When Jimmy Fallon says “It's Hashtags time!” we know we are about to chuckle, cringe, laugh and blow raspberries because the responses have an entertainment value unlike anything else.

“Tweet something funny or weird that you used to think and tag it with #IUsedToThink,” Fallon announced on Twitter before sharing his own story. “I used to think that if I turned on the light in the back seat while the car was moving, we would get pulled over by the police and my parents would go to jail for 50 years,” he recounted.

Now, the relay is on to the people on Twitter, who, inspired by the comedian’s challenge, are now sharing their most embarrassing, unstaged, and plain hilarious stories about things they were one hundred percent sure about (which they weren’t).

I thought you were arrested. At night. With a pillowcase over your head. And taken to a secret location.. And have stories written about you that would make everyone relieved you had disappeared.

There is nothing vague about SEC classified documents and those who have access to them or those who can alter their classification. Ironically, the presidential records act, of which was most recently violated multiple times, was championed and supported by a particular political party hoping to snare up and catch the president before the one who got caught.

It depends if you have metal powers to declassify them. Or you can ask the supreme court to make you a solid and let you get away with it.

    In elementary school, we had handouts to color in and do fun puzzles on that were part of our nutrition education. They were so cool, because they had the McDonalds logo on them. We had schoolwork from McDonalds. That was fun. It’s also where we were taught we needed and daily dose of meat and, more importantly, hamburgers grew in grassy, sunny rolling hillsides in hamburger patches.

    Jimmy Fallon’s hashtag challenge is a phenomenon that has kept its appeal and engagement throughout the years. “It’s Hashtags Time!” announces the presenter of a legendary American late-night talk show and sooner than you know it, the responses start flooding in. People are sharing their genuine responses about pretty personal things like their worst dates, silly things that happened to them, embarrassing stories and everything you can think of.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    While social media has made constant exposure a common experience, you may wonder what it is about expressing yourself on there which is so appealing and almost irresistible. It seems like we don’t have a solid filter for things we share (and sometimes overshare) and tweet about on a daily basis.

    It really doesn't matter who is President but all the other politicians really want you to believe that it does so that they can distract you from what they're doing. The President, Congress and Supreme Court. Think about the role each plays, especially in the long term life of the Country. The President has very little power which is far reaching and long lasting. Congress has the ability to create law that is enforceable throughout the country. The Supreme Court has the ability to strike law down or uphold it. The single most lasting power a President has is the appointment of an SC Justice. Other than that people really should be much more concerned with Congress and the very political Supreme Court. There is a very significant reason why Congress stonewalled Obama on his SC nominee in 2016 and it had nothing to do with Obama being a 'lame duck' at the time. Stacking the SC is a federal politicians wet dream and the republicans got to have theirs while Trump was in office. After all, how often do you hear about any politician hoping for a fair and balanced court? If they actually cared about the betterment of the Country they'd be all for a fair and balanced court.

    In houses without a power-shower, the water pressure fluctuates when you flush the toilet, meaning the cold water going to the shower now goes to the toilet and the shower just gets hot water. Very hot water!

    *pees in the shower* LOL! Yeah the cold water would reduce making the shower nothing but hot scalding lava. Oddly, in my place, the well water is so cold that we have a mix valve on the toilet to keep the water moderately warm so as not to cause condensation on the seat looking like someone missed their target. So when we flush, temperature doesn't change in the shower, just a minor pressure thing. Now, run the washer on cold water while in and some serious $hit will go down!

    One day (can't remember why) my mom had a police officer in her driveway. Imagine their surprise when using his radio caused her garage door to open. He did it a second time to make sure he did it and not someone else. They were using the same frequency. She had to have the people who installed the opener change the frequency, because the officer patrolled her neighborhood.

    I used to have a garage door opener on my motorcycle that also opened 3 more garages on my street if I used it before I got to my house. I didn't realize until a neighbor came to complain that each time I returned home, I opened her garage. Also, a friend had a remote control for his TV that opened his garage. It was a long time ago, I think it was ultrasonic.

    Dr. Tang argues that “Unfortunately, with the limited characters to write a Twitter post, or the limited attention people give to social media in general (because of the extreme wealth of information available), this can mean posts that are ill thought through, or the so-called 'fake news,' because of their 'drama,' may get more initial attention.”

    According to her, catching attention is immediate, though, and not necessarily thoughtful. “Unless we take the time to process what we are reading, it is all too easy to share something which then influences the next person who has not taken the time to consider their true views either.”

    Also, turn the box upside down and look at the bottom (preferably after you have closed it again). If an egg has a cracked bottom, you will see a telltale dried smear on the cardboard.

    How did they not know this? First of all, as a kid I would help my mom do this process, so I knew why from a very young age. But as an adult, at least 50% of the time the first carton I open has a cracked egg inside.

    On some occasions, the mistakes we make on social media by sharing something we haven’t thought through well can make people rethink their behavior. “At a low level, it can humble people – examples of this are perhaps Victoria Beckham doing a u-turn on using the furlough process when other celebrities such as Ed Sheeran were using their own funds to support their employees,” Dr. Tang argues.

    Because you were told that by your parents, never bothered to confirm it, and passed it on to your kids genuinely believing it to be true. That being said dome lights at night can be dangerous and if you are in an accident can be used as part of determining fault

    My parents had a car when I was really young and later didn't have any, so I wasn't used to travel in a car, but I still had anxiety when my boyfriend let me turn on that light when I was packing my things. But I didn't think it's not allowed, probably more like dad said me it would drain battery or what, which is nonsense too, when it's only for a while. (I don't remember exactly, it was too long ago, but anxiety stayed.)

    I learned this as a teen when my best friend died. My group of friends were so kind to each other, stopped gossiping, really put effort into letting each other know we cared. That lasted a few months and it slowly dissolved back to how it was before. I slowly pulled away from all my friends then picked a college none of them were going to. My friend dying did change me and it wasn’t a temporary thing. I picked different friends at college.

    To be fair...people deal with grief differently. I know it can be painful when you are still thick in your feelings of loss; it almost seems like sacrilege when others aren't in that same place. But, some people can take in, process, and move forward more quickly than others, & sometimes a death can have a more profound impact on one person than it does another. It does sound like those old friends had some toxic behaviors anyhow, so it's good you were able to separate yourself from that & find better ones.

    I always thought that despite our political differences, when things like the pandemic and the need to wear masks came, the American public had a base line decency and was tough enough to come together for the good of everyone. Boy was I wrong. I guess to me, the pandemic was a good thing as it showed just how weak and selfish my fellow countrymen are. I also think it striped off the mask and we can see how truly rotten some of our businesses and the political right is. When I listen to people like my folks, it is sad to see how intentionally delusional they are. They have learned to simply ignore all the ugliness their guys do while complaining that "this one liberal person did this one thing (possible but likely untrue). It has made me question whether the country has changed or if it has always been this way. The thing I am certain of is the right will not stop until they squeeze the life out of everything decent. Unless they are made to stop, insanity will prevail.

    When I was a kid I thought that bands only played their most popular song (singular) at concerts since in TV shows and movies that is usually all you would see of a concert. I used to think what a waste of time it was to drive somewhere and deal with all those people just to hear one song.

    I worked at a Dollar Tree in college. One day a toddler asked his mom for a quarter for the machines up front. She had only brought her card with her, not her entire purse, so she said "I'm sorry baby but I don't have any money right now." Crying, he responded "well, we're at the store, buy some!"

    Here’s something for our German speaking pandas: I lived in Germany for a few years as a child and teenager. One day, in primary school, the teacher prepared us for our first trip to the library. She explained that “die Bibliote Karin” will show us around. 7 year old me deducted from this that clearly “Bibliote” meant librarian and that her name was Karin.

    ? It’s not? I will have to Google the lyrics then because I’ve always sung it that way… But then I thought ( Beyoncé?), said when she sang, ‘ all the Senegalese, woah woah, put a ring on it’ and couldn’t understanding how that could make sense until my friend said, ‘it’s all the *single ladies.* 🤦‍♀️

    Even though this is the case, please don’t hate on people who eat meat and dairy! Part of the reason i don’t become vegetarian is because I don’t process dairy/ eggs well so meat is my only main source of protein. (Nut allergy too😑) But people will shame me! Specifically my dance teacher, who called me ignorant and sheltered for my choice. My mate was quick to defend me, but still. She was from Texas and London definitely wasn’t the place for her to be preaching veganism.

    This is a family joke. All the photos of when my parents were young are in black and white. So if something happened a long time ago, we say "back when the world was in black and white". There doesn't seem to be much evidence that things were in colour as they have very few possessions from back then. The 60s and 70s were definitely in colour as we have photos to prove it, plus I remember the (hideous) orange carpet that they had in the kitchen!

    And in the 60s and 70s reality had that washed out look. Which brings me to modern times. We can tell digital photos by the poor quality they had in the 2000, but modern, multi-megapixel photos will look the same for eternity (or until the medium degrades). That will be weird.

She was on the phone during a thunderstorm, lightning struck the lawnmower her stepdad had left outside, arced thru an open basement window and this little ball lightning travelled up the cord. She had enough time to pull it away from her head. Toasted the phone and her hand was tingly for a while.

    it's possible. The pipes to the shower conduct electricity. If the lightning happens to hit the roof and the electricity goes down those pipes, you pretty much will get fried.

    This is actually true. We ground lightning deterrent systems to water pipes as grounds in commercial buildings since the pipes go underground but also to not electrocute someone if they are washing their hands during a lightning storm.

    Growing up, I was taught not to shower or use the phone when lightning was in the area. Still don't to this day because if your house happened to be struck (rare but could happen) you could be electrocuted. Maybe not enough to kill you, depending, but it would still have to hurt.

    Madge was a nail technician and would have her clients soak their hands in Palmolive. They’d be horrified when they find out, but Madge would convince them by saying that it was gentle on hands but tough on grease. Impressed, they’d put their hands back in the water and get a great manicure. This was in the 70’s and I was a young child, so I hope I remember it right. : )

    I remember thinking that Spider-Man 's hand gesture when he's shooting webs was bad... thought it was as bad as the middle finger for some reason... That was back when I knew literally nothing about Spider-Man.
