Okay, you know how in a romantic comedy when the main characters have a meet-cute to introduce themselves to each other? Her hat blows over to him while he’s playing with his adorable dog at the park, or he steals her taxi cab when they’re both running late to work. That is the exact opposite of what this story is.
This thread feels like the modern day How I Met Your Mother. We’re going to start from the beginning of a “ridiculous but ENTIRELY TRUE” story that was shared on Twitter by author @sixthformpoet, so make sure you buckle up.
The Origin Story
This one tweet started us all on the journey of what can only be described as a truly wild ride. We’ll be focusing on the first part of the story, but highly recommend you check out the full three parts because it’s definitely going to be made into a movie that you can say you saw first.

Part one of the story starts off in a cemetery after Matt (@sixthformpoet)’s dad passed away which is, as Matt says, a “classic start to a funny story.”
