Truth-or-dare a harmless childhood game, right? Well as it turns out, sometimes this seemingly innocent game can get way, way, WAY too out of hand. These people reveal their craziest "truth-or-dare" moments.
1/30. I think my most exciting game of truth or dare was cut down in its prime when a guy dared his girlfriend to flash everyone and then broke down crying because now everyone had seen her bikini zone and he no longer felt special.
2/30. At my first job, back when I was a teenager, about 6 of us were playing this mid-shift. 3 girls, 3 guys. It was barely starting to get risqu and one of the guys is asked "have you ever masturbated to thoughts of a coworker?" And he says yes.
This is as juicy as it's gotten, so we latch onto it. The next time around, he's asked if he's masturbated to anyone else playing. He says yes. Next round, he's asked to name which of us he's jerked it to. He looks at us one by one, then says "all of you." The guys all got flustered as hell, they'd never even realized they were on the roster.
3/30. Conservative Christian school. Truth or Dare App.
Task: Dry hump the person to your right for 30 seconds. Teacher was there. Needless to say the game ended quickly.
4/30. When three of my friends, all straight males, wound up laying on the floor trying to see who could get a full raging boner first.
One of their girlfriends walked in on the competition.
We don't play Truth Or Dare anymore.
5/30. Probably the most extreme was at a weekend cabin party I was at. We were in a hot tub, there was 7 of us, most of the women were topless and some of us guys were bottomless (this had been going on for like a couple hours at this point, and we were supremely drunk). The dares got a little sexual, but that's not the extreme part of this. It's early May, but as the night goes on it gets very cold, then it starts to rain.
Then the wind picks up.

We're all too exposed and afraid of the cold to want to leave the safety of the hot tub. I also think we were too drunk to notice the conditions around us getting worse. But eventually we started sobering up and the heat of the water started dissipating. Still, the game continued, we were all shivering but no one wanted to be the first to wimp out. Until our sober sibling for the night comes out and yells at us to come in. The hot tub was sort of in the corner of this cabin, so she was surprised at what she saw to say the least.
Not 5 minutes after we gather our clothes and get inside, a gust of wind comes through and starts blowing around the furniture outside and also knocks out power. Later we found out that the wind we had continued to play truth or dare in had gotten up to 70 mph, there was some serious damage back in town, some of the town didn't have power for a week (which makes it surprising that we still had it at our dinky cabin on the side of a mountain). When we left 2 days later there were branches blocking the road down from the cabin we had to clear.
We all came very close to dying of hypothermia and/or having our head split open by flying furniture.
6/30. The game was escalating too fast anyway. This wasn't even the worst thing that happened that night but: gay friend accepted a dare to put his erect penis in a female friend. Boyfriend got him hard and while everyone (including the "victims") laughed, he mounted friend, and started pumping away. "OMG this actually feels great!" he managed to get out before looking REALLY ecstatic. She was enjoying herself as well.
It got awkwardly sex-y, they were just plain f*cking. It didn't last long. He came. "OMG I JUST CAME! hahaha!". "OMG IF I GET PREGNANT I'M GONNA KILL YOU HAHAHAHA!" The game went on. More awkwardness was had. Nothing topped the awkwardness of her calling him a week later, in tears, because she was indeed pregnant. She did not murder him in the end.
The kid just turned 18, FYI.
7/30. Got dared by my best friend to give my boyfriend a blowjob in front of the group. I was too nervous to actually get him off, and another friend dared my best friend (who is gay) to finish the job for me. He was able to get boyfriend off in about ten seconds.
Things were awkward for a long time after that.
8/30. Me: Truth My sister: Mom and Dad never loved you. Me: I don't think that's how the game works.
9/30. At a sleepover in junior high we dared our friend to strip down to his underwear...you know, homoerotic pubescent stuff. He comes out from the other room completely naked and gyrating, saying "You got more than you bargained for!"
10/30. In my first or second year of UNI my group of friends and I were having a get together after finals ended. Considering finals had just ended and it was only about 7 of us, consuming alcohol seemed like the go to activity.
So once the buzz started to hit us one of my friends tried to start a game of spin the bottle, but being a group of three couples and one single guy we decided to play truth or dare instead.
Like all truth or dare games it started out pretty innocently (Take more shots, who's your celebrity crush, etc.), but eventually things turned a bit weird.
(story continued on the next page...)
More crazy stories on the next page!
Our one single guy decided to dare one of the girls to lick whipped cream off of his shlong, and with a reluctant nod from her boyfriend she got to action. Or... At least tried to.
Once she took off the dude's pants and saw his (well) hung appendage she yells "Damn I've never seen one this big!" And before she could even uncap the whipped cream her boyfriend was swinging full force at the guy.
Me and my other friend had to get in between a half naked guy and a drunk ape, and by the time we split them up everyone was uncomfortable as hell.
After we resolved it, as my girlfriend and I started leaving, I just remember her leaning up to my ear and telling me "She knew her boyfriend was self conscious about his junk."
11/30. Turned into a threesome with at the time gf and her friend.
12/30. I (24f) was playing truth or dare with my roommates (24m, 25m). Roommate number one dares roommate number two to pee on me. Neither of us put up a fight.. roomie number one made us feel weird for being down for the dare.
13/30. Dead of winter and somebody dared one of my classmates to stick his tongue to a flagpole. Didn't even use proper dare etiquette.
14/30. When I was around around 10 I played Truth or Dare with some girls a few years older than me. I got dared to TP the principals house (of their school). It was a pretty big house maybe 3500 sq ft. They all ended up coming with me, but my dad catches us sneaking out and asks us where we're going. All of the girls start stammering and trying to tell a lie, and I look at my dad and say "We're gonna go TP a house." My dad starts laughing and responds with "Well sounds like you need adult supervision for that lets go." We ended up bringing a 10 pack of toilet paper and using the entire thing.
'Twas a fun a night.
15/30. Playing with some friends a long time ago. It was a card-based game (like Cards Against Humanity) where everyone had a pile of "Truth" cards and "Dare" cards.
For each turn the victim would opt for a Truth or a Dare. The questioner would then pull the top card from the appropriate stack, either a card with a question on it (usually off-color or loaded with sexual innuendo) or a card with a dare on it (also semi-sexual, but suitable for adult parties).
We were two couples, and so we took turns as couples, i.e. each partner would take turns with the other partner of the couple.
The other couple was a pair of young newlyweds.
(story continued on the next page...)
More ridiculous "truth-or-dare" stories on the next page!
The woman asked her husband if he wanted a truth or a dare, he replied truth. She pulled the top card: "Have you ever paid for sex?"
His answer: "Yes"
Things got very chilly the rest of the night.
16/30. When a guy I didn't know was dared to jack off under a blanket and finish while everyone watched. Everyone watched...
17/30. Friend got dared by his girlfriend to have sex with her in the other room and finish inside her (no birth control). He refused, they broke up, we found out it was a setup she had planned to get herself preggies and force him to marry her.
Strange night.
18/30. Not truth or dare but during a game of Neve Have I Ever my friend said "never have I ever blown a guy" all the girls put down fingers. Said friend looked at my boyfriend and said "uh you have to put a finger down". Turned out my boyfriend cheated on me with a guy. Kicker every single person in the room playing the game knew about it but me.
Awkward silence ensued.
19/30. "Bet you can't jump that ditch". 4 hours later, doctor tells us the guy had dislocated one of shoulders.
20/30. Me, a cousin, and a couple of buddies were at a youth conference in another town. After the conference was over, we got to chatting with a group of girls from the town. We decided to hang out back at our hotel room. We were all just chatting and listening to tunes when all of the sudden, all four girls went to the bathroom together, leaving us sitting there like chumps.
When they came out, they were all grinning. But we thought nothing of it. A few minutes later, one of them proposed a game of truth or dare. But, they insisted, the girls would be the ones to make all the dares. We agreed, hoping for at least some scraps of action.
(story continued on the next page...)
More hilarious and shocking "truth-or-dare" stories on the next page!
Long story short, every single one of us wound up getting laid. One of the guys even did it on the floor, and the other couple fucked in the bathroom. Turns out, the girls had planned it all along. They decided in advance which of them wanted each of us, got their story straight, and then proposed the game. They'd even brought their own condoms.
The only draw back was, God, did it stink in that room when my uncle came strolling in to wake us up the next morning.
21/30. This girl asked her friend to dare someone to have unprotected sex with her. When he received the dare he literally just got up and walked out the house. Then the girl gets drunk, tries it on with a few guys there (to which they all rejected), confessed her love to another guy there, threatened to kill herself, then fell asleep.
This was a few years ago. I saw her a few months back and she looked pretty normal to me. That is pretty and normal, but I will never forget that day.
22/30. I was dared to touch a cow pie (poop pile). Put a finger on it and the person who dared me shoved my entire hand in. Grabbed a handful and flung it at her.
23/30. The moment it turned into a drunk all out orgy.
24/30. A guy stood right at the edge and shat into the swimming pool at the motel we were staying at.
25/30. Probably 20 years old at the time. Girlfriend, her sister and cousin from Germany were in the car. Cousin says let's play and so we all said OK.
All fun and games till we pull over into a McDonald's parking lot and I get dared to walk in and order fries in my underwear. They drove off and I had to borrow the phone to call my gf to make them come back for me. Saw all the tits though, so it was worth it.

26/30. There was a time we were playing truth or dare in a hot tub. A girl friend of ours had dared me to get hard in front of everyone. So I get up out of the tub and start playing with myself. Then from around the corner of the house I get a flashlight in my face.
That was the time I masterbated in front of a police officer.
27/30. Played it with some friends at one of their apartments, before the game we wrote down dares on slips of paper, and on one of the slips I wrote down that you had to strip down to your underwear with your pants around your ankles, wear a blue shirt as a cape, exit the apartment and slowly waddle to the end of the long hallway and back, all while repeatedly saying "gotta go fast." I thought it was bizarre and great
I picked my own dare.
28/30. My friends little brother (9 or 10 years old) came in and dared one of the girls to slit her finger open, put a paperclip into her finger then stick that paperclip into an electrical outlet while it was still in her finger. After we told him no he offered a replacement dare, which was to go down the street and burn down the church.
29/30. Someone had to spin around 50 times, take 10 consecutive shots of tequila, and run into a road.
They actually came out ok.
30/30. They dared me to leave :(
People Explain Which Disgusting Things They Can't Stand But Everyone Else Seems To Love
I eat just about anything, but can't say I'm a fan of okra. Might it have to do with the way it is typically prepared, at least in my experience? It's slimy. It shouldn't be. It would probably taste better fried. But I have friends from the South who swear it is heaven on a plate.
But there's more than food that's disgusting. Like... why do people idolize Joe Exotic, the Tiger King? He's a sexual predator and a criminal. I know we all needed something to watch during lockdown, but damn. Don't tattoo his face on your body!
People shared their opinions after Redditor blackismyfavcolorlol asked the online community,
"What's that one disgusting thing that everybody except you seems to like?"
"It sounds so gross..."
"Deep-fried butter and deep-fried mayonnaise. It sounds so gross but everyone seems to eat it at state fairs or amusement parks."
Yeah... I'll pass.
I love butter. I love mayo. Do they need to be fried, though?
"You know the type..."
"Those social media videos of food being made with so much heavy and greasy s***! You know, the type where it's a whole burger, cooked into a quesadilla with a pound of cheese, then fried and covered in three different sauces."
So unnecessary. And they ultimately become a waste of food because who would actually eat that?
"People who slam..."
"People who slam their friend's faces into birthday cakes. Just stop."
I would be so pissed if I spent so much money on hair and makeup only to have it ruined.
"You know what..."
"You know what I think is sick and weird? Why do some people take pictures of their dead/dying family members? Like "at the hospital with my aunt," and it's pictures of someone's aunt on breathing tubes unconscious. It makes no sense to me why you would take pictures and put them on social media."
"Or parents..."
"Pictures with babies. Or parents creating Facebook profiles in the name of their children, and those children are like... 3 years old, or less."
"Well..."
"Well, I know I can't be the only one that finds them disgusting, but long fake nails. Unless you have a serious case of hand-washing OCD, there is no way that can be hygienic."
How do these people wipe after going to the bathroom?!
"The smell..."
"Truffles. The smell makes my stomach turn. I feel like there has to be some kind of bizarre conspiracy or truffle gatherer lobby or something for them to be so expensive."
"He's a predator..."
"Tiger King.
The guy is a sociopath who manipulated two young straight men into a sexual relationship, which ended in one of them committing suicide. Then he had the audacity to give the most tasteless eulogy in front of the guy's family.
He's a predator and I'm shocked that more non-straight and non-monogamous people aren't speaking up against him being released and getting more screen time."
There are people out there who have gotten tattoos of him. Why would you want a tattoo of a sexual predator on your body?!
"I have so many friends..."
"Whiskey. I have so many friends who love it, but the moment it touches my tongue I gag immediately, regardless of how expensive it is."
Do you hear that sound?
That's me getting ready to hurl.

How do you tell if someone has a crush on you?
It's not always so easy, and many of us will fumble our way through it. Perhaps our only experience with navigating crushes comes from John Hughes movies (which I don't recommend following).
Oh, and while this isn't a Hughes movie, I would not recommend doing to one's crushes what the nerds do in the terrible Revenge of the Nerds.
Looking for advice? Look no further. You can thank Redditor chaitea_lexax who asked the online community,
"What is a dead giveaway that someone has a crush on you?"
"When they tell you..."
"When they tell you at your 10-year high school reunion after they've married and had several children and it doesn't matter anymore."
This is oddly specific.
Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion this is not.
"When they try to be mean..."
"When they try to be mean to you, you can tell. If they weren't interested, they wouldn't be trying to tease you, they would just ignore you."
Yeah, but I wish people didn't think that was okay. Mind games aren't cool.
"She stayed in my dorm..."
"Well, she changed in front of me, that didn't tip me off. She stayed in my dorm for 5 days, I was none the wiser. She said she wanted to kiss me, I finally figured it out."
"Although..."
"Although this may be more for initial attraction, women tend to 'oh so casually' drop into conversation their relationship status or better yet, lack thereof. It's rarely subtle, but I don't think men do it quite so much."
Interesting!
Well, if you make clear that you're available, then it would make sense that someone might think that you're interested.
"Though the rule of thumb is usually..."
"It's something that can't really be answered as we are all different in our actions and how we interpret things.
Though the rule of thumb is usually if they attempt to spend more time with you and often seek your help, even if you don't know the answer. It's usually a presence thing. Though again, they may just simply enjoy your company and don't like you any more than just a friend."
"If you hang out..."
"If you hang out in the same social circles there are a few sure-fire ways. The one that is really telling is when something funny happens that makes the entire group laugh. If they look at you straight away to see if you found it funny, they're into you."
I had this happen to me a few times. Sometimes it worked out and sometimes it didn't, I'll leave it at that.
"If you have a watch..."
"If you have a watch, look at the time then look somewhere random. Chances are they will also check the time."
"If you have mutual friends..."
"If you have mutual friends or acquaintances it would probably be your friends or their friends giving you hints or teasing that the person is romantically interested in you."
This has happened with some of my friends and it's pretty cute when it's reciprocated!
"I asked my girlfriend..."
"I asked my girlfriend to marry me today and she said yes. I have suspicions she might have a crush."
Plot twist: it's you!
"A girl would always..."
"This happened to me in college. A girl would always glance at me and when we lock eyes she would look away. I asked her out and during our conversation she touched my forearms and thighs a few times."
When it comes to crushes, it's not necessarily one size fits all, so take any and all advice with a grain of salt. You're better off being direct, but that is, of course, easier said than done.

You feel safe all the time...
...but the world is more dangerous than you realize. Even the things you don't normally assume to be deadly, the actions you do every day, can lead to some unfortunate injury or, worse, death.
Watch out for springs. Seriously.
Reddit user, u/FrenchDude1000, wanted to know what they should be more careful around when they asked:
What's dangerous but most people don't realize?
Never underestimate the power of nature. Be it living or non-living, the things out in the wild are more ferocious than you realize.
Water Always Wins
"Water, specifically moving water. People have no sense about how powerful large volumes of moving water can be."
"My grandfather used to point out boulders in flash flood channels and ask us how they got there. A flash flood is literally thousands of gallons of water moving with the force of a hurricane, mowing down anything in it path; your odds of survival if you get caught in one are slim to none. Water is no joke!"
pretty-as-a-picThey're Called "Wild" For A Reason
"Chimpanzees."
"Ever since I saw that woman on TV that was ripped apart by her own pet chimp, I swear I would freak out if I ever had to be in the vicinity of a chimp irl. She didn't die but it f-cked her up bad enough that those things scare me. When people use them in music videos or whatever, I always think of that lady."
"It wasn't her chimp - it was her neighbor's. And she was known to the chimp, and had interacted with it for years before, on friendly terms."
"One day it just went, well, ape.."
It's Literally A Big Ball Of Burning Death
"THE SUN. Skin cancer is a major killer that is easily preventable by wearing sunscreen. Sun damage is more significant than many people realize and it's such an easy thing to avoid."
Even The Cute Ones...
"ALL wild animals are dangerous, even if they don't look it. Most people know that large predators like mountain lions and bears are dangerous, but many underestimate herbivores and/or smaller animals like deer and squirrels. A lot of people assume smaller animals/herbivores are tame, and try to get close or even touch them. This is extremely dangerous- these animals don't understand humans, and an animal that feels cornered or threatened will lash out to try and escape. Please keep a safe and respectful distance from any animal you don't know!"
Going to the doctor can feel like a big weight, especially if you don't have the right kind of coverage. That's probably why things like the following can lead to dangerous outcomes.
Brush, Brush, Brush Your Teeth
"An infected tooth."
"True! An abscess under the gum line can literally kill you."
"Argued with a receptionist about this. I had one badly and she said she'd never heard of it killing anyone. Like... yeah, ask your damn boss."
Go For A Walk
"A bad diet and sedentary lifestyle. Most people don't think about how these two can lead to an incredible amount of health problems and how they can remain asymptomatic for years and suddenly have a heart attack or stroke."
And then there's these, typical, every day actions or items we might come into contact with which actually pose more of a threat than we realize.
Watch out for those springs.
Buckle Up
"Driving. The forces involved in driving are way above anything the human body can withstand should things go wrong. All the safety features built into cars lead us to believe that it's a safe activity, which encourages additional risky behaviors like texting. Everybody should be hyper focused while driving down the highway at 80mph, but almost everybody is doing something else in addition to driving."
Buckle Up THE RIGHT WAY
"90% of children are improperly restrained in the car."
"I spent a decade as a CPST and the things I've seen are deeply upsetting knowing they're easily fixable with an hour or two of effort."
"I've seen children internally decapitated. Parents put their kids in car seats forward facing far too early, booster seats before they're truly large enough, coats under the straps, straps never properly tightened."
"Car accidents are still a leading cause of death. The awareness has gotten better in the last 15 years but with plenty of room for improvement."
"If you have a child, please make an appointment with a certified CPST whenever they are big enough for their next seat or seating position. It's worth the effort."
"Also, not every fire fighter is a CPST. The goal is to teach YOU how to install the seat, not to have them do it for you."
Think Of Your Mental Health
"toxic workplace. stay there long enough and you will hate life itself"
"And then the toxic people who say "think about the money" when you mention quitting for your mental health"
Hire A Professional
"Garage door springs will f-ck you up."
"I'm generally a do-it-yourselfer, but I don't mess with breaker boxes or garage door springs."
Be safe out there. You never know when a wild spring is going to jump out of the dark, ready to attack.

There is a lot to hate about the world today. It seems like around every corner, awful news foretelling the end of the world is playing on every screen.
And we are expected to live in the middle of this? 2020 saw the rise of the term "doom scrolling" because the news about the world was so grim.
Redditor u/MeetMeOnNovember asked:
"What do you hate most about the world today?"
Here were some of the answers.
Money Keeps Coming Out
"Everything is subscription now. And I understand why (good, reliable monthly income for a company) but it feels like everything is turning subscription! Movie services make sense, maybe music, but photoshop? Virtual machines?"
"This is very old school of me but I want to buy something once and then own it. I don't want to pay a monthly price for everything."-cloistered_around
Being Honest
"Honesty and admitting wrongdoing is a liability, wherein the risk outweighs the reward."-liquorlanche617
"Car accidents are the worse. The at fault party will try to do EVERYTHING to pretend they weren't at fault. Insurance cards even tell you to never admit fault."
"I got t-boned by somebody who blew a stop sign and I couldn't believe how much she was trying to blame me when I had no stop and she blew thru hers."
"Cops quickly saw she was using every excuse in the book and luckily I had a couple witnesses who backed my truthful story."-Zealousideal-Wall471
The Plot Of Scream 4
"Not the worst (people have already said it), I hate how normalized wanting/needing to be famous on social media purely for validation (and not for your content) has become."
"I don't mean this as a dig, but if you are making content and want to become famous; you should probably have a marketable skill (comedy, acting, singing, anything else) prior to that instead of trying to make one up after you've got a following."-thehotdeskpodcast
The world today can really be an anathema for our peace.
Narcissism
"Lack of empathy everywhere. Dating, platonic social interactions, workplace, online in general people be treating each other like expendables. I don't know why. Or if the world was always this way and I am only noticing as an adult."-throwaway-_-friend
"It's actually lack of compassion more than empathy. Lots of people know how others feel and don't give a sh*t. What is lacking is people who actually care about what others feel."-touchtheclouds
The Worst Kinds Of People
"How much being a sh*t person is actually celebrated and encouraged....I don't understand this one myself. My coworker is one of those girls that prides herself on being a b*tch."
"She proudly states how many people she's ran out of our workplace, and it blows my mind. 33 and proud of being a mean girl... oof. The worst part is how many people encourage her for being like that."-PUTYOURWHATINMYWHAT
Lies Of Life
"My grandfather raised 8 kids supported his wife, and paid a mortgage on a 40-50 hour a week managers salary at Sears. They had a two weeks interstate vacation every year."
"It wasnt anything lavish, usually they went by station wagon to West Virginia (where my grandparents were from) or they went to Venice, Florida or something."
"But it was still two weeks of vacation for TEN PEOPLE. They never took government assistance."
"That is so far from fantasy these days it's not even fathomable. If somebody put that in a movie most people would be unable to suspend their disbelief. In fact it's absurd to even expect I could support just myself with a comparable job today."-nomoredrinkypoo
The Social Life Is Online
"People exploit social issues and mental health awareness on social media and pretend to care by making posts about them saying they care and are there for those people, but they only make those posts to make themselves look good publicly."
"The fact is most of them do absolutely nothing to help in their personal lives and they often ignore and turn their backs on the very people they publicly claim to care about and have empathy for. Actions speak louder than words."-lostwanderer02
The world's ugliness is more on display than ever before.
Engendering Desperation
"So many people will harm/kill others just for a measly amount of money. Even worse a lot just do it for the fun of it, the money wouldn't even matter to them."
"Every software company I get hired at they are scamming their customers and nobody at the company cares. I use to change jobs, but now I just have to find one that scams the least because they all do in my industry."-P3nNam3
It's Coming Down To Nothing More Than Apathy
"Privacy- It scares me that so many people are surrendering to the idea of being constantly monitored at all times. I was talking with a younger coworker about how I will never have an Alexa or any similar device in my home, since cellphones are bad enough."
"He responded very nonchalantly, 'I've just accepted it at this point.' That bothered me very deeply."
"Big box stores over local stores- I also despise how there's a growing acceptance towards big box corporate stores over local stores."
"I know way too many people who will buy literally everything from Amazon, WalMart, etc because they don't feel like going out and shopping."
"I've lived in a large city for many years, and I'm seeing huge corporation chain stores replacing unique, charming, incredible stores that have been in some communities for decades."
"It's not a good feeling or sight to see when every community you go to begins to be an endless repetition. But everything is cheaper!"
"Yeah, everything also breaks more easily, and specialized workers will be replaced by workers that are just numbers on a corporate spreadsheet who know the company doesn't give a damn about them."
"I know I sound grouchy but it is as if I'm seeing a real degradation and no one seems to care because it's easier or that we should just accept that it's happening."-According_To_Me
Cruelty
"How people think it's okay to film you and invade your privacy. I got into a pretty bad car accident in a busy intersection a few years ago and some aholes decided to film me while laughing."
"I was bleeding from my face and obviously in shock from the incident. The accident was so bad that I had to go to therapy and I stopped driving for years after."
"When I'm having a depressive episode, I can't help but think about how cruel some people are."-MurakamiMadeMeDoIt
The world isn't only ugly, though. The world can have beauty hidden beside the sheer overwhelming darkness of it.
Take a moment to stop and smell the roses, as they say.
