I made a throwaway account and came up with this load of bullshit because I was wired and bored after everyone else left or crashed out after a house party.
From memory, I was NTA.
AITA, TIFU, and all those other "confession" subreddits were all creative writing subreddits anyways. It would be more shocking to find out one of the top upvoted posts there was actually real.
What sucks is that TIFU was decent before people started doing it... Malicious compliance started to decay at that level too in the last year or two
AITA for posting a fake story to AITA
NTA.
I’d be more shocked if someone told me their AITA post was 100% real lol
I once found my brother-in-law on Reddit because he posted a picture I recognized. I went to his post history to check if it was actually him and it was but he had posted a completely fake story to r/legaladvice. It was something about his landlord removing the door to the apartment to try and get rent or something. But my bil lived in a house he owned. It also wasn’t an old story he was repurposing either because I have known him since he moved out of his parents house. I never mentioned it or anything because I don’t care.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
