Life sure is strange, isn’t it? You really never know what you’re gonna get. That’s why these stories from an epic Twitter thread are pretty crazy and a lot of fun.
This is the tweet that got the ball rolling.
Tell me a story about yourself the sounds like a lie but is absolutely true.

Let’s take a look at some of the good responses.

2. Wow. Didn’t see that ending coming.
30 yrs ago a con man came to my hometown & ruined local families. He escaped all prosecution
He opened 3 businesses, stuffed his pockets w/millions siphoned off in salary & bonuses, defaulted on his debts, declared bankruptcy, & left town
Now he’s President of the United States https://t.co/mStWPN9kX3

5. It wasn’t dead.
when i was a kid my cat caught a hummingbird. i thought it was dead & i wanted to show my mom it’s feathers because i’d never seen one up close, but as soon as i got inside the little f*cker looked right at me before it flew around the house for 25 minutes https://t.co/cKuWBifaqu

6. What a terrible story.
in my hometown we had a weird “zoo” in someone’s lot of land and someone shot the giraffe with a bow and arrow and f*cking murdered it which is why they stopped letting the lion out https://t.co/TZj1qeb4Bv

10. The party is off.
when i was away at college our house completely burned down the day before my little sister’s bday & she genuinely thought my mom was joking & throwing her a surprise party until she showed up to just a massive fire, no party, & no f*ckin house https://t.co/x9PM7sOTHu

11. A life-altering choice.
I went Orlando to visit with two close childhood friends (brother snd sister), and after dinner we they wanted to go out dancing. The restaurant suggested two clubs. We drove by the first one, Pulse, and decided to continue on to the second one. That was June 12, 2016. https://t.co/fePgJJaGHZ

12. You can’t leave.
I accidentally walked into an AA meeting, thinking it was my grandmas retirement party (I am bad at directions), and the group leader wouldn’t let me leave because he thought I was just struggling to admit I had an addiction. https://t.co/4FnCceEyN3

14. Ghost friends.
I worked in pediatrics, I had a 5 y/o patient who had “ghost friends.” He told me about a 3 y/o girl that he colored pics with. He colored a pic of a sunflower & said she picked it out. I had a 3 y/o patient who died of cancer a day before in that room & she loved sunflowers. https://t.co/UNnnQrIQxM

15. A real-life hero.
In my 53 years on earth, I have saved three people’s lives. One toddler choking on the F train. One baby in Haiti post earthquake. One woman who started to drown in a pool. https://t.co/OCm7KNGKG0
