Communication is a two-way street – and yet, it often leads to a dead end. When it comes to texting, the more we grow close to people, the easier it is to misinterpret their messages. 

Alice had her hopes up high after receiving this text. Little did she know, what she was about to experience would be oh so embarrassing! She may now be deleting him from all of her contact lists. 

Matt was just trying to be supportive when he sent a ‘fist bump’ emoji to his friend, but little did he know it would cause a misunderstanding. His friend thought he was okay with him dating Kelsey, Matt’s crush, but he wasn’t. 

As a student driver, hitting a bus is probably something you’d rather avoid. But what happened to Mikey that he proudly claims to have missed an entire bus? Did something trigger intense memories of being dumped by his girlfriend or becoming a laughing stock at school? 

Complimenting your partner can seem difficult, but there are lots of ways to express your admiration. Saying that your partner is a “trophy wife” suggests that you are taking advantage of her, which is definitely not the message you want to send. 

Gene’s phone went missing, leaving him phone-less. But his friend had a brilliant idea – send a text to Gene’s number in the hope that whoever had the phone would respond. And respond they did, but what followed would leave everyone in stitches! 

The regal Prince William of Edinburgh is colloquially known as a Billy goat! So when Andy texted his partner the news that a billy goat would be coming to stay with them, the mind of this avid fan of the royals went straight to the Royal Billy.

Some names appeal more to some than to others, and this person was a big fan of Alice’s name. But when they complimented her on it via this text message, they didn’t quite get the response they might’ve expected!

She had it all planned out – a future full of love, companionship, and a partner who shared her dreams. But she was blindsided by the reality of it all. Instead of a lifetime of love, she found herself in a relationship with an ATM machine – a partner who only wanted her for her money. 

Helena’s relationship is worth more to her than even a truckload of money! All she wants is love and affection from her partner, but instead, he’s only thinking about the sound of the ATM machine as it dispenses cash. 

Alexander’s jaw dropped as his friend bragged about their brand new Apple computer. But what came next left Alexander in disbelief – his friend said it was strange and lousy! 

After a long and tiring work week, all we want is a break. We find ourselves stuck in an endless cycle of rushing to the office in the morning and coming back late at night, with little time to spend with family or on ourselves.

Are you dating someone special and think they might be head over heels for you? Sure, they may be nice and treat you well, but that doesn’t mean they have feelings of love so strong that it literally takes their breath away. 

Do you ever feel like you are taking your car to a mechanic and they are doing something just to make sure you pay for their services? That’s what it feels like when you talk to Steve! 

Are you feeling duped by your own child? You gave birth to them, so you should be smarter than them, right? Unfortunately, kids nowadays can be incredibly cunning and persuasive. 

When you mean to type “purse” but accidentally text “person” typos are no joke, especially when they can lead to some of the most confusing and awkward situations. Just imagine the embarrassment the sender must have felt when they realized that they had accidentally made this blunder in their message! 

Let’s face it, Gen X has a tough time keeping up with the current “meme culture” and internet slangs that are so popular nowadays. But not to worry, with a little help from their children, they can still stay in the loop and not feel left out. 

Have you ever texted the wrong number? We’ve all been there – maybe you meant to text your crush, or maybe it was an honest mistake. But one thing’s for sure, you can never predict what’s going to happen! Take this hilarious story, for example. 

This girl’s savage response to her ex’s text is definitely one for the books! Thanks to modern technology, we are now just a few clicks away from our exes. But this girl took it to a whole new level and gave her ex a classic, yet brutal, response, leaving the internet in awe. 

Nothing is quite like the confusion of mistaking a thermometer for a pregnancy test! This is exactly what happened to our sleepy friend – he just couldn’t tell the difference! 

Have you ever been in a relationship and when it ended you were on the receiving end of your ex’s unappetizing texts? We all know how brutal that can be. Well, this one takes the cake! 

It’s no secret that moms have the unique ability to make us laugh and blush at the same time! This picture perfectly captures the hilarity and awkwardness of having a mom who is an extreme overthinker. 

This dad’s response to his daughter’s thousands of texts about him being in a meeting is enough to make anyone laugh out loud! His daughter shared the conversation, and it quickly took the internet by storm. 

We have certainly come a long way in the way we communicate, but sometimes our words can be misinterpreted, leading to disastrous outcomes. This particular situation could have been easily avoided if the conversation had taken place in person. 

Despite belonging to the Gen Z generation, not everyone is an expert in the latest text language. A great example of this was seen in this exchange between a water delivery guy and a customer who didn’t quite get the abbreviation. 

A battle between good and evil, between father and son, between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader – the iconic Star Wars rivalry is etched in the memories of many. When we think of the famous scene between the two, it’s hard not to chuckle at the thought of the wave. 

Gone are the days when phone conversations meant something in the dating world. Now, it’s all about the text messages. With just a few characters, the entire tone of a conversation can be changed. We’ve all been there – reading into the “okay” and other monosyllabic responses, trying to decipher what the other person is really thinking. 

This mom’s reaction to her child’s text is nothing short of hilarious! We’ve all seen the funny text fails that autocorrect can cause, but this one’s a simple misinterpretation of texting acronyms. Our parents have certainly raised an eyebrow or two when it comes to the modern texting language, but this mother was the cause of a raised eyebrow!

Grandmas are known for being soft and kind, but this grandma had us in stitches! When she asked her grandkid for long life milk, and they responded cheekily, she had the perfect riposte! Who knew grannies could be so funny? 

We all know them—the grammar police. Those people who are always ready to correct your every mistake and make you feel embarrassed. It may be annoying, but if it wasn’t for them or your grammar police mom, you’d probably still be making the same mistakes and not even care to correct them. 

Are you a die-hard Hip Hop fan? Put your knowledge to the test and see if you can identify Marco’s mistake in this conversation. When asked his street name, instead of giving his address, Marco assumed he was being asked his nickname in the streets!
