We can guarantee that you texted the wrong number at least once in your lifetime. Most of the time, you probably won't get a response. Other times, the person on the other end will text you a simple "wrong number" and move on with their lives. But sometimes, on the other side of the screen, there will be someone hilarious and quick on their feet, and they will respond in the most unexpected, ingenious way. For the most hysterical wrong number texts that ever happened, read on!
Sending Love To The Troops Who Send Love Back
This girl squad must have tried to send this group selfie to another friend of theirs. The selfie went to the wrong number, and this unassuming group of soldiers took the opportunity to send back a selfie of their own. It is a pretty accurate reenactment of the womens' poses, which shows these brave men might have too much spare time on their hands. Just kidding, everyone deserves some time off!
The women and the soldiers both probably got a good laugh out of this, as did pretty much everyone who saw this funny correspondence. Good job, boys, and thank you for your service!
When In Doubt, Pull a Nicholas Cage
When someone pulls out a Nicholas Cage meme for any reason, you know it's well deserved and downright hilarious. They always are! All Nicholas Cage memes are golden, and this one does not disappoint. It's definitely what we'd expect to see in response to someone texting the wrong number. In fact, we might do this ourselves the next time we get a similar text. This gets a score of A+.
Nicholas Cage, if you're reading this then please never stop acting, and never stop entertaining us. You are an inspiration. We do wonder, though, what picture the sender here was really expecting to see. It couldn't have been better than this!
Love Is Not In The Air For This Guy
Girls and guys have given fake numbers many times to suitors throughout history. It is usually to be polite and not to hurt the other person's feelings. Sadly, this man learned he was given a fake number the hard way. He sent out an invitation to a girl he just met along with a shirtless selfie. The response is pure gold, as the man on the other side answered back with another shirtless selfie of his own.
A word of advice, if you are giving out a fake number, make it of a restaurant, so at least they can order food and forget about the whole ordeal. It's cruelty mixed with a bit of kindness.
That's What Happens When You Send A Shirtless Selfie
Another shirtless selfie met with another shirtless selfie. This is what happens when someone begins a conversation with a shirtless selfie. The girl he hit on wasn't interested and probably felt immediately this wasn't going anywhere, and what can we say, her instincts were right. The guy is probably a player and isn't serious about getting to know her, judging by this correspondence. Luckily, the recipient of this shirtless selfie was in a good mood that day!
Why is this message on FWD, we wonder? How many times has this picture been sent out to people? That fact on its own makes this guy a little harder to like.
Who Is This? WHO Is This? WHO IS THIS?
This person might want to go back to school and learn what the difference is between a cat and a dog. It is an amusing correspondence, but we have to ask, how can you not tell it's a dog? Multiple pictures of the dog were sent, from different angles, yet they still couldn't tell this is a canine and not a feline. Even if this dog is smaller than a cat, it's still a dog.
Obviously, it's a dog. How can anyone make that mistake? If we send them a video of the dog barking, would that help them understand it's a dog? Either way, this will make you laugh, and that's what's important.
This Is Definitely Not Jessica's Phone Number
By the looks of things, Jessica wasn't really into the person who wanted her number and gave them the wrong one. This person learned they were tricked, but they may have earned a new friend in the process. Or maybe not, we're not sure. What's for certain, though, is that he does not look like a Jessica, and his facial expression tells us he is dead serious about it.
Jessica and her antics. Did she give his number to anyone else? Perhaps he's her brother, or maybe even her boyfriend!
Tell JD It Just Ain't Happening
JD is a simple man who wanted to get a little love from someone he met earlier after he asked for their number. As we learned already, sending images as a conversation starter rarely leads to anything positive. This is no exception, and JD did not get the response he was hoping for. Oh, JD, when will you learn that sending someone a selfie instead of a simple hello never ends well.
We admire the person on the other side for sending JD what seems to be what he was after, but from the opposite sex. Maybe that will be enough for JD. We hope it does. JD, next time, be a little more courteous.
Hello! This Is Dog! Who Dis?
The dog answering the phone meme became popular back in its day and really racked up a following, who would easily recognize it today. Somehow, Maria didn't get the memo as she doesn't know who the famous dog is. We recommend Maria should stay at home and avoid sending new texts to anyone until she learns her memes. Missing out on a good joke like this should be considered a crime.
Regardless, we secretly wish dogs could pick up the phone and talk to us. We would love to have a conversation with them over the phone.
The Fellowship Of The Long Robes
If out of the blue, someone sends you an image of a man sitting in his robe as the first means of contact, how much energy do you spend on finding the most clever way to answer? However, both men look regal with their blue-striped attire, ready to take the throne in their respective palace. Our guess is someone wanted to send this to a family member. Maybe it's a picture of their relative they haven't seen in a very long time?
Even for us, it is strange to get a text of a man in a robe, idly sitting on the couch. Honestly, we wouldn't know how to respond to that.
We're All Going To Visit The Wizard Of Oz
Dorothy, with a name like yours, we really can't see this play out any other way. Whoever this responder may be, they get a medal for seizing this silly opportunity. Anytime you get the chance to troll a Dorothy, The Wizard Of Oz reference is mandatory. They nailed it with an image of Dorothy smiling with her best friends, the Tin-Man and the Cowardly Lion. What a night that must have been!
We have to thank everyone who's involved here. Dorothy, thank you for your existence, we thank your parents for your name, and obviously, we thank the clever troll. We are off to see the wizard!
Ashley Missed Out On All This Love
We all want to find true love. We want to find someone who is infatuated with us, and who will unconditionally love us. Ashley could have had that if she had just given this person her number, but as we can clearly see, she missed out on this romance. Thankfully, the responder knows the value of love, and they wanted it for themselves. We love their good-natured reply here.
The responder knows their worth, and damn, they are right. They are worth it. That Anchorman picture is definitely worthy of anyone's love and affection.
Tina's Wild Ride And Her Many Cats
This text exchange involves many twists and turns. A guy wanted to get to know Tina in an intimate way, but Tina had other plans that didn't include him. Instead, she gave him a number that belonged to a random man and his many cats, and they admitted they are not Tina and that he was given the wrong number. Then the responder made another plot twist when they revealed they were, in fact, really Tina!
You would think the text exchange would end with a marvelous friendship between a lonely guy and a troll, but we want to believe there was another twist waiting ahead. There was never a Tina, to begin with.
Sorry Sir! I Didn't Mean To!
What could this man possibly want? That first message is so cryptic. We will probably never know because the responder decided this was the moment to reveal their true identity. He's a bearded man with a great mustache! Surely, the conversation went in a completely different direction than the sender expected, as they surprisingly apologized. We don't think we have ever seen an apology in any of these wrong message threads, so that's pretty special.
This is a refreshing change, we must admit. The apology does earn the sender some extra brownie points. Maybe they should have gotten the real number in the first place!
Viva Fiesta: A 25 Years Before And After
This text exchange has positivity and good vibes written all over it. The original message came from either a group of friends or a family, we don't know, but they look happy and festive in their cowboy attire. They sent out this adorable selfie to strangers by accident, and the response is really great. A young group of buddies recreated the photo, though they chose a slightly more revealing look. They did their best to replace the cowboy hats, too!
This kind of looks like a before and after picture, with 25 years in between. It looks like both groups live by the moto, Viva Fiesta!
Making An Appointment For A Haircut With A Weirdo
In today's world, you must look sharp and have a nice and clean haircut. Jeff, our sender, tried to make an appointment with Mary,who we assume is a hairdresser, to cut his hair. Sadly for him, the number he texted was the wrong one. Thanks to the responder's ability to think quickly and add a dash of humor, they sent back a few options for hairstyles we have yet to see in real life. Styles we hopefully never see in real life.
We admit that meeting a person with one of these haircuts makes for an interesting story. No one would ever believe us. Can You imagine such a thing?
Stop Tricking Tajlea, Rachyl! Just Quit It!
Someone should help Tajlea. Come on, Tajlea. You got the wrong number. The person you are talking to is not Rachyl. If someone says you have the wrong number, you should trust them. Please, Tajlea, compose yourself and learn how the world works. We also noticed a repetitive behavior with Tajlea, as if getting an answer once isn't enough for them. Rachyl, we think we understand why you gave Tajlea the wrong number.
The responder answered the best way they could to this random text from Tajlea. They executed our favorite meme of the girl who is just as confused as we are just right.
Anthony From Bread Co. Is Short On Staff
Looks like Anthony is having a pretty rough shift at Bread Co. Already short-staffed, as his urgent texts tell us, he also had to deal with a troll who used the opportunity to mess with him. Some people want to watch the world burn, and this responder is most likely one of them. We have to admit, the troll really pulled out all the stops when they sent a picture of themselves in this pose.
One leg in the sink, a pink Hannah Montana purse in tow, and shades to cover their eyes from the world. This troll has a twisted sense of humor. We like it!
Congratulations On Graduating From All Of Us!
These cool strangers didn't wait one second when they got this random text from what seems to be a stranger on their graduation day. We guess they felt that it was crucial to inform them they were at the zoo, too. It just seemed appropriate? It would be rude if the student who is recently out of school, didn't congratulate them back for being in the zoo. This feels like a celebratory situation for everyone! Congrats to you, and you and you! To everyone!
Thumbs up on this wholesome text exchange. Being kind to strangers is always nice, and this might be the young graduate's last lesson for the day. Lead with kindness.
Robin Just Wanted To Ask Ricky Something, But Batman Wouldn't Have It
Some people in this world know exactly how to live, and they do it spectacularly. Take our next wrong number who texted a person named Robin back with style. They brought this meme of Batman slapping Robin back to life, and it fits perfectly/ They chose this method to tell Robin they texted the wrong number. Certain people are born with some a sick meme game, like this person.
We wish we would be this quick with our memes and references. This was a great use of the crime-fighting duo, but Batman was never good enough for Robin, in our opinion.
Tony Is Not Smiling After Learning The Truth
Tony, you look like a really nice guy! We guess it wasn't meant to be since the person you hit on gave you a fake phone number. You even texted them and kind of introduced yourself like a normal human being. Unfortunately, they will never get any message from you because, as we know, you've been played. At least the person on the other side of the screen seems to be another nice person and not a total jerk.
Keep on smiling guys, you'll get through this. The world does not end with one wrong number. Better luck next time, and may the odds be ever in your favor!
Could These Couples Make It Work?
This might be the beginning of not one but two love stories. These girls texted a selfie to the wrong number, but has fate intervened to make sure the selfie reaches the right number after all? The wrong number turned out to be two guys, and we can't help but feel this is meant to be. Two single girls plus two single guys equal two beautiful relationships. They look perfect for each other.
If we find out we are right and these two couples fell in love, we want an invitation to the wedding. If they did, we wish them a lifetime of happiness and love.
Grab On Guys, These Guys Mean Business
Woah! What on Earth are we seeing here? Let's make a proper analysis of the situation. We have our sender, who chose not to use words (like a normal human being), and instead, they've sent the wrong number this image of them getting groped by another friend from behind. To make these texts weirder, the responders answered with their own version of what they saw and sent a reenactment of the image.
People do have a lot of time on their hands, do they? Sending these types of messages back and forth between them. As long as it stays humorous, who are we to complain?
Happy Easter Everyone! You Too, Naked Guy!
This woman probably didn't expect to get this text from the wrong number she texted to. We would be caught off guard seeing this all of a sudden, a man in his undies and a helmet with horns wishing us a happy Easter! That doesn't mean we would stop chatting with them. Hey, we can recognize a fine man when we see one. This could be an opportunity to start a tradition of sending happy greetings throughout the year.
Happy Hanukah, Merry Christmas, labor day, 4th of July, anything we can think of, this man would be getting a greeting from us, we would make sure of it. We expect to get an answer back every time, in their undies.
This Player Just Got Michael Cera'd
Don't expect to get anything other than a picture of actor Michael Cera. If you say to someone they are the most beautiful woman you have ever laid your eyes on, then request their nudes, you deserve to get Michael Cera. Probably, this sender was just like in these texts when he asked for the number, and the woman he was hitting on knew it too well. At least he got Michael Cera. It could have been a lot worse for him. He could have got nudes he didn't want to get.
Michael Cera is a fine actor who should get more credit and appreciation than what we give him today. We have loved him since the first time we saw him in the film Juno.
Bailey Will Not Be Going To Princess Camp
Princess camp was not in the cards for Bailey this year. This parent thought they were informing the camp's representative, Tesha, about their decision to enroll their daughter (or son) in a different activity. The person that actually got the text couldn't have been furthest than a princess (even though anyone could be if they wanted to), and they got this prince instead. We hope Bailey gets the summer of their dreams either way.
If we are on the subject, being a princess has nothing to do with who you are on the outside, it is about how you carry yourself in the world and what you represent. We learned that in princess camp.
Buzz Light Year Text Exchange Fiasco
Buzz light year is a toy we all love and adore that came into our lives in the first Toy Story movie. However, the term buzzed up means something different. When this sender asked someone if they are buzzed up, they got the other buzz. With good spirits and a sense of humor, the sender realized their error and figured they texted the wrong number, allowing Buzz to continue protecting the galaxy from threats.
Buzz, it's time you go on and fight Zurg, the evil emperor, and remember, don't fly and text! Or don't get buzzed up and get behind the wheel. That's bad too.
Wrong Text Or Not, Devon Wants Cheesecake
This interaction between someone offering cheesecake and a man named Devon showed us what being a human really is about. It is about getting cheesecake whenever you can because who doesn't want cheesecake? It's airy, fluffy, and it tastes like a slice of heaven. Sometimes, cheesecakes come with a sweet and tangy strawberry sauce, sometimes it arrives with a dark chocolate drizzle, and if you're lucky, you can get both.
All this texting about cheesecakes has made us hungry for cake. We believe you know what cake we are talking about. Someone, please send us a cheesecake. As soon as possible.
The Next Step Of Texting The Wrong Number
This one is a new one we haven't thought of before. Texting the wrong number can be bad enough on its own, but face-timing the wrong number? is some next-level chaos. This student, during his band practice, answered a face time call from an unknown number and was greeted by this equally confused man. Could this be the beginning of a friendship or is this the start of humanity's descent into madness?
Both are acceptable outcomes, but we hope a friendship did blossom out of this amusing situation. There is a famous saying (which we made up just now) that meeting your best friend always happens unexpectedly
Do Not Let This Person Go! Freeze Him!
Yoohoo! We guess Baby didn't get the text. This wrong number situation was handled properly when the responder answered back with an image of Oaken, the guy who runs the sauna and clothing shop in the film Frozen. His signature phrase is him yelling "YOOHOO" before disappearing somewhere in the shop. Maybe the person who sent the text was Hans, and he meant to send it to Anna, and she might have sent back the picture of Oaken.
We might be a little obsessed with Frozen. We've watched it about a hundred times, and it doesn't get old. Some might say we can't let it go.
When a Wrong Number Ends in a Beautiful Love Story?
What don't you do for love? This man sent a declaration of love and a selfie of himself wearing a red hat to the wrong number. But is it the wrong number? The person who texted back is another man who decided to wear a towel over his head, like the first man, and guess what? They declared their love too. Why is this making us so emotional? We're getting teary from all this love.
Love wins. When you least expect it to, love finds a way to conquer. These two guys might have never met face-to-face (and probably will never meet at all), but the love they share is real.
A Hit and Miss For This Guy
Guys! Why continue to send a picture of yourselves first and not start with a friendly hello? Is it that hard for you to write down five letters? Come on, you got to put in the effort and not just send a random pic of you standing next to your front door. Nothing about this is attractive, and it really makes you look like a creep. Thank god for the person who responded with the same method and cropped his head onto the sender's body.
Doesn't feel so good to get a random picture of a guy standing next to his front door, is it now? Remember this feeling when you want to start a conversation with anyone.
Look At Your Father! Look At Him!
This father is going places with his unique choices in life. He might be going through a mid-life crisis, but we totally support him and his shenanigans. Why not? So you want to buy a hunting rifle and that hat? It's your money to spend, our friend. This man is going full dad mode, as he is going a bit overboard with his purchases. When they set their mind to something, it is virtually impossible to stop them from doing it.
Dads will always be dads, and they are men with a weird sense of humor. We can always count on them being there, even if it's with a rifle and that hat.
Sending A Shower Selfie to Strangers Is Not The Best Idea
This text exchange takes place in the shower room. A young woman sent the wrong number a selfie of herself, standing in front of a fogged-up mirror, wet after a shower and in a towel. She added she was getting ready. Soon she realized her error and that she sent those texts to the wrong person. We got to admit, there are not a lot of options to answer back without making anyone uncomfortable.
This man proved us wrong. He did the only thing he could think of and sent back a selfie of him, standing in front of a fogged-up mirror, wet after a shower and in a towel too.
That's Probably Not Corey
Texting the wrong number can be fun sometimes. Our next texter simply asked for Corey. They didn't expect to get Corey Baxter, a supporting character on That's So Raven, before getting his own spin-off show, Corey In The House. This throwback is giving us early 2000s vibes, and we thank the person who responded with Corey's pics. Corey was a devious little kid, a lot like the person who answered back.
Unfortunately, Corey In The House survived for just two seasons on the Disney Channel. We are still a bit salty about it, but at least we can look back at these pics and remember the good times.
What's Up Homie, Not Much Apparently
These guys wanted to check up on their homie and texted "what's up, homie" to the wrong number. Their homie might not get the text, but these people proved they are just as fun to talk to. A man doing the peace sign, like one of the men who sent the first text, and a smiling woman. They even added that not much is up with them, then they notified the guys they had the wrong number.
Lol. These wrong number texts are hysterical to us because you just don't know what you're getting. It might be your homie, and it might be a cute couple from Florida.
The Dangers Of Sending An Artist The Wrong Text
This guy got what he was putting out. We said, time and time again, never start a conversation with a picture. If this guy doesn't learn his lesson after this brilliant and educating encounter with this artist, nothing will help him. To the artist, we bow down to your creativity, and we are embracing this method for future situations. This is a great way to deal with unwanted guys sending pictures on the first text.
We especially love the last image with the side bangs and make-up. The emo makeover looks surprisingly well, and we imagine the guy brooding all night over his image being altered like this.
Why Does Breaking Bad Remind Him Of Angela?
How does watching Breaking Bad remind someone of anyone? Is it because they are a science teacher? Were they dealing meth like Walter White? Whoever sent this text needs to do a little bit of explaining. Anyway, the person who answered back might not have been Angela, but they don't have a problem pretending to be her. Seems like a win-win situation. Who could have expected this man to actually get Angela?
It might not be the right angela, but it could be Angela if they wanted to. Also, sending the pic of Walter is brilliant. It's a perfect addition to the texts exchanged between them.
The Sweet Little Angel Who Didn't Want 14 14 18 18
14 14 18 18 is a hair bundle you can purchase for a thicker and luscious appearance for your head. This sweet young man doesn't need it or wants it. Look at him! He is precious and must be protected at all costs, and do not let a single hair fall of his head. Taylor, the sender of the text, took it in good spirits and laughed at the situation as we did. That picture of that boy is cracking us up, and we think it belongs in a museum.
It's a cultural reset moment for society to see this little guy, and we can't take away our eyes of this angel and the innocence he possesses. Take him to church ASAP, and sing hallelujah.
That Wig Looks Flawless On You! Don't Listen To Haters!
Finally! Someone has shown us the only exception to sending a selfie first before writing a text. This woman is wearing a wig she thought was given to her by the owner of the number she texted. She wanted to share with them how beautiful she looks! And she does! That wig is doing a lot of good things for her! This is how you do it! To the responder, you are just jealous you don't have that wig and probably feeling bitter about it.
Their text exchange ended with everyone doing good, no hurt feelings, and moving on with their lives, as they should, as should we. Until next time! Don't forget to always start with a HELLO!
