15 People Blissfully Unaware Of Who They Were Speaking To

There's nothing better than witnessing cringeworthy conversations, especially when they happen online, and you can distance yourself from them enough to enjoy the secondhand awkwardness. Below is a list of notable people having to point out who they are, because people either failed to research who they are conversing with, or they're blissfully unaware. The people who provoked them must be super embarrassed, since there's nothing quite like being epically owned by someone who actually knows what they're talking about, which is exceptionally rare to find online anyways.

But when things like this do happen, the results are pretty hilarious, as celebrities and experts come crawling out of hiding to absolutely devastate someone with a single confirmation of their identity and knowledge, something the other person was blissfully unaware of for too long. Now, they suffer the consequences for everyone to see. Here are 15 of our favorites collected from the painfully fun subreddit /r/DontYouKnowWhoIAm.

8 Years Feels Like Enough

Ih Active military is safer. If you call a marine a "soldier" you'll get an earful. Soldier is specific to the army Vote 1h Lol it's not that serious. Vote 8m Ask a marine that lol Vote 2m I mean, I figured the 8 years I spent in the USMC as a rifleman would qualify me to have an opinion...

If Only This Cardiologist Studied The Heart

@daniellebelardomd I suggest you study on the heart. Wearing a mask can cause one to go into SVT due to lack of oxygen. Just bc you dont know about it doesn't mean its not legit. Not all doctors or health professionals know everything. I've had doctors who almost killed me yet I knew what the problem was and I don't have a medical degree. 36m Reply daniellebelardomd n I'm a cardiologist. You are stating inaccurate and false medical information 35m 1 like Reply
