Sometimes the creepy legend in your hometown ends up being true! 

Some people in this world just can't seem to take responsibility for their own terrible actions - we all know someone like this, and it seems like they're constantly trying to play it off with some lame sob story to make you feel sorry for them. People on Reddit are revealing the stories they aren't falling for anymore.

These people really outdid themselves with the cringe!

You didn't learn about these verses in Sunday school!

These Redditors had some pretty horrible experiences.

You might be pretty surprised by some of these!

Dudes, please take note.

What do you even say in response to a back-handed compliment...?

If you plan it well, an April Fools Day prank can be a work of art. That's exactly what these Redditors did, and their pranks are truly great. A good prank never gets old. Read on and take notes, trusty prankers. Want more ideas for pranks? We've got you covered. 

We've all been there. Lost in deep thought pondering over our life problems and just absently going about our day. All of a sudden you do something absurd and your brain snaps off autopilot in horror, leaving you standing there bewildered at whatever bizarre thing you've just done. 

Bonus points if you're in public and immediately start searching around frantically to make sure that nobody witnessed your mistake.

Ahh, the internet. A double edged sword that leaves the world just a click or two away. Although you can learn a lot, sometimes wires get crossed and soon you start assuming that the alternative facts you're seeing are actual reality. Well, that's exactly what happened to these people when they thought they'd learned a thing or two from porn.

You're mama taught you well, but probably not that well. The world is filled with fake facts, and their spread is pervasive. So we put some of the best untrue but repeated myths in one easy-to-read place. That isn't to say that the internet is 100% trustworthy, but it's probably a better source of information than a myth that's been circulating in Chinese whispers for hundreds of years. So get your truth nuggets here, courtesy of the fine folk over at Reddit. If you want even more myth-crushing facts, see this article about things we believe that just aren't true. Or, if that doesn't float your boat, start your own cult or whatever.

Maybe you've been there, maybe you haven't; but these tales of blue-balled heartbreak and woe practically scream sexual frustration from out the screen. Here's to hoping you never find yourself in one of these cockblocking pickles.
