15 Stories From Reddit's 'That Happened' That Clearly Did Not Happen

We've all lied at some point in our lives. It's just a normal part of the human experience. But sometimes, people lie a lot more than others. In most cases, it's hard to tell whether or not someone's lying, so a good rule of thumb is to instantly doubt any story you come across online. But even if you're one of the more trusting people among us, we can pretty much guarantee you're not going to fall for the stories and claims being made by the people in this collection, because they're so far out there that we can't imagine what they were thinking when they posted these.

Below, we've gathered some of the most ridiculous stories people have come up with and posted online, sometimes with "proof" such as a handwritten note that clearly was not written by a seven-year-old, or a photo of someone "accidentally" dressing exactly like a fictional character to make a point. Some people will try some truly ridiculous things to get attention online, so here are some examples that have certainly earned them some attention, even if it's not in the way they'd hoped.

When the ice cream machine is always broken, you have to start making up tales of heroism to restore it, I guess.

I Guess Teachers Get Bored And Make Stuff Up Too

Today I let a student go to the restroom. Apparently he was unaware that bathrooms amplify sound so when he did the four note whistle from the hunger games, it rang down the hall. The funny part, however, is that my class became utterly silent and did the three finger salute. All of them. In perfect unison. It was kinda cool.
