50 Times People Failed To Remember What A Simple Thing Is Called But Came Up With A Hilarious Alternative That’s Even Better

“What’s the word for when you– Ugh, do you know when you’re… What do you call it when there is a… Oh, it’s on the tip of my tongue! This is driving me crazy! Do you know what I’m talking about?”

We all know that feeling. The frustration and sometimes embarrassment associated with not being able to remember the exact word that you want can be debilitating. “Give me a minute! I’ll remember it!”

But you might not, at least not within the next few minutes. So sometimes in these situations, we desperately reach for whatever our brain can come up with. And if there isn’t an appropriate synonym that comes to mind, we might need to get even more creative.

To celebrate (or mock, we’ll leave that up to you) all of those infuriating “tip of the tongue” moments we all can relate to where we end up creating new words or phrases altogether, the Wildbeef subreddit was born. (I believe the word they were looking for there was cow.)

We’ve gone through and gathered all of the best, most creative and hilarious names people have subbed in for actual words and listed them down below for you all. So enjoy these pics, and be sure to upvote the ones you intend to add to your personal vocabulary. 

Let us know in the comments what your favorite back-ups are for words you commonly forget, and then if you’re interested in checking out a Bored Panda, or should I say bored black and white furball, article featuring hilarious words kids have come up with, check out this conglomeration of text next.
