Sometimes people use the internet to think aloud and share their inner most thoughts, but along with this oversharing comes bored internet commenters armed with rapid-fire comebacks. Tumblr is the perfect site to witness some of the most entertaining internet back and forth exchanges. You might think you know where a thread is going, but in these examples you will see that things can take a turn with the push of a button. In some of these threads users chose to share witty fake facts, while others chose to troll the poster on a more personal level. Bored Panda has rounded up some hilarious Tumblr conversations that took a surprise twist. From the brutal to the random, don’t forget to upvote your favorites!

Yeah! Those stupid tress making oxygen so we can breathe. It pretty unbelievable if you ask me.
Babies and mothers can swap haematopoietic stem stems and thus become chimerae of each other. Probably a good reason to look very carefully at potential mothers-in-law before committing to your beloved... :-)
It to bad that the third movie didn't do well or we would of gotten more of that Spider-Man
I once got asked by a Canadian (online) how Sydney could host the Olympics, they did not know we had cities, thought the whole country was the outback.
Are you telling me you don't live in the desert with pet kangaroos

I got a call because they were frantic that they would not be able to rent off-road vehicles at the airport to reach the university. Cause, you know, Arkansas doesn't actually have roads...
Well, at least they were not looking for a stagecoach.

I was raised Methodist and had someone who was raised Catholic ask me if it were true that we sacrificed cows. She was serious. She was 40-something.
As a former Methodist (the church leadership is becoming far too conservative, forgetting that we are saved by Grace, not acts). I can confirm. Cows, typically in the form of stew, are regularly sacrificed via consumption in the Fellowship Hall during potlucks.

To add to the above, they used the old 20th century copper telephone network, which even the owner Telstra didn't want because it was falling to pieces. Go figure.

A woman from Germany asked if it was super cold in Poland all the time. We are neighbors. Climate is the same. No polar bears in the streets. It has been over 30 degrees since may...
My German host family refused to believe it gets to 40 degrees (Celsius/Centigrade) in Ohio. Yeah, every Summer. Maybe for just a few days, but we can go for a week or more at 32 degrees. No, they told me, I just didn't understand thermometers. Decades later, I still think of them every Summer.

I get asked all the time if we have electricity- roads- cars( vs donkeys and camels) houses (vs tents) or Starbucks(!) in the Middle East (I lived in different countries). Trust me we have a Starbucks at every corner. The only thing out of the list we can really do without.
Starbucks exists by the grace of people who don't like coffee

Remember the BP tattoo thread with the lady with a "galaxy" of dots over her breasts, and a guy with abs depicted by dots? It seems that they should each have an entry in 'World Geography 1948' too...
I just cant see a cat enjoying garlic bread, this was clearly done out of spite. I love cats but they can be utter bastards
Wear it on a chain round your neck and no-one will know you are desperate.
I've actually heard of this fact but yeah so I guess that monster in my nightmare is just probably Jeff from work
the look on the cats face in the picture really compliments this one
There was this girl in my class who had a strong American accent purely from watching too much tv as a kid. Nobody in her family or friends group were American.
Darn. I love walking around alone in the middle of the night, and now I'm going to be doing it with the idea in my head that everyone is feeling me...
You can have sex when you're married? Oh boy have I got something to tell my wife!
*raises hand* I'm one of those people who orders ginger ale on a plane.
It's an arti that was choked of course. Oh, the cruelty of it all!
