Social media can be used for many good reasons, but lying isn’t one of them. Unfortunately, a surprisingly high number of posts on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram have little truth to them. While most of these lies go unnoticed, some are just too obvious to ignore. The following people posted lies of epic proportions on social media and each one got called out.
You Just Crossed the Feline
When you are trying to sell something on social media, it’s highly recommended to make sure that the photo doesn’t contradict anything you mention in the description. Sure, this couch looks slightly used. And yes, it is soft and grey.
However, when you start claiming that no pets have been on this piece of furniture and yet there is a cat literally hiding behind that very same couch, you know that it’s probably best to look elsewhere.
What the Fox?
Celebrities have the right to discuss whatever they please on talk shows as long as they agree with the host and producers beforehand. This also applies vice versa. Hosts usually make sure to check with the celebrity about any sensitive topics they might want to bring up prior to the interview.
So when the Huffington Post posted this tweet about Megan Fox, Jimmy Kimmel was quick to shut them down and he wasn’t afraid to drop an emphatic expletive!
New World Record!
Rob seemed to be pretty relaxed after “realizing” that he had run five kilometers in just 10 minutes. It sounds like it was just a normal run and something that he could easily do again. Thankfully, Cal showed up to remind Rob that the world record for the 5k is 12 minutes.
Honestly, we are more surprised that Rob didn’t reply to Cal by saying the following: “Well if that’s the case, I’m going to have to submit this to the Guinness World Records!”
So Shady
This guy must have felt pretty embarrassed after advertising this apparently “brand new” pair of sunglasses that had never been worn before. Apparently, though, he wasn’t that excited to let them go after all, seeing that he was actually wearing them in his profile picture.
The problem was that he was careless with his lie! Word of advice to people trying to sell stuff on social media: make sure you dot all of your I’s and cross all of your T’s.
Did She Trip On Her Phone?
It’s impossible to believe that this young lady “didn’t mean to post” a selfie of herself. Her pose for the camera is unquestionable and she still hasn’t deleted it! To be fair, the person who commented has a really good point.
It takes a number of careful steps to post a photo on one of your social media accounts. The only excuse she has is that maybe she did it subconsciously, and that is disturbing.
