For a lot of people, the web is a vast place to promote themselves and their stories. Here, everyone seems to want attention and will do everything or say things that they think will gather attention or publicity, no matter what kind it would be.

Sometimes, they do a good job at it, but most of the time, they are not really subtle about it and they do not care whether what they say is true or not because they think that anyone will eat up any story as long as it is posted on the Internet. That being said, lies on the web are abundant—and they can range from a harmless tweet from a person that only chases clout, to a whole article that's full of fake news and made-up facts.

People lie on their platforms due to many reasons and use different techniques, but what's worse is that even though we may be aware that they exist, we can't exactly avoid these fake stories forever. But news flash: while they may be rampant, it's not actually that difficult to determine if something is made up or not.

After all, there will always be people who will call out other people's bullshit, especially when the things they say seem to be exaggerated to the point it's embarrassingly hilarious. People like this are the reason why the Twitter Didn’t Happen to the Year Awards (DHOTYA) keeps thriving—it takes pride in exposing lies that are shared on the Internet.

Take a look at some of their best tweets below!

Have you ever come across a post on the Internet that sounded so absurd you get secondhand embarrassment from the person who posted it? Sometimes, we don't even know if these people are genuinely making up stories just to get attention or if they are being completely satire, but one thing is for sure, they do amuse us in different kinds of ways.
