‘What was the incident in your group chat?’ – 21 times harmony went out the window
Many, and possibly most, people are in a group chat of some sort these days. It might be with members of the family, colleagues, other parents from school, the local Wiccan coven – anything.
It can be a generally harmonious, if sometimes irritating, experience, but it also doesn’t take much to throw it into chaos. This question was designed to tease out what might cause that chaos.

When my grandmother died, my mother sent the news in a group text, and my brother responded to let her know that he’d told my sister. But her name got autocorrected to ‘Satan’ so the reply he sent to my mother said “I notified Satan”

I won so many head-to-head bets about politics and sports against a crypto-obsessed tech bro my other friend invited that he lost a few thousand dollars, threw a hissy fit, and stormed out to establish another group chat that no one joined. https://t.co/BfDyouaVzg

My friend texted "I fucking hate Lacy" to our group chat, unaware she had sent it to the group chat that Lacy was very much a part of.
(I think this was the incident that broke me because I have not laughed as hard before or since it happened.) https://t.co/hamESnMSE7
