Have you been personally victimized by a man (or woman) in your life? Are you looking to cope by laughing at your own pain? You're in the right place.
Paste the toxic text you've received below, and we'll give you an honest take (plus, we'll rate the level of tragedy out of ten 🥲).



What is the "Man Of The Year" Trend?
You've seen the trend on TikTok: people are posting their "Man of the Year" texts, which list the meanest or most toxic texts they've received, usually by a significant other. The trend involves a video where the user has the texts pasted and in the background, Lorde's song "Man of the Year" plays.
Though the fact that so many people have toxic texts to share is sad (and it goes without saying that you never deserve to be harassed by anyone; especially someone who supposedly cares about you), it is pretty fun that people are finding humor, lightness, and community by sharing their own troubling texts.
