We’ve all been through a tough breakup. They’re just one of life’s small displeasures. Some are easy, and some are hard, with shouting, crying, and a heap of regret involved. The best-case scenario is that the two parties can stay on good terms, but that usually isn’t the case. Today we’ll be looking at a list of absolutely insane breakup messages delivered in spectacular fashion, either because of their wording, or method of delivery.
Weve Got The Most Insane Break Up Messages Youve Ever Seen
A Bitter Taste
Everyone loves cake, don’t they? They’re often used to celebrate things like birthdays, weddings, etc, but they can also be used to deliver a message. On Valentine’s Day, it could be a sweet one, but unfortunately for the person who received this one, the opposite was true. They were told in no abstract terms that there, now former, partner was moving to the other side of the world… without them! Hey, at least it’s tasty.
A Bitter Taste
The Dump Knight
If you’re going to break up with someone, what do you do? Spend time rehearsing what you’ll say? Prepare mentally? Steel your nerves? Not if you’re this person. They took the advice of Nathan from the superhero show Misfits, and used a superhero quote to break the bad news! The line, in particular, was from the Dark Knight that foreshadowed the picturesque final scene in the trilogy. This guy is certainly no suave Bruce Wayne.
The Dump Knight
Read Carefully
This one is what we’d call a sucker punch. Get this, someone receives the text “ily”. Now they ask the other to “spell it out” thinking it means “I love you”, which it usually does, but not in this case. That’s when the other person hits them with the complete opposite “I’m leaving you”. Couples should be on the same wavelength, but they weren’t in this case… So maybe the breakup was for the best.
Read Carefully
All Lit Up
Breakups are often just between the two involved. It’s kept quiet to save everyone the embarrassment that could follow. Of course, sometimes they’re bold declarations. The aggrieved party here actually splashed the cash to have a billboard raised announcing their breakup. Emily didn’t bear all the burden though, she paid for it out of their joint bank account. It’s enough to make anyone reconsider the idea of getting married. At least we got a laugh.
All Lit Up
Shutdown
Sometimes it’s best to keep a breakup professional. That’s what this person did… in a manner of speaking. They actually changed their shop’s storefront to announce that not only were they breaking up with “Paul”, but they were keeping the dog too. Something tells us that he won’t be going to any beat poetry evenings there anytime soon. We only hope that their dog is doing well at least. That would be something at least.
Shutdown
A Secret Code
Is there any greater expression of love than poetry? Writing, whether prose or verse, can be a great way to speak to your lover’s soul. However, it can also be a great way to tell them to get lost. The piece above starts off sweet but then becomes bitter as it reveals its true purpose, to dump Erin in a startling fashion. We must say, everything else aside, we respect it for its dramatic execution.
A Secret Code
The Classic
Now, this is an example of a classic burn. One shares their fear of a break up, the other plays at relieving their fear, but then makes it a reality! But hey, it does look like the victim had some advanced warning, but we’ll admit that maybe it was a little cruel. We wonder if “Will” would have actually gone through with it if he wasn’t confronted, or perhaps he was waiting for this moment…
The Classic
Valentines Day Deluge
Look, there’s a good chance that Dan got what was coming to him, and deserved it too, but could Laura have maybe done it without interfering with civil assets? Come on, people need to see those traffic signs. That said, this “Gary” better watch his back. If he messes up he’ll be the next one with his name lit up, and then we’ll all be stuck in traffic. We recommend Laura buy some good paper.
Valentines Day Deluge
A Ride To Remember
We’ve seen some complicated breakup messages, in fact, it looks like some people put more effort into them than their actual relationships, but this next one is special. This one is a wild ride, that’s for sure. Jennifer and every other commuter were set up for a big drop. We only hope that Jennifer at least deserved it and that no accidents were caused. We think their relationship was a mess enough on its own.
A Ride To Remember
Watch Out
Now, this is revenge. Not only did this wife break up with her cheating husband, but she also ensured he’d never be able to go outside in their neighborhood again. We imagine the small talk between him and his neighbors would be even smaller after they got a load of this message. Not only did she do it in a bold fashion, she put in a lot of effort. A banner costs time and money.
Watch Out
The Moon Hits Your Eye
Here’s another tasty breakup message. You can cut a slice, but this time it’s not a cake, it’s a pizza pie! The internet has a couple of shots of messages in pizza boxes, but none like this. We hope the person who got this at least had a slice. The relationship is over, no use letting a good pizza go to waste. We wonder if the parlor that made the pizza offers a vengeance add-on.
The Moon Hits Your Eye
Decide
Anyone else remember passing around cute “check the box” notes in junior high? Well, this is like that except instead of starting a relationship, it’s ending one. The person can decide how to be broken up with, but does it really matter? The ultimate decision has already been made, everything else was just to add salt to the wound. They probably wish there was a fourth option at the end for “none of the above”.
Decide
One Month Anniversary
Sometimes the best things in life are short and sweet. Looking at the handwriting, we can only guess that this particular couple was quite young. We won’t critique the method though, Delandren was a lot nicer and more level-headed than a lot of the older people on this list. Hopefully, Krystal has a lot of happy anniversaries in her future. Given that it was so short-lived, this one really can’t sting that much.
One Month Anniversary
Reflecting
After a relationship, it’s good to take time to reflect. The person getting dumped here had that process streamlined, as their mirror was used to deliver the message. It had the added benefit for the dumper to force them to see their own look of horror as they realized what was going on. Hopefully, they don’t develop a phobia of mirrors, they can be spooky enough as it. Lipstick is easy to clean at least.
Reflecting
Monkey’s Paw
They say that rubbing a monkey’s paw will grant you a wish, but the result won’t be what you expect! In the case above the person was told their partner’s wish, and in that same moment discovered they weren’t on the same page. It’s probably because of their wish that it ended this way. They are only teenagers and one of them is already thinking about marriage and kids. That’s a lot to take in.
Monkeys Paw
Nice Try
Guys have a knack for making a quick getaway, especially where their partners are involved. An unwanted pregnancy is just the thing to activate a flight response, and that’s just what happened here. This man believed himself to be making a clean getaway if only his messy grammar hadn’t tripped him up. When challenged he sarcastically corrected his previous message, giving up the game but making his feelings clear. Now that’s some solid arrogance alright.
Nice Try
The Betrayer
Now, this is a strange one. The husband was texting his mistress to break up but accidentally messaged his wife. She responded as one might expect, but the husband pointed out he had the wrong person. The funny part is that his wife shrugged it off, before realizing what the message meant after a double take. Hubby might want to hold off on that breakup, something tells us he’ll need a place to sleep tonight.
The Betrayer
Getting Schooled
A break up by text is awkward enough, never mind autocorrect butting in and making things worse. People often use humor to try and diffuse tension, and it appears that’s what happened. All that aside, like a 2D shape this relationship has definitely fallen flat. If you’re ever going to break up over text, make sure to proofread before hitting send. You don’t want the poor reader to mistakenly think there’s still a small chance.
Getting Schooled
Social Media Slight
At least from what we’ve seen so far, everyone has put in the effort to tell their ex it’s over. That wasn’t the case here. This time the dumper simply set their Facebook status to single, leaving their partner to find out that way. It’s brutal, but hey, it’s at least efficient. Of course, it happening publicly like this is sure to burn, but at least Katlyn got a couple of likes out of it.
Social Media Slight
Far Out
There’s breaking up with someone, and then there’s getting broken up with. The dumpee in this case took the message literally and bombarded the dumper with pictures of space. Now we don’t know whether they were just unphased, or if they were trying to rebuff the break up. Either way many on the internet got a chuckle out of it, and the too involved are now immortalized online. It’s sort of a win-win scenario really.
Far Out
Point Made
Teenagers are still figuring things out, like Joey over here. He was told point-blank it’s over but tried to use the fact that she bought him a coffee as proof of her love. It’s not that deep, Joey. Hopefully, the next person who takes Joey’s interest doesn’t give him a snack, because he’ll probably think that means the marriage is a few short weeks away. The best-case scenario is that he learned something.
Point Made
Now That’s “Ruff”
Dogs have the uncanny ability to sniff out a bad egg. If dogs don’t take a liking to you, you may want to do some introspection. That said, we do feel kind of sorry for this guy. Getting broken up with is bad enough, but losing a dog’s love is even worse. Mark wasn’t messing around with this one, dashing off ASAP. Maybe in the meantime, Brenda should get a cat. They hate everyone equally.
Now Thats Ruff
Modern Hieroglyphs
Emojis are a language all their own. They differ from region to region, but it’s pretty easy to interpret what someone means by using them. The person in this one used them to perfectly explain that they were breaking up. They even confirmed it with emojis too. That’s pretty hardcore, and kind of a big indication that they never took the relationship too seriously. It’d really take anyone a good while to recover from that.
Modern Hieroglyphs
Soundtrack
Folks really are innovating when it comes to breakups. Take this one for example. This person used a collection of song titles in a specific order to tell their partner that they were done. It’s the opposite of a lovesick mixtape. What’s more damaging is that after breakups people often turn to sad music, but that retreat has obviously been soured for the poor guy with this method. Maybe some heavy metal would be better.
Soundtrack
Join In
Now this one is just plain old nasty. The dumper got the dumpee to play along with the break up, starting things off with a classic rhyme and then ending it with a vicious breakup. It’s fine if you want to break up with someone, but do you have to go out of your way to hurt them too? It’s a cool rhyme though. Maybe Hallmark can start a line of cards meant for breakups.

Deserved It
If you poke fun at your partner too much, don’t be surprised if you end up as the butt of the joke by being dumped. We respect the magician involved. They had the deception part down well by pretending their partner was ever funny. So you better appreciate your partner and cool it with the jabs, otherwise, you may be the one getting knocked out. Let’s take a look at some more text-based breakups.
Deserved It
Denied
This is what we call a power move. One tries to break up with the other and is just straight up denied. Some relationships involve a controlling partner, and it’s safe to say that this is one of those. Maybe they should try a subtler approach next time. We wonder if they ever figured a way out of it, or if perhaps they are still together to this day… That is a very scary thought.
Denied
Leave A Note
Breakups don’t require a reason. Sometimes it’s just over. There’s a short and sweet way to conduct a breakup like that, like this person did, with a simple yellow sticky note, and just one sentence. No room for interpretation here. One benefit of this strategy is leaving no room for the other to try and negotiate. It’s a straight-up goodbye, see you never. It may be pretty harsh, but it certainly gets good results.
Leave A Note
Not The Car
Some of the best breakups involve the destruction of property. Now we don’t condone it at all, but when the partner cheated, well let’s just say we’re willing to look the other way. The cheater in this case was shamed with a message spray-painted on the side of their shiny car. If you’re not happy with your partner, just end the relationship, don’t cheat. Otherwise, you totally deserve what’s coming to you, and your car…
Not The Car
Steamy
This one brings new meaning to “bitter breakup”. However, few things are as good as coffee, so this person had their work cut out for them. We appreciate the quality of this breakup. It’s not exactly mean, it’s just straight to the point, and obviously took a little while to put together, so you know the person wasn’t being rash. If you’re contemplating a break up, this is most definitely a good kind of creativity.
Steamy
Keying Out
The dumper in this case seems as if they were just totally over it. In order to “spell out” that it’s over, they ripped apart the dumpee’s keyboard to let them know they hate them and then left the house key and their wedding ring to punctuate the point. Now we get it, this person probably deserved it, but did they have to involve the keyboard?! That’s our bread and butter after all! For shame!
Keying Out
Discount Dump
Yard sales are a great way to pick up a few good deals, and if you’re slick maybe you can work out a few discounts. Well in this case the wife was a little too slick for her own good and got caught cheating. The aggrieved husband decided to end things and make a little money for the road too. Can you imagine the look on her face when she realized what was going on?
Discount Dump
Let’s Celebrate
Boy, looks like cakes sure are a popular way to break up. This one is a lovely-looking red velvet, but that only makes the message all the more painful. We wonder if the baker was conflicted about this creation. We don’t know if this cake was for the dumper to celebrate, or to let the dumpee know, but looking at the quality, we’ll guess it’s the former. This actually gives us a business idea…
Lets Celebrate
Don’t Look Up
Jennifer definitely had fun with this one. She invested a lot of money into finding out about her husband Michael’s cheating. When she had all the evidence she needed, she initiated the splendid coup de gracé and let him know about it on a billboard that parodies Mastercard. Michael’s cheating must have been something next level to cause a strong reaction like this. We hope that next time he’ll be a little more well-behaved.
Dont Look Up
Erased
Okay we’ll admit it, we all have a couple of photos with people we don’t get along with anymore. That’s just how life goes sometimes. You may look so good in a photo that you really don’t want to lose it, so you just crop the other person out of it. Unfortunately for this girl, she was the one being cut, and she hadn’t been told the relationship was over yet. Talk about glowing “down”.
Erased
“Sam”
If ever you get dumped, just know it could have been worse. You could have been left for “Sam”… We don’t know who that is but it sounds bad because Adam was left for “Sam”, and that fact was used to try and soften the blow. Looking at the grammar and spelling, we think Adam won this one. We’re sure he’ll find someone better. Whatever happened to “Sam” is another story. Good luck to them.
Sam
Yolo
Look at this, folks, we got ourselves another copycat over here. Although this one’s choice is definitely better than Batman, it’s still pretty insulting. Lover boy here used some Chris Brown lyrics to break things off. Chris Brown songs are supposed to inspire love, not the ending of it! The guy didn’t even have the decency to write them out, he actually just copy/pasted them. You can tell by the out-of-place capitalization.
Yolo
Got A Dollar
Now this one is kind of thoughtful in a way. Mary got rid of her car so that she and Jeff could share one. Very eco-friendly. The problem is though shortly after Jeff decided to leave her. He thought of everything though and wrote the breakup note on a dollar bill so she could take a bus home. We wonder if that dollar bill is still in circulation out there. Could be a cool souvenir.
Got A Dollar
Ya Broke
If your car’s ever dirty, some jokester may well write “clean me” on it. Dave could have only hoped to get such a message. Instead, he got a message calling him out on cheating and informing him that his joint bank account had been cleaned out. We don’t feel bad for him of course, as you should know by now we don’t look kindly on cheaters around here. Hopefully, Nikki is living her best life.
Ya Broke
Spooky Note
Okay, this one is a little creepy. We want to say that it’s just the person exaggerating, but something about the handwriting and child-like drawing is just… unnerving. Valerie must have done something really bad to draw a reaction like this. Still, we hope she’s okay, and that she understands she dodged a bullet here, or rather a blade. We’re not sure what would be scary, this letter coming after some warning signs or none.
Spooky Note
Cartoonish
We don’t think anyone saw this coming, not even Janet. Whoever “ZF” they certainly have a sense of humor, and were most certainly over Janet. Why else would they break up in such a “cartoonish” manner? “ZF” may have been confused, but they did a good job of making sure Janet was too, with this zany breakup cartoon. At least this drawing wasn’t one of Janet minus her head. We’ll take a silly breakup thanks.
Cartoonish
Live On Air
A classic part of any sports event is the “Kiss Cam”, except this time it was kind of the opposite. This bold woman called out her cheating ex live on TV. Ouch! But we can’t say he didn’t deserve it. We appreciate that the camera operator was willing to help. We at least hope that whichever team the cheater supported was winning, otherwise, this would be the icing on top of a very unsavory cake.
Live On Air
Friendly Advice
This one isn’t a breakup letter. Instead, it’s more of a “breakup recommendation”. This poor person spent a whole night having to listen to a couple argue loudly, so they decided they would give them some friendly advice and recommend they break up now. At least then everyone would get some peace and quiet, and hey, it seems like they’re headed in that direction anyway. They even signed it on behalf of the whole city.
Friendly Advice
Yaaas Queens
Mr. Frazer thought he had it all, twice over. What he didn’t expect was both of his girlfriends finding out about each other and then teaming up instead of fighting over him. They pooled their resources and publicly dumped him. This is a fine example of the rare, but juicy “double dump”. Maybe Frazer will be more careful next time or maybe he’ll just, you know, not cheat. Another well-deserved dumping of a cheater.
Yaaas Queens
Be More Obvious
We like a finely crafted breakup. The subtler the better. Unfortunately, some people just can’t take a hint. The person here was talking about how they aspire to famously “over” relationships, and the other just couldn’t figure out they were being broken up with. It must mean they really weren’t expecting it. Hopefully, the person being dumped was able to take it in their stride. The names mentioned are all doing well now after all.
Be More Obvious
Apply Yourself
We audibly sighed when we read this one. Even if the person was joking, we think a breakup was in order anyway, for the joke alone. Getting dumped by text is bad enough, but you could at least expect the other to put a little effort in. We hope the comedian learned from this one and will try a bit harder next time. We also hope the one who got dumped gets a better taste.
Apply Yourself
Pranked
Okay, by now you’re likely suspicious of any displays of affection, whether it be a cake or a poem, but this is something else. It’s one of those four-panel photo memes which are almost always cringed. This one is no exception, unfortunately. Whoever was the recipient of this message was, they probably feel better for it. The point of breaking up in spectacular fashion is to embarrass the other person, not yourself. Come on!
Pranked
What Do You Think?
This next one is not a breakup, rather it’s an attempt at one that misses its mark. The text sends the breakup message to the wrong number and then asks the person on the other end for breakup advice. Not surprising to be fair. If they can’t even get the number right, they sound like someone who would need their handheld. We wonder if the person on the other end gave them any advice.
What Do You Think
Yum, Chocolate
This big chocolate cake looks good enough to make someone forget they’re being broken up with. Maybe that’s the point? Yes, it’s another break-up cake, and this one is our favorite flavor too. All this talk about cake has got us hoping that if we’re ever broken up with, they do it with a cake. Given how popular these breakup cakes are, odds are good. Make it a double layer with some chocolate chips, please!
Yum Chocolate
Film Trivia
Other People was a “just okay” film, even though the critics didn’t like it much. That said, using the title of the film to break up with someone is pretty clever. It’s short, it’s to the point, and it’s pretty punchy. We’re not sure how the other person hadn’t heard of it before, but something tells us they won’t be wanting to watch it after this. Not that they’re missing much, except maybe their partner.
Film Trivia
Ripping The Band-Aid Off
Letting your partner know you’re thinking of them is a small sweet way to keep the heat on, but this time it was met with a cold shoulder. This person walked right into it when they shared the thought and were promptly told they were being dumped. It seems to us like the dumper was waiting for the chance to savagely dump their partner. If you weren’t paranoid enough, here’s more fuel for that fire.
Ripping The Band Aid Off
Bye Bye Einstein
This one concerns us a little. Was the person being dumped misspelling the old “Heisenberg special” or do they just have terrible grammar? We can’t say for sure, but it looks like Blue certainly had enough of “Ron” and said so in no uncertain terms. Either Ron had a sense of humor or the relationship wasn’t built on love. Whatever the case, let’s move on, we don’t like this one. Something doesn’t feel right here.
Bye Bye Einstein
Spoiler Alert
How sloppy does a guy have to be to spoil the fact that his friend is about to break up with his partner? Not to mention the fact that the friend hadn’t decided whether or not they were going through with it yet. It gives the person who received the news early time to plan at least. It’s impossible to know how they’ll respond. Play dumb and let it happen, or go on the offensive?
Spoiler Alert
Spoiler Alert II: The Sequel
Here’s another spoiled breakup, only this time the spoiler thought that it had already happened. The soon-to-be broken up responded pretty strongly in all-caps, in a state of panic. Unfortunately, we don’t know how this story ends, but we’re going to assume “not well”. If you ever hear of an impending breakup, maybe keep everything quiet until the news is in the public domain, otherwise, you could end up in a sticky situation.
Spoiler Alert
One Way Ticket
Ouch, this one is in poor taste. It reads like something a stereotypical meathead in a 90s comedy would use. Hopefully, the person sending it is still in their teens and has some growing up to do, otherwise, we fear it’s far too late for them. While Dumpsville sounds bad, if the texter of this message isn’t there, we’re sure the one who got dumped will be all too happy to take the forced vacation.
One Way Ticket
Shots Fired
Long-distance relationships are difficult for any to manage. In this case, the dumper just couldn’t do it, and unfortunately, they’re a cheater to boot. The cute stationery of the message does nothing to hint at its content. Asking for the photo back is strange. To get a little Sigmund Freud here, does it perhaps indicate a little narcissism? Whatever the case, we think Ricky is more likely to just throw it in the trash.
Shots Fired
Rebound
This one was a neat exchange of word play. Green got dumped but saw it coming, so they tried to rework the situation to win their partner back instantly, but it most likely didn’t work. If nothing else, Green seems pretty resilient, and so they’ll probably bounce back from this quickly. It’s just a shame that so much of their time was wasted on someone who doesn’t appreciate their quick wit. Good luck Green!
Rebound
The Details
Now, this breakup is a pedantic one. The dumper spent a lot of time compiling all the faults and listed them in the breakup letter just so everything was clear. We’re not sure what’s a bigger worry, the content of the list, or the fact that the person spent some much time and effort compiling it. After point three you’d think they’d just get it over with already. At least it was only one page.
The Details
Brand Disloyalty
Okay, we’ll be honest here, we’re not sure if this letter is addressed to the fast-food chain or if it’s a generic letter addressed to five different guys. Our money is on it being the burger joint. It’s a breakup alright, and a tragic one too. What could come between a woman and her restaurant except wanderlust? Ah, at least they’ll always have those midnight binge senses and the smell of grease on the wind.
Brand Disloyalty
She Knows What She Wants
This one is obviously written by a kid, just look at the writing, spelling, and content, but she may just be a little wise beyond her years. She clearly understands what makes a good relationship, and will settle for nothing less. In a couple years time she’ll have no problems in her love life as long as she keeps her head straight and focuses on the fundamentals. We’ll forgive whoever the letter was addressed to.
She Knows What She Wants
Early Morning Breakup
We’ve seen breakups using food, and we’ve seen breakup letters, but this is an ingenious combo, and it looks good too. Seriously, scroll past this on Instagram without reading it and you’ll double-tap it as a reflex. Breakfast in bed is normally a gesture of affection, but this time it was a sign that it was over. Did the broken up with partner end up eating? Breakfast is after all the most important meal.
Early Morning Breakup
Buzz Off
It looks like Samuel has been left for his lack of hair, and in a hotel at that. Something tells us this was a very short-lived relationship. Not only is the reason for the breakup extremely superficial, but the person who wrote the letter wasn’t even sure if they slipped it under the right door. It was probably a late night get together that they thought better of in the bright light of day.
Buzz Off
Shame Shame Shame
There are few things as inspiring as a community coming together. In this case, they did it to tell a certain rowdy couple that they should keep it down or better yet just break it off already. Whether they stayed together or not is anyone’s guess, but only the most stubborn couple would bear to live in the building after that. They either packed up their things together or in separate boxes, and ventured off.
Shame Shame Shame
Bad Review
Keenen got a critical review for his troubles, in the form of a breakup. The young man was told in plain language that try as he might, he just couldn’t make the dumper laugh, and for that reason, she’s out. If nothing else Keenen will learn from this and either get better material or find a more fitting strategy for the dating game as he grows up. Good luck little guy, go and get ’em.
Bad Review
Public Service Announcement
Hey,this is a new one, or should we say “old” one? Back before Twitter, the only way to get a short personal message out there was to post it in the “Classifieds” section of the local paper. That’s what this dumper did to get Kevin to take a hike. Hopefully, he took the hint and moved on. Who knows, perhaps just a line or two up there was someone looking for a new boyfriend!
Public Service Announcement
Are You Thinking What I’m Thinking?
As we’ve said before, to be in a working relationship, you have to be on the same wavelength. That’s certainly not what happened here and well, just look at how that turned out. One wanted to get married and the other wanted to get out of dodge. Perhaps it’s best to have conversations like this in person. Texting is cool and all but it can be a little bit difficult to feel out the “vibe”.
Are You Thinking What Im Thinking
Scavenger Dump
You’ve probably heard of a scavenger hunt, but have you ever heard of a scavenger dump? That’s what happened here. The woman involved found out her boyfriend was cheating, but instead of breaking some of his stuff, she hid it in places from their relationship’s history. To reclaim his lost possessions he’d have to think back. Should be no problem if he was invested, and if he wasn’t, well, he certainly got what he deserved.
Scavenger Dump
Digital Divorce
This “breakup note” is unique in that the relationship never happened – it was all dreamed up by this odd online dating site user. There are plenty of things that could’ve gone wrong with this potential romance. Thankfully, they never even met! Be careful with who you trust in the online world (and real one too). You never know who is actually sitting behind the screen, or who will arrive at your obscure date location when you agree to finally meet in person.
Digital Divorce
Growing Weary
Part of any good relationship is passion and excitement. If the flame dies then things turn cold and people drift apart. This person clearly had enough but decided to end things on a high with a short funny note to declare that they were over. They say that brevity is the soul of wit, and so in this case we’ll dub the writer “witty”. If only every breakup could be so easy, don’t you think?
Growing Weary
Feigned Effort
Here’s another comedian, but we’ll admit that this one is kind of funny. The dumper sets up the joke and then uses the punchline to dump the other person. They likely weren’t laughing, but a little bit of sugar helps the medicine go down. In this case, the medicine is a breakup, which is the antidote to a toxic situation. Maybe in the future, they’ll look back on this and laugh as friends… maybe not.
Feigned Effort
