We can confidently tell you that a whole new universe of humiliation has evolved with the expansion of technology and communication, especially with the rise of social media platforms, since cellphones became a reality within the previous 10-15 years.
Despite our best efforts, we occasionally have a tendency to misspell words or even misinterpret the message we received from the person on the other end when texting.
However, often the most interesting conversations result from minor blunders, misunderstandings, and a dash of family drama. A prime example of this is the "yourshi*tyfamily" Instagram account, which compiles amusing texts sent between relatives.
This website is a goldmine for cringeworthy and amusing stuff, with everything from dad jokes to mums sending their kids old memes.

This page has you covered for every life situation you might find yourself in, from a mom admitting her sense of style might not be the best (to the point of thinking that if something looks cool in her eyes, it probably needs to be burned on a stake) to kids forgetting to thaw the chicken and trying to make their way out of it. It raises the bar for relatability significantly.9.

And what makes this page the best of all? Since they allow submissions from real-life individuals like you and me, the texts that are posted are genuinely true stories that the Instagram page is just reposting. So, if you believe that your parents, siblings, step-siblings, uncles, aunts, grandparents, and even the cousins you see once a year at a family gathering have some humorous texts between them, you'd better submit them right now!13.
