It can be pretty tempting to jump to lying after, for example, texting your crush goes horribly wrong. “Omg, my friend stole my phone and sent you that message as a joke, that totally wasn’t me. I would never say that, lol.”

But there’s only so much bending a narrative can take. Overdo it, and you’re exposed. Plus, people aren’t as gullible as we might think.

And I have the perfect subreddit to back up these claims. It’s called r/OopsDidntMeanTo and the pictures its members share expose all kinds of “accidents.”

From bringing a Labrador to a meeting with a dog-phobic person to buying a Range Rover, here are some of the most ridiculous ones. If these situations won’t prove to you that it’s better to just accept your embarrassment than run away from it, nothing will.
