Whether we're opening our mouths without thinking, have social anxiety, or are just trying to cut through an awkward silence, everyone is bound to say something foolish every once in a while.

So it should come as no surprise that when Reddit user AlgorithmOmega asked people on the platform to share the dumbest statements they've heard, the responses came pouring in, showcasing just how common and relatable these moments are.

30 Things People Said That Gave Away That They Are Not The Brightest Crayon In The Box I write software, had a boss with little technical knowledge for a bit.

He asked me to 'make the software do X or Y depending on what the user wanted when they clicked the button'. I asked what he meant, he got upset, told me it was simple. If the user wants X to happen when they click the button, do that! If they want Y to happen when they click the button, do that! At first I thought maybe he meant there was some other way to figure that out from context.. but no, ultimately he meant 'read the users mind and intent when they click the button'.

I was working for a contracting company and doing work for a hospital. I started off just hooking up and moving PCs. Really basic stuff that anyone who can walk and chew gum could figure out. And a lot of the people they hired had a hard time with that.

After the project was done the hospital realized I wasn't a moron and kept me around. I worked my way up to a system admin level job. And the contracting company had to cut my pay. I asked for a raise and explained to them how I was doing far more advanced work but I heard the stupidest thing I've ever been told.

My "boss" ( all he did was sign a check ) explained to me by getting a $2/hr pay cut I will be better off because I will be paying less taxes. I started off making $16/hr.

My contract ended a bit later and I got hired on directly and got a really nice raise.

This was probably for sleazy purposes, yes. However there are a lot of people who do not understand how income tax brackets work, or the difference between gross and net income, or the difference between income and wealth, or the difference between income and wages. May have had some interesting discussions recently about all of these with people who are older and richer (though that's not difficult) than me.

You can only get HPV if you sleep with many men. If you stick to 1 partner, you are not at risk and don’t need the vaccine.

Because the virus checks if you have reached your duck quotum yet, before it hops off and into your vagina. Of course. And you can’t get it through aaaaany other means.

I don't know how it is in other countries, but here women and girls have the HPV vaccine on vaccine schedules, while men and boys do not - they have to specifically request it. Given that infection can be spread between partners no matter what parts those they bonk have, and it can cause cancers in everyone, men and boys should have it on their vaccine schedules too, to protect themselves and others.

When I was playing WoW and every guild having their own forum was a thing, a guild member posted some photos of his kills from a hunt.

Now it’s important to say that at the time I didn’t have strong opinions on hunting, and this in particular is not the point of the stupid statement, but is the cause of it.

The whole guild of members made fun of him for killing defenseless animals to the point where he made the following comment, slightly paraphrased because it’s been 18 years:

“OH YEA WELL YOU GUYS THINK YOURE SO INNOCENT GOING IN AND KILLING RAGNAROS EVERY WEEK AND ALL OF THOSE RAID BOSSES?”

To be clear, he was comparing actually hunting a defenseless animal to killing bosses in a video game, and yes he was very serious.
