I love hearing a crazy story that is also 100%, absolutely TRUE.
That’s why I enjoy listening to history podcasts, watching documentaries, and reading non-fiction books.
Life is so weird and unpredictable that even the best Hollywood screenwriter would be hard-pressed to come up stories that are more compelling than the stuff that happens in real life.
So, with that, we’re going to turn it over to folks on Twitter who told stories that sound crazy and made-up but are totally true.
Enjoy!
1. Fake ID mix-up.
That’s so random.
In college a friend found an ID of a dude over 21 who looked just like me. I used it like a charm for months. Then I went to a club and a bouncer starting asking me what’s my address and birthday and shit. I finally said “dude it’s me” and he replied “no dude, it’s ME”. It was. https://t.co/gUW03MxUc3

2. Hole in your heart.
That is so wild!
i had a physical the day after i lost my virginity. when she asked if i was sexually active, my heartbeat started racing. when she listened to my heart, she found a murmur for the first time in 18 years (i’m convinced bc i was nervous)! turns out i had a hole in my heart https://t.co/1ZRPxMdJSf

3. Saving money!
Doing it the hard way.
i had my eight remaining baby teeth yanked as a sophomore in high school
at one point, the oral surgeon handed me (high on laughing gas) the pliers, telling me any i pulled out myself we wouldn’t be charged for
so I pulled out two of my own, saving my parents a nifty $130 https://t.co/tdoeEZmuT8

5. Oh, boy…
Creepy stuff!
I met this dude on tinder and asked what his last name was.. he told me, then replied “ you doing a little background check? You might find out I’m a murderer, just ignore that ? “ okay so a good sense of humor.. well I googled him and he was a murderer. https://t.co/II55zBGfNj

6. I can eat that, too!
Paper is delicious!
When I was in Pre-K I got caught eating paper (lay off). My teacher sent a note home with me for my parents. I ate the note. https://t.co/Az7XNpOuGH

9. That’s really classy.
And she sounds like a great friend!
A friend suggested we go out to help me get over my breakup. While I was talking/flirting with a guy, she came over, straddled him, lifted her dress, took his dick out and started fucking him all within seconds. So I just quietly left and walked home. https://t.co/5ohmOx0Ryg

10. Hahahaha. Wow!
Aiding and abetting.
When I was a teenager the police raided my house in the middle of the night at gunpoint looking for an armed robbery suspect. They didn’t find him and my mom screamed at the cops for scaring her kids. He was in my closet the whole time. I gave him clean clothes in the morning. https://t.co/fZwM8tmRn9

11. An offer he better not refuse.
This is totally epic.
I met Marlon Brando through an AOL chat room in the early 90s, we became friends, & a few years later, at 3am one nite, in his “Godfather” voice, he called the thief who stole my 1960 pink Rambler to tell him he’d better keep paying me the monthly court-ordered restitution money. https://t.co/O4CmR6wxRS

12. This is so crazy.
I’m glad you both went to prison. Sorry, had to say it.
I once burglarized a home & stole a safe. I cracked the safe & discovered photos of the owner molesting a child. He reported the burglary to police. I turned the photos in. The cops called him in to discuss the burglary. He confessed. We both went to prison. https://t.co/yxpFN30qgv
