24 Times People Technically Told The Truth

Sometimes, when a question is posed online in a forum or a subreddit, a certain kind of response is expected. Not always, though, do people follow the rules when it comes to situations like this. Sometimes the truth just isn't that funny, and a funnier answer needs to be made up for the laughs. This is where technically not wrong answers come up. Comments and answers to questions that are so literal that they miss the point of the question but somehow answer it perfectly, too.

These kinds of responses are both funny and in a way annoying, like the way puns are annoying. The simplicity of them is unmatched, and they are undeniably clever. Reddit's /r/technicallythetruth features all these witty and brilliant moments from people all around social media. Here are 24 technically true moments, from comments and replies to whole memes featuring some seriously unxpected replies.
