People have all sorts of odd things in common. And just when you think that someone must have the market cornered on a seemingly out-of-the-ordinary behavior, Twitter is there to prove you wrong.

Such was the case for Twitterer Sara @SaraWThinks who shared a post last week showing how she used her dog to indicate the scale of a desk and chair her friend was selling.

Video Of Little Boy Sobbing After Finding Out Trump Is A Real Person Goes Viral—And We Totally Get It

Whether it was Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, or some other important facet of childhood, most of us found out when we were kids that something we loved did not exist, and it was absolutely devastating and world-changing.
