• From mistakenly declaring your love to a random old man to singing happy birthday
for a stranger, the Planet Dolan crew re-enact some of the best true stories from our subreddit
about our embarrassing wrong number calls.
I’m Doopie and today I’ll be your narrator.
Number 10 was submitted by thefakejaiden Zaraganba When Zaraganba was in the eighth grade, he
was secretly in love with a girl in his class.
They spoke every night on the phone.
One night he decided it was time to man up and tell her how he felt.
So he called her and waited.
The second he heard someone answer, Zaraganba blurted out, “I love you!
I’ve always loved you!”
He didn’t hear anything for a few seconds, then an old man with a deep voice said, “Err…
sorry sonny…
You’ve called the wrong number…”
Zaraganba later found out his crush got a new number, and gave her old SIM card to a
relative.
He really wished she’d told him that before he declared his love to some random old guy.
Number 9 was submitted by awkward_scientists GhostToast
One day GhostToast wanted to call his cousin for a chat.
He accidentally got one number wrong when dialling and ended up calling some old lady
by mistake.
GhostToast apologised, but the old lady was drunk and wouldn’t listen!
She thought GhostToast was her ex-husband calling and started hurling abuse at him!
GhostToast decided to hang up, but the crazy lady called back five times just to scream
at him!
In the end, GhostToast had no choice but to block her number.
He made sure never to dial a wrong number again.
Number 8 was submitted by FoxMaster2 Melissa One day Melissa was leaving work when she
noticed she had six missed calls from an unknown number.
Melissa thought this might be an urgent call from her mom’s work number so she called
the number back.
A woman answered right away and shouted, “When are you guys delivering that dildo?”
She sounded really distressed, like it was a matter of life and death.
Melissa had to awkwardly explain that the woman had the wrong number.
She later found out why the mix-up had happened: her number was only one number different from
a local sex shop’s phone number!
Number 7 was submitted by Xx_Daenerys_xX Pandora One morning Pandora woke up after having a
very sexy dream.
Her first impulse was to text her friend about it, so she grabbed her phone and wrote: ‘Omg!
I dreamt I was squirting!’
But when Pandora hit SEND she realised she’d sent it to her mother by mistake.
Her mom sent back a bunch of question marks, so Pandora had to cover by saying ‘Oops!
Stupid autocorrect!
It’s supposed to say surfing.’
Her mom was not convinced by this lie, so it was a pretty embarrassing morning for Pandora.
Number 6 was submitted by Kryokimi HoneyBits One day HoneyBits was chilling in her room
when her phone rang.
She glanced at her screen, saw a short name beginning with the letter ‘M’, and answered
it, thinking it was her mom.
But instead of a simple “Hello”, HoneyBits answered the phone by saying, “Hey Mom,
did you get my tampons from the store yet?”
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end…
Then a masculine voice said, “Uh… no?”
That's when HoneyBits realised that it was her crush calling!
He was calling to invite her for a drive in his truck.
HoneyBits went for the drive, but she was so embarrassed she could barely look him in
the eye the entire day!
Number 5 was submitted by Mote-of-Lobross SpinalPalm
Back in the early 2000s, SpinalPalm bought his first camera phone.
Since camera phones and texting were fairly new at the time, SpinalPalm decided the best
thing to do with his new toy was to stick it down his pants, snap a photo of his junk,
and then text it to his friend who was sitting just a few feet away.
Unfortunately he sent it to the wrong contact.
Instead, it went to probably the worst person possible: his psychiatrist!
She cracked jokes about it every time he went in for an appointment.
He was so embarrassed that he ended up changing psychiatrists.
Number 4 was submitted by Lssjgaming Grgak One time Grgak and his friend were stuck on
a really difficult level of Donkey Kong.
Grgak’s friend suggested they call the official Nintendo Hotline to get some help, so Grgak
went and grabbed his mom’s phone.
Grgak ended up messing up the number and calling a phone sex hotline by accident!
They realised their mistake right away but decided to play along.
Grgak put the woman on speaker and they both had a good laugh about it.
Unfortunately, Grgak’s parents weren’t very happy about the expensive phone sex charges
on their bill.
That was an uncomfortable conversation for Grgak!
Number 3 was submitted by MEGA_PICKLE Pringle When Pringle was fifteen he felt like catching
a movie with his friend so he found his friend’s name in his phone contacts and hit CALL.
No one answered at first so Pringle waited ten minutes then called again.
On the fifth ring, someone answered!
Pringle was about to start speaking when his friend’s dad suddenly said: “Listen!
I don’t know who you are [pant] but give me another twenty minutes [groan] and I’ll
call you back.
I’m balls-deep in the wife right now!”
Pringle was so shocked that he immediately hung up.
He looked at his phone and realised he’d been calling his friend’s house phone, not
his mobile!
Six months later, Pringle went to that same friend’s house for his birthday.
His friend’s dad told an embarrassing story about a telemarketer who kept calling while
he and his wife were having sex…
Pringle kept his mouth shut and never called his friend’s home phone again!
Number 2 was submitted by lampent51 Cidius When Cidius was a kid his dad was away a lot
for work.
He was even away on his own birthday!
Cid’s aunt decided it would be a nice surprise if Cid called his dad up and sang happy birthday
to him over the phone.
Cid called his dad’s number and sang the most excited rendition of happy birthday he'd
ever done.
When he finished singing the person on the other end said, “Who is this?!” in a deep,
manly voice.
Cid thought his dad was joking around so he said, “I know it’s you, Dad!”
The caller told Cid he had the wrong number, but thanked him for the random happy birthday.
Cid got off the phone and melted into a pool of embarrassment.
