A series of three text messages reads "how do you clean poo stains from a rug, rug stains, poo stains google"

The conversation goes like this: "Have you heard?" "That the bird is the word?" "No, Kyle died last night"

Someone asks where their match is from, they respond Niagara, the first person misreads it as Nigeria and goes on a rant about how they don't look Nigerian and shouldn't lie

A rude message prompts someone to set an auto response that says "hey, thanks for the message," and the rude texter keeps responding to it with increasing frustration

Someone says "I want you," the other person says "do not write me thing like that," and the first person claims they have never written anything to them

The first person continues by saying it couldn't have been them because they were asleep, before saying "I'll leave you alone but I don't think I was the culprit"

The screenshot shows a normal previous conversation before a message that says "shaved my balls and they feel so nice and smooth" and then an apology

A dating app conversation starts with "you've got cool outfits, do you throat a lot" and a second text changing throat to thrift with a sad emoji

The message starts with "I believe women should be represented much better in society" before saying "Oh shit, my bad I thought I was DM'ing the homeboy"

Someone sent a message saying thanks for a letter of recommendation, then a second saying that was a mistake and explaining how similar the intended recipient's name is

Someone sends a photo, then claims they sent it to the wrong person and asks them not to open it; when they say "OK, I won't open it" they say "You can open it if you want"

Someone invites a coworker out, they say they can't go but have fun, and the first person says "thanks gorgeous, oops sent that to the wrong person" in a single text

The first person says "you're cute, wanna make out?" the second person says no, the first person says it was a joke, then two days later says "like I'm seriously joking"

Someone accidentally sent their boss a text that "oh shit babe, I think I left the condom on the bathroom counter" followed by "wow, wrong person I'm so sorry"

Someone starts a text convo with "good morning babe," the other person plays along but says they didn't get their selfie, so the first person sends it and asks for a selfie in return

The second person responds with a joke selfie making it clear they're someone else, the first person says "you're funny" and the second person says "I've enjoyed this moment with you"

The text says "I really like [name redacted] but I know he doesn't feel the same, help!" but was sent to the crush; the sender claims it was meant for their friend

When asked what they're doing, the person says they're hanging with their sick brother; the other person takes this to mean "sick" as in "cool," but they mean seriously ill

In a conversation about not having a car, someone suddenly says "god I need sex, sorry I'm so frustrated"

The first person says "hi baby," the second says "don't call me that," and the first claims they were using speech to text and talking to their baby cousin

The first person claims to have become a millionaire and says "you are so fucking cute," the second person responds "thanks, my boyfriend thinks so too"

The first person says "I can buy you anything you want," the second says "a one-way ticket to go fuck yourself," and the first person claims this was a prank for YouTube
