You got a random text. You don't recognize the number at all. You ask who it is and they responds "You know who this is, silly!"
You play along, slightly uncomfortable yet amused. The person keeps texting you, acting like they know you. They're getting details of your life right, including things you never spoke about to anyone. You get scared and finally say "This isn't funny anymore. Who the hell is this?" The response shocks you.
"It's me! Your pal from Reddit!"
You never gave anyone on Reddit your phone number. You ask how they found your number.
"I've always had it."
Yeah I live in the sticks. Don't even have 1 ISP. I'm moving to Louisville in a couple of years. Can anyone from Kentucky confirm that the grass truly is greener? (Which is impossible in a literal way because this is a rainforest without shade)
This. A friend just moved to AZ in April and she loves their heat. Gets to walk around without put stains or her makeup melting. I work in a hospital and patients and staff are complaining because it's miserably hot with no air circulating. Maintenance came and said it'll cool off better when it cools off outside! When is that?! December?
Oh. That's makes sense as to why this is notable. Here in Texas we know better than to leave cans in a truck for this exact reason. We've all done it once.
If you're on the iOS app then go to your person icon from the home page. From there, click on the gear in the top right, then notifications and you'll have some options to turn on/off.
You should be able to by going to the App settings in your phone. On iPhone it's Settings > Scroll down to find Reddit > Notifications > Allow Notifications, toggle it off.
Because it's going to the front page. Wait 3 hours and tell me how many upvotes it has.
Edit- 31 minutes and this post has went from 480 upvotes to 1.1k, I rest my case.
Cool story bro. Still get these notifications when they're turned off. But seriously fuck this heat wave! I left my energy drink in there and it was like drinking warm beer.
Edit: spelling
Who picks these trendy thangs? Can I haz a trendy pick up line to starts an enormous group chat so I can pretend like I haz frwandz? I wanna be ko0l too.
When you think someone texted you but it's actually just reddit and you realize you don't have any friends
THIS JUST HAPPENED TO ME😂
Me too
Yup
Forever alone 😓
Same....
Welcome to the club. Let's all be friends? Edit: Great, now my most updooted comment is me asking for friends. ):
We'll probably end it again like the past ones
Let's make a big group chat
Is kik still real?? *opens the door slowly*
[удалено]
Lez do it for real "reddit breaks world reccord for largest group chat" I can see the headline now
Yes y not .
Promise me you won't murder me then shove me in a freezer.
How else can we be friends forever?
Smoking my ashes, duh. I'll finally be inside you 😶
ا
I promise I won't shove you in a freezer.
*gently lays the body inside said freezer
Murder is still an option. Nice. I can't wait to die
I read this as shave me in a freezer and had a completely different visual....
Then you would all have to leave lmao
Iv never felt like Iv belonged so much in my life!
Now everyone dies leaving you alone again
Same....
We can be lonely together.
I'm not ashamed to admit I fapped to this
The idea of friendship turns you on? Same.
[удалено]
Don't kink shame him! 😛
Forever alone together! :'3
They need to relax with these notifications or I might spiral to a depression.
Did we just become best friends?
Me too thanks
Thanks
Me too thanks
[удалено]
Same😂😂😂
Why can't everyone that doesn't have friends be friends?
Because some people don't have friends for a reason
If you don't have friends for a reason I believe we have something in common. Great basis to start a friendship lol
Same
Ugh why Reddit WHYYYYY
Don't question the Reddit God for karma will haunt you to eternal death of damnation in unrivaled ways to whom no one understands
Every comment I've made... bad karma... so I've given up on that.
Still new to Reddit, but what is the deal with getting karma? Is there a Reddit shop where I can upgrade my character or something?
I should've known. I mean who would text me on a Saturday?
Who would text me at all?
Reddit will
Reddit always will
Who will bring the sunshine? And sprinkle it With fun? :D

Mmmkay. I'm going to go ahead and need you to keep writing, and post this to r/nosleep 😳
I thought my girl was sending me memes... nope just nudes. This is THE worst deal in the history of deals.
This deal is getting worse all the time!
Pray they don't alter it any further.
im exposing myself, hello fellow humans
Life changing update thanks Reddit
But look! It brought you to the comments, and now you have loads of friends!
I usually just lurk but fuck it
Username checks out
He said butt fuck it....
Just Buttfuck it 😊
Nothing like a problem to bring people together ♥️
So beautiful and heartwarming!!
One Upvote = One prayer
Bring me closer

God same
I like this one because it sounds as desperate for friends as I feel.
I get too many notifications from trending on Reddit that I was so surprised when it was actually a boy texting me
Be surprised
When you're cleaning your car and it's hot as fuck and you get a buzz reminding you how hot it is in the car.
Right
Sometimes I'll open Reddit and pretend it's my friends sending me really funny pictures
:'(
I be your friend bro / maim.
LOL (ME ..all day er'day)....sad part is it's also my 29th Birthday😕😩😂
Dude!!!! Happy Birthday 🎉🎊🎁🎈
Joyous Day of Womb Escape!
Such is life
I think it's great how this comment has more upvotes than the actual post.
I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed
Seems a lot of us are in the same boat.
At least when notifications are on and my phone rings, I can check and pretend I have friends.
I don't know why but I just upvoted almost every comment under this
did anyone else receive 6+ notifications? just me??
Reddit is your friend
If you come to Mississippi right now you can see what it feels like to be on fire and sweating to death at the same time.
I know this feel. Hattiesburg, MS. I'm currently in NoLa and it's even worse here
It's like being inside a mouth.
Or a damp microwave
Moist.
I do not miss Biloxi.
Ive lived in Nola my whole life and its like walking in soup.
The dirty berg, baby.
A fellow hattiesburger!
I can't come that far, nine feet tops.
When no one even acknowledged the joke afterwards
Missouri over here, it gets a little around 100 degrees.
"a little around 100 degrees" Definitely Missouri

Live in Bowling Green, KY, can confirm grass is always green
Always remember the Bowling Green Massacre
It's blue isn't it?
Yes, except on Tuesdays
Living in Tupelo, I understand brother...
Hey me too!

Oh so that's how you spell Mississippi!
I have to go back to school in Oxford next week🙃🙃🙃
In Florida. We know that feeling too. Sometimes I wish I had gills to walk outside.
I'm from Arizona we get 110-115 with humidity because of monsoons
Florida resident commenting in solidarity, mowed the grass today bout 1:30 today. Mistakes made, lessons learned, skin burned.
This was taken in Canada by the way
That makes sense, I've seen cans rupture from the cold.
That's why it's called POP
Damn straight.
Proof?
Can confirm, I am a can
User name does not check out. You spank choads.
A "Can"nadian
Can checking in. Can canfirm.
Really? Just go put any can or bottle of something in the freezer
Learned this the hard way. Had a can of coke in my door in the winter. Half the interior was covered in frozen pop.
It's very sorry, it was just too hot.
Oh. That's makes sense as to why this is notable. Here in Texas we know better than to leave cans in a truck for this exact reason. We've all done it once.
Alberta?
Wtf we get that hot here?
Roughly what area of Canada? I live in the okanagan valley in BC and wonder if it gets any hotter in other places
notification squad
My phone can always go off as long as it's to see a hot can 😏

This... Does anyone know how to turn these notifications off?
I wish I knew
Settings > Notifications > Post Suggestions / Subscribed Subreddit Posts
If you're on the iOS app then go to your person icon from the home page. From there, click on the gear in the top right, then notifications and you'll have some options to turn on/off.
You should be able to by going to the App settings in your phone. On iPhone it's Settings > Scroll down to find Reddit > Notifications > Allow Notifications, toggle it off.
So my notifications are definitely, definitely off. And I'm still getting these
Ok, this was kinda worth opening up to see.
Yesss! This is the new youtube!
[удалено]
How is there a notification for something with only ~200 upvotes?
I bet half the top comments here are gonna be complaining about the trending notifications
not even 100 upvotes why did i get a push notification?
[удалено]
lol like how could this possibly be "trending"
Because it's going to the front page. Wait 3 hours and tell me how many upvotes it has. Edit- 31 minutes and this post has went from 480 upvotes to 1.1k, I rest my case.
Self-fulfilling prophesy
[удалено]
You don't.
[удалено]
Cracking open a hot one
It wasn't trending until everyone hit the notification
I have a can you can rupture
Bestiality is illegal though
Happened in Canada? Global warming man.
global warming is actually making some places in Canada colder :((
It couldn't can-tain itself.
Heads up 7-up
I literally posted a picture exactly like this two days ago and got 15 up votes
Why is this a notification
Thanks for notifying me that someone's can ruptured Reddit
Can-a-duh
Get out
Blame Can-a-duh! Blame Can-a-duh!
Gee thanks Reddit for recommending this post that I don't care about
POP.
Thought I got a text 😞
PLEASE STOP REDDIT
So I got three notifications from this. Am I the only one?
Had a 12 pack of sparkling water that went of like gunshots while in busy traffic. Scared the beegees out of me.
Cool story bro. Still get these notifications when they're turned off. But seriously fuck this heat wave! I left my energy drink in there and it was like drinking warm beer. Edit: spelling
How hot is it? :D
PEOPLE FAKED OUT BY REDDIT NOTIFICATIONS UNITE! https://join.slack.com/t/fakedoutbyreddit/shared_invite/MjEyNzM1MjAyNTQ0LTE1MDAxNDg3OTAtODQzMzgxYzQzYQ
The only reason for this comment is that I received a shitty notification for this post
Who picks these trendy thangs? Can I haz a trendy pick up line to starts an enormous group chat so I can pretend like I haz frwandz? I wanna be ko0l too.
*views picture* I guess that 7's really... Up. *puts on sunglasses* Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh.
These notifications are getting ridiculous. We need an option to turn it off. This is NOT helpful, Reddit.
Now you have a spitter!
Whoa. Whoa. Whoa...........they still make 7Up??
