I think it is safe to say that we have all been exposed to enough compulsive liars who never stop their lying that we have a reasonable scepticism about... well, everything. From news to personal reflections, we have a tendency to doubt everything.

The good news is, critical thinking is super-duper important and it's not actually a bad thing to look at information presented to you with a critical stance to determine fact from fiction! Yay, you! Look at you go, using your big-brain!

Where's the problem, you're wondering? Well, sometimes truth is stranger than fiction and our obsessive desire to find that everyone is blatantly lying just might lead us to miss out on some wild rides.

Thankfully, that's where this amazing Twitter thread comes in.

Twitter user Aidan Moher asked Twitter to share, and boy, did Twitter share.

1. Well, a loose hummingbird is cool, too.

when i was a kid my cat caught a hummingbird. i thought it was dead & i wanted to show my mom it’s feathers because i’d never seen one up close, but as soon as i got inside the little fucker looked right at me before it flew around the house for 25 minutes https://t.co/cKuWBifaqu

2. The really mind-blowing part is that it happened more than once.

when i was 6 one of my baby teeth fell out at some point while i was running around the school playground and another kid ended up finding it hours later and gave it back to me. this happened once more (same tooth, different kid) that day before i finally lost it for good https://t.co/6z1M3FDf4s

4. Ba-Dum-Tiss

*sad trombone noises*

This is real-life.

30 yrs ago a con man came to my hometown & ruined local families. He escaped all prosecution

He opened 3 businesses, stuffed his pockets w/millions siphoned off in salary & bonuses, defaulted on his debts, declared bankruptcy, & left town

Now he’s President of the United States https://t.co/mStWPN9kX3

8. Wait, what? That's why?

in my hometown we had a weird “zoo” in someone’s lot of land and someone shot the giraffe with a bow and arrow and fucking murdered it which is why they stopped letting the lion out https://t.co/TZj1qeb4Bv

9. LMAO, how awkward.

I accidentally walked into an AA meeting, thinking it was my grandmas retirement party (I am bad at directions), and the group leader wouldn’t let me leave because he thought I was just struggling to admit I had an addiction. https://t.co/4FnCceEyN3

10. Well, that's bone-cihlling.

I went Orlando to visit with two close childhood friends (brother snd sister), and after dinner we they wanted to go out dancing. The restaurant suggested two clubs. We drove by the first one, Pulse, and decided to continue on to the second one. That was June 12, 2016. https://t.co/fePgJJaGHZ

13. I'm not even mad, this is fantastic.

In my 53 years on earth, I have saved three people’s lives. One toddler choking on the F train. One baby in Haiti post earthquake. One woman who started to drown in a pool. https://t.co/OCm7KNGKG0

14. Wholesome? Creepy? A little bit of both?

I worked in pediatrics, I had a 5 y/o patient who had “ghost friends.” He told me about a 3 y/o girl that he colored pics with. He colored a pic of a sunflower & said she picked it out. I had a 3 y/o patient who died of cancer a day before in that room & she loved sunflowers. https://t.co/UNnnQrIQxM
