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.

You’ve Never Seen A Pink Lion?
Snagglepuss on the other hand was a pink lion. A pink mountain lion to be exact. Exit, stage left.
I just did the voice in my head. Childhood memories came FLOODING back!!

Actually, a lion is a kind of panther, as all big cats are ... pantera XYZ ... tigris for tiger and so on...
I was just going to comment the same thing. Technically a panther is not a species of cat but an archaic alternative word for all big cats (pan-thera aka hunts-all). In modern times we only apply it to black big cats, but they can be leopards or jaguars.

True, but the cougars in my area are known colloquially as the Florida Panther, so the term itself is out there.

Customer: "What is the Soup du Jour?" Waiter: "That's the Soup of the Day."
There is actually no such thing as a Panther. The word Panther is a Corruption of Panthera which is the Genus of 5 Big Cats, Lions, Tigers, Jaguars, Leopards and Snow Leopards. Cheetahs are not Panthera. I assume the Pink Panther in a Leopard. It's a terrific conversation tho' I can imagine the partner starting to froth at the mouth.
The answer is YES. Panthera is the cat genus which includes tigers, lions, leopards. What is called a Black Panther is really just a black leopard .
A panther belongs actually to the subfamily Pantherinae, to which the lions belong, too.
This is the first thing I saw getting up this morning and I cannot stop laughing at this one.
It's like there's a blockage, a brain that can't expand or even imagine!
The other person is not wrong.. panther is not one animal but a cat genus to which lion is a member. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panthera https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantherinae
The last question only can be correctly answered "Yes in a certain light from a certain angle". Also, maybe he should join the Church of the Invisible Pink Unicorn to get meaning to his life.
Hi, guys. I´m George and I need your help to buy a handcam to our church. Could you help me? Why am I asking it? Because: •In Brazil, its very very expensive, costing around R$ 3000.00. •Our minimum wage is R$ 1045.00 per month (44hrs/week). •$ 1.00 is almost R$ 5.50. •One handcam costs in USA or EU around 300 dollars or euros, while here is almost R$ 3000 (3x minimum wage). I frequent a Baptist church with no $ condition to buy one. Because this pandemic, we are recording our worships to post it in Facebook (facebook.com/ibjcrn) and YouTube (youtube.com/ibjcrn). The recording quality is not good because we are use cheep smartphones (see in the videos). We would like very much to acquire one handcam to improve the quality of ours videos. Could you please help us donating to our online fund at http://vaka.me/1009409? With a very few value, around $5.00 / $6.00 minimum (site’s minimum limit), we can reach our goal and make some better recording. God bless you all.
Perfect English until the word "cheep". Amazing. Would be easier to borrow a better smartphone. Pass.

I do believe "panthera" is the genus that encompasses most large felines (lions included). Pink Panther, even though fictional, is still a panther. He could be a young pink lion oooooooooor a pink lioness! Chew on that!
A LIONESS??? HE??? Think about that-take your time... but it will hurt.

Do They Actually Think Trump Is Using His Own Money
Pffffff like Trump has any money. The man has been bankrupt multiple times.
And Passports Too
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.

Who’s Gonna Tell Her
Well, she actually meant that she wanted the pope as father for her baby, but he refused
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.

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.
Some people choose stupidity, while others have stupidity thrust upon them. Either way, these people probably ate paint chips as kids. That didn't help matters.
I saw an ex-coworker after not seeing her for several years, and she asked me if I still had my tatoo...
Most of these have to be fake, I cannot believe people can really be this stupid. Please someone, restore my faith in humanity and tell me that most of these posts are fake.
Sorry. Been alive long enough to see enough stupid sh*t to know this is all possible. Some may be faked, but seriously, I had someone ask me once why I was on crutches. While I had a huge cast from knee to toes on one leg. Yep. They live among us. *sigh*

I'm so happy & proud to have been in a great school, in a great school district. I think the issue in America is that all education is not uniform across all school districts, in all cities, in all states. I hear that in many other countries, this is not the case, and their education is a lot more uniform. I live in Oak Park Illinois and I know a lot of people who are from a different town who are my age and have not had the same education. You need to realize that these people have had different qualities of education. I was also raised with no television and hardly any movies, way back before the internet was a common thing. I was encouraged to read books. I was also taught to self educate. Not everyone has the wherewithal to pick up a book or utilize the internet to self educate & how to think for themselves & question everything instead of just parroting what they're told.
Yeah sounds a lot like a few people I know. They think everything they see on Facebook is real news. And they don’t know how to think for themselves. Many have a set of beliefs and will believe anything and everything negative that goes against those beliefs and don’t question it regardless of how idiotic it seems.
