“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me” is one of the most incorrect sayings of all time. Idiotic opinions, fallacies, and outright untruths are all, unfortunately, broadcasted over the internet for everyone to see, meaning that all of us have to see, hear, and read the very worst words and ideas humans can put together.

The “Facepalm” internet group gathers all those moments when people really did or said something so unbelievable that it caused a visceral reaction to all onlookers. And through the magic of the internet, it can reach you too. So be sure to upvote your “favorites” and comment your thoughts below.

The oldest use of the word “facepalm” (but not the actual, physical action) dates back to the early days of the internet. In 1996, where the first netizens mentioned it in a variety of posts about everyday life. This points to the fact that this phrase was in the popular lexicon earlier, as the posters do not clarify what the word means and use it nonchalantly.

However, the actual post, of holding one’s face in your palm, is relatively old, and found in statues and sculptures going back hundreds, if not thousands of years. Normally, it was associated with more serious loss, like Henri Vidal’s Caïn, depicting the biblical figure mourning the death of his own brother, who he killed.

Due to the internet and the general ubiquity of this emotion, the facepalm remains popular, to such a degree that there is even a facepalm emoji (Unicode U+1F926) and a vast library of stock images depicting this action. While commonly reaction images of humans facepalming were used, one can now even find animals doing the gesture, most likely by accident, but it’s always fun to imagine a cat actually facepalming.

For those that see something not worth a full facepalm, as it is a bit dramatic at times, you can use the good old disappointed head shake, that one’s grandparents will tactically deploy when they see anything that confuses them. Over text, one can quickly and easily communicate their disappointment with the good old acronym smh (shaking my head) which is actually older than good old facepalm.

On the other hand, should one need to deploy stronger language, there is always the trusty face desk aka the head desk. While we do not recommend you actually do this, be sure to upvote the posts that go beyond a facepalm. This is a stronger emotion, one so visceral that the victim wants to physically bash the thing they just read or heard right out of their head.

The reality is that there have always been people who might cause us to facepalm. Bad decisions and horrible opinions are deeply human and probably existed before language. So it’s overall a net positive that we have methods to immediately “get it out of our system” when someone does something so deeply idiotic that it makes us feel bad by proxy. As long as we don’t facepalm too hard.

lucynyu13 Report

Similarly, while the internet allows us to see more facepalm-inducing moments, on the flip side, it lets us publicly shame people with ideas this bad and it communicates to others who might have similar ideas that in reality, they are wrong and should keep it to themselves. Someone is not a bad person for being wrong but sticking by an objectively terrible opinion even when presented with contrary evidence is pretty childish. If you want to keep facepalming, Bored Panda has got you covered, check out our other article on this topic here

There are definitely billions lost ever year in our defense budget. I don't think the pentagon has ever passed an audit. There have been studies showing how to cut billions in wasteful administration costs or billions spent on weapons plans without any actual product, expensive planes that don't work in areas we actually need them, and waste and fraud from government contractors. But I get what he's saying. Also didn't certain legislative choices create the issue with USPS not being able to earn its costs back? There have certainly been officials who've wanted to see it change to private ownership.

Based on the colors that is right audio channel (red), left audio channel (white) and composite video (yellow). Some game consoles and old VCRs used to use this and some devices still have the capability but it isn't used so much these days. You get much better video quality with component video - where the yellow video cable is actually three separate cables + the two audio channels for a total of 5. These days of course most folks are using HDMI. The 'stupid' part of the comment above is the back of the unit does not appear to have any colors to match to. I can't say for sure because on some units the color is on the separator ring between the positive and negative. Meaning you can only see it when the RCA cable is not plugged into the jack. The link below is a shutterstock photo that shows the color rings on the jacks I am talking about. Some items had them, some did not. https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/panel-connectors-connecting-audio-video-devices-2230488997

I think they were referring to the part where you had to balance the tv half on half off it's stand while you tried to find these a*s hole plug ins on a football field sized back of the tv while also not trying to drop said 200 pound tv, and they always change the white and yellow depending on brand. That's probably more what they were referring to. You obviously didn't have to use these otherwise you would know all this You child.

When I first got a PlayStation one, I didn’t know how to set it up at all, mostly because we didn’t have any TV or VCR with these kind of connectors. That was a hard thing to figure out without Internet.

Lmaooo yeah, true I never struggled with that. I failed some class in elementary school, but I did know my colors. Kinda feels like those Fs weren’t justified.

This is literally the same as the color matching toy my cousin's 3 year old has. It makes a good noise when the colors are put into the right hole and a bad noise when not. If you think this is hard, you're as smart as a toddler

I think you won't be able to fix these problems just through debt relief. As soon as there is more money on the paying end, the colleges will find ways to increase costs. It needs to be addressed on both ends.

Even if this were true, it's certainly not a flex on her part. Also, who gives a f**k what she eats but bravo to the guy calling her out...except I'm a little concerned he knows what she ate 10 years ago.

Hopefully, Costa Rica will attempt to recover some of the cost of this. Just short of bankrupting the family, no more. The French government would have no hesitation if the boot were on the other foot.

this really gets in my nerves, when my generation (z) or millennials are getting blamed for “killing the (blank) industry” when we’re literally just struggling to PAY OUR RENT. Do you ever think about how most, if not all of us will never be able to afford a house? Yeah. Your fault.

Honestly, I think she's in the right. Priests are not allowed to discuss anything shared in confession with anyone else. It's confidential between the you, the priest, and god.

The issue of signs and crosswalks being replaced with themed versions is about more then bigots dissaporoving. People with limited cognitive capacity can be very confused and lost when the signs and crosswalks change randomly. That can cause dangerous situations when they dont know if it is ok to cross or not. I would prefer pride flag or similar next to the crosswalk, not replacing it.

Using a paddle sends a powerful message to children. It tells them they you are not a good enough teacher to be able to use words to solve an issue. That you must resort to using physical strength to scare the student. And even then, you must use a tool because you lack the fortitude to do it yourself.
