The majority of conversations that people have are probably pretty mundane. We chat about the weather, what our plans for the weekend are, what albums we’ve been listening to recently, and what we plan on making for dinner. But every now and then, you’ll hear something so wild that it immediately stops you in your tracks. Those are the moments that this article is dedicated to.
We took a trip to the Brand New Sentence subreddit and gathered some of their most amusing posts below. From quotes that will make you burst into laughter to posts that might simply perplex you, we hope you enjoy scrolling through this strange list. And be sure to upvote the sentences that you can’t believe actually humans wrote!

In this day and age, it’s easy to feel like you’ve seen it all. Thanks to the 24-hour news cycle and having access to unlimited information online, almost nothing can shock us anymore. But if someone is creative enough, they might still be able to get a reaction out of you. And when you finally get to experience that feeling of surprise, it will probably be extremely refreshing.
According to Greater Good Magazine, humans actually need some surprises in their lives. Experiencing them activates the dopamine system in our brains, allowing us to focus our attention and inspiring us to see the situation from a new perspective.

In their book Surprise: Embrace the Unpredictable and Engineer the Unexpected, Tania Luna and Leeann Renninger break down the four stages of our surprise response. These include freeze, find, shift, and share.
First, we stop in our tracks when we see a surprise; then, we try to understand what’s going on. Next, we begin to shift our perspective, and finally, we feel pulled to share the surprise with others.

If you’re wondering how to invite more surprise and wonder into your life, Luna and Renninger have some tips. First, you have to “reframe vulnerability as openness and take deliberate steps to be more vulnerable.”
While many people tend to stay closed off and avoid vulnerability, that makes it impossible to ever be caught off guard and surprised. But once you learn how to view that openness in a positive light, you’ll be able to experience all of the joy that can come along with wonderful surprises.
Ur The Gay Factory
From National Library: "The authors investigated the role of homosexual arousal in exclusively heterosexual men who admitted negative affect toward homosexual individuals." "Both groups exhibited increases in [arousal] to the heterosexual and female homosexual videos. Only the homophobic men showed an increase in [arousal] to male homosexual stimuli. The groups did not differ in aggression. Homophobia is apparently associated with homosexual arousal that the homophobic individual is either unaware of or denies." (Is homophobia associated with homosexual arousal? National Library of Medicine NIH)

Another way to make sure you’re being surprised more often is by participating in activities where you have no idea what the outcome will be. Don’t be scared to take risks. Ask your boss for that raise, ask out the neighbor you’ve been crushing on for months, and don’t be scared to enter that competition. You really never know what could happen. And while surprises won’t always be good, it’s worth it to take those risks. It’s a lot better than being bored!

If you’re having a hard time finding the courage to start branching out and taking big risks, Luna and Renninger recommend making a “struggle sandwich.” This is when you sprinkle small risks that are more likely to have a positive outcome in between the bigger, scarier risks. This way, you’ll experience little confidence boosts more frequently, and the surprises that don’t pan out won’t feel as devastating. Over time, you’ll build resilience, and you’ll start to feel less afraid of taking huge risks.

Most of us lost a lot of our childlike curiosity and wonder after we became adults, but we urge you to channel that part of you once again, pandas. Walk down that street near your home that you’ve never passed through before. Ask your colleagues questions about their hobbies that you know nothing about. Pick up a book that you would have never thought to read before. Surprises aren’t always going to find us; sometimes we have to seek them out.

In a similar vein, another way to experience more surprise in your life is by mixing up your routine. Try a new restaurant, take a new route to work, and try a new hobby that you’ve never done before. Life becomes boring and starts passing extremely quickly when we know exactly what to expect and are exposed to the same people and places every day. But once you start to spice things up, you’ll begin craving that feeling of newness and surprise!

Straight Men Would Do Everything Gay Men Do If Straight Men Could But Straight Men Can't Because Women Won't
It means that men are generally more, shall we say, séxually adventurous compared to women. Since gay men can live that out with each other, straight men envy them, since straight women aren't, overall, as DTF as gay men, for various reasons. ETA: Dan Savage is a well known séx advice columnist amd initiator of the "It gets better" campaign and that's one of his most famous quotes.
Load More Replies...Research has shown that women are as down for séx with a stranger as men are, but they have to feel that they will be safe first. So that’s all down to straight men.
Funny he emphasizes straight men but he won't say straight women. Just women. 🙄
Lesbian women aren't really relevant in the scenario that Dan Savage's quote is alluding to. Apart from that I wouldn't be surprised to learn that lesbian women are less often in open relationships compared to straight people or gay men.
