At some points in life, you might think that nothing can surprise you. Everything’s rote. Boring. Even… meh. But that can end in a heartbeat when you accidentally come across a piece of text that starts out fine, but takes an unexpected watermelon, and makes you do a double-banana. Errr we mean ‘twist’ and ‘double-take.’
The ‘Unexpected Text’ subreddit, aka r/Unextexted (props for merging the two words), is a community that documents the very best examples of texts that end up meandering off somewhere you least expected. We thought it would make your day because they’re a lot of fun to read. Bored Panda also reached out to the moderators at r/Unextexted and spoke to the founder about the subreddit’s history and its appeal. Check out our interview below.
We’ll be honest with you, some of these posts completely blindsided us and we’re glad we weren’t drinking anything while reading them. Otherwise, our screens would have been drenched. We can’t wait to find out which of these unexpected texts you liked the most, so give them a big ol’ upvote and let us know in the comments, dear Pandas! Now, let’s get into the fun stuff.
