Twitter is one of the most fast-paced social media in existence nowadays. Facebook, Instagram, and other social media can’t even compare. According to statistics, there are millions of tweets sent out every millisecond. With such a fast-paced exchange of data, what you sent out now may become irrelevant several seconds later. That’s how fast tweets are being posted and shared on Twitter.
While most tweets come and go, there are some that become unbearably unforgettable. It is even more unforgettable when these tweets are actually overheard conversations. Here are some of the overheard tweets that will leave you speechless:
1. When your mom feels so alone she needs to ask another to be her friend…
Just overheard the occupational therapist asking my mum if there’s anything she can help with and my mum said “be my friend I don’t see anyone” and that’s broke my heart, my mum used to have so many friends and do so much and then she got ill

2. When you need to remind someone that a “thankless” job doesn’t have to be “thankless”…
Overheard today:
Colleague 1 "He has a thankless task".
Colleague 2 "Not if you thank him".— David Lettington (@davidlettington) July 3, 2018
3. When your mom is totally against the woman of your dreams…
today i overheard a customer telling a shop worker about how her mum will only let her go to a family wedding if she introduces her girlfriend as her ‘friend from work’. heart broken, so much for 20gayteen, bye x

6. Now, this is a straight pitch…

7. Taking things for granted now will make you regret it in the future…
Just overheard two teenage girls laugh hysterically together as they were coming up with what excuse to give their grandma so they could flake on the dinner she was making them tonight. One day they’ll regret that. Don’t take loved ones for granted.

8. Someone’s take on gun control in America…
I overheard someone say, ‘People are asking when will we have gun control? The honest answer is, when the shooter is a Black.’ #CapitalGazette
So sad. So real. ?

9. Priorities, please…
Overheard: “It’s so sad about Amanda’s dog passing away. I followed her dog on Instagram! I had to unfollow the dog after she died because there won’t be any new content.”
— Adam Rippon (@Adaripp) June 24, 2018
10. Again, priorities…
a conversation I overheard today:
“Did you hear Kate Spade hung herself with a scarf?”
“Oh wow! That’s so sad..”
“Yeah I wonder who designed the scarf.””

11. I can’t even…
It’s funny yet sad. Seen people buy food, take pictures with it and then throw it away. I’ve overheard people (talking loudly I might add) disinviting people to parties cause someone wanted “cute Instagram pictures” and the guest “doesn’t photograph well”. ????

12. Take care of your parents before it’s too late…
A friend overheard this comment by a resident of her father's senior living community: "It's sad when you don't have family, but it's worse when you don't and they don't come." #SadRealityOfManyOlderAdults

13. Chivalry’s NOT dead yet…
At work yesterday, overheard some guy ripping a girl because she didn’t want to go home with him. So I stepped in & told him to get tf out or I’ll make him. He left and the girl goes “That’s the kindest thing any guy has ever done for me”. An that is sad we gotta do better fellas

14. Parenting shouldn’t be like this…
Overheard at the resto:
parent: You don't try hard enough i'm really disappointed in you
to all parents, that is the last thing ur children would want to hear after saying that they tried they best. Saying something like this could be truly damaging to a child.
