No Second Date
Sometimes, people go on a first date and feel that they've hit it off. Unfortunately, that's not always the case. It certainly wasn't for this couple. Well, the guy seemed to have fun and was nice enough to reach out to his date. Sadly, all she did was nag about the fact that he was a Star Wars fan who couldn't shut up about the franchise. But at least the guy apologized for talking too much. And when he asked about the possibility of a second date, her response was more venomous than a cobra bite.
He Made The Girl Cry
Being a teenager is tough, just ask this guy who posted on social media how a girl in class reacted when the teacher partnered her up with him on a project.

But after the way that girl reacted, it's a safe bet that these two will be lucky to complete their school project without any drama.
The Cancer Free Controversy
One person tweeted that they were cancer free, as in the disease they had fought so hard to get rid off was finally beaten.

Luckily, they found enlightenment and apologized, but the thing about the internet is that it never lets people forget their slow moments.
The Epic Negotiation Fail
Everyone knows that when people say to put an offer on the table, the word table is just a figure of speech. It's too bad that this person didn't realize that when they tried haggling prices for the washer and dryer. What transpired as a result was one of the most embarrassing, forehead slap moments in negotiation history. But hopefully, they were still able to buy what they wanted at an affordable price.
She Doesn't Know Her Flags
The cool thing about social media is that people can add little icons and emojis to their posts. For example, when Kelly wanted to show her support for Donald Trump, she posted what she thought were three American flags in front of the name "TRUMP" and three American flags after it. Unfortunately, the icons were so tiny, that she didn't realize that she had used the flag from another country by mistake. And then someone pointed out her mistake for the whole world to see.
Christian Was His Name
There's a reason why people should avoid naming their kids after a famous religion. You just don't know when it's going to cause confusion like the time a lab partner introduced himself by saying "I'm Christian."

But eventually, she realized much to her embarrassment that Christian was his name.

She Hit On Her Dad By Mistake
A Twitter user by the name of Alexa thought she was sending a NSFW message to her boyfriend. But as it turns out, she had sent it to the wrong man in her lifeâher father.

The Mystery Of The Avocados
For weeks, her friend had been very upset because he felt like he was under attack by someone in the neighborhood. There was no other way to describe what he had discovered in his yard. It seems that the attack had come in the form of avocados which a neighbor had been throwing into their property. But as it turns out, there was no disgruntled neighbor attacking him. In fact, the attack was coming from his own home.
He Passed Gas At The Gym
It's not uncommon for people to pass gas when they're doing some form of exercise, like leg presses, at the gym. That doesn't make it any less embarrassing though, especially if a beautiful woman happens to be passing by at that exact moment. That's something that most guys hope will never happen to them. Unfortunately, it did happen to this guy, and it's a safe bet that he did not have the courage to ask that woman out afterwards.
She Forgot Her Dog

And even after the texter apologized, this person kept pushing for more updates.
Strangers Celebrated Their Breakup
This guy learned the hard way that breaking up with someone should be done somewhere private like their place or their girlfriend's place. But that didn't happen. No. He decided to invite her to a fancy restaurant where he could wine and dine her before breaking her heart. But because the restaurant patrons saw her crying, they started celebrating because they thought they were happy tears.
Nice Eyes
This person was on a dating site where she matched with a guy named Michael. Luckily, Michael seemed like a nice guy because he started out by complimenting her on her nice eyes. Then she fudged it all up and made it weird when she gave him a sarcastic response, apologized for it and then started dissing her own eyesight. Looks like Michael should have swiped left on this one. Oh well! Maybe next time she'll get it right.
The Library Convo Fail
Tripping up on words is a lot more common than people think, and it can lead to some embarrassing moments. Take this person for instance. They took their time to rehearse what they were going to tell the librarian because they had a fine that they needed to pay. And by the time they got to the counter, they messed it all up and said something so embarrassing that they overpaid and decided never to return to that library again.
His Name Was Not Steve
