Funniest texts from parents
Let me tell you something about parents. They do not care! They have zero chill! You give a mom an iPhone and suddenly she thinks she’s a comedian. You have a dad out here pretending to be a moth? A moth! That is commitment! That is method acting! If my dad texted me that, I would call the police. I would be terrified!
And the mom searching for Johnny Depp’s butt? No! Absolutely not! We are not having that conversation! You are supposed to be the responsible one! But that is the beauty of technology. It exposes the fact that our parents are just as crazy as we are, maybe crazier. They are out here roasting us about being adopted and clarifying which sea lion is which. It is disrespectful! But it is funny!
Communication across the generational divide is always tricky, but texting takes it to a whole new level of awkwardness. We have gathered the most savage, confused, and unintentionally hilarious messages sent by parents who are still figuring out how emojis work.
The roast about the hair dryer singing is brutal. That is emotional damage right there. It is amazing how much personality can come through in a simple blue bubble. Whether they are being accidentally funny or purposefully mean, these parents are definitely keeping the family group chat interesting.
If you enjoyed these family fails, there is plenty more domestic drama to explore. Check out funny family texts, parenting humor, and awkward text memes for more digital dysfunction.
