25 Times People Posted “Totally True” Stories That Are Obvious Fabrications

Published 22 hours ago

There’s a high probability of getting away with lies on the internet, and it’s likely tempted a few people to embellish the details of their lives to make it appear more exciting or appealing. But some folks tend to believe everything that’s posted online, hence the popularity of scams. With 8 billion people on Earth, someone is bound to believe a fabricated sob story.

Today, however, we won’t explore further into stories of liars who are trying to make a quick buck off a gullible person, but the liars who create obvious fake scenarios just to validate their thoughts or actions. These eye-roll-worthy moments seem to run rampant enough that there’s a whole subreddit dedicated to the stories of such incidents. We’ve combed through the r/thatHappened community to find their latest selection of posts and shared a few top picks in the gallery below.

Shanilou Perera

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.

Got wisdom to pour?
