Twitter users are sharing stories of their luckiest and unluckiest and plain old strange life moments. Sometimes, it can really start to feel like the universe is either pulling for you in a big way, or doing everything it can to complicate your attempt at a peaceful existence.

Who'd have thought that learning German in secret could end up inspiring such hilarious results. Apparently, this kid had learned German and the parents had no idea.

Someone on AskReddit asked for lawyers to share their biggest surprises when it came to what was legal/illegal, upon going through law school and learning the ins and outs of the justice system.
