Behold, my 100% fabricated AITA post. Did you ever do this? What ridiculous scenario did you invent? And why? And were you TA?
I made a throwaway account and came up with this load of bullshit because I was wired and bored after everyone else left or crashed out after a house party.
AITA, TIFU, and all those other "confession" subreddits were all creative writing subreddits anyways. It would be more shocking to find out one of the top upvoted posts there was actually real.
Because they added a rule that you weren't allowed to question the validity of posts. According to the mods it was more fun if you took the stories at face value, which meant that every post read like OP replaying the scenario in their head while showering and thinking about what they wish they said.
I once found my brother-in-law on Reddit because he posted a picture I recognized. I went to his post history to check if it was actually him and it was but he had posted a completely fake story to r/legaladvice. It was something about his landlord removing the door to the apartment to try and get rent or something. But my bil lived in a house he owned. It also wasn’t an old story he was repurposing either because I have known him since he moved out of his parents house. I never mentioned it or anything because I don’t care.
