‘Chocolate milk doesn’t come from brown cows’
35 of the Funniest ‘Life Is Fake’ Realizations People Had

There are plenty of things that seem to defy basic logic and challenge our deductive reasoning to a baffling degree. Finding out that not all of the Village People were gay, for example, feels like the curtain being pulled back to reveal that everything we believe to be true is a total lie. 

Along those lines, Redditors have mourned the most underwhelming reveals that made them feel like their lives were fake, and honestly, chocolate milk should come from brown cows.

derpettasaurusrex 12y ago When I was a wee lass, my family went to a restaurant. We ordered our food and waited. I was bored after a good while. I had heard legends of a magical room called a restroom. I imagined it was a room full of couches and beds, where one could rest before getting a meal. After I begged, my mom brought me to the restroom. I was severely upset to find out that it was just a room full of a bunch of toilets. 53 ...

schrute_buck 12y ago I saw an article a few years back about a religious group in Florida trying to run BangBus out of their town. The article mentioned that they were a professional company, using professional talent who had been screened/tested, and got permits to film and did so in out of the way places with window tint that protected them from public view. So there was nothing the law could do. I was 24 at the time, and on some level I already knew all of this, but finally seeing it spelled out in undeniable truth, devastated me. 492

Draptor 12y ago When I was 7 I finally learned that professional sports teams can recruit from outside their own city. Every sport lost a lot of charm after that. What was the point of rooting for any particular team when they could just get the best guys from around the world? That could be the reason I barely care about manly things like football, aside from watching the local game with friends by chance. 1K ...
Obieousmaximus 12y ago I ordered sea monkeys and they didn't look like the picture in the back of the magazine. I was expecting little smiling creatures that played together and sang happy songs.

Eventually I realized that lots of people were just making a go at it as best they could, with some people finding true love, some people trying to convince themselves, and some people in downright awful situations. It just made me depressed. 936 ...

Bad_Fruit 12y ago I'm dating myself here, but as a little kid- --probably age 4--- I used to watch Combat with my brothers. Every week, a bunch of guys got killed in some major WW2 battle. I would think it was weird that they would kill people just to make a show. Then one time, I cried really hard because my favorite guy got killed. That's when my brothers laughed at me and said that it was all fake. That shocked me more than thinking that they were really killing people. 1.4K ...
