There’s oversharing—and then there’s whatever these people were doing.
Redditors opened up about the most off-the-wall things they’ve ever heard someone casually admit, and honestly, some of these should’ve stayed locked in the vault forever. But they didn’t, and now they live online for the rest of us to be horrified (and slightly entertained) by. So here we are, doing our part by passing them along.
Scroll down for the most jaw-dropping moments of casual chaos. No promises you’ll come out unchanged.

An older man started chatting to me on the bus, strangers tend to start talking to me although I’m shy, my face must look too friendly, and he ended up telling me he had once gone to prison for k****g a man. It was one punch manslaughter, so not premeditated but he complained about it like he was the victim because it was over for the other guy but he still had to serve a sentence, so I didn’t feel sympathetic. Suddenly remembered I needed to get off at the next stop! I was anxious about taking public transport for a while after that.

I was in a fancy coffee shop in Mayfair last year where a lot of the clientele are custom suited gentlemen. Behind me there were a pair: a younger guy and an older one who I guessed could be his mentor for work or career etc? Anyway the older guy comes in, very posh and polite, sorry you had to wait for me, the usual chit chat. When asked how he's doing he said, "oh, you know, busy weekend, my girlfriend fell of a horse and broke her back, so had to get to the hospital etc. Might be paralysed for life, doctors aren't sure yet. Anyway, lets crack on, about your investment portfolio draft...". It was the nonchalant attitude and the way he brushed off a life-changing event that stayed with me. Also I can't imagine my husband would go to work (or do other non-urgent business) the next day if something like that were to happen to me...

One summer in high school, I worked in a kitchen that ran a vocational program to help ex-cons learn a trade. I was one of two high school kids hired to help out, me and this girl. The people running the program didn’t want her around the ex-cons, so she worked the front cash box while I was in the back making food with the guys. I got along with most of them and we usually had a good time.
There was one guy who mostly kept to himself and made the soup of the day. Everyone knew he had anger issues. He’d blow up over the tiniest things, like disagreeing with the chef about how to prep the soup. One day, he started slamming ladles and pots around because he was [angry] at the chef for some reason or another, so chef sent him up front to work the register. The girl came back to work with us, then about 20 minutes later, the vocational staff freaked out about that (I guess he couldn't be around cash), and told him to go back to the kitchen.
When he came back, he was talking about the voc staff being a piece of s**t and casually mentioned that he’d k****d someone before and wouldn’t hesitate to do it again. I was just standing there like, what the h**l, trying not to panic while he looked at me with crazy eyes. I legit thought he might snap and go postal. He never did anything, but after that, I made it a point to steer way clear of him.

I have a really good friend that has terrible relationship anxieties and fear of being alone basically- she admitted to me several times, over the course of different relationships, that she was ready to move on from the relationship but xyz holiday or birthday was coming up so she’d wait for that to come and go- AND once she let a man fully finish helping her remodel her kitchen before breaking up. Really made me look at her differently and I’ve kept my distance since that admission. Really gross.
