This Instagram Page Is Dedicated To The Weirdest And Funniest Texts From Family And Here Are 50 Of The Best Ones
With smartphones becoming a thing within the last 10-15 years, we can safely assure you that a whole new realm of humiliation has emerged with the advancement of technology and communication, especially with the rise of social media platforms. As much as we try to avoid it, sometimes when typing a text, we tend to misspell something or even misunderstand the message we received from the person on the other end.
However, sometimes small mistakes, misunderstandings, and a sprinkle of some family drama make up for some of the most entertaining conversations. An Instagram account by the name of "yourshi*tyfamily" collects funny texts between family members and is a perfect example of that.
From dad jokes to moms sending their children some outdated memes, this page is a gold mine for cringe and hilarious content.

Neeeeear, faaaaar, whereeeeever you areeeee 🎶 And the chicken sinks like the Titanic
The Instagram page has a whopping 923K followers seeking to get their daily dose of family drama and misunderstandings. The account posts the best encounters with parents (usually) and other family members demonstrating they are the world's greatest comedians, taking typically ordinary chats between family members and making them absolutely spectacular.
From a mom acknowledging her sense of fashion might not be the best (to the point of thinking that if something looks cool in her eyes, then it probably needs to be burned on a stake) to children forgetting to thaw the chicken and trying to make their way out of it, this page has you covered for every life situation you might find yourself in. It's taking relatable to a whole new level.
And the best thing about this page? Well, they accept submissions from real-life people just like you and I, so the texts that do get posted are things that actually happened and just got re-shared by the Instagram page. So if you think you have some hilarious texts between your... mom/dad/siblings/step-siblings/uncles/aunts/grandparents and even cousins you visit once a year during a family gathering, well, you better make that submission right now!
"Hiya kids. Here is an important message from your Uncle Bill. Don't buy drugs. Become a pop star, and they give you them for free!"
I also wear two different shoes, way too hard to fit into one anymore
With that being said, the 'unspirational' page "yourshi*tyfamily" has over 1,468 posts on Instagram. So all of us can find joy in our mundane lives knowing that our family might not be the craziest one out there (or is it?).
Tell us, Pandas, what strange, bizarre or even awkwardly hilarious texts have you received from your family? We'd love for you to share your stories in the comments as well!
When I got my first tattoo my mum didn't speak to me for 8 weeks... it was very peaceful
Proud kid of a great parent who is sometimes an a*s hole... And works overtime at it.
Wow.... I just realized that I have never paid this compliment to any of my children... They raised annoying me to an art level.. But not to worry - I annoyed them right back!
How sad!! It's one of the best things in childhood. And so much fun and bonding. Do you want me to read to you to catch up?
That should be a service you can buy! Like live audiobook reading where you can ask the person to "Do the funny voice again!".

I was literally thinking about my grandma reading to me in bed last night and how much I adored it. She's been dead 19 years now and I miss her so much. My parents also read to me and I adored reading so much I could read before I went to school. Then as a teacher I used to be shocked when kids told me they have not even one book at home or go to the library, even those from wealthy families. Makes me so angry and sad, especially with library books being free there is no excuse.
Ok now I want to volunteer in a library to read to kids every once in a while... The question is how would a minor do that-
you should head to the library & ask the librarian if you could host a storytime every saturday or sunday for an hour or two! chances are the library would LOVE to host a regular event like that & parents would love a weekly activity to get their kids out of the house & keep them entertained. being a minor probably won't stop them from letting you, in fact i bet the librarians would be overjoyed to see a young person taking an interest in bettering the community & spreading a love of reading :) good luck, tiger!!

I can't deal with some of the fonts used in kids books. So I made up a whole universe for my kid based around his late grandad being a kind pirate. He loves them and I don't have to deal with the books.
I can't deal with the grammar and content of some children's books... When it's "funny" when the protagonist (a toddler) finishes the whole big bowl of chocolate pudding that was meant for the whole family, or when the rooster lays eggs... My sister actually went so far as to put a sticker over some lines of text that are questionable and correct them, but I'm just wondering how some things got past the editors...

My Grandmother was a children's librarian and would bring home huge piles of books when I went to visit.
I thought I was the only one. My friends would talk about how their parents would sing them lullabies or read them books when they were kids. I thought that was only in the movies.
Yeah, I got one story outta my grandma when she came to visit.. But then she went back home on the other side of the continent. The first book my parents wanted me to read was Harry Potter at age 5, because my brother read the first one at age 8. I didn't read for a while after that.
My ex-girlfriend still reads to me, sometimes school books and sometimes good books
when i was in 3rd grade my mom finally started reading us to bed...she read harry potter
So many #momgoals moments here. My poor 5 year old has no idea what kind of sassy karma is in store for him!
I think I entered full mom mode a couple weeks ago. I was picking up my kids from after school program, my 7yr old daughter told me to stop "goofing around, I was embarrassing her". I was hugging her, kissing her on the cheek and just being a goof. While my son(6m) was trying to climbing on my back, trying to kiss my cheek. I have great balance, no danger.
