Something unexpected that made you go "wtf??"

[FuckingFabulous]

I want to hear examples from your experiences. Like when someone drops the facade for a second and you see something a bit scary about them, or when someone reasonable comes out with something utterly ludicrous and you've no idea how to react. I want to hear them! Because earlier today, I found out that my neighbours daughter doesn't have identical twins called Ronnie and Jensen, which was my assumption. She has one boy called Jensen, but my neighbour hates the name and will only call him Ronnie. The boy is six. His middle name isn't even Ronnie. His grandma just prefers that name and calls him that.

Not my Wtf moment, but someone I know who works in pest control.

He was called to a supermarket as they had been hearing something scrabbling around above the false ceiling and thought it was rats. The store was open, and he set up his ladder and poked his head into the ceiling shining his torch into the darkness, looking for droppings or other signs of rats.

Suddenly he hears scrabbling and something large moving about. And out of the gloom comes a cat. Not just any cat, though - HIS cat!

He lived just over the road, so grabbed the cat by the scruff and hustled back home to shut it in - as he left he could hear panicked customers exclaiming 'where's that rentokil man going with that cat?!'

Love this!😂🤣😂

At a smallish European airport, on the transit bus from the terminal to the plane, the display screen in the ceiling was showing the route and stops for a normal domestic bus service.
That would have been fairly odd, but the real wtf bit was that it was a bus route I regularly travelled on at home in the UK.

I recently visited my mum in another US state...for some odd reason everywhere I visited the batteries were running out of power whilst I was there! 3 smoke detectors, clocks, a car with a brand new battery...I feel like an alien who is draining energy for myself like in the movie.."Close Encounters of the Third Kind:"

Oh, I have a new one this morning!! Phone relentlessly chiming with Facebook messenger tone at 6am. Woke me up. Switched phone to silent, thinking anyone who would need to contact me in an emergency would call me. But I couldn't get back to sleep so I decided to very grumpily look at who fucked up my morning.

I sold a large piece of flat pack furniture on Facebook marketplace THIRTEEN MONTHS AGO, and the person who bought it has messaged me asking if he can have all my original pictures of the item that I used to sell it with. Followed by -

What the fuck is wrong with people?!?

I havent read this thread yet, so if this doesn't suit, then I apologise.

I was having investigations and such done before I was diagnosed with vulvodynia, which also included a really fun trans-vaginal.
Anyway, go back to my GP a little while later for the results. She printed the paper out and literally said out loud "what the fuck?" Apparently, I have evidence of an c-section in my uterus.
I've never been pregnant. It also hasn't come up on any other ultrasound reports so no idea what they were seeing 🤔

Anyone else been blindsided by the price of cushions? Two bits of material and a bit of padding and "Thank you. That will be £50."

Going outside to my vehicle to notice there's no number plate at the front 🤔

A few months ago. I was looking out the window when a lady on a horse passed by. She was TEXTING! Completely blew my mind 🤯

I never imagined people text whilst riding a horse 😆 it was a complete wtf moment for me.

It is a busy main road too

Very late to the party but me and dh were in John Lewis and he spied a comfy computer chair and it was a grand!

We still shout out "a grand for a chair!"

Ten minutes after my DH died my sister sat me down, knelt beside me, stared into my eyes and told me he had died because I had put it out to the universe.

My dad bought his own (cardboard) coffin a few years back
It’s stored in his attic
I’ve had a few wtf?looks over that one!

When I was a kid I was brought up by my grandad
When I was 14 he died
Anyway,my uncle (his son) used to open up and show his garden off to raise money for charity
I hadn’t seen him since I was a kid myself but my mother summoned me to join in and bring the kids so she could show them off/him to meet his great niece and nephews
I’m standing there,holding my year old son when I heard ‘hello stinky,how are you?’
I turned to see who was speaking to me and to my utter shock,my grandad was standing there
I dropped my son and screamed (son was ok-just a bit shocked by suddenly being dropped)
Once I’d calmed down a bit,i had to go say sorry to my uncle-i got into trouble for scaring the poor man!

Honest to god that was the most wtf moment I’ve ever had-they looked like twins!

@Stinkyslippers I had something like this when my Dad died: mourners were gathering at his flat before going to the funeral. The doorbell rang, I opened the door, saw my Dad standing there. Just in time (before fainting) I noticed he had brown eyes when my Dad's were blue. It was Dad's brother who I hadn't seen since I was little. The double of my Dad except for eye colour. He even dressed in the same style!
Almost had to bury two people that day!

@kipperhips wtf?!

@Pudmyboy Thankfully, I haven't clapped eyes on her since his funeral. I thought for a while I had imagined it due to the fog I was in.

@Stinkyslippers and @Pudmyboy
A few years after my Dad had died, my brother got married. It happened that my Aunt from overseas was visiting her sister at this time, so these 2 sisters of my Dad came to the wedding which in turn encouraged their elderly remaining brother to come along as well.
I was stunned to see my uncle after so many years and to be reminded of my Dad. Everything about my uncle was my Dad reincarnated, the tilt of his head, features of his face, accent - it was all there. You know when people wish to spend a final day with a loved one, well this was exactly how this felt.

@Lovethesun100 that's beautiful! I'm glad you got to have that day!

I wish someone had reminded me before my grandmother's funeral that her youngest sister was almost identical to my nan. Like all the posters above, I got quite a shock!

Three:

We were driving along and saw MIL’s old card 20 years after she sold it. Weirdly enough, we’d only just been talking about it about 15 mins previously as she and DH bought identical cars with consecutive number plates when he was 20.

Our ex-neighbour was building a conservatory and informed us that once he took down the party wall, he would be removing our expensive patio and installing a soak away. We said absolutely not. The day before we moved, we came out to find him chopping up our patio with an angle grinder!! When challenged, he used the following insults (amongst others) “bellend” “fat” “knob” “territorial” of our own land and then accused us of making him and his missus feel like criminals when all they were trying to do was improve their home. BY MAKING OUR HOME SMALLER!!

I saw a man in a motorised wheelchair with a chicken on his head and lap. He was famous in our area.

Saw a pretty and well put together teenage girl in her school uniform. All except the low hanging trousers like you see in rap videos. It was literally under her bottom and she had on boy boxers.
Confidently walking with other girls laughing with no care in the world. Admired her confidence but made me wtf for a moment.

@BalloonsAndWhistles are you in south Bristol perchance?

Must be a place beginning with B
