“Wait A Minute”: 50 Of The Best ‘Wait What’ Moments, As Shared By This Dedicated Community
Many things can call for a double-check, be it something unusual we thought we saw at the store (until we glanced at it again and realized it was nothing out of the ordinary) or something unexpected we noticed while browsing on the computer. No matter the scenario, such situations typically make us stop in our tracks for a second and go “wait, what?!”
Plenty of situations evoking such a reaction are shared on the subreddit titled exactly that. Boasting more than 14,000 members, the ‘Wait What’ community is dedicated to all sorts of unexpected turns of events and humorous stories, some of which you can find in the list below; so scroll down to view them and see for yourself how a joke can stop you dead in your tracks.

Vaccines Exposed
I don't think this was the experience Laurence was expecting.
Laurence is probably still disappointed. To that i say, OH WELL
Load More Replies...This is the same as when you check how many stars an item has received from buyers and there is always someone who gives a one star review. You read it and find it's because it was stolen from their front porch. Really helpful.
Or they didn't read what the product description was - drives me crazy!
Load More Replies...I like it but I doubt most antivaxxers take the time to read more than the initial post.
And they include it it their claims of the number of people who had "bad reactions" to the vaccine ".
Load More Replies...Haha love it. I believe Laurence was hoping for a “don’t take the vaccine for gods sake it’s poisoned” or something like that. They’re probably antivax and wanted some juicy shït to tell other antivaxers. Well not this time Laurence. 🤣
Hmmmm
In most parts of the world, sharing a grandma isn't a problem. The BMJ (British Medical Journal) says the increased risk of genetic problems with cousins procreate is 2-3%. However, when cousin-marriage is the norm, rather than the exception, these risks rack up quickly.
imo, the issue here isn't the potential for genetic issues, moreso the ick factor of doing something like that with someone you were raised as family with

Load More Replies...At today's divorce rate and number of patchwork families, the chance of them not beingcrelated to each other is quite high. If "our" is about family connections and not blood line.
I think it's more likely the person is a first-language speaker of a language that uses possessives slightly differently.
Load More Replies...Personally I'd have said the best case is the person is using the wrong possessive adjective tbh.

And those licenses are for if they ever feel the need for a fresh start, she can start that new life with the name of her choice!
Load More Replies...You could actually be right about that. Many of the notorious serial killers tend to live contrasting lives.
Load More Replies...While typically accompanying something rather shocking, wait, what moments can actually benefit a person, as surprising information is believed to enhance one’s memory, consequently helping them learn.
According to Scientific American, novelty within a familiar context allows a person to store a certain event in their memory more easily, thanks to the brain part known as the ‘novelty detector’.
Located in the temporal lobe of the cerebral cortex, for those well familiar with what’s happening inside our heads, the said ‘novelty detector’ is the hippocampus—one of the most significant brain regions in regards to discovering, processing, and storing sensory information.
The reason why the hippocampus is called the ‘novelty detector’ is because it is activated more by new stimuli than by something one is already familiar with.
Shaming Is Bad, No Matter Who It's Directed To
Anyone with religious c**p on their car is guaranteed to be either a road rager, red light runner, stops/parks on crosswalks, or turns through crossing pedestrians. The more overtly religious they are less ethical they are. The only moral xians I've ever met were the ones that I learnt their religious views by accident.
Or someone that rolls down their window at the red light and screams at you to not text and drive. When I wasn't doing. My phone was on the dash holder for GPS and I hadn't touched my phone at all. Her and her husband starting taking pictures of me and recording me. They were scary.
Load More Replies...Took me way longer than I would like to admit - I blame my cluelessness on the fact that it is Monday morning.
👁️👃 👁️ What
Hard to decide if this is more of a hold up post, or more of a technically correct post.
Scientific American continued to explain that the hippocampus compares new information with already stored knowledge, and if the information doesn’t match—meaning that there’s something new and likely surprising—it releases a pulse of dopamine into one’s system.
After traveling through different parts of the brain, it connects to the hippocampus again and triggers release of more dopamine, creating a feedback mechanism known as the hippocampal-SN/VTA loop, which can help people memorize and learn things more easily.
Wait A Dang Minute
Wildest thing about this is that the message from Monster is older than the breaking news alert!
I was just reading an online article about a growing tumor. The ad on the page proclaimed experience new growth! It made me laugh.
As a cancer survivor, I would really like to turn down that offer...Thank you I guess? 😁
Load More Replies...I was reading a bp article about last words. One of my friends in a group chat with like five other people said "nah everyone died" bc no one said anything for a few hrs. Yep.
Everyone Would Use Shapeshifting In Their Own Ways I Guess
Okay I love this, would totally choose the last option .. freak the c**p out of that old a-hole
If she were still alive, I'd only have to tell my mum that I'm dating a second generation non-western immigrant. She'd have apoplexy! The funny part is: my boyfriend's family has been Dutch for centuries, and they're whiter than snow. My boyfriend's dad was born abroad because his parents travelled a lot, and that's why he went into the books as a non-western immigrant 🤣
Load More Replies...I’d turn into someone who I hate and say really rude stuff that they’d say to me normally but I’d say it to the people who are still friends with them >:D
Most people choose invisibility or flying, but shape-shifting would be the ultimate super power. And it would include most other super powers. Matching the scenery = invisibility. Becoming a bird = flying.
I often wonder about "super power rules". Like with shapeshifting. Can you change mass as well as shape? Or do you become a 40 foot long dragon, that only weighs 80kg? Or you can become a bunny rabbit... that weighs 80kg... And can you actually become metal, or just flesh that looks like metal, in which case you'd be a wobbly robot... that weighs 80kb. Do you have to understand the biology and physiology as well or do you look like a dragon, but you can't breathe fire or fly because you don't make the organs required. On a different note, it seems likely that if you had the degree of control required to change shape perfectly then you'd also be immune to aging, pretty much any non-instantly fatal injury and potentially diseases as well.
Ah Ken… like me, you have probably also pondered how wings would actually attach to the human body if we managed to fuse science & fantasy to give us wings. The scapula just wouldn’t work, so would they have to attach to arms too, or replace the scapula?
Load More Replies...You're still going to have the same mass and the same weight, so take that into your calculations.
Wait What
The Duolingo owl has always creeped me out. There is something wrong with that bird!
This is what you signed up for with the T&C's. When a streak is broken, so is one item on your body.
Our memory—and consequently, our ability to learn—are not the only aspects that tend to be affected by unexpected wait, what moments. In a Ted Talk back in 2019, a psychologist and professor emeritus at Southern Oregon University, as well as an expert in life-changing events, Dr. Michael A. Rousell, PhD, suggested that surprises can change our beliefs, too.
That's Just How I Am
It says here you're positive for meth...so can you work a double tonight?
Sounds like my boss! I quit drinking in 2011, apparently my drinking was not the cause of my weirdness.
Same lol! I quit and the weirdness didn't end 🤷♀️
Load More Replies...We don't say weird anymore. We call ourselves aspies, but you have to say neurodivergent, and you can't fire us! Bwah- ha-ha-haaaah!
Plot Twist!
im lactose intolerant, and i eat ice cream sometimes, and it's always on purpose.
My mother is lactose intolerant and is always “surprised” when she gets horrifically ill after eating ice cream or cheese XD “But I took my lactose pill!” yeah bruh you took it AS YOU WERE EATING the ice cream… if you want those enzymes to help, you gotta take ‘em in ADVANCE.
Load More Replies...Another post that seems more like a “techniquely correct” post. This type of interaction happens a lot on all dating apps. “I’m not actually looking for a partner, just like looking at pictures”, has been said to me in several variations. Best one was when we actually went on the date, and she told me she was just trolling for comedy material, and then she apologized and said “there’s nothing funny about a guy who’s polite”. Strangest backhand complement ever.
Nah, the metaphor isn't right at all. Like I said in another comment, he isn't in the dairy aisle. He's in an ice cream store known for shoving samples down their patron's throats

Load More Replies...A picture speaks a thousand words, this picture explains why he is getting divorced.
This picture doesn't explain why the divorce is happening any better than reading only his or her version of events on Reddit.
Load More Replies...My ex and I went out to dinner after signing our divorce papers. The waitress asks us if we're celebrating anything and we said yea, our divorce. She laughed until she realized we were serious, not all divorces are sad 🤷🏻♀️
Can I ask, out of curiosity, what made you guys get divorced? Sounds like you stayed friendly!
Load More Replies...People thinking this picture explains, or that they understand, why these two are getting divorced from this one picture is f*****g WILD. This picture is meaningless to us strangers without more context.
It says a lot more about the people who interpret it than it does about the people in the photo
Load More Replies...I'm always uncomfortable with this kind of photo. Those two women did not consent to have their picture, and the context, spread all over the internet where they will last for years. The ex-wife is well shot of that a. hole.
It's actually a meme image of a Stardew valley YouTuber who divorced everyone in the game
Load More Replies...Professor Rousell started his Ted Talk with an example; he asked the audience to imagine themselves standing in traffic, when they see the car next to them start to hover all of a sudden. “You’d be surprised,” he said, adding that in such an instance, one’s eyes might open wide and their jaw might drop; they are likely to experience a burst of dopamine and instantly stop what they were thinking or doing.
“And then you instantly form a new belief—cars can hover,” the expert continued, and pointed out that people don’t form such a belief intentionally; it happens to them and there’s nothing they can do to undo it.
Oh
Why men think women would like a nude picture of them is beyond me, and I'm a man. I have never heard of a woman actually requesting that.
Yep! Crudely put: I can buy a d*ck in a shop or get a one night stand to have fun. When I'm looking for a man I'm looking at everything else that a man has. Things like a sense of humour, a mature way of solving problems, or a fun outlook on life. Never have I been interested in checking what he's packing.
Load More Replies...Guys: never, ever send a d**k pic unless you are asked to. Not only is it gross and usually unwanted, but in some jurisdictions you can be arrested for that s**t.
Good advice. Forcing someone to look at your genitals without their consent **is** sexual abuse, pure and simple. Advising your friend to commit sexual abuse because you think it will be funny is not the sign of an actual friend.
Load More Replies...Unsolicited pictures is NOT how we get a girl, gentlemen. Tell her a joke or something.
Has sending random nude pics to a girl EVER worked? I'm a guy and girls never just randomly send nudes as an ice breaker without asking for a credit card number.
Lol 😂 And if they do, it’s probably actually a bloke on the other end … of the text/email. Obviously there’s one on the other end of the… ok. I’ll take my foot & mouth & see myself out 🫣
Load More Replies...Hahahaha WTF I can’t stop laughing🤣🤣🤣 what the hell?! Is he stupid or something!? No way he thought the friend asking for his nudes🤣 I can’t!! Don’t send nudes to your friend or the woman!! Unless you’re a girl sending to a man (woman’s shouldn’t do it either but not for the same reason!) DONT-we HATE d-pics. No p3nis pics we haven’t ansked for are not turning us on, more the opposite, a d pic make me dry like Sahara desert! Edit typo
I know. Just to chat to her about something you both have in common. It's non-sexual and therefore non-threatening, as a way to initiate communication. Plus, generalised chit-chat is an essential step in making sure you don't start dating someone you really wish you'd know more about to start with (e.g. racist)
Load More Replies...She DEFINITELY doesn't want them! If she didn't ask for nudes she DOESN'T WANT NUDES!
I Would’ve Stared Back And Lost The Contest
I love how 'accident' "accidentally" reflects off the front table to tie it all together 😆 that part is a sloppy Photoshop job. The ampersand is misaligned.
What immediately caught my eye was the fact that "ACCIDENT" wasn't flipped upside down in the 'reflection' on the table.
Load More Replies...Shouldn't "ACCIDENT" be flipped upside down in the 'reflection' on the table?
The word Accident in the reflection on the table should be flipped upside down... Therefore fake picture 🙂

Load More Replies...If the cat's leg was LOOSE, then that"s probably why it LOST it
Dr. Rousell pointed out that as surprising as hovering cars are, they might make for interesting dinner conversation, but not much more. However, surprises in regards to the beliefs a person holds about themselves can be defining and formative in their life, which means they can be used strategically to intentionally enrich someone else’s life.
One way to do it, according to the professor, is to trigger surprise by suggesting that something one considers a weakness is actually an asset: astonishing someone in such a way hijacks their attention and forces the person on the receiving end to try to make sense of the information, and consequently form a positive belief about themselves.
Well
Well, if it makes OP happy, that's the important thing, I guess.
Uhm.. I’m reading the text. What a mean mom if this is not a joke. Hoping it’s a joke. A friend of mines parents told them that the condom broke and they were not planned, and the cherry on top, they didn’t even wanna have kids. Cruel parents! They don’t talk to they’re parent anymore. I guess I don’t have to explain why.im happy they have a family and a kid now and are happy without parents in their life’s.
Half the population wouldn't be here if it weren't for accidents but you're not supposed to tell the kids that.

Load More Replies...I Can Only Imagine What It Looked Like For Them
As a kid I had a saw horse that I used to pretend was my real horse. My dad made it a head out of plywood and my mom put a mop on it for the mane. I drew eyes and other details on the face. I used to sit on it for hours and pretend to ride. My neighbors must have thought I was a weirdo. :) One of the neighbors who actually DID have horses snuck over one night and put real horse poop behind my sawhorse. In hindsight it's hilarious, but I thought it was stupid at the time. I should mention that I did go on to ride and own real horses, and was a professional equestrian for a while. ;)
I think it's actually super sweet that they put horse poop behind your horse to help keep the daydream going.

Load More Replies...When I was around 7 I wanted a horse and did all kinds of research. Planned on selling my meager toys (we didn’t have mountains of stuff back in the 70’s like kids do now), and I even knew I needed their shoes done regularly. Figured the 3/4 acre property we had in a subdivision in the country backing onto a field was enough space. We didn’t get one…
Haha Oh That Too

While the surprising pictures on this list might not make people change their personal beliefs for the better, online content in general can lift up their spirits or positively influence their well-being.
Studies suggest that as long as people are mindful about it, routine social media use—logging in to respond to content shared by others, for instance—is positively linked with one’s social well-being, positive mental health, and self-rated health.
Missing The “Eez”
I remember from the movie that Hotel Coral Essex was a lot more popular after some of the lights on its sign burned out...
I wonder if they have a schedule for which employees get to do the dunkin'?
Since the coffee at Dunkin' is about 212 (F) degrees, it should kill the bacteria and the nuts.

Question for the skirt/dress-wearing pandas: Wouldn't you, for various reasons, usually make sure that the backside of your skirt is still tucked under your booty? Let's just hope for the sake of her intimate area's health that she didn't forget her knickers...
Does she realize that there's almost nothing between her and the seat of that stool? So gross.
Ew... Imagine how her legs are sweating and sticking to that stool. Uncomfortable for her and gross for the next customer
Her a*s is straight on the barstool. Like skin touching. Have you ever seen a restaurant cleaning their barstools? Eww. Sit on your skirt, girl.
Eeww..she has her straight a*s on that bar chair? She's probably pregnant now

God, I remember getting asked out by girls in the 4th grade. I was just like, "Why? We can't do anything fun and we're definitely not gonna be together in 8 years, when we're 18." But then again, I was also gay so...
I was just thinking about this the other day… I didn’t start dating until I was 17 XD I remember some of my classmates had girlfriends/boyfriends when we were like 12ish and I just thought it was the weirdest thing. Like, ew? I don’t want to hold a boy’s hand or kiss him! XD Plus my friends were boys, so it seemed extra weird that I’d want to date one. Also, I was too busy playing video games to care about dating XD ahh, youth.

So much better when you know how it all turned out. I love that she thought "Tiger King" was going to vindicate her, when in reality, it showed America that she's a murderer.
You really believe a story about someone told by a person who went to federal prison for trying to kill that someone? Do you believe all the other people who were caught hiring hit men as well?
Load More Replies...well tbf, he does look older thar her, maybe its a case of her innocently out-living him?
Serious question: how do we get to that conclusion? I don’t have a good memory so can’t remember much from the show.

Actually happened to a British guy, I think it was back in the 70’s. Laughed so hard at a comedy skit, I think the show was called “The Goodys” or something similar. Laughed until he had a heart attack. Reportedly, his wife said she was glad he died happy!
Load More Replies...A comedian had me laughing so hard I was actually getting scared that I couldn't stop laughing. I honestly thought I was going to have to pass out from lack of oxygen in order to start breathing normally again. Dying of laughter is not as fun as you might think...

As a pregnant mother of a toddler, I get it. Those pups are a lot better behaved than those adorable feral creatures on the leashes.
Yep, responsible parents use tools to keep children, too young to understand, safe by the sea. The problem doesn't lie with the mother. It lies with the person judging.
Load More Replies...I had my daughter when my son was 17 months old. I lost him once in a crowded mall. I get this. I had always sneered at moms with kids on leashes. But guess what I bought that same day?
I was a leash toddler too, it was the only way they could limit the damage. Everything fascinated me, so I just ran off to inspect things. Combine that with no sense of danger, and that gave my mum some very early grey hairs. In the beginning I still ran off when I was on a leash, and ended up tripping people up a couple of times 🤦♀️ (Yes, I'm on the spectrum. Became a scientist, and here my relentless fascination is a bonus.)
Oh, how I used to laugh at the so-called parents using their silly kiddy leashes in the stores and such. Laughed my butt off. Until I became the mother of a toddler. Those little buggers can run!
As things should be. The doggos are way more well behaved than the kids.

I think many people don't realise, that zoo animals are looking at visitors for entertainment and misses it during lock down.
eeuh... i dont, im glad i didnt know of this {or if it was real} Cause i have a deep fear of eels, 38 year old man and I will curl up and cry if i see or go near them
I remember this. The poor eels were missing humans during the lockdowns: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjoWTDe-hOE

In the the US, we love hot wings which are chicken wings covered in a hot sauce mixed with butter. The wings are divided into two classes, the flats which are the lower part of the wing that corresponds to our forearm and the drummies or drumettes that's the upper portion. Some people are very picky and will only eat one of them. This same brand sells packs of drummies"that are just the upper portion of the wing.
I wouldn't put it past commercial farms to breed 4 legged chickens. They've already made turkeys to fat to breed. 🤣

Ah, I remember this.

Didn't one of the states recently ban furries from going to school and say that animal control would be called on them?
Load More Replies...Wasn't that the answer to a reaction a politician had about a satire article?
Pretty much. One of the talking heads heard about furries for the first time, and it was like a telephone game where their conclusions just kept getting weirder. Then it combined with the trans bathroom issues into this weird "my cousin once knew a guy who knew a guy" kind of thing. I wonder what the 2024 one will be.

Fanfic authors are unhinged. I was reading a fanfic and in the notes the author said they developed depression which magically went away. They went to forensics camp and got the highest in their class in some exam and then got cast as Zazu from the Lion King musical at their school. They got a girlfriend also during the whole thing
Author apparently took a break from the main quest to do all of the side quests.

Wait A Second…
My mam has brown hair, my dad black hair. I've got a ginger sister, a blonde sister, a black haired, and I've got brown. Ain't no mucking about, it's because genetics is a blender. My mam's mam is ginger, my mam's dad is Brown. My dad was abandoned so we don't know about his parents, but when we tracked down his siblings they were all blonde.
It's not impossible, but very unlikely that two people with blond(e) and ginger hair would have a black haired child. It's not at all unlikely that people with dark hair could have a ginger or dark haired child. So your family is not unusual, but the Incredibles would be.
Load More Replies...I kinda assumed the girl was goth and just dyed her hair black lol
Load More Replies...Hair color is not like eye color. It is determined by additive genes not on/off genes.
Why does no one realize she could be DYEING her hair?? She's certainly emo enough to be doing that. I did too when I was in high school and felt the same way.
I'm a redhead. My two brothers are redheads. My mom's a redhead. My dad is bald. Draw your own conclusions.
This is just recessive genes. It probably just means that one of the incredibles parents had a dark haired parent and that's how she got black hair.

Load More Replies...I think it's the fact that 'never' is at the bottom, and to have answered 'never' you had to have read all the options....
Reminds me of a test our teacher gave us in high school. 50 questions/tasks. First was to write your name top left. Second was to write the date top right. Then a bunch of questions/problems…..but if you read down #50 said “Just do 1 & 2, turn your paper over and leave”. Whole class looked at me weird when I walked out after thirty seconds. Teacher just smiled and winked. Always read the questions first!
I remember this. We were supposed to sit still and wait when we'd finished. I got caught out.
Load More Replies...Where did the k come from? It has to be 1719 not 1719k if only 3344 voted…
It's a decimal, not a comma, which is not only confusing for anyone outside of the US, but also caused by "k" being unnecessary due to them selecting certain options when creating the poll.

From reddit: Not BS. But they only receive a degree if they're in the burning building. Some of them will get first degree, some will get second degree, and some will get third degree....we are talking about burns right? Because obviously you're not going to get a PHD or even pass the class.
And if your roommate dies you get straight A's. /s That was the rumor when I was in college. Not gonna lie - I thought about it a few times. :)
They made a movie about that called "Dead Man on Campus"
Load More Replies...Related: When Penn State got the "death penalty" and some U of Alabama fanboy shut down the U of Alabama-Birmingham football program (so Alabama wouldn't have competition), the current players were allowed, if they wanted, to keep their scholarships and study without playing. I wonder how many were harassed into leaving, or when UAB's football program restarted, were told, "play or lose your ride".
Friend was given an honorary engineering degree because he died before he graduated (senior student).
Bummer for the people who were working on their Master's or their Doctorate...

Eww. Plus, he’s taking a huge chance her hormones that day won’t make her do a roundhouse and punch his lights out for touching her when her entire body hurts I’m postmenopausal now, but back in the day, if my SO tried to squeeze me on any of the first two or three days of my period, he would quickly be trained not to even look like he’d try it). This guy should just get her some Midol, chocolate, and a heating pad, plus whatever else she likes, then simply leave her TF alone. Unless he’s summoned, of course.
That's actually cute. At least in my opinion. Normally it's the guy complaining how "gross" it is 🙂
My boyfriend legit calls me his little ketchup bottle when I'm on my period 😆 I hate it so much but it's also adorable

You can tell who hasn't suffered from depression but the reactions to this meme.
Rinsing out red hair dye can look like something was butchered in the bathtub
Didn't know was considered a level of depression. I drink wine with ice in the bath and listen to an audiobook to relax 😂🍷🛀
Oh, Ummm
Just keep trying. Human imagination is boundless.

My boss once spewed cake into a coworkers mouth. Someone made a joke that was so funny, he couldn't hold it in and burst out in laughter. My coworker happened to just open his mouth at the same time and some of the boss' cake flew into his mouth.

Can't believe I had to go this far in the comments for this! For all y'all youngins, this was a major meme from Vine back in 2013 that spawned a ton of spinoffs. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/9-10-21

Look At It Properly
It's a mirror I think and the legs belong to the woman in black? I think that's what's happening
The part under the table is a mirror. The part above the table is open space, there is no separation between the two women except for under the table.
There's an extra hand, beneath the table on the girl facing the camera
