Teen Breaks Up With A Guy Over DM Using A Brutal 'Knock Knock' Joke For The Ages 😵

Ever been ghosted on a chat app? You thought things were going swimmingly during a conversation until suddenly, you've found yourself having a one-sided convo. Was it something you said?

That's what happened to 19-year-old Alyshah Mehdi when she was inexplicably abandoned on Snapchat by "close" friend Shayyan.

But she refused to be ignored.


The teen from Karachi, Pakistan, told Buzzfeed the two had "some beef" between them, and when he stopped responding to her chats, she punk'd him in the most brutal, yet humorous way possible.

She found Shayyan's Twitter handle and made him come to grips with reality.

Shayyan was a good sport about being blocked. He took a screenshot of his dismissal and posted it on Twitter; his DM soon went viral, garnering over 7,500 likes.


Alyshah told Buzzfeed:

The way things took a turn was very unexpected. He was low-key pissed after I blocked him, but then we laughed about it when we saw how people were reacting.

Based on her comment, something tells us they've patched things up.

People loved it, too:








The blocking technique inspired others to attempt the same, but not all were as successful.






Others weren't familiar with "knock-knock" jokes, though. (Who are these people?!)




For the uninitiated:



Shayyan told Alyshah that being blocked "never felt so funny," indicating the pair are talking again. Buzzfeed updated readers by letting them know she has since unblocked Shayyan.

But if love is an open door, he's not entering. According to Alyshah, the dude hasn't followed her back on Twitter.

People Share Purchases Under $20 That Made Their Lives Way Easier

Sometimes, in an effort to improve our lives in some capacity requires us to make a significant dent in our bank account.

Even though it might be yogurt for dinner for a few weeks after, we still feel good about our expensive purchases when we see the difference a high-powered washing machine makes, or feel the cool air from our upgraded air conditioner.

Man Goes Viral After 3D-Printing A 6-Pound Phone Case To Combat Screen Addiction

Many Millennials will remember back in the nineties as the last of the "latchkey kids" who were prominently babysat by their televisions, and the commercials that rolled out, made popular on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, promoting kids to go play outside instead of watching TV all day.

Now in 2025, videos on Instagram and TikTok encouraging people to "pause their scroll" and to "put down their phones" are becoming more common and popular, because people are realizing how detrimental our increasing screen time is to our emotional, physical, and psychological health.

Woman Sparks Heated Debate After Encouraging People To Smile At Walmart Greeters

There's an old saying that goes, "It costs nothing to be kind."

Smiling at a stranger, saying hi back to a young and socialable child, holding a door for someone, and maybe even exchanging a pleasantry or two at the checkout line costs nothing more than a few words passing our lips and showing a little kindness.
