12 People Who Had No Idea Who They Were Talking To

Sometimes, people get into bizarre, unprompted arguments online. Actually, it's a lot more common than just sometimes. But it's pretty rare to find an argument so embarrassing as the ones you're about to see. The following people have completely missed something obvious and called out someone online who was either a celebrity or an expert in their field. Sometimes, the results are pretty hilarious, and other times, they're just pretty cringeworthy. You should always double-check the name of the person you're talking to, apparently, because a lot of people don't do this, and things get weird as a result.

If you're about to start an argument with some random online stranger, it's probably best to know who you're actually taking to, because you might just end up on the subreddit /r/dontyouknowwhoiam, where the people who never recognize Tony Hawk wind up. Here are 12 of our favorite exchanges that resulted from these fundamental misunderstandings.
