Just got one going on now.
An extended family group chat that was 99% baby photos until one person posted photos of their kids at a protest this weekend and then the chuddy trad-wife sov-cits in the family threw a fit.
They all left the chat and said they'll only be reachable on Facebook.
Oh darn. All the shucks.
Now that is what i call an efficient way to filter out the trash from your group chat.
I came here for people's group chat incidents
What I actually got is a flame war against vegans and a flame war against non vegans and they both hate vegetarians
Please reply with your group chat incidents
Got drunk and sent a picture of my dick wrapped in a fur blanket with a face drawn on it and the caption "winter is cumming"
Was pretty funny all in all, was an incredibly rowdy group chat
The only incidents we have is my mother's husband keeps making new group chats. All the same people, somehow new groups.
All the same content though, just us sharing cat photos.
Rich high school friend shared a newspaper clipping with us (in the high school group) in which he was featured. Apparently he had a car accident with a girl in the seat next to him, and had suffered mentally for it over the guilt of crippling the girl. The initial reaction of the group was "ohh, so sorry you had to go through that".
Later, once it sunk in that a) why was this featured in the newspaper at all, and b) his family is very rich, I think we all came to the understanding that he had basically crippled a girl with his reckless driving, could not fix the problem with money, and so in order to help mitigate against a future court case or to discredit the girl, his family paid for a sob piece in the press.
He was your typical rich kid: fast car, no consequences, if someone comes up with a joke he will steal it and claim it as his own. Shit eating grin, until you have nothing you can offer him so he goes and talks to someone else.
Seems considerate? "We didn't want to annoy you with photos of something you despise so we created a separate channel to do just that but nothing else."
Holly seeing the comments on this post is crazy and some people would do good to touch some grass.
I was hoping to read a collection of people's group chat incidents. This sucks.
Yep. Yet another useless flame war over dietary preferences while missing the original joke.
I would not be surprised if my old coworker-friends started a separate group chat without me after the nth, "Maybe you should come to one of these protests" and "Please at least read the wikipedia summary on this historical topic before you start going off about it" message from me.
They're fine people but they're also kind of very... apolitical.
aaand that's why I'm in no group chat. Not even in the family group chat. They kept adding me and I kept leaving immediately. Everybody got angry with me. A couple of months ago something hapened and the grouo is over. I don't know what happened because I was not there. Nobody is angry with me and I'm not angry with anyone. say NO to group chats
Ahhh the WhatsApp Paradox
For every chat group you're in, there is a separate group that exists without you in it
That's not a paradox, that's the group chat power set theorem
Honestly that seems pretty thoughtful of them. Most people I know would give zero shits and just post all that on a chat with vegans and vegetarians. Some of them going out of their way to post them on that chat specifically.
My friend had someone in our discord, he was the only one who was on in the video chat, the dude popped in and said, "you wanna see a murder"
"No?"
Then he just vigorously started cutting himself with a knife. He was ultimately kicked out because of his drug problem
That's the least problematic result. "We all love meaty food and we know you don't so we didn't invite you to the Delicious Meat Showcase.'
I use to BFF with someone. I heleped them secure a new position. For my help, I was brought on as a consultant. I did a fantastic job as a consultant. I was everyone's buddy and everyone loved me.
I was part of high level meetings and decisions.
Then I found out some of my so called "friends" had a secret Signal chat. They even invited some random person! I cried for days.
<3
Tap for spoiler
Hoping you were too important and they didn’t want you seeing embarrassing things and losing your respect etc. cuz you sound important!!
Thanks kind internet stranger. To be told, I was making fun of Ol' Elon Musky and the meme of him being sad, with the words "You guys have a group chat?". Which came out shortly after the Signal Group chat with the journalist.
Ohhhhh over mah head
Incidents in my groupchats usually end up with somebody arrested tbh...
You can't just say that and drop the mic! Tell us what happened!
Gone vegetarian 5 years ago just before the pandemic hit. I've never had any real issues so far and my friend group has mostly switched to vegetarian meals when I'm present. Not because anyone forced them, but because it's a lot easier and there's so much awesome vegetarian food nowadays.
And when we barbecue, everyone brings their own stuff anyway. So that's a non issue as well (I don't care about cross contamination at all)
I don't think I could go full vegan, but in all honesty, I save enough money from not buying meat that I can buy all of my milk and cheese organic and that got rid of pretty much every last one of my moral qualms.

Queue militant vegans telling me how awful even organic dairy is in 3, 2, 1...
Not a vegan, but organic is really a marketing term more than anything, at least in the US. Organic farming isn't necessarily a more environmentally safe alternative to normal farming, especially since "organic" pesticides tend to also cause local environmental damage.
Am I supposed to be in a group chat? Well, shit. Now I also want to know the incident that excluded me from every group chat.
