We could do a whole series of articles on how sad and wrong it is that things like GoFundMe even need to exist in this day and age. Many of them are created to help families cope with ridiculously high expenses resulting from unexpected medical expenses and/or untimely death, which one could argue shouldn’t exist in the first place.

But, I digress.

Today we’re talking about something way funnier – people who set up GoFundMe accounts for absolutely silly and ridiculous reasons, and we think you’re going to find these 16 hard to believe.

16. Her name had to be Karen.

But also, you fired someone how do you think they have money.

15. Why was a storage building necessary?

I have questions.

14. I can’t stand this girl and I don’t eve know her.

She should really listen to her friends.

My friend asks us to donate money towards her temporary car she’ll use for year until her dad buys her a Cadillac. She doesn’t even have a permit. Shortly after this she left our group chat and made a post on how annoying people are. Blue is her and green is the other person in our group chat.

13. Impossible to budget?

I mean, the rest of us are out here doing it, though.

Begging for a car, apparently £19k is nothing too crazy.

I wonder if she actually got enough for a purse.

11. I have never heard of this in my life.

What exactly is happening here?

Some guy tried to take control of our high school reunion and started a gofundme without any of our input on the event location or price. Immediately criticized for it and is now PMing people to apologize to him

10. That was a heck of a fit.

Impressive, really.

Cool and fun, sure, but not necessary.

5. And I thought I was lazy.

Do something for yourself, lady!

Not only is she too lazy to pay for it, but she’s also to lazy to set up her OWN gofundme. I can’t 💀

3. That’s not how roadside businesses work.

No one showed up to my kids bake sale… so give me $3,000 on GoFundMe

2. OMG I totally forgot about him.

I guess that’s why he needs the money.

1. Maybe try the job thing first?

Or just living within your means. Both are excellent life skills.

Y’all, human beings are so great. Even when they’re being silly.

Maybe especially then.

Have you ever see a GoFundMe that had you re-reading it to make sure it was real? Tell us about it in the comments!
