The collection down below might be the funniest thing I have ever set my eyes on, and that says a lot.

Last night I was scrolling through TikTok, as one does right before going to sleep, and I came across this lady who shared an email she sent out to someone at work, in which she made a grave (and hilarious) mistake. 

The video itself was funny, but I've seen my fair share of funny internet moments, enough to recognize when a funny post might have an even funnier comment section, and boy was I right. Scrolling through this video's comment section might have been the best decision I have ever made because I genuinely do not think I have ever laughed that hard in my life. Even now, after reading each one a few times, I still find it hard to stop myself from giggling at my screen.

Thousands of people shared the most hysterical accidental emails they once sent, and they did not disappoint.

    Velcroginger In response to a student, I wrote "Do you think" and accidentally sent it. No other words. I was responding to their inquiry about their (failing) grade.

    ZipperMoon My favorite email I ever got was from my boss. It was in 1 mm size font and it said I don't know how my font is so small I can't correct it. It's been five years and I'm still laughing.
