Sometimes, when I’m gossiping about somebody to my friends, I accidentally text the person I’m talking sh*t about. It’s pretty awkward trying to explain why you just called someone “really sweet but kind of weird” to their face.
Then, there are times that wrong number texts are completely unsalvageable. They totally go off the rails, and there’s no stopping the catastrophic social train wreck.
These 13 people share their wrong number text stories that spiraled out of control.

Any cyphers here who can figure out what this means? This is like Zodiac Killer level cryptic.

I’m still not okay with that 0.01% of germs left unaccounted for.
