Is honesty truly the best policy? Maybe not.
Social media users have shared the hilarious signs, tweets, and dating profiles that show the pure bluntness people use every day.
Stores across the United States appear to have said they’re hiring ‘losers’, announced they’re selling ‘ugly’ merchandise, and only having a sale because ‘business sucks’.
When it comes to dating profiles and relationships, one woman told her boyfriend she was ‘pooping’ when he asked what she was doing, while another said she was ‘much fatter in person’ in her dating profile.
Meanwhile, people begging for money said that they just ‘needed a beer’ and were ‘too ugly to prostitute.
Here, MailOnline shares some of the most ridiculous honest signs, texts and tweets seen across the world – perhaps people need to learn to use a little white lie once in a while.
