27 Hilariously Unhinged Texts And Group Chats Where I Would Definitely Be Hitting The "Haha" React Button

God forbid you make a typo in the group chat.

Texting is a blessing and a curse in today's world — it's nice to just be a few buttons away from my family and friends, but I can also feel like I'm a little *too* reachable. Still...there's nothing like looking down to check your phone and seeing the silliest text from a friend or the spiciest homemade memes being cooked up in your group chat.

Here are 23 of my fave texts that people on the interwebs have gotten that'll convince you texting is actually our greatest invention.

1. I think the kids are going to be alright.

A child tells their mother they threw up in the toilet, the mother is concerned, and the child sends a picture of a DVD of the movie Up in the toilet

2. Even if they have to explain their sense of humor to their parents sometimes.

A parent asks what "mood af" means, the child says "mood as fuck," and the parent asks "why did you comment that under a video of a gorilla throwing his own shit?"

3. Looks like there was a *slight* misunderstanding here.

A person's dad says someone transitioned today, the person congratulates them, then the person's sister clarifies that their dad means the person died

4. And here.

A grandma asks why her grandchild is talking about not having nut in November and that she needs to know if her grandchild has developed a nut allergy

5. Aaaaand here.

Someone asks if their friend has had a cereal bar, the friend says yes, and the first person asks how they work with a picture of a cereal bar submerged in a bowl of milk

6. And here, lol.

Someone asks "Is you good?" the second person says "not really, things have been hard lately," and the first person says "Oh, I meant the show"

7. I didn't even need to look at this person's handle to know this happened in New York.

A long text chain with friends discussing getting a shared cat named Fat Bastard in order to solve a mouse problem

8. Does finding this funny mean I have a dark sense of humor? Oh well.

A person asks their spouse to get a card on their way home because their coworker's mom died, the spouse sends a photo of a card with a dog wearing a sombrero saying "adios," and the first person says "what the fuck is wrong with you?"

9. Texting: the perfect place for dad jokes.

A dad says he walked through a dangerous neighborhood and met a pot head, their child reacts with concern, and the dad sends a picture of a wooden figure on someone's porch that has a pot on its head

10. Parents really are the best texters.

A mother texts their child asking what young people call cum, the child says "nut," and the mother says "like nutting on you, I'm gonna nut?"

11. I'm honestly impressed with this dad for knowing the celebs and the lingo.

A dad sends a TikTok screenshot of someone with their hand over Harry Styles' butt on a red carpet, and the dad says "your boy getting manhandled, it's giving scandal"

12. Though others are a *bit* clueless.
