Before the internet, many folks could go to sleep happily sure that their neighbors and other random people around the world were, by and large, quite rational and normal. The internet has revealed that, in reality, some folks are just very strange.
We’ve gathered some of the most bizarre, random and just weird examples of things people have asked netizens online. So get comfortable, prepare to raise your eyebrows in concern, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your own thoughts and stories in the comments below.

What Is It With Parents And Their 14 Yr Olds Stuffed Animals
I am indeed 50 and still sleep with stuffed animals. I use them as support pillows. Plus I think they're cute.
Just The Arrogance
It probably shouldn’t come as a surprise to more veteran internet users that people are, sometimes, pretty strange. Furthermore, these folks will often not even know that they are a bit weird and are perfectly happy to share their thoughts, ideas and questions, no matter how unhinged, online. But the truth is, it’s been like this since there even was an internet.
In the early days of the internet, when you logged on with that screeching dial-up, you didn’t just find useful information or friendly communities. You discovered how bizarre people could be when nobody was watching.
Can’t Blame The Daughter
Just Your Standard Postage Question
Fan mail does not go to the star's home. They have people to handle it.
Oof Ow My Privacy
Chat rooms quickly became breeding grounds for trolls who hid behind anonymous handles to hurl insults or spread conspiracy theories, turning what should have been casual conversation into a minefield of hostility and paranoia. Conversely, the internet also gave people who never had to deal with pushback an opportunity to share their ideas to millions with the protection of anonymity.
She Should Be Proud And Supportive
How and why does she have access to her adult son's bank account?!?!
This Is Incredibly Disgusting, And Also Child Abuse
Can You Even Go Back To Normal Life After What You've Done???
Personal web pages, once intended as simple online diaries, morphed into cluttered nightmares of blinking GIFs, auto-playing MIDI jingles, and bold declarations that “YOU MUST SIGN MY GUESTBOOK!” It wasn’t artful quirkiness so much as an overwhelming a*****t on your senses, leaving you desperate for a clean, uncluttered screen. Try looking up a 90s or an early 2000s webpage if you are curious.
Insane
All Women Were Lesbian Before The Invention Of Baby Bottles And Formula!
Sir, your daughter may become a lesbian because of the image you give her of males.
... what?.... You should not be allowed to have children...I mean.... What....? WHAT?.... How did you make it to adulthood?... And how did you convince a girl to have s*x with you....and marry you!?? What!!!?
You don't sound "CalmAndCollected", but in this instance, you get a pass. 🙂
Load More Replies...You are putting s*x into the equation when your baby doesn’t even know what that is. Women’s breasts produce milk to feed your children, male or female and that is it. Whether your daughter ends up lesbian has nothing to do with breastfeeding. She won’t even remember being breastfed. You maybe should get some counseling because believe me this is nothing compared to when your daughter starts developing breasts. You can’t think of her being a sexual being because that function doesn’t exist in her world right now.
Thank you. I could not articulate that without exasperated sputtering.
Load More Replies...How about not sexualising the acts of a freaking baby, if this is the lens thru which you view your children then as they grow older they will be weirded out at best and develop all sorts of unhealthy relationships with others cos fear and discomfort in their company you utter p**o minded jackal.
In all my comments, I try to be polite, follow BP rules, and keep the site friendly. So I guess op should be proud of themselves, because I'm going to break my own rules just for them. What the AF is wrong with you??? Tell me, do you remember every bottle your mama ever gave you? Are b***s the magical land where lesbians come from? Quit sexualizing your infant children you creepy p e d o, and let your daughter nurse in peace.
Tbh you ain’t wrong as someone else said he’s sexualizng a baby girl s**t me that blokes a p do right there isn’t he 🤬🤢
Load More Replies...How does this widget think babies were fed for the thousands of years before bottles and formula? By her logic, every female child on earth would have been "made a lesbian."
What an idiot. Our b***s are for feeding our babies when we have them. It doesn't matter if the baby is a boy or a girl!
You know, I had my mother's tit in my mouth once upon a time. The saving grace is that I don't remember any of that, because as an adult, ewwwww! Anyway, once the deviants get over themselves they might realise that the actual purpose of tïts is not fondling or staring at, it's baby nutrition. So having a nïpple in a baby's mouth is not only normal, but the entire idea that it could make a girl a lesbian shows how, frankly, completely bloody messed up the OP is. 🤦🏻♀️
Seen this before and it's always hilarious. Those are some impressive mental gymnastics!
Well my brother wasn’t interested in breast feeding when he was a baby and now he’s gay /s
Fun fact: before the bottle was invented, all girls turned into lesbians. That’s why there are no more people alive today
It's probably the same guy who thought that his one year old son is gay, because he like colours. Or his close relative.
Defintively some people should be forbidden to have any offspring whatsoever
OP, the breastfeeding may make your wife Lesbian. Happens all the time. This is sarcasm. You're an idiot. Stop breeding.
You are projecting problems onto a situation that has a natural explanation. All infants are not the same! Moreover, males are usually weaker than females; that could account for your daughter seeming to "attack" your wife's breast. If your daughter turns out to be a lesbian, it will have nothing to do with breastfeeding which is the most natural way of feeding an infant. What makes someone gay or lesbian is not clearly known. Some of it may be genetic; some may be due to bad experiences with the opposite gender. Forget it!!! Your infant cannot yet even walk so you do not need to be obsessing on the child's sexual orientation!!! If it bothers you so much, go get counselling with a psychologist!
She's a different person than your son, apparently with a more aggressive appetite. You however, are an idiot.
That's not how this works. Learn to read books, perhaps you can become smarter.
Yikes
You’d click “Next” on a link and find yourself knee-deep in amateur rants about government mind control or manifestos demanding prayer for your Tamagotchi’s soul. As it turns out, the knowledge required to create and maintain an early internet page was not a barrier for some of the stranger folks out there.
Psycho Parent
You're racist and can't dictate who he dates especially if he's an adult.
Must Be A Karen
Does This Mean It’s Over?
You should go to her house... But let her ex know first... Also... Let the police know you're coming. Bring a fake gun that looks real and point it at everybody you see when you get there. That's the proper response in this situation
Email chains were equally maddening. Amid genuine messages from friends and family, you’d receive endless forwards, often claiming the world would end if you didn’t send the message to ten people, or bizarre tales of mutant vegetables walking off supermarket shelves. Your inbox became a battleground between the practical need to stay in touch and the futile effort to sift through digital junk.
Umm... What? She Wants To Call The Cops On The Person Minding His Own Business In His Own House
Hypothetically
Just Wow
And the trolls, oh, the trolls. They lurked in every corner, ready to derail threads with spam, slurs, or deeply unsettling “jokes.” Anonymous usernames gave them free rein to harass newcomers or hijack threads with nonsense, turning what might have been a helpful tip exchange into a depressing spectacle of pettiness.

How To Make Your Child Grow Up
Looking back, those first online communities revealed something darker about human nature: given a screen and a password, people often choose chaos over civility, spectacle over substance. The early internet wasn’t a charming town square, it was more like a dark carnival, where the weirdest, loudest, and most aggressive voices always seemed to drown out the rest.
They Even Took The Bed
Nice
Butt Out
We can see the after echo's of that in these sorts of threads, just strange people sharing strange thoughts online. But, take heart, for every bizarre comment or request, there are hundreds of very normal ones from very normal people. It’s just that the strangest parts tend to stand out at the end of the day.
Perfect Relationship Doesn't Exist
You're an idiot, he's older than you, you're not married to her and definitely NOT his stepfather.
This Kids Life Sounds Horrible
Sue Him For Building His House Next To You Too, He Had No Right To Do So!!!!!!
Yeah! You Should Totally Go On The Date And Get This 27 Year Old Man In Potential Danger With The Law!

If you want to convince your daughters that they don't know anything, make them think they inherited their intelligence from you.
Wtf
If the teacher does not actually know then this is a violation and a form of bullying toward their student by claiming a false narrative against them to cause problems in their life and relationships. If it is based on facts then I don't know if teachers have the right without the students permission.

How Dare He Love His Daughter?!?!?
I mean, yeah, it does affect her personality. But unless it's ACTUAL inappropriate touching, it'll only be positive.
Boy. I Wonder Why He Stopped Cutting Their Hair
Lol WHAT CASE???? Obviously the barber can't stand you and took the easy way out. I tell customers straight to their face that I refuse to work on them ( very rare but has happened) What part of right of admission reserved do you not understand?

Why Do People Like This Exist?
He Just A Little Old Fashioned
I do not understand parents who don't allow their kids privacy in their own room. Being under observation at all times is a*****e and terribly damaging for the mental health. When I was 14 I liked to pose in front of my mirror in a towel pretending it was a beautiful dress. Perfectly harmless, totally private. I'd examine my growing breasts to see if they were any bigger. Perfectly normal, totally private.

Z Is For Z**philia And P Is For P*dophilia
I laugh because these are hilarious then I want to cry because people are genuinely this stupid (even if some of these are trolls… hopefully).
I stopped after the first page. Amusingly stupid, and most likely all fake. Either that or the world is full of complete bellends.
These are not mutually exclusive conditions. Both may be true.
Load More Replies...Okay but everyone in the comments deserves a pat on the back because some of the replies here on BP were hilarious.
Kudos to the response from Pandas. Some are better than the questions.
It's nice to know that there are dumber people in the world than we think there is.
The stupidity of man never reaches rock bottom cause the stupidity of man is infinite
BP, your stupid pagination has completely broken the ability to follow one’s notifications to see replies to one’s comments. The code that directs the links to the comments doesn’t know which page the comment is on and so loads only the first page. Fix this!
First I thought they were all made up. But then I remembered...Americans...
To be fair, they might not be American. There are stupid morons everywhere.
Load More Replies...I'm astonished that these people even managed to get online...
I suspect that 90% of these are fake, Quora seems to be full of people asking fake questions for "shock" value.
This was one of my favorites just because of the comments ! You guys crącked me up so much!! 😂. (Edit: apparently “crącked” is a censored word? I didn’t want anyone thinking they cøcked me up! 😂)
Actually this is so funny... although the level of stupidity in this just makes me want to avoid Quora altogether XD
Only the first few had the brilliant rebuttal. I stopped reading when these ran out.
I couldn't get through the whole list. The stupidity and entitlement here made me angry.
Oddly enough, a number of the AITAH stories here were featured at some point on BP. As for the others, for my blood pressure I just have to pretend these are rage bait stories so that I can keep my blood pressure numbers within a reasonable range.
Quota is full of trolls Their moderation is non existant. These will mostly be made up
