Everyone likes to think that they’re pretty smart and at the top of their game all the time, but the truth is, we all do and say some pretty dumb things sometimes. Like eating an entire bucket of KFC or looking everywhere for our glasses while we’re wearing them (true story). However, sometimes people mess up so badly that they end up on the internet when it looks like brain.exe stopped working for them.
Most of us know that embarrassing memories of dumb stuff that we did back in school/work/last Monday tend to resurface at the worst possible moments. So to make you feel better about yourself, Bored Panda has collected a list of some awesomely dumb things that people have said and done.
There’s nothing like other people messing up to make us forget all of our mistakes for a moment, right, dear Pandas? Scroll down, upvote your fave pics, and if you feel brave, let us know what the stupidest things you’ve ever done were! You can check out our earlier articles about stupid people doing stupid stuff here and here. Oh, and here's the coronavirus edition of dumb people acting dumb.

There are two kinds of stupidity. The kind where we don’t know that we’re being stupid. And the type where we definitely know but don’t want to stop. No matter how important and wise we might be, we’ll still make mistakes.
But there are reasons why human beings do stupid things, even if we’re aware that what we’re doing is wrong.
There are two kinds of pleasure. The first one that some call ‘liking’ is happy satisfaction that we get from eating a good meal, having a drink of water after a fun game of basketball, or getting a hug from a friend you haven’t seen in ages. Simple, wholesome things that make life wonderful.

Why Korean Man Make Korean Movie
The second kind of pleasure, ‘wanting,’ is associated with thrills and desire. It’s the second kind of pleasure that makes us do stupid things that can have lots of negative consequences.
Sometimes, we say, “Damn the consequences” and do something small that’s stupid; no real harm done, right? Wrong. This can have a snowball effect and we’ll start doing dumber and dumber things. The next thing you know, we might end up on the internet before our brain.exe could reboot and save the day.

Done it. Skip F to H, nothing exciting happens.
Load More Replies...My grandfather knew a guy in Chicago who had a friend in Gary, Indiana (right across the state line from Chicago). The friend was about to move to Illinois – SOUTHERN Illinois, over 300 miles away from Chicago. The guy was overjoyed. He thought that since his friend was moving to Illinois, they would be living in the same state, and therefore would be living closer together! People tried to explain to the guy that they would be living farther apart, but he never got it, was unable to understand the concept.
I’ve been asked if the country I’m from celebrates 4th of July. When I said no they said “oh so you don’t celebrate New Years either.” I was confused. I’ve also been asked numerous times what someone’s name means in my language in response I ask them what my name means in English and they say it doesn’t mean anything. So why would theirs mean something in mine.
