Remember when people thought access to the internet would make everyone so much smarter? More educated, way harder to manipulate? Fun times. Turns out, for all the good it’s done, human stupidity is just one of those things apparently no technology in the world will ever fix. Not even close.

To drive the point home, we’ve rounded up some of the dumbest Reddit posts shared online. Have a scroll and see for yourself. Just be ready for some serious secondhand embarrassment along the way.

    You are not the a*****e. In fact, you should begin putting googly eyes on things just outside the fridge and expand slowly over the next few weeks while feigning ignorance. You should even accuse the roommate of placing all the subsequent googlies in an attempt at retaliation. Slowly his grip on reality will slip and and he'll run screaming into the darkness of the night screaming "AT LEAST THE EYES IN THE DARK AREN'T GOOGLY!". That will teach him not to mess with someone else's cheese sticks.

    Look as far as Christian brainwashing kids shows go, from what I recall Veggie Tales was pretty funny and inoffensive.

    No, I believe unless you submitted it for copyright/made it clear it wasn't able to be redistributed without monetary compensation then you cannot sue. Also it's a meme, you didn't lose any money from the loss of upvotes. idk im not a lawyer, but also c'mon. its a meme.
